bluesky is the methadone for twitter detox
ok my kids each ranked their top 10 episodes of Twilight Zone season 1, and I've tallied the results, for @monodevice.bsky.social's son's first Zone-a-thon
weird I can tell when my nervous system is re-regulated when I start whistling
urbit does have a twitter clone but I don't know anyone over there 🥲
irl planting vegetables making me want to play stardew valley
weird when ppl say "oh yeah I messed up... and *I own that*" like what does "I own that" even mean ppl just be saying unfalsifiable things and disarming other ppl
u ever just "watch" a tv show with someone else by defocusing your eyes in the direction of the tv
guy wants autistic gf for "shared interests", imagines: "we'd share the interesting parts of our days and discuss, then watch a movie..." and not: she talks about the same topic for 15 mos straight relates every convo back to her topic her interest in video games extends only to farming rpgs
I want to take a week off work to just do little projects that are basically the same as work but aren't

wow, kids' extracurriculars sure do cut into your love is blind time 🙄

"she keeps me on my toes" has got to be the biggest cope of all times
there aren't really solid norms online for a lot of things like I will often notice e.g. from post tone if someone is depressed, or having a hard time, or if a couple is thinking about getting engaged, etc irl there are like norms for the kinds of things you can bring up with people but idk here
huh had thought Love is Blind was like Love on the Spectrum but w/ blind ppl

when there's a positivity bias, it benefits people to say positive things even if it's bad for the person hearing them e.g. false encouragement, setting up unrealistic expectations, no "real talk" etc consider a 'mean girl' saying "no that dress isn't too slutty, you'll look so cute!!"
pls bluesky devs if you do make polls, allow 5 options (and/or 4 plus a default "show results")
cant wait to get invites so I can go back to twitter posting like "who need they bluessky invate"
