I'm just trying to figure out how to make friends and have a sense of community as a 40-year-old. Feel free to say hi. Flirting is welcome. Favorites are nice; replies are better.
I've turned on follow requests out of an increased sense of caution about what I post, but if you are a real person who has some evidence of using fedi and isn't a bigot, I'll most likely accept when I get to it. Bonus points if you are queer or otherwise cool.
I'll accept DMs on about the same standards I use for follows.
@eruonna@chaosfem.tw is my alt

@thehole @oldladyplays My sibling asked my kids to call them their Nini when they came out as nonbinary

@JoscelynTransient I'll insist that lesbians kept mullets alive, mostly because I had one all through the 90s 🫣
Good night, fedi cuties 💜

@KaCi @autistics I really struggle with approaching people. When people have approached me, it generally goes well. But even when I muster up the courage to reach out to someone else, they just don't respond in a way that lets me believe they are interested in connecting. So I can put a lot of effort into people who don't seem inclined to reciprocate, or I can have nothing.

@JoscelynTransient @faithisleaping I always think of it as visibility is necessary, but that doesn't mean everyone needs to be always loudly visible. If we build a world where trans visibility is safe, you can guarantee there will be trans people who chose visibility because there are those who do it even when it isn't safe. So rather than try to shame people into being more visible than they are comfortable being, why not work to bring that world about?

@danirabbit@mastodon.online I got good grades, which is how I know I'm not good at anything

Though if I ever get a job again, I'll probably be able to travel, so you could wait for that 😉🤷♀️
I wonder if we are evolving into a strange new form while we're stuck in here. Will we even be able to communicate once federation is reestablished?
I guess it is not really worth favoriting toots while there is no notification going to the author. Perhaps I should just start responding "This is my favorite toot" instead

Kind of surprised not more folks of that sort in the Twin Cities. I would have thought there were more.
It feels weird to me, too. I can find poly groups, but they are mostly straight. (Not necessarily entirely full of exclusively straight people, but very culturally straight.) And it seems like everyone I see in queer spacess who is trying to date complains about how they can't find anyone monogamous 🤷♀️

@JenWithGravy @Willow I also had some breast buds come in during first puberty. I never said anything to anyone though. I also never connected it with the fantasies I had about growing breasts 🤷♀️

@EmilyEnough @theogrin honestly, I think there is more activity in here right now than out there

In the future, all shitposting should be done in a formal logic to avoid such difficulties

@sky@thetransagenda.gay I have this vision of doing a version of the tarot Fool card with the climactic scene from Gideon the Ninth, with Gideon as the Fool (and probably Harrow as the dog, sorry Harrow)
And then I decided I want a whole deck of Locked Tomb tarot 😅

@SymTrkl @JoscelynTransient _I_ talk about the West, though I might be inclined to put Denver in the Rocky Mountain region. But even the classical Midwest is so varied in terms of culture, climate, economics, etc, that it is hard for me to see it as a singular region. Like, if you are going to include Ohio, Kansas, Minnesota, what do they really have in common?
(Other regions have similar divides, for example, the Pacific Northwest east vs west of the Cascades, but at least they are mostly divides within a state.)

@Willow which, don't get me wrong, I love to tell the story anyway. Transition is one of the best things I've ever done
Good night, fedi

@theogrin Is it going to be shameful to admit that I created an alt account on another instance so I could still get my fix of fedi-at-large?

@PastaThief @oldladyplays My kids have been into The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia C Wrede lately, and dragon gender works that way in those books. (It seems like it may even include some physical sex aspects.) No wonder I liked those books so much as a kid 🤭

~2003 - first questioned if I might be trans
2021 - said out loud that I was trans and started transition (what I chose)
Somewhere in between, I think it became clear to me that I probably was trans, but I don't know when, and there was always some part of me that clung to denial and avoidance.
I've been thinking about this recently because the fifth anniversary is coming up

@what When I was in my twenties, I was kind of obsessed with women wearing cargo pants or similar, in a way that was very clearly wishing I could look like that. Of course, I could wear cargo pants, but i wouldn't get that look because it was more about the shape of the underlying hips and butt. Also, yes, hoodies with thumb holes.

@KaCi @autistics It never seems to get to that point, not when I'm the one to go first. I just wish I knew better how to get there instead of relying on the other person to lead.

That's kind of what happened 😆 We all knew things were coming back by all the notifications coming in. (Within chaosfem. Actually federating stuff was slower.)

@what sort of related, I was just wondering what length of English text could be recovered from just a digraph histogram
