Finish him.

Because fashion is fun! (:

Things don’t always need to be practical.

I have a special needs bearded dragon. Special needs because he was born without scales. Also, unfortunately, he is now mostly blind.

He has given me more grey hairs in his 5 years on earth than my previous 30. His care requires multiple skincare products, aloe, etc. His diet requires me to keep bins of cockroaches which also require their own food and water. He also requires heat & UVB bulbs with separate fixtures, and has a specialty “herpstat” that can automatically time the lights, control temperatures, report on humidity, etc.

He is a pain to care for!

I love him so much. I do it all happily and he’s a wonderful, friendly, sweet, amazing companion.

Woo woo! Auditory Processing Disorder!

“Submit and get over it!” 🤡

“Pokémon the Trading Card Game” has such a genuinely good fucking soundtrack!

I swear I’ve seen concept art once upon a time… was it Disney? But I remember it looking so cute!

Gotta have that classic Konamix. Chicks dig it. 😎

jk don’t listen to me. I don’t anything about gettin’ anything. Lol But you’ll have fun, that I do know!

I’d love an animated “Cats” movie! It’d be soooo cute!!

A few years ago, I invited a guy over and we ended up playing DDR on PS1. I had the window shades drawn because I live next to a road, have large windows, and I don’t want strangers seeing me flail around like an elephant seal having a seizure.

My mother dropped by unexpectedly and I opened the door, red, panting, and sweaty, with a strange man on my couch who was trying to look casual.

Tried to blurt out that it was a misunderstanding, but she side-eyed me and left quickly.

At least she always texts me before she drops by now? I’m ace, so, for me, it’s particularly mortifying.

I have a body that no clothes will fit. A very dramatic hourglass shape. If I see something cute, it definitely will not fit me.

Nothing. Fucking. Fits.

The worst part is the bras. The fucking bras!!! Why are US bra sizes so fucked?? I literally only wear ill-fitting sports bras now!!! Otherwise my tits are squeezed or wire stabs me or every other pain.

I also have stupid sensitive skin & hypohydrosis, so rashes & heat exhaustion are things I need to think about when getting dressed.

Only to the dad.

Man. I’m a single mom. It be like that sometimes.

Not the whole “you need a man around”-thing. It’s a single-parent thing. It’s hard as fuck to do all the work yourself and not have someone to help out when you may be at your limit.

Not to mention single-parent households deal more with poverty, housing insecurity, poor mental health, overworking, etc.

I watched it happen to a lot of my friends growing up. It’s fucking rough.

It’s not every case, but it can be a lot.

Cute dinosaur shopkeeper sim with decorating & friendship mechanics.

Not a tech person. I’m a seamstress/tailor who will make you feel like the smartest person in the room when I ask questions about computers. Never knew so much about internet privacy before Lemmy, either. It’s been eye-opening to learn about tech-stuff on Lemmy!

I left R×ddit out of spite, then found out youtubers made videos reading out my posts and said goodbye to it forever. It became a free content farm ripe for mishandling, astroturfing, and paid propaganda.

My stubborn ass will learn something beyond simple navigation because I’m always wanting to skirt injustice and do what little I can to not support rampant capitalism (I have no money!)

I mean… I learned Blender. I’m capable of pretty much everything!

You want to feel like a knight? —visibly sweating—

The reason for the common cold being so prevalent in cold weather is because of the cold.

My theory is that cold temperatures best suit the incubation of the germs. You are especially susceptible at night, when you can’t control your breath enough to keep your nose/nostrils warm. Warm face/nose at night = you won’t catch a cold.

I’m absolutely convinced of this theory. I’ve tested ways to keep my face/nose warm at night, and it seems to test very solidly (and I get sick very very easily). Once my room gets too chilly, I’ll inevitably wake up with a cold.

EDIT: let me have the smallest conspiracy theory in the world, thank you.

Rude.
