I have come to admit that my own toxic trait is that i DO hold a quiet disdain for people who think that putting flatpack furniture together is hard. Why is IKEA furniture in particular regarded as some Ultimate Test for Couples - "If you build it without killing each other, he's the one, haha!" ???? Like, listen, I get it, i've got a fuck'd wrist nowadays so I DO find that hammering peg A into slot B is considerably more difficult than it used to be, but the task ITSELF? It's like building lego, y'all. Except that at the end of it, you end up with not just some sort of miniature spaceship (admittedly very cool, if not particularly useful) but a functional and stylish side table. It's the perfect enrichment. I smashed together three Billy bookcases last summer with nothing but a screwdriver, a pencil, and the love in my heart, and I had the time of my life. Do you, too, not feel a thrill in your heart at the satisfying feeling of a cam lock twisting into place? Do not the tiny little crinkly bags of screws remind you of candy wrappers to be torn open and piled gleefully upon the floor, like a child at Halloween emptying your haul onto the living room carpet? Am I the freak, or are you? I am willing to accept the former but i die on this hill regardless

no more group chats. we meet once a week from now on and everyone prepares 2 personal stories and 3-5 memes and we sit in a circle and have a Socratic seminar covering these topics

today in church one of the priests referred to trans people as "those who are growing into the gender they were called to be" and i'm kind of enjoying the idea of like....divinely ordained top surgery

i think one of the most embarrassing things about really liking / needing touch even nonsexually is the way "i want you to touch me" is perceived as a purely sexual thing. like we can just touch our legs together as friends it's okay. please

hen: yeah, so when i realised just how apathetic i was feeling about the boys i was supposed to be crushing on, it became a lot clearer that i was lesbian

chim: oh, wow! but before then, you genuinely thought you liked boys?

hen, laughing: i just assumed i did! turns out kisses aren't supposed to be "nice, i guess."

buck: for me it was so different! i thought it was normal to be super into all kinds of people. like temporarily

chim: maddie said that you checked out guys asses all the time and still thought you were straight

hen: *giggles*

eddie: wait, go back, what do you mean kisses aren't supposed to be nice? what else would they be?

chim: *side eyes eddie*

hen: well, they can be nice. but if you're into someone then your brain releases happy hormones, so you're probably feeling more than Just Nice

eddie: ...

eddie: oh.

eddie: hey buck are you busy after work i'm gonna need your help with something

the government when people want universal basic income and for money to generally be put into things that make life easier rather than excessive military spending

buck: do you ever feel like you're so close to everything you could ever want, and you start believing it's something you're allowed to have, but then they take a u-haul to texas and you're like, "well, that makes sense actually. this is clearly a life i was never meant to have."

maddie: oh, buck

The idea of listening to no black music is bizarre to me. Even if it's not rap like no earth wind and fire? No reggae? No moonstomp? No ska? No classic jazz? No R and B? No disco??? No skindred? No jungle? No even like metal bands with a few black members? No gospel? Not even stuff like alors en dance? No blues music? No mo town? No jazz of any kind? No big band? No soul music? Not even a little James Brown?
