  • I mean clearly this is through the lens of my own experiences and feelings, that’s why I said “I don’t like that this feels like” instead of “I don’t like that this is”.

    I understand “hustle culture” and the things that this is addressing, I just don’t like the… absolute? feel of it. And that’s fine, I’m not out here demanding all the memes on the internet be made specifically to my tastes. I just felt the desire to put my thoughts out there, and didn’t restrain it for once.

    I hate that this feels so “you shouldn’t live/act conventionally” instead of “you don’t need to live/act conventionally”. Like, I don’t sell things I make because I want the money, I sell things I make because I love things I make being out and about in the world. It helps give me a reason to make them, because I struggle to make things for myself. Doing nothing absolutely kills me, and that’s ok. Making things is one of the only things I truly like about myself, of course I’m going to heavily identify with that.

    Ime, people who are curious about anal and want to try putting something up their butt aren’t big enough to take cucumbers (or at least they think so, you’re stretchier than you realize), and people who can take larger stuff have actual toys that are better in every way. Although, as improv dildos, they’re actually not bad imo. Better than most everything else I tried when I was a curious butt noob



  • There’s always someone who’s looking to interpret what you say as badly as possible so they can feel good about confronting you about it. I’m not being like “oh people these days are too sensitive”, just… some people take everything way too seriously and are looking for things to be upset over and I hate when that’s me. Really pokes my anxiety tbh. I want to stress it’s not like I’m out here making shitty edgy jokes and then getting upset when no one likes them, it’s just day to day comments. I dunno. I overthink a lot about whether I’m the problem, had an extremely negative self image for a long time where I blamed myself for every negative interaction I had and it’s hard to let that go.

    And like there’s genuinely good positive replies and interactions, but they don’t stick with me like the negative ones do.

    I’m mentally fragile I guess, I just honestly do my best to be an understanding and accepting and positive person and it hurts to have somebody think the opposite, even though their opinion has absolutely no bearing on my life. I dunno, it’s… I guess it’s because I’m trying to be perfectly pleasing people generally and when I fall short of that impossible standard it hurts. I’m massively overthinking this, I know. Just something that’s been weighing on my mind.
