Back in my early twenties when I weighed about 90lbs I was always freezing cold. For this reason I wore jackets like an exoskeleton, layering a button up, hoodie, and an outer long wool coat. The upshot of this was always having tons of pockets, in which I carried a vast array of things.
Practical things like my keys, wallet, chapstick, of course. But also less conventional things like stray buttons, paperback books, little toys, nail clippers, and open bags of candy when I offered strangers new acquaintances candy they always said yes which either says they weren’t raised right or I’m more charming than years of being told not to do that.
I really loved my coats but I did sometimes need to move quicker than they allowed. I remember a friend’s utter astonishment when I saw someone I needed to run up to and said hold my coat. He was left holding my carapace and when I returned he couldn’t stop staring. “You’re so small under there, I’ve thought you were a normal person this whole time but it was all coat!”
At the doctors office getting weighed a week or so later I asked if I needed to take off my coat and boots. She said no, and I stepped on the scale. “A hundred and twenty pounds,” she announced.
My eyebrows shot up and I said, “Sorry, hang on.” I shucked my coat and boots to her impatience and stepped back on.
Her eyes widened and she looked back from me to the coat before saying accusingly, “Ninety seven.”
I nodded and redonned my protective carapace.
Man, Jesus really smoked that grave
Just remembered when I was a child I found a christian webpage arguing that hydrothermal tube worms support the existence of hell because of something in the bible about hell having demonic worms in it that eat your soul and I wrote a lengthy angry email about how tube worms can't be connected to evil because they are beautiful gentle beings who cannot hurt anything and just sway peacefully forever sustained by the vent itself, the most innocent creature there coupd ever be.
They never responded to me so obviously I hope they DIED. fucking bastards !!!! 😡😡😡
Genuinely considering starting a business where I do what I can to repair people's phones for a MUCH cheaper price than the actual companies charge you. I HATE intentional obscurity and the lack of right to repair with a burning passion, and I've been slowly accumulating the proper tools and knowledge to open up phones from 2018 and up and repair any hardware issues I might find. Software is where the idea gets a bit more complicated, but there must be SOMETHING that can be done to keep an older ("older") phone running at a decent capacity (any tips/methods are WELCOME please and thank you) but yeah. Saving for college or else I'd do it for free, but yeah, I think it'd be a good service to provide. I'm an engineering/robotics kid, so I'm familiar enough with tech to do a good job, especially after all the experimental repairs I've done on old phones for friends and family or discarded phones I collected. Any advice is welcome.
The “That’s immoral you shouldn’t write that, we need to get that taken down” discourse on tiktok right now is PISSING ME OFFF
Wdym you want censorship for a literal ARCHIVE are you fucking stupid
Ao3 was literally founded to preserve works that were largely getting taken down due to censorship
Censorship is the opposite of what Archive of Our Own stands for
The TAGS and WARNINGS are there for a REASON. Use them and stop complaining
The universal rule—don’t like, don’t read
It’s THAT simple
