    Facts. My mom is Spanish ASF and to this day regularly misgenders people all the time (call me and my brother she, call sisters he), just hasn’t come easy to her. As long as somebody isn’t INTENTIONALLY calling u the wrong pronouns for the express purpose of pissing you off u just correct them and move on. If u get that hung up on a simple innocent mistake u need to step back and adjust your shitty attitude.




  • I’m currently sitting in bed in pain no sleep (besides during surgery) for second night in row. Dislocated wrist and shattered forearm, 8 inch I believe long plate (had to get custom made, so I got to spend a night with my bone all but protruding through skin) with 13 screws. To hold me together. All cuz some jackass in a lawn care truck decided to go left in front of me when I had right of way, I slammed my brakes but hit his bed I was on my motorcycle. Flipped over his bed straight cleared it then skipped down pavement like 20 ft or so. If not for my suit I would have lost the arm and had far more injury. I’m a mechanic by trade so 3 months recovery min is going to ruin me.







  • I quit smoking 3 packs a week in favor of vaping a few years ago, and the only reason I quit vaping is because of wisdom tooth surgery. I didn’t really want to, despite knowing I should, as I reasoned with myself that the vape isn’t that harmful. I quit a month ahead of my surgery because I knew stopping nicotine and weed at same time I’d be a grouch and I’m glad I did! Still miss it sometimes and I’ll occasionally smoke hookah or a blunt, but nice not to be feining for a hit of nicotine when I don’t have access.






  • I haven’t used Linux much last few years, used to run Ubuntu. Currently I have a crappy old hp stream thats happily running mint os tho! Poor thing barely booted windows at one point, now its again capable of surfing the web and downloading/viewing docs. Any better lightweight distros out anybody can reccomend?
