edit: Also I am glad for myself, I am what I am and that's beautiful.
]]>IDK, I never ever thought I'd feel this way, all my life I just felt exceedingly average, and its just giving me a bit of a high I guess.
]]>"Hey! You wanna go!" I entirely missed the tone and meaning of the statement and so responded
"Sure, where are we going? I was thinking Dairy Queen"
He and a couple friends of his started laughing then he kindly explained the meaning of the term "You wanna go" and then left me alone.
]]>The city the cop got killed in decide to do this like caravan thing as a way to show support for cops. I had the displeasure of being in the area at the time. It was gross, the turn out was massive.
Went swimming with kiddos today, the pool was warm, like warmest pool I've been in that wasn't a hot tub. It was really pleasant. Though I do still hate swimming in pools. Wore me out though, to go swimming, I'm beat.
Youngest has been copying everything we say, they really are learning to speak now. Earlier today I had hiccups (which mine sound like a bird squawking). Little one was following me around and trying to copy my hiccups. It was cute.
Coworker got fired recently. Was kind of a bummer, I mostly liked them (mostly). Saw it coming though.
Been telling folk tales from memory to my kiddo, its been good fun. She is real imaginative and often responds with a story of her own.
Oh also I have plans next weekend, that I am super looking forward too.
]]>me: I have plans
partner: so like you would decline an invitation to go do something to get drunk and talk to online people?
me: yeah, actually that has happened before.
partner bursts out laugh and continues in a mocking tone: "i have plans" "oh you do, what are your plans?" "oh i am going to get drunk on Sunday"
partner continues: I bet you have it on your calendar. It probably says Saturday: Take shower Sunday: get drunk
me: I mean, I dont keep a calendar but if I did it definitely would be on there.
partner loses it

Empedocles says that there was a time when separate limbs wandered around on their own:
From it [scil. the earth] blossomed many faces without necks,
Naked arms wandered about, bereft of shoulders,
And eyes roamed about alone, deprived of brows.
The wandering and straying suggest aimless and disorderly movements (and so, some influence of Strife). Then, however, these separate limbs combined in random ways to make fantastic creatures:
Many grew double of face and double of chest,
Races of man-prowed cattle, while others sprang up inversely,
Creatures of cattle-headed men, mixed here from men,
There creatures of women fitted with shadowy genitals.
]]>Anyway, I know, my life is pretty great.
]]>I could give details but nah!
All you need to know is my life is fucking great.
]]>I told her about my issues trusting her over past events and that up until very recently I had been considering moving out and completely ending my relationship but that I changed my mind and still want her in my life.
and I told her squarely I am trans and that I am considering hormones.
Which frankly is a whole fucking lot to pack into one conversation.
She has fears about a lot of it but she is taking me as is and I ain't going back to living under any kind of obligation ever again.
so yeah, we will see where things go from here!
]]>fuck that noise you liberal!
Like first off information/misinformation are just two sides of a coin, they can't exist without eachother. Like you so afraid of misinformation than abolish information. You can't get rid of misinformation by pumping out more information. Its like throwing gas on a fire and being shocked that it grows. Like bruh we are in the information age we are drowning in information, adding more information ain't gonna do nothing and because you value information so much is why misinformation is so dangerous to you. Like you set yourself up for this one.
But also I unironically think misinformation can be refreshing. Like a few weeks ago, at the behest of mastodon, I typed "Is Australia real?" into Bing and the answer Bing's AI returned to me was "No". Like fuck yeah! that rocks! Like fuck you, you ain't know nothing about Australia (I mean unless you do). Like some authority told you that it exists and you just believed but you ain't been there what do you know, you just mindlessly regurgitate the information you've been told is true.
