(anyway tangential sidebar here that'll get me thrown out for bad praxis, but hey zero-waste eco-warriors? please remember disabled people exist and some of us will NEVER be zero-waste, no matter HOW much we try. less waste is a great goal, but please direct more ire on corporations, less ire on "i'd like a straw so i can drink my drink please" from disabled people and "a disposable one-use cleaning cloth is the only way i have spoons to wash my face most days")

in a perfect world everyone would have the energy to do these full routines, or to keep up with laundry and use special washcloths and w/e

but if a face cleansing wipe is something you can do, do it. it's ok to do that. it doesn't matter if it's not part of a perfect skincare routine, and you shouldn't let thoughts of environmental impact freeze you in place if you're disabled and are faced with that choice. go for the cleansing wipe you're going to actually use, not the stuff you aren't

like.... will you always have the spoons to do a full 15 step korean skincare routine morning and evening? nope, most ablebodied people don't

but what you can do still counts

washing your face? great

washing your face once every two days? still great, still counts

and i think some spoonies get caught in the trap of "but i'm not THAT disabled so..." and honestly if some aid makes it so you can do it, there's no shame in it and you should be encouraged to do so

chewing on an article idea for sweetdisabled, 'the spoonie guide to skincare'

which is... mostly philosophical

i'm trying to not be all "just buy shit!" about it, but also i feel that sometimes people are very all-or-nothing with skincare and like

half measures are ok

not being able to do everything "the best" is ok

the thing you actually use and do is always going to be better than the thing you don't use and do, and i think that's important

how bad do i want to play splatoon?

i actually looked at adapters for xbox controllers to switch, even though the xbox controller i have is a cheap as shit wish.com special

Show thread

for weeks i haven't been particularly interested in actually playing splatoon 2

and now

now that i'm down one joycon with one out for repair

....................i want to play so much splatoon

also the rise of @Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online 's soup anarchy is making me really really really want my favourite salsa from a local mexican place, which i can and have eaten like gaspacho before.

well, like gaspacho with chips

but still, i've gone through like 3 of the bottles-of-salsa-for-the-table before at a time

it's basically the perfect summer lunch in georgia

you consume salsa for salt you've lost from sweating buckets, and you are encouraged to rehydrate by the salsa's spice

RUNS IN TOP SPEED TO MASTO

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online !!!!!!!!!!!! youtube.com/watch?v=JEPRVy1jat !!!!!!!!! GIRAFFE CAM!!!!!!!!!

did i just bust myself by tweeting this and including an @ to the nintendo account?

yes

is the joke worth it?

i'm going to say definitely yes.

also i can think of no higher bribe than "please take this fat pikachu to fix my joycon before the splatfest"

nintendo support: please ONLY send the part for repair and NOTHING ELSE

camera pans to me, narrowing my eyes rebelliously as i write a cheerful little letter to the tech who will end up repairing my joy-con and enclose a pikachu sticker as bribery to do an extra good job

honestly i'm just waiting to become a full mastodon member with full masto experience, and by that i mean being on some blacklist and being widely shamed for some as yet unidentified sin on my part

if that has not already happened of course

Trying to write my paper out to a PostScript document, the compiler spouts out a warning:

weird TeX, but ok

lordy i've felt like badly microwaved death all day and i am so tired of it

when designing Sass, one of the first questions we ask is, "how clear is this feature to someone who doesn't know Sass, and maybe doesn't even know CSS well?"

you know that experience of seeing a kink and going "oh no that's hot"?

we need a word for the exact opposite of that, of seeing something and becoming pure "oh! i hate that. i hate that so much"

on that note, please tag your bimboification kink and/or adjacent kinks that bank on becoming feminine also equating with becoming an idiot, so i can let the filter nab them, lest i end up saying something uncharitable in a blind feminist rage.
