jfc the difference in quotes i got between my actual voice vs a bullshit gaston masc impression is infuriating.
- actual voice + name (femme/ androgynous) = median of ~$1500
- bullshit gaston voice + deadname (masc) = median of ~$600
i am already well aware of systemic misogyny & still… wtaf

being a DIY lesbian rocks because i know enough to understand my limits & what not to fuck with.
drill out & install a new dryer vent? yah sure.
run a dedicated 240V circuit with a double-pole breaker for that new dryer? i will be buying the materials for an actual electrician.

I’ve dealt with enough misogynistic shit that i realize even a lot of cishet dudes who might be “reliable” with other guys will still immediately default to scum if you’re femme.
The only Gronk I'm aware of is the brainrot vocab word "Baby Gronk"
Fun fact: They didn't even have a script for it until two weeks after it started airing in theaters. Kronk wasn't even initially a character, but the writers kept pitching joke ideas until a cohesive himbo was formed.
same side of house. accessible crawl space, but willing to do external run if less effort, & very flexible on scheduling.
a decent electrician could easily do this in under 3 hours.
materials are, generously, around $200ish.
i also worked some construction around high school so i’m competent enough to know when i’m being screwed with.
The other aspects of the situation beyond just "how much they want to charge," well, there's a lot more to unpack there
i was just disoriented because the responses i was getting were so extremely outside of our budget that i thought i was losing my goddamn mind.
It is a sight that melts panties.
i'm hugely fucking loath to leave at all if I can help it but knowing I could go somewhere and not have to start fresh would be nice

I HAVE BEEN SWINDLED!
Also your masc voice is like, barely masc to my ears lol
i was wearing a baggy shirt, a sports bra, & had tucked my hair up into a baseball cap. butch mode fail 😩
Also annoyed how spot-on your impression of me is.
Also like your voice control is soooo good
~however~
have you done your own 120v work before? if so I promise you there is, for all relevant purposes, nothing different here
sage please
Thinks like gaston
No one schemes like gaston
No one keeps all your estimates down like gaston
There's a certain kind of dude who gets very uncomfortable when the arbitrary nature of their sexism is shown
They can't stand the idea that they might be "tricked" into showing a woman the respect due a man

I am a stereotypically masculine white dude. I bet I can save people hundreds.
Women just maybe shouldn't ever speak and have men speak for them instead, great 🤷
i will be wearing a fake stick-on mustache tomorrow when the last company shows up to give me a quote.
<3 best luck
Don't know the answer to this one other than some dudes just suck and I'm sorry.
Always makes me smile
Tomorrow I'll be 60 years old
I used to have my dad take stuff to the luthier lol
