From what I’ve been seeing in this sub lately, I’m not even sure I know what the fuck a shitpost is. Am I wrong or are they wrong?
- Comment on How do you reconcile staying sane while keeping yourself up-to-date with the news? 20 hours ago:
Second the hell out of this. It can take a lot out of you emotionally, and you need to take breaks, but I feel so much better when I’m among others who are also working to make positive change.

This is a cute lil mistake. I genuinely thought you were just shitposting til I saw this comment.

Springfield, Missouri, apparently.

I found it on cineby. Though it is presumably streaming on paramount now? I’m not American so I’m not certain where you would usually access south park.
- Comment on What would happen if I just drove straight south to Mexico? 4 days ago:
I’m sorry you’ve lost the right to do actual good work in the places that probably need it most. I don’t know about teaching in Mexico but you could try Canada? Although we’re being picky with immigrants now too (and our shitty government refuses to admit that trans people from the US should be granted refugee status here).
- Comment on What would happen if I just drove straight south to Mexico? 4 days ago:
Mexico City has a much better scene for queer folks if you’re serious. Though there is quite a bit of pushback currently about US remote workers moving down there and gentrifying.
- Comment on How do you combat boredom? 6 days ago:
So many people here saying to do things like hobbies (which can be great), but aren’t any of you ever bored while doing your hobbies? I have like at least 5 different hobbies at any given time and even though I often love them, sometimes no matter what I try I’m just bored as fuck.
- Comment on That sounds like a fun thing to do 6 days ago:
I upvoted cause I didn’t notice what community it was in. While my heart continues to want the upvote because it’s a nice post, I will take your point and remove it :(
- Comment on Are password managers secure to use? 1 week ago:
I write my passwords on paper in code, like my dad taught me to do.
However, just a personal anectdote, my uncle passed suddenly and he had written all his passwords (not in code) on a spreadsheet with each account, which he then printed. I promise you, this single piece of paper was one of the most helpful things I could’ve asked for in sorting out all of his assets. It was a genuine lifesaver. Now I often think that maybe I should be sharing my password with an S.O. or someone else close to me just to make their life easier if I were to die tomorrow.
- Comment on When you are really dumb and don't realize it 1 week ago:
My physio asked me where I got my tattoo (that she was staring at). Tell my why my brain said “on my leg” and I had a mild stroke before I could say the name of the shop.

Damn, thinking about space makes me feel ill but you are cool AF, thank you for sharing
- Comment on What makes a fart dry vs wet? 1 week ago:
What about when its not like poop-poop but like the clear poop juice? (Sorry I don’t know how to word this but this is a serious question)
- Comment on I just realized some people LIKE talking to each other. 1 week ago:
I like talking to some people. Do you not like talking to anyone? Like even people you care about?

That’s neat as fuck can you tell me something else?
- Comment on Why do so many people seem confused about what appeals to male gays? Do they not know how sexual orientation works? 1 week ago:
This is a really fucking funny joke and I am so sad I needed you to explain it.
- Comment on Is it weird I don't typically answer how old I am anymore, because literally nobody besides my family believes me? 1 week ago:
Huh, TIL that identical twins can be different heights.
- Comment on We should be able to legally have a different name just for work for better work/life separation 1 week ago:
I’m totally over having a “professional self”. I don’t go around swearing as much at work but other than that I’m pretty much just being me. People still respect me and I don’t feel as exhausted by masking every single day.
I’m also over corporate lingo and just call people/things out when they’re overloaded with BS jargon. Its an accessibility issue and people need to learn to communicate in plain language.
- Comment on We should be able to legally have a different name just for work for better work/life separation 1 week ago:
For a long time I went by my full name at work but family and friends were always by nickname. Now I work with someone who was a friend and was used to calling me my nickname and would introduce me to others by it, so it started to bleed.
However at work, I still refer to myself by my full name with people I don’t like or trust as much. If anyone ever figures out my system they’ll realize how I feel about people in the office very quickly hahaha.
- Comment on We should be able to legally have a different name just for work for better work/life separation 1 week ago:
At my work we let people use whatever name they want for any IT stuff. Basically you give us one name and that’ll be your email, Teams, account ID, basically anything your coworkers can see. The only time the legal name is used is on HR documents and payroll, but they’re working to adjust that too, which would be super great. There’s no reason anyone should have to be referred by as a name that they don’t feel is their own or that triggers traumas.
- Comment on Deserved? Poll inside 1 week ago:
LOL my partner is a germaphobe and would be very upset if I touched his food. I’ll cook it, sure, but I sure as fuck wouldn’t poke his food with my bare hands randomly at dinner.

GenX are also known as the invisible or forgotten generation, for the same reason.

Sure am!
- Comment on Eating would be weird if we didn't enjoy it. 2 weeks ago:
Honestly that’s me all the time. I do it for several reasons but I don’t necessarily get crazy enjoyment from it. I don’t hate it either, it’s just not like the best thing ever, y’know? And it’s not my partner, this has been my whole life. My body gets “enjoyment” as in, I can orgasm, but mentally I’m just like, meh.
- Comment on Where were you when the final Garfield comic dropped...? 2 weeks ago:
I’m genuinely so fucking mad but I am upvoting because it is good.
- Comment on “Donated” plasma today 2 weeks ago:
In Canada it’s not even legal for employers to give gift cards out as gifts, let alone pay a fucking wage with them. (I mean they still give them as gifts but they’re not technically allowed to).
US is a fucking wild place.
- Comment on “Donated” plasma today 2 weeks ago:
They have Hard Bite near me which are arguably the best chips to come out of Canada since Lays Ketchup chips (by like a lot).
- Comment on Can a Russian pls confirm 2 weeks ago:
I believe you but I like it so much that I’m gonna start using it anyway.
- Comment on Pretty woman stepping on you 2 weeks ago:
Honestly same but with guys. Guys that are too keen on hurting a woman are obviously bad, but then they can go the other direction and not be willing to do something even if the woman is a very willing participant.
Not saying I blame them, it’s just a consequence of our society’s general issues with consent.
