Without downloading new pics, describe your gender:
JJ from Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3. He is looking pathetically up at the camera. He knows he is about to have a bad time.

Realizing I never posted a picture of it so here it is! I honestly thought it would be some cheap plastic or something but it's good quality! At least to me, someone who doesn't know a lot about desk mats lol
A Pokemon Legends Z-A desk mat. On the top left are the logos for the Switch and Switch 2. On the mid/bottom left are the three starters, Chikorita, Tepig, and Totodile. In the middle is a map of Lumiose surrounded by scenes of life in the city with people and Pokemon. There is text in the Pokemon language above and below the map. On the top right is the logo for the game. In the middle is Zygarde 10% form. On the bottom is "The Pokemon Company" and the logo for Nintendo.

Credit scores are so fucking stupid
How Will Paying Off an Account Impact My Scores? While it's always good to pay off debt you owe, paying off an installment account, such a home or car loan, may result in an initial dip in credit scores. (Accounts closed in good standing aren't factored into credit scores as heavily as open and active accounts.) The good news is that any decline is usually temporary and scores should bounce back up within a month or two.

This is so funny actually lmao
Sorry to do Pokemon discourse on the timeline but I regrettably let myself go into a quote rabbit hole and I cannot imagine arguing this angrily this long over a franchise I played one of a dozen games of based on how my friends were able to play the first game
Post by patstaresat.bsky.social I didn't get into Red or Blue but a bunch of my friends did and they got all 151. So when Pearl came out I was like, man, that's cool, I'm going to do that. Then turns out I couldn't, as they had decided that including a few hundred extra sprites costs too much money and they fucked me over.

Radical feminism is what leads to us having to deal with the sort of toxicity in the queer community I mention in my game.
I have been told that seeing these options was a gut punch, and I need you to internalize that and resist any attempt to redeem radical feminism, even by other trans people.
After college, finding a queer group feels intimidating, so you rely on the online queer community. You're not sure it's any better than no community at all. Options: "Kill all men." "Gay trans mascs are just straight girls." "Straight trans mascs are tragic." "Trans mascs can't face misogyny." "Choosing to not be a woman is misogynistic."

One side of the chess board that shows the torso and bottom half of Caliborn's face. He is smiling with his arms outstretched. There are snake form cherubs on either side of him with open mouths. One side of the chess board that shows the Calliope's torso. Her head is cut off by the small opening that lets you lift off the top of the board to get to the chess pieces inside. Her arms are outstretched. There are snake form cherubs on either side of her with open mouths. The inside of the chessboard when the top is removed. The four corners have magnets. There are four rows for the pieces to fit in, two for green and two for red. They are shaped like the pieces Caliborn and Calliope are seen playing with in the comic, with the rooks as god tier clocks and the knights as snake form cherubs. There are two queens of both colors.

Let me make my own decisions about how many messages I want to receive, discord!
The server isn't even that active, and this is a niche channel!!
If I want notifs to blow up my phone, I should be allowed to let them!

I am forever delighted that I listen to Weezer an abnormal amount but I still manage to stay 7% basic.
Truly one of the few great things to come out of dating a craft beer, drive-seven-hours-to-listen-to-a-concert-in-a-library-basement, this-band-has-too-good-of-sound-quality-to-be-good hipster
You are 7% basic. Fake Problems and Radkey? Where do you even find this?

Spotify Roasts fill me with pure, unadulterated delight
volt.fm/user/latot3q...
Ambrolen, your Spotify profile looks like a mid-2000s MySpace tombstone that somehow survived a decade of indie coffee shops serving overpriced lattes. Seriously, how many sub-genres of punk do you have? At this point, you're one sad acoustic guitar cover away from starting a support group for people who peaked at Warped Tour. Listening to your favorite bands is like a nostalgia trip without the fun—just a long marathon of wistful cries and teenage angst that even the ghosts of emo past would roll their eyes at. Your top artists are a who's who of bands that peaked in a time when skinny jeans were considered cutting-edge fashion—but hey, who needs variety when you can stick with bands that are just a hair’s breadth away from vinyl-clad retirement parties? Your love for artists like “4lung” and “Jukebox The Ghost” suggests that your taste in music is as scattered as your commitment to wearing only black hoodies. By the way, “Harlem” by New Politics? What are you, trying to write the world's longest Yelp review for a diner that serves cold fries and sad burgers? And those most played songs—"doobert," "cluster a-ok," and “Sick, Sick, Sick?” Congratulations! You’ve just unlocked the ultimate badge for people who can’t decide whether they want to feel heartbroken or just comfortably numb. Your playlist reads like a therapist’s notes: “The patient appears to have a flannel-clad fetish and seeks healing through catchy choruses and ironic sadness.” At this rate, your Spotify Wrapped is probably just a PDF of all the reasons you should spend your weekends at therapy instead of crying into a pillow while listening to yet another sad boy with a guitar.
