really just a bunch of nerdy queer neurodivergent folks standing around and chatting about nerdy gay shit

Chiming in to confirm the hell out of this ^ and more!

Obviously every community has its individual style/tastes/etc, but in my extensive experience when you get a bunch of people together who are practiced/invested in negotiation it creates a wonderful sense of safety.

I havent been out in quite some time, but a few years ago cuddle piles werent uncommon! Piling together like cats is deeply fulfilling sensory input - just as fulfilling as bondage, impact, etc. types of play you expect to see there.

If you can find rings that fit you at places like antique shops, sterling silver (i only trust stamped 925) isnt that expensive and can be blackened by the sulfur that eggs give off: put it jewelry a container with a halved boiled egg and the fumes do the trick! It can be polished with a cloth to bring out highlights or shine :)

Its less derangement and more hypervigilance because theres no real disclosure etiquette. There are nicer ways to check an OP for it than that tho…

I’m a visual artist with a sharp eye for AI who inspects every image anymore, and will vouch: the human giveaways for this being real are the consistency of repeated elements (cigarettes, flags), clarity of text (written consistently, makes sense even when cut off or at odd angles), and sensible variation in detail (it is unimportant to flesh out hundreds of packs of cigs bc most viewers have the cultural shorthand for it, it is important to render the counter mat that seems to list food offerings or advertisements.)

Hopefully this can help sharpen the next guys AI detection so OP doesnt catch any more undue strays 🫣

This! Check for bean sprouts/toe tufts :)

Pregananant!??!!!?1!!??

It doesnt look lile grime to me, it looks like the topmost layer of leather (or the coating on it) has worn away with time, no doubt accellerated by hand sanitizer

I’m sure this is a pithy joke (and carry on if so) but for anyone who wants the real answer…its an old algorithm thing.

Way back when, Facebook didnt like the influx of tumblr/reddit screenshots (aka The Federation Mom Says We Have At Home), nor did they like the spreading of information via digital flyers.

They suppressed images that were over a certain percentage text, and one way to get around it was to present the text as part of another image. Designers could get around this with art and such, but scrapers and many screenshotters kinda just use whatever.

Edit: in this case, it seems the creator went with the strategy of “smiling young white woman in car” which most algos smile favorably upon as opposed to say, a photo of the people the tweet is actually about.

My brains cache gets wiped every time my neurodivergent ass walks through a doorway, so recently I started holding an invisible [ whatever object I’m looking for ] before going into the target room. Box? Cup? Keys? I dont have a clue what I walked in here for but my hands do!

eebies and neebies to sleeby:3

The most powerful banishing spell is “ill put this here where i wont forget” and the most powerful summoning spell is buying its replacement 🪄✨

+1 to this, the Plaid Shirt Of Plausible Deniability™️ works for all genders

spaghetti code

Not the only one! Got a Galaxy phone that has such weak vibration that I switched back to audio cues. Mostly video game noises, some sound effects. When having an active conversation, I put it on vibrate so the sounds dont get annoying.

Underrated joke 🎖️

Lindsay even uploaded it to YouTube temporarily because she wants people who can’t access Nebula to have access to her breakdown on Dolly’s cultural context

I had the same acronym reaction, but DCD is also known as dyspraxia, which has been gaining awareness the last few years :)

Heheheh cutting edge 🥁🥁💥

This description is spot on!
