31, A stranger in an unfamiliar land, failed dude. |she/her| hopelessly gay...just for only one person |on the spectrum | on the chicklets since 03/06/20
Donor, that BECAUSE of my genetic disorder my blood is incredibly useful due to it being rich in iron and I’m fully allowed and even encouraged to donate. I spent 7 years having my blood taken out of me and instead of it going to save a life it was considered medical waste.

I only found out a couple months ago because, while i have a genetic condition that REQUIRES i have my blood drained on the regular, i wasn’t allowed donate in my home country due to same condition. Nobody ever bothered typing me.

Cut to me having moved continents being told that I’m a universal

Make no mistake. I’m not some milquetoast lib wishing people would just get along. I’m queer, I’m autistic, I’m on the left. I don’t tolerate bullshit. But I’m also not going to tolerate it from ostensibly “my side”

I believe the phenomenon is frequently referred to as “weak induction” And is used maliciously imo. It’s something that came from the old site and i hate that it’s here. It’s sad because there are people whose thoughts or saying i value. But there is a toxic undercurrent on here. It’s turning me off

“so many people on here are neurodivergent or LGBT”

I am both. Very much preaching to the choir here.

I also wouldn’t really describe what I’m talking about as being understandable reactions by marginalised people. More a lot of bad faith interpretations of posts from people on the same side

I’m kinda just…tired of seeing it. And it’s very deeply part of the culture here i find. A fair few people i follow have pointed it out too as happening to them. I’m exhausted by the world and i wanted bsky to be more positive. But it isn’t. Not being a nazi isn’t the same as being a positive voice

Oh I don’t go NEAR discovery. But some creators i enjoy are unfortunately getting into wars of words with deeply unserious people over pointless trivialities and it keeps popping up. I’ve already unfollowed a number of people chronically doing so and boosting their responses.

I’ll be very happy to see it. You aren’t one of the people making me feel this but I’m damn near ready to leave bsky. It’s full of just…the most exhausting people and my attempts to prune my feed have been fairly ineffective.

we've been gaining rights down the list of rainbow letters for decades. Wherever we stop, they'll start undoing it in the same order, with any other "undesireables" they can catch along the way

pretty sure i know this one. she's an out and out white supremacist. she came across my feed once, a thread about something that seemed reasonable...then it ended with something along the lines of "by the way i'm happy to be white and there's nothing wrong with that"

That depresses me. One of my favourite things about visiting Canada as a a kid (I’m from Ireland) was having the chance to get Timbits again. I haven’t been back for quite a while but i was looking forward to visiting again and casually going to Tim’s.

That name is a blast from the past. I already thought she was bad but holy shit she’s gotten worse. Her and her husband are pretty infamous in the uk retro games scene for being trash.

In school as well there would be some film stuff in the language but…uhhh. It’s cáca milis. One of the single most uncomfortable watches I’ve ever had. And it was shown in a classroom. youtu.be/SW-tdaO2s9o?...

Practically a rite of passage.

I think it’s more that learning Irish in school is a soul draining experience. Especially for a language that is very different from English. The lack of use didn’t help. I ended up going from watching dubbed SpongeBob on cúla4 before to the same channel only airing subtitled westerns after school.
October 10, 2025 at 11:49 AM
And some Irish words were among the first i spoke. But. I started school where learning Irish was mandatory and it faded really quickly.

I can muddle through a bit and have almost perfect phonology but almost 100% off my Irish knowledge now is used to explain to people how strange the language is
October 10, 2025 at 10:46 AM
I have a funny example of that. I’ve always joked that my first language is only legally Irish. But I’m an English speaker. I’m not very good with my (supposedly) “mother” Tongue.

Recently found out when i was first talking i actually DID start speaking some Irish spontaneously

I’m Irish but because i spent a fair amount of my childhood in Canada I’ve ended up sounding neutrally “American” to most people. I’m PROUDLY Irish but sometimes have to “accept” being called Canadian by people who insist i don’t sound Irish. As long as i don’t get called American i guess.

That would make sense to me. I paid basically no attention to the behind the scenes so i just noticed that summer and Beth had way more to do after a while. I thought it was just the writing settling in and maturing.

The same people who think Tyler durden is aspirational if that clears it up.

The…current as of the time you’re watching primary voice is hardly an example of progressive ideals and he was definitely overpowering and throwing soo much out there and it doesn’t hold up at times
September 13, 2025 at 9:09 AM
The women in the show are over time shown to not only be competent but intelligent and capable, the show is hardly some feminist masterpiece or anything but Most of what you’re getting is more due to the shitty nature of the characters and the somewhat boys club nature of the writing imo.

If you have a heathy relationship with the outside world it’s a funny if cynical and occasionally a tad edgy comedy.

If, however you saw American psycho and thought Patrick Bateman was a hero to emulate, It’s world consuming.
September 13, 2025 at 7:54 AM
Yup. Dw. I’m just watching with my (now converted to the fandom, my fault) wife and enjoying what i enjoy. Hence why I’m unfollowing certain notable people. Not for disagreements but…Well i feel like mr burns in this gif sometimes and it’s exhausting.
