Huh, this is how I learn mall Santas exist outside north America.

Adding to this, I want it to look as close to the original as possible, because my great-grandma, who died before I was born, made the cardigan.

That’s a kind of plan C, plan B being weaving a lil patch of fabric over it, and plan A to re-knit the unraveled fabric. I don’t know how to do planA though!

That was one of the first things I noticed when visiting north America. The grid really does make cities super windy compared to the cities I’m used to, which grew naturally over centuries and aren’t on a grid. And I’m from a city that’s pretty windy for geographical reasons. Still doesn’t compare.

Ya know, people keep saying this, but I’ve tried coke before, and preteen sex didn’t cross my mind once during it.

When I was 12, my mum told my teacher that I found the books we were reading for class childish. Teacher then gave me IT to read instead. No idea what he was thinking. Being the same age as the characters, the sex scene was the most traumatizing by far.

Oooh that’s so cool, I’m actually going next summer for a wedding anyway, might as well combine it with a nice camping trip!

I mostly dress for sensory issues and gender dysphoria. For work, I additionally dress to get taken seriously and in my free time, I dress for fun (sparkles, bright colours, frills, think David Bowies more fem looks). So, like most people, a mix of both, with one or the other being a stronger consideration in different situations.

Interesting! It always seemed like more. I have a friend who lives in Vancouver, and he did say that camping in the wild was kinda scary with all the predators there. But he’s born and raised in Europe, so I figured that was why it was too daunting for him.

Depends on what you mean by that https://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/what-causes-depression

Being chronically ill and clinically depressed does the trick for me (though I’ve never slept for 24 hours straight, I wake up hungry after 12ish hours and go back to sleep after eating).

Camping not being stimulating is one of the nicest sounding things about north America. Here in Europe, everywhere is so densely populated that you can’t just camp everywhere. You have to go to a campsite. Wildlife has sparse enough space as is, so it makes sense that you can’t just pitch a tent in their habitat.

And campsites are always so full of strangers. Not relaxing or understimulating at all. Kinda wish I could just go out into the wild and pitch a tent and be by myself the way north Americans seem to do. Sounds super relaxing.

iirc it’s ‘several species of small furry animals gathered in a cave grooving with a pict’

Knowing the template, this actually does make sense. The first three are ones where it’s super clear that you’d have to be quite stupid to fall for it. Then the fourth one, a lot of people wouldn’t immediately realise you have to be stupid to fall for them, but it’s stupid to fall for them nonetheless.

True to the meme format, the point isn’t that it isn’t stupid to fall for the first three. It clearly is. But falling for the fourth one is stupid, too.

(though I must admit, the selection of some of the examples is pretty weird)

Gotcha! Kinda wanted to justify what fuelled that mess of a sentence haha

Nah I’m just full of ADHD meds, nicotine and caffeine

I’m the straightest person. I don’t have a gender, and I’m attracted to all genders. ‘all’ and ‘none’ are by far more opposite each other *than any two specific sexes or genders could ever be.

Am I understanding correctly that you’re saying nobody gets to feel unsafe as long as there’s someone who’s even more unsafe? Or are you saying something else?

Why would Syria et al. provide asylum to trans people fleeing the US?

Literally the first thing about what you’re trying to say. Like, I’m not following at all, can you explain what youre trying to say with the above comment?
