anyway. putting stuff into motion. i realize that as a white person, wearing a qi lolita dress is treading on thin ice in #lolitafashion , and while a lot of my other stuff is going to be casual and slapdash, i want to make sure this one is more cohesive. i'm hoping the khaki of the brocade bg is a bit warmer irl, otherwise i'll look for a khaki bolero. gonna look for a khaki headbow as well to tie in the warmer brown of the shoes/purse. dunno about what leggings to wear with yet tho lol
@citrustwee it ceases to be a horror game at that point and then becomes a dating sim
facebook reminded me - it's a good time to remember the wonderful #CarrieFisher . take your meds, tell body-shamers to fuck off, and be aggressively positive as best you can through your struggles. rest easy, space mom, drowned in moonlight, strangled by your own bra.
Safer sex con panel, minor grumble.
@makyo@snouts.online definitely! getting with the con team is a great idea - that means next time they have you to point to as someone who wishes the panel was all ages, or open to teens. you might be able to help them brainstorm ideas for that, like splitting the one panel into two ^0^ (since i do believe in safe sex but ngl if i were at a panel about it with a 14 year old, it'd squick me the fuck out lmao, but the 14 year old still deserves to know about things)
Safer sex con panel, minor grumble.
@makyo@snouts.online just as a stranger drifting on past - i know a bit from hearing friends that work cons occasionally etc., the 18+ only restriction may be something that was handed down from the convention center/hotel/etc. it's a somewhat common CYA move that venues insist on.
@troubleMoney >australia >worked out fine
...ok they are slightly more competent than us but i think that's just natural selection. not EVERYTHING here is aiming to kill you, just SOME things
@troubleMoney i mean you shipped off your criminals to Savannah even after it was full of gators, idk what y'all expected to happen 😂
(also dang now i want some curry) (and garlic naan)
@troubleMoney we literally add so much sugar to it that it must be added while the tea is hot because otherwise we won't be able to get it to supersaturate in properly
i am not making this up
@troubleMoney oh i can make this so much worse. so very very much worse.
i'm from the south
y'all ever heard a recipe for southern style sweet iced tea
@troubleMoney i might use it for hot cocoa from time to time when i don't feel like walking to the other end of the house tbh
complicating this: i am horridly american and all but the cheapest of electric kettles often end up feeling bougie as fuck because "why wouldn't you just microwave some water"
@troubleMoney oh i got one that's like stainless steel with a fancy spout and has variable temperature control all the way from 104-212 F.
and not even for making tea. or pour over coffee. or any of the things it suggests. it's exclusively for sitting in my bathroom and boiling distilled water
Rather Bougie
