I was inspired by someone bragging the flag on protest and remembered I had one kicking around from when we bought our house. (We have usaa.) I did have to buy some of the ribbons because I didn't have any yellow and only a couple greens, most of which are 1/8. I have sequins on order to add sparkle

My dog hit 10 yrs last month, he had his "old man" vet visit. Many things he's very unhappy about happened to his butt. He gets to up his food & treats, so he's happy about that. Unfortunately, it's the the dreaded Everything Go Boom time. But he's going deaf & can't hear. He just won't go out.

I apparently cut it out but I meant that my friend loaned me the book and that she's sweet but hasn't deconstructed. So I knew I was gonna have issues with the book from the jump. Which I am. The author is white and writes like a white person that thinks "I'm an ally" and it's frustrating.
There is just something about white authors that think they are anti racist allies...I started a book a friend recommended and BOY... she's a sweet, but she has not done any active deconstruction beyond the basics. So I knew the book was gonna peeve, but I just gotta finish it and not read others.

"Yeah that's how it's supposed to read, if you had actually bothered to review(?) it." I think they mean it was supposed to read like a surprise pregnancy fic. But like. Dude. My point is that you still need to tag it. I never would've read it if I had known. Blocked and muted after I responded.
They responded and said they put a tag in the end note... because they didn't want to spoil the surprise the the main character/reader... what's the fucking point of that? You'd have to finish the fucking fic to see it? I told they the correct way to tag (spoiler: "tag") so hopefully they fix it.
I commented on it when I don't comment on fics (I have a reason, don't come at me) just to tell them to tag it correctly. I'm legitimately angry. Infertility has made ~*SURPRISE*~ pregnancy so much worse. On top of that, I'm really tired of "alien biology" being the lazy version of trans trope.

Waiting until a fic is finished and still having untagged mpreg/pregnancy from someone you follow is fucking diabolical. I spent half of the the second chapter rechecking the tags first because it was porn w/o plot with so much plot and then second because I felt the mpreg coming.

I bet briefly met my new neighbors today. While screaming at my dog that I was going to put him in inpatient care...and that he needs fixing therapy...I...was not quiet about this...

The argument was over the fact I was talking with someone casually about the fact there's no wrong way to cook, food safety not withstanding, because as long as you're eating, it doesn't matter. They came in hot about how there's a correct way to cook pasta because they were taught in Italy. 🙃
Every once in awhile, I'm remind of the ridiculous reasons people have stopped being friends with me. It's rare because I actively try to not be a dick to people, so it's usually people hurting their own feelings and then getting defensive. The one I thought of today was over cooking pasta.

I was drawing on a vintage deck of cards I picked up and a guy at the table felt some kind of way and asked how old is was. 36. "So you're calling yourself vintage?" Yes! Gleefully! I thought i was be dead over half my life ago. I'm fucking stoked to have lived long enough to be vintage, bud!

I have not colored my hair in almost a year and half after over a decade of every color under the sun and...I still don't think I want to do anything with it. Like I want yellow or green again but I'm not missing the maintenance at all. And I'm really loving seeing all the silver I have. It's nice.

Tangentially related, but it's been an ongoing fight I've had amongst fellow aces about the nuances of asexuality and sex aversion. The rise of purity culture has just had my blood boiling further about this particular topic. You being uncomfortable with sex doesn't mean it should be removed.
I dunno, it’s a pet peeve. I’ve had ppl also complain about ClawShot being too horny bc they’re too ace to understand it and like, I’m ace! Look below the surface, it’s about drama and character development. You don’t need to empathize 100% with a story every time. Look beyond your perspective.
I’ve gotten negative assumptions about the romance part of UDgame and I think there’s a misconception of what it means. It’s why I preface it with “horror”, it’s both.
I think there’s a bad habit of writing off a story without knowing more than a one word genre that’s so broad.

I don't really celebrate Christmas but my in laws do. In light of not having kids they have decided that our dog needs a Christmas list. Worth it.

There's a little European (German or Ukrainiani think) lady that cleans the house across the street from us. She was fawning over my dog this morning and tried to get him (an me) in the house to feed him cat food. Sweet lady. WEIRD lady.

But there's not much we can do about it at this point. This is particularly hard because my siblings and I are the end of our indigenous line. I have other goals to focus on now. Getting my name changed and top surgery. If anyone who's had top surgery wants to message me to give me advice feel free.
There's a fair few of you who know what Carl and I have been working towards the last few years. Unfortunately, that journey has come to an end. As much as I've wanted it, we're not going to have any children. I've gone through so much to try and it didn't work out. We are heartbroken.

I just found out I never told my sister she said this. Why did she always say the wild shit to me...
To this day it still haunts me that my mother legitimately believed that the joker -THE FUCKING COMIC BOOK JOKER- reached through into our world and killed Heath Ledger. That should been a bigger sign to me than it was at the time.
