Sientir 🌮🥰

Three things to know about me: 1. I routinely thank Jesus for vulvas and video games. 2. I try very hard to remember that most things we say are our subjective opinions. 3. I experience and communicate love through hugs, snuggles, and genuine compliments.

From birds to butterflies... I just signed up using the same username because I'm predictable. :)

🚨 Warning: Oxygen Low 🚨 The first teaser trailer for Subnautica 2 just dropped! Check it out now and wishlist the game on Steam, Epic, or Xbox ➡️ unknownworlds.com/en/news/subnau… #Subnautica #Subnautica2

@SaffronOlive It honestly sounds like legal boilerplate malarkey.

Having an NDA to keep people from sharing company secrets, upcoming cards and such is fine, but I couldn't even imagine signing something like this, regardless of the reward.

Having to sign a lifetime non-disparagement clause to be on the new Wizards Commander panel (basically the new RC/CAG) seems super over the top. The need for independent and critical voices is going to be more important than ever if this is how Wizards sets things up.

@NakedRei Pretty sure that's how this whole social media thing works, no?

I wish I could convince my Internet friends that my life isn't nearly as interesting as they imagine. I post the best 1% on social media and keep quiet about the rest.

@TaliaGraceSable I have a desire to eventually just start wearing wizard robes (more in the style of Gandalf). But the thing that sucks about being a man is men's fashion is basically just a scale of how much tuxedo/suit you're wearing. Women's fashion has so much more variety!

"Fake it til you make it" is a very expensive lifestyle. Most people don't make it. At least it tends to pay off for escorts! But even then—is this the game we want to be playing?

Wear white after labor day. Wear florals in the winter. Be free. It's a losing battle to try to keep up with byzantine and expensive signaling schemes for classes not worth being part of

@andraporterxo Same. Also, my dad would call that a theft-deterrent paint job!

I aspire to be this bold

For a glimpse at how online our lives are now, imagine how much we would freak out about the election of the CEO of Twitter or YouTube if those were things we could vote for.

@TaliaGraceSable What do your assistants do?

It's also a good at filtering out low value tasks: if it's not worth paying someone else $50/hr, it's not worth my time either (unless I really enjoy it) Now it's more automatic for me to work on higher-leverage stuff

I've been getting better at working with assistants. It's taken time to learn how to outsource effectively. And practice to trust that the right people will do things the right way It's sooo nice now to not do things I don't wanna doing, just because I don't feel like it

@Typpo8 You're the second person I've seen in my timeline mentioning something along these lines, and I've definitely missed the context.

Nobody lewds Pokemon like Nintendo

@AyliKatt Bwuh? o_O

Thanks I hate it 😹

I used to think I needed to find this higher calling, a grand God-given purpose for my life. The idea became somewhat of a trap, keeping me constantly striving & dissatisfied while also making me feel worthy when I felt I was fulfilling it but then guilty & ashamed when not.

@andraporterxo So...time to break out the teal bodypaint? :D

Please, teal me more…

@SpencrGreenberg I think I fit into Number 2, at least by inclination.

My personality-based theory of what makes people more likely to break rules and minor laws: 1) Low conscientiousness people break more rules because they see them as pointless or irrelevant 2) High openness people break more rules because they question the assumptions behind rules (and norms) and because they question authority figures 3) High extraversion people break more rules because they enjoy thrills, take more risks and are a bit more impulsive 4) Low agreeableness people break more rules because they're less concerned about the effects of their actions on others and care less about being judged by others 5) Higher neuroticism (and emotional stability) aren't predictive of rule-breaking

@nat1advice Gotta pretend you're one of the people! But it sounds like Pete rolled kinda low on his deception check...

It turns out putting scrabbled eggs on that salad was a very delicious idea! 😋

@maro254 Congratulations! :D Here's to more happy years. ^_^

Today is my 26th Anniversary with Lora. I’m so happy she said “yes” all those years ago. Three children, two houses later, she’s still the one I’m happy to wake up next to every morning.

Day 8. Jeweler #gobtober2024

Happy 30th Birthday to DOOM II!

@andraporterxo The Nudist community frequently talks about this kind of thing.

This! Kink/poly/swing/queer communities are absolutely THE biggest reason I am comfortable in my body. Not even 3 months of nut-to-butt living & showering with 40 women (boot camp) had that impact. Not Sexual Attitude Restructuring. Not feminist porn. Real, diverse people.

@MaryZoso I will say that I've come to see rules-based morality as fundamentally flawed. I now see (and am working on integrating into my being) an understanding of morality built around an orientation towards love. It's hard, though, because rules-based morality is the main type we know.

@MaryZoso Because Goodness is loving and compassionate, it would rather see people change and be filled with goodness than see them destroyed.

What if the whole KNOWLEDGE of good and evil being the Original “Sin”™️ is actually more of a recognition of How Things Are than a condemnation? What if it’s just pointing out that we as a species ARE GOING TO BE STRUGGLING for a long time with this dualistic good/bad idea and the struggle is going to cause us all sorts of problems and suffering until we learn (on both an individual level and a species level) that there is no Good or Bad. What if the whole point is for us to learn to let go of all that stuff and come out the other side accepting ourselves and each other and all of existence as Whole and Perfect exactly as we are?
