I think you misunderstand the sentiment of white trash. Nowhere did they say there only whites in fighting sports.

I grew up in rural US, squirrels everywhere. Still fascinated by them! Moved to the southwest, was sad there weren't trees and squirrels out here. Then saw my first (closely followed by like a dozen more out in the area) ground squirrel! Some touristy areas they will line up all cute doing tricks for scraps of food. They've learned our oohs and aahs generate treats.

There was someone who asked how to prevent pooping for 3 days and wouldn't really say why. It was very important not to, even though facilities would be available. I do not recall all the details ... Don't know if it reached that, but there was a definite buzz about the communities for a while after and I still see a reference here n there.

It pains me to say that, most Facebook marketplaces are hoppin. Just like CL, you gotta weed out beggars and possible scammers. I've known people throughout the states, at least midewest to west, to have luck with:

Find a busy or busy adjacent intersection, or wide roadside that you've seen cars park on safely. Near highway ramps is popular. Make sure it's safe-ish, good lighting if in a busy area, not on a curve in dark rural areas. We have a wide dirt berm that attracted so many cars parked for sale that a tamale lady and honey guy set up. Out in the sticks, somewhere on the way "into/out of town" gets quite a few passerby and you might get a grocery or corner store to let you park it there.

Then: Brief info in paint maker on the windows (RUNNING NEEDS WORK- CALL SNOT 5558675309) big on one side and windshield then, on a back window or pass side a little more detail such as miles, head gasket is on its way out but there, etc. More serious lookers will prob be stopping to peek in windows and see if there is info like that.

I mean... it's a growing site. How are not expected to go whole hog into a new community we like! Here I am strolling by a week after you but it's new to me, so I'm excited.

What's great is that they are still around, active, and replied. Shows some solid Lemmy staying power.

I am afab, have similar ace feelings, got dates easier because afab and guys are horny, didn't always last long or end well, 'cause guys are horny and took offense to, no I don't care for sexy times please (at least it was common for me though teens n 20s). Have bffs that have lasted decades! Guys and girls. I am in a relationship now, have been for quite a long time, we are great friends at the base of our relationship and he is cool that I am not sexual most of the time (me as sexual, not his acceptance).

My bffs are just as important to me, the elated feeling when I see them, can't get enough time with them, feel so able to be my dorky self when we are together... boys came and went for a long time for me, friends stayed steady. With guys they call them bromances I think?

For me, a good best friend IS a relationship, that I liked better than romantic ones and I think it was because of the lack of sexual pressure that made it more comfortable for me.

So, no, not weird. When you don't have a handful of relationships, the one close one tends to mean soo much more. It is super hard to make friends when odd, especially as an adult. You mentioned she had one other friend at work, maybe they have similar interests since she likes them? Maybe you could try to get to know them too and have a 3 musketeers thing at work? They might not be near as cool and interesting, or bring the same feelings but it could help the emotional flows have another outlet. And, maybe they will know a couple cool peeps that could lead to another awesome connection with someone they know. This is how I usually got more friends as my friends were usually more outgoing than me. They know I use them for socializing and don't mind, part of what makes them precious to me.

Do be careful, emotions can come on strong sometimes and if she is happily married, a rise in romantic or sexual tension may be a push away and that can feel devastating.

I wish I had some better actual answers for you, hopefully someone's suggestions will be helpful though! People generally suck but there diamonds in the rough scattered about. You already have found 2, I am sure you can dig up more, it may just take a lot of time and patience to get the next one uncovered.

Im here, on the other side ladies.

I am a woman well into my 40s. I used to insist people call me by a man's name as a small child and growing up for a bit. I was raised in a very churchy midwest town, only child. The Thought of transitioning, then, in that area, was well kept out by church and lack of internet for us younguns. I barely knew what gay was, mostly from all the folk who called me butch and tomboy, got me curious to find out. Learned about cross-dressing but didn't realize there could be more than my jeans n tees already. Cried so hard the day I woke up with boobs as a teen, late bloomer and thought I'd be spared. And yeah, if I could have been a dude, I'd be a hella gay one. Was very confusing growing up with all nuclear family ideals and not fitting any of them, including their idea of the variety of the gender and sexuality spectrum that "wasn't allowed".

I also wonder if we had the internet media tech, medical knowledge and availability earlier, or was born later, who I might be.

Prompt: A joyful toddler, dressed in a festive holiday sweater and holding a throwing knife, stands in a warm and cozy living room, surrounded by the remnants of a chaotic Christmas celebration. Wrapping paper and ribbons are scattered about, with several presents bearing the marks of the toddler's newfound hobby - knives stuck in them at odd angles. In the foreground, a toy packaging box lies open, its bright and colorful design featuring the words "Knife Throwing for Beginners" in bold, cheerful letters. The room itself is a testament to the toddler's enthusiasm, with small knives protruding from the furniture, the walls, and even the floor. The atmosphere is tense and dramatic, with strong shadows and highlights cast by the warm glow of twinkling Christmas lights. The scene is reminiscent of a Thomas Kinkade painting, with its warm and inviting color palette, but with a darkly humorous twist, as if the wholesome world of Kinkade had been turned on its head. The style is that of a fantastical and slightly unsettling Norman Rockwell, with intricate details and textures that invite the viewer to explore the scene further.

Some friends and I went to eat at a fancy sit down place in our very late teens, dressed to the 9's in black, baggy or lacy duds, eyeliner all around. A couple there asked the restaurant to kick us out, they didn't like our way of dressing, it was rude(?!). Since we were polite and paying customers, the waiter just let us know, and that the staff had 0 problems with us... we should inform him if anyone trys to say anything to us. That staff there were some of the few nice people we encountered in our goth days.

Oh shit! Had to be... surely just a few... 🪦

I think it has cycles. Depends on what pop culture content there is to joke about, as well as writers and cast "meshing".

Oooo.... I looove the guy but, I dunno that I can watch a xxxx rated porno with him in it, not at our age. 😬

Wow... she just said that, huh? Then didn't blink when asked about it, and said it again!!

My SO got pulled over for not maintaining his lane while making a turn, through a newly set up construction area (wasn't there on his way into work, was at midnight on his way home, and, No One maintains a lane out here, ever).

They got him for a marijuana DUI, his blood test came back with the Lowest Testable amount. Like, the residual, not actively high amount. $10,000 of lawyers and repeat visits to court, and the MVD department (they can each charge separately out here?) After the 5th-ish visit on the hearings, the cop comes up to us after, "proud of you sticking to your story" ... then, since he didn't show to the next one it was finally dropped. Fuck the police.

The Temptations tubes may help to get more food in? They have a decent amount of nutrient for a treat product (better than the delectibles) and there are some Churu tubes that are pretty good we found on Chewy too. We just squeeze the whole thing into a dish like it was another meal. It's all liquid so super easy to ingest. Our girl, Dorito, had been loosing weight and now she is maintaining, which has made us feel so much better, hopefully her too!

I like to swap out with the Kung fu Majong movies too. I dont think they had as much budget to work with for them but I still love them. If you like their style (her and the husband), they may be worth a watch.

Yes! The line between adore and hinder is hard to balance.

Ours is 19, has gone blind and deaf (at least mostly, we think she still sees bright light and deep dark shadow contrast) but, she still has one hell of a sniffer on her.

We get some feline lysine in a tube to add a little to our girls food in the evening. Our vet said the lysine and taurine are good for her, may want to verify for your situation. We keep some Temptations Purrree tubes around for an in-between meal hearty snack.Then we found a Bonkers hard treat with taurine too.

And of course catnip, cat grass, and little bits of un-seasoned protein treats when we are cooking (bit of chicken, tiny piece of steak). We'll actually cut a lil pice off and set it aside before we season, then give it to her cooled as we go to eat. High protein is no longer good for her, but she gets so happy for her little nibbles we can't help it, and it isn't very often.

I'll need to check out the Forza, maybe replace some of her temptation snacking with a little of that. She doesn't eat a whole lot at once, and due to a dog and greedy little brothers, can't really have food left to reach easy thus the regular snacking.

Cr.cr.cr.reEEpy and the WEiRdO!!!! (Booming radio voice...) next up on KKKRR your favorite racist radio channel!!

Ad a rando coming across this, yes please.
