im really over the whole “funny thing” where its like. a lesbian is like umm isnt it soo funny someone would suggest i might get pregnant if im sexually active? HAH! for you see, i am a lesbian, a title which automatically precludes anyone under it from ever possibly getting pregnant from a consensual sexual partner! no i dont take birth control, silly, what would be the point of that? psh!
like its just transphobia atp and really not quirky or as funny as they think it is. thats all
was originally gonna go with “dog” but decided to go for a longer word with more “reasonable” mispronunciations instead, but that ended up backfiring and now like half the people on this post think i actually pronounce it like this. guess you could say it was a bit of a. a b. it was a
it was a bit of a self-own
READING COMPREHENSION QUESTIONS
why might op have said that she wanted to choose a word with “more ‘reasonable’ mispronounciations”? what could the quotes around “reasonable” indicate? why did she say mispronunciations instead of pronounciations?
op writes that the post “backfired” and now “half the people on this post think i actually pronounce it like this.” what might the word “backfired” mean in this context?
what words could “self-own” sound similar to, and how could that relate to the rest of the post?
last night i ordered mcdonalds on doordash while drunk but i didnt receive my blueberry muffin that i ordered to reach the minimum for free delivery but i s2g i smelled it in the bag and im so afraid that one of the cats stole it while i was unawares and that now theres just a blueberry muffin on its way to becoming a mold lump hidden somewhere in the apartment. but its also extremely likely they just didnt give me my blueberry muffin bc they do that shit a lot
Thinking today about how as someone with major texture issues around most fruits and vegetables, it would have helped so much if someone had come to me years ago and said
Hey:
Make it tiny
Mix it with something Good Texture that you like
“Eat healthy!” they say, and then they show you pictures of a smiling woman digging a fork into half a butternut squash or eyeing a bowl of whole blueberries like a ravening wolf and your spine wants to crawl out through your skull at the thought of that Texture in your mouth.
But you know what I can do? Cut zucchini into paper-thin slices and cook it with noodles and marinara. Chop that spinach fine and scramble it with eggs and cheese. If I’m having a day where the thought of a grape popping in my mouth makes me nauseous, I can cut it in half. My chinese takeout gets diced into tiny pieces and mixed into the rice. It doesn’t work with everything - seeds are still a Major Problem - but the number of fruits and veg and even world cuisines that I can eat has expanded SO MUCH since I discovered this. YMMV, but it’s such a stupidly simple thing to do, and nobody ever told me.
