i'm very happy that on mastodon (or at least this bubble of it), i have not encountered anyone of a particular odious type i can only describe as "evangelical atheist" and in fact have seen this shit roundly mocked

bc it's inevitably a white dude sitting upon a throne of privilege who doesn't understand that maybe people have different relationships towards religion than he does as A Stick To Hit People With and who does not understand that his atheism is just swapping out one stick for another

listen, pain i can do, but it gets fucking inconvenient when my body decides pain must equal nausea

hey you know what'd help, body? if we didn't feel like the risk of throwing up additional pain meds was too great! or maybe we got a snack even! CEASE THIS NONSENSE

my friends..... i have some SPECIAL LEAKED FOOTAGE...... of @Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online 's TRUE IDENTITY........ https://i.imgur.com/IsHh9u7.mp4

note: this is a very silly post

after all, it's not a question of IF you'll become disabled. it's WHEN.

it's just that society has said being old is the one valid excuse. (sometimes.)

but if anyone Too Much is not fit to exist in society... well... who am i to convince someone to give up such firmly held beliefs :)

"...so what'll it be, a nursing home where you are ridiculed for asking for your medicine every single day and ANOTHER diaper (what a precious little snowflake you are), or just tied to a tree where the wolves can get you as you are Too Much For Society?"

slate's advice column answered a question from somebody asking essentially "i have multiple mental illnesses and am having 1-3 panic attacks per day, can i ask my workplace for accomodations?"

the comment section is full of ADHD, AUTISM AND TRANS??? YOU'RE JUST TOO MUCH!!

i may have dropped off a snarky comment all "ah yes, as soon as you're less than fully abled, we can get you accommodations in accordance to your wishes..."

listen that was a pretty fucken weak attempt but i stand by it

@noelle well it looks like that movement is pretty...

*puts on sunglasses, themesong begins to play more loudly than any living creature needs or wants,*

y'all know those blue tins full of dutch butter cookies? the ones where if you see a tin in the wild there's about an 80% chance it's actually full of sewing supplies?

i'd fucking murder a man for a tin of those right now

i suppose i should go ahead and make Official Notice

a) it's not that i hate people using screen readers, it's just that i am often very very tired and don't have the spoons to accurately write image descriptions

b) on this note if you're interested in my images having descriptions and have the spare spoons to do so, i will always be grateful for the help

(unless you're like captioning a selfie as "image description: a big fuckin' idiot who looks like a poopyhead" or some shit, anyway)

the real magic of ffxiv is finding a group of people who play well AND appreciate your jokes

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online i would say yes but i just gave myself a stomachache with the extra sour sprees i got so uh

maybe don't give them to me

@InspectorCaracal i admit i chose tomatoes because of how ~scandalous~ they were

which makes good sense to your average peasant, who hears about this nightshade like plant from exotic lands that you're supposed to *eat??????* tomatoes are real daredevil stuff!!!

@InspectorCaracal it is going to be replaced with me marching into worldbuilding reddits yelling at the top of my lungs DO NOT HAVE TOMATOES IN YOUR MEDIEVAL FANTASY IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO JUSTIFY THEM SIRRAH

@InspectorCaracal EXACTLY. and you can tell so much about technology level from tracing back "what are the little domestic technologies at play"

and yeah, that is its big flaw. but in most people doing "medieval-fantasy faux europe", they've probably already loosely got a set of tiers in place. i think it's useful to note that if there are tiers, you need to address it - and think about it, lol, instead of just blithely writing that your peasant is eating veal and pineapple lmao

@InspectorCaracal i usually go with Excruciating

because honestly then you get not only cultural habits, but economy, landscape (as it informs agriculture), politics (what's rare because it's from enemy lines? what's cuisine that's fashionable because it's considered the 'tastemaker'? is there cuisine that used to be fashionable but now is not because of shifted political influences?), etc., etc...

honestly it's the root that you can go to just about everything else from, lol

@InspectorCaracal BIG BIG AGREE

but i'm also a bit strange in that i consider the One World Building Question that you will Ever Need is "what does a day's worth of food look like for the lower, middle, and upper classes?"
