the best time to edit your profile is when you are very tired and everything is funny for no reason

@daylight beak puppy. feathered snoutfriend.

i can't even with how cute that tiny thread is, bless

@caz@slime.global that's terrible and really not what they described, you're definitely justified in asking to return. ugh, doing a return is so nerve wracking, good luck with the seller if you do.

@Liophu yay! so good to hear this! I had a little swelling after I woke up (it's really hard to sleep on my back) but it's gone down and it feels fine ~

honestly my biggest fear would be losing the piercing or having a really bad allergic reaction. it's all super hypoallergenic stuff though =3

@tahajin not only boostin’, but i think i need a logo because... i do

would you work with kana? specifically: nu•ki•bi•tsu

@bombsfall@mastodon.social this is what I signed up for and I'm hyped

my nails are getting long enough to interfere with touchscreen typing and it's: ~annoying and validating~

I feel like that's kind of a lifestyle for me lately

@poss_bot Extremely Powerful Selfies!

@daylight they CUTE

@AlphaShadow92 hECK.

I wondered if I was gonna miss your Very Good Tums but all is well now, thank you

how do you know if someone is being receptive in a good way? how to be a good support for someone with anxiety?

it is: listen, offer experiences and realistic assessments. not all anxiety is unfounded. proper boundaries can help mitigate it, and this sometimes means being real about the worrying thing

it is not: downplaying it, "everyone feels like that sometimes," generalizing it or trying to invalidate it. not "that's a silly fear."

yes: listening & empathy
no: denying it

it's okay to experience anxiety. it's okay to talk about it. you may not know how, or what it comes from, but you are valid even with anxiety.

eliminating it isn't a matter of a brute-force attack, but a long process of talking to yourself and receptive people* about it.

while it's a common thing, I suspect that there's a special way q folks experience it and I want to hug alla y'all

*next toot

I'm not supposed to touch my ear piercings but I keep accidentally brushing up against them. on one hand it's. "omigosh this makes me super happy" and then a moment later "oh shit I hope I'm not gonna get an infection"

I'm not gonna, the shop is right around the corner from me, and they said I can stop by anytime if I think anything is up

hahaha ahhhh.

@daylight @poss_bot unlisted would work for that too, right? (it's in the 🌎 icon)

bwaaa I feel it. I have a private twitter for my most egregious vents/gendersins. turning off vigilance is necessary to life sometimes and I think it's something masto lacks? (I haven't properly explored privacy settings tbh)

some noodling on an A section I made over the weekend, not even sure what else to do with it atm but it is dreamy

@poss_bot I have this problem a lot tbh, but in more... open? spaces. I think I am a lil more confident because I got on masto a while back (this is a new acct tho) but tbh twitter is way worse for fear of someone I know attacking or a pile-on happening

if someone has a criticism here, it's more like "hey fyi for the future" than "You Are Canceled Forever". it HAS taken me a lot of personal work to not feel like every mistake is You Have Died and I'm super empathetic to it 💖
