On a dating app. Bumble or Plenty of Fish or Coffee Meets Bagel. I no longer remember.

I had just finished college and had proof and confidence that I had shed my desperation and insecurities. I was excited to date. Had intentions of dating a lot, sleeping around, finding a cool, low commitment consistent FWB or something.

I was set to be a menace and enjoy my heaux phase.

Tinder was full of bots, so I tried a few different apps, meta few girls, but hadn't really hit it off with anyone. I knew I liked weird/off kilter/nerdy girls. That much was certain.

So when I saw her tagline, which specifically asked for facts about a certain, semi obscure animal, I (excuse the pun) pounced And that was the greatest mistake I ever made.

She was a weirdo, to be sure. But like, a cool one. Self-confident. Curvy. With similar cultural experiences as me and a lot of similar interests and tastes. And I like the way she thought about things. She felt the same way.

After our second date I didn't wanna talk to other women. I didn't wanna play the field or sleep around or build a ho-tation. I just wanted her I wanted her to like me, to think about me, to want me too.

We've been married for 6 years now. She's still a lil goofy. Still very charming, very curious, and chubby curvy, and the person I most wanna hangout with on any given day.

It's the NSFW Content. TBH.

The artists who draw the art/topics/proportions I'm into, and the IRL models with those proportions, don't exist on Mastodon. If they do I haven't found them. So Twitter still gets my horny clicks cause that content doesn't exist elsewhere.

It's tough finding a question inconsequential enough to avoid raising their defenses but meaningful enough to elicit a real, useful response

  • "What is your biggest pet peeve that other people do?"
  • "How would your friends/coworkers/SO describe you?"
  • "What are you excited for?"

I think being able to draw a line from your classic albums to your modern hits is hella cool. Your list makes a lot of sense.

Nah that's exactly what i was looking for. Recommendations. I.listened to the album all the way thru and bounced off, so i figured I'd ask a fan next time i saw one.

Good looking out.

I bet you have some hella interesting workplace stories and hella banal, mundane ones

Found this during the Reddit diaspora. Tried it for weeks. Left. Came back once a month. Still not committed to this place but i still check in and post.

Too much FOSS/Linux evangelism here. Still too little activity in communities centered on my interests. The vibes are... not great here but I'm not giving up on it. I just don't think "my" people are here yet

"Going up to heaven on an escalator/ Cause they sent you to hell on an escalator"

Or maybe

"I look like a dick in my picture ID/ But also the pic isn't me. Hmm"

Street Fighter 6

Guilty Gear Strive

Vampire Survivors

Thanks all! I appreciate everyone who answered, especially those who provided a meaningful or nuanced response.

I framed my question in a specific way for a specific reason and got very useful insight about the vibe here, including how people interpreted the question.

Is the "woke" in the room with us now?

No worries; you asked a genuine question and got a genuine answer haha.. My wife is awesome and the best partner i could ever ask for, so I'm ahead of the game in that regard

There are some tragic omissions here but i think i could make do with these 10.

  • Spirit World Field Guide - Aesop Rock

  • Good Kid M.A.A.D. City - Kendrick Lamar

  • Run the Jewels 3 - Run the Jewls

  • The Missing Man - AFI

  • Downtown Battle Mountain - Dance Gavin Dance

  • October Forever - Driveways

  • Gun Mouth 4 Hire: Horns & Halos 2 - Andre Nickatina

  • Divisi - A Lot Like Birds

  • Dedication 6 - Lil Wayne

  • The Melody and the Enigmatic Nature of Volume - Evans Blue

I don't know how to appreciate Fall of Troy outside of F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. and its unpronounceable original version. Even seeing them live (they opened for Alexisonfire) left me feeling like i was missing something.
