Oh, yeah, that makes no sense at all!

I only do that when I post something that's likely to attract bigots.
Not that I've done it HERE since Bsky hasn't hurt me as long as I don't interact outside my direct circle. Threads is a lawless wasteland, though.

Right? I've got 3 (one is for my family, and I need to add 2 more stars since it only reps 2 of 4 kids), and my last was in 2011.
I want to eventually get a sleeve on that arm with several of the ideas. But I want a tattoo for each book series I put out, too.

I've got, like, 8 tattoos planned 🤣 But the first is a song quote I scheduled in 2015 that I had to put off because I got pregnant with my last baby. By the time I was ready to try to get it again, along came COVID and a lack of shops who would take an expired ID.
I've been drawing it on for years.

It's one of the things I'm most looking forward to once I'm finally able to get an ID! It's been toooo long!

These don't last the longest. Maybe a year and a half. Of course, I'm saying that as someone who uses mine several hours a day between writing, digital art, and gaming. Still, I know most of my Logitechs lasted longer. It was only this last one that died even faster.

One that I forgot doesn't support wheel tilt-click, but it's so comfy, I don't care enough to try to find one with it. It still has the gamer buttons.
It's a cheap generic model my oldest prefers, too. It's a TECKNET.

I'm not gonna make that mistake with my new series, but I'll be on D2D from the getgo there. I feel like something got borked in the move. The digital movers dinged the couch and want me to fix it, lol.

I went through this for months before I lost my left click entirely and had to break down and buy a new one last week! I feel you!
(I also have to get a big one that fits in my hand just right without pissing off my arthritis, so my options are limited)

LGBTQIA and found family will both be on my trope map when I get to that stage! (I'm going to make it a little closer to the release date--it intimidates me, lol)

I have a duplication issue (I didn't have Kobo turned off on the Draft 2 Digital distribution after migrating from Smashwords, but I prefer to upload to Kobo directly--and I can't fix it due to an epub code issue), but here's my series! Just click on the wider covers.

I didn't want to be furry, but just like first puberty wrecked me, I knew I wouldn't get a choice, so I actively worked to accept myself coming out the other side with everything I DIDN'T want, and it for sure helped! I even get gender euphoria despite wanting to wax it off 🤣

That is a terrible way to wake up, and I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

Owning it? I still don't feel like I'm entirely allowed to. I want to own it like a fruity gay guy. But I look more like a little bear 😅 I feel like... I'm not welcome in either space and nothing I ever do will change that.
comment in response to

That's such a hard question. Like, I'm not even sure. Do you mean as a definition or in being allowed to own it?
I don't know if I can define it. It's a feeling. A sense of physical shapes, of scents, of space filled. A feeling of my voice in my chest, my throat. A song inside.

It was interesting, though!

I have this fun thing called buchal exotoses and recently added a mandibular torus from tooth grinding (these are basically the bone growing outward and inward respectively), and I'd really like all of it to stop 😅

So cute!

Oooh, TIL! I've only ever heard it called Kraft Dinner from Canadians, and I genuinely thought it was just a cute nickname you had for it up there!

I had friends who were Restoration (CoC, which was RLDS back then, branch), and they were raised told to die before refusing to say they believed in God. Like, that was part of the church they went to.
This dude is acting like that's one of his tenants while violating it simultaneously.

I feel like he answered it with, "I wouldn't have Jewish friends in Nazi Germany" and isn't getting enough credit for admitting that.
It's also interesting that he says he won't lie and refuses to say he believes in God in the same TikTok time.

Ahh, I'm the other way! But right now, I'm editing, and I love that, too, but my need to create never stops. Also, My ADHD needs me to bounce around from time to time XD
Art hurts my hand (as does writing with a pencil or pen), so I can't do it as often as I should or would like.

Well, you inspired me to do it myself, so...
The side effect of making friends with artists is that they do things that look like fun, and I want to do it, too XD
