one thing I really like about my relationship with my boyfriend is that we can express negative feelings about each other's actions without assigning blame or requiring apology. I mean like for morally neutral things like "it drives me crazy when you leave a wet towel on the floor instead of hanging it up"
cause now like instead of "oh I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to drive you crazy, I'm terrible and unsocialized" or "um well that's dumb, who cares" it's like
"it does? I didn't know that. how come?"
"because it will mildew and I keep tripping over it and I don't know whether you intend to reuse that towel or whether it needs to go in the wash"
"okay so usually if I intend to reuse it I hang it up, and if it needs to go in the wash I drop it on the floor. I guess because I thought I shouldn't put it in the hamper because it would get all the other dirty clothes wet and then THEY might mildew before we do the laundry."
"that's valid. what if we have a specific place to hang wet towels that need to be washed? how about this one hook here"
"perfect!"
no hurt feelings, nobody being made to feel shitty and sloppy on one hand or uptight and bitchy in the other hand. just, we're partners right? let's workshop this
i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

was gonna add more but i ran out of steam ๐๐ anyway hereโs an infographic on how people with complex dissociative disorders are not that different from you lol
idea for the next despicable me movie. one of the minions wishes on the monkey's paw "MEENA WANNA BIGGA WEENIE!" and at first he sprouts a four-incher (which is huge for such a little guy) much to his delight but then it keeps growing nonstop and knocks the monkey's paw down the sewer so the gang has to go on an adventure to find it before the whole city is engulfed in stretchy yellow minion dick. and they say the magic words "BIGGA WEENIE BYE-BYE!" and he looks down and realizes he is now cockless and screams and everyone shares a laugh. until one of them picks up the monkey's paw and says "MEENA WANNA BIGGA BOOTY!" and a minion looks at the audience with a here-we-go-again expression and the credits roll.
do you think anyone ever had their sexual awakening from the scallions from veggietales and now they really want someone to use them as a footstool or a table to play scrabble on and tie them up and beat them up and throw them out of babylon
