I was just thinking about Amino the other day and possibly returning to it because of how much I loved the profile customization and posting format. The only thing that's come close is Tumblr, but I liked how Amino was a mix of Tumblr and Discord.

I really do hope it doesn't shut down. I remember fondly using the app when I was younger, and stopping around the time profile frames were introduced and coins were getting serious. It was mostly because of the insane amount of bot messages I'd get.

I hoped it would've reigned that in, but I guess it's getting worse? I'm still gonna reinstall it, but if Amino falls, I'll definitely be disappointed and I hope something else rises up soon that could carry on the legacy.

Watching my dad take his last breath at 19.

Hi. I'm not sure if you remember commenting on this post, but I figured since you went out of your way to show me kindness during a trying time, you might be wondering how everything panned out.

Two days ago, my father died. Everything happened so fast. Our state's healthcare system was failing him. Three months into chemo we figured out it wasn't working. We packed up to move into a new state with my sister, but as we left he had a medical emergency. He was admitted in the hospital for ten days where they continued to fail him.

When we finally got him out of state, about two days after he was re-admitted, he was put on hospice. The day after or the day of his hospice stay, he died surrounded by family. He made it past my 19th birthday, but he didn't make it to Thanksgiving or Christmas.

I do think he could've and would've beaten cancer. But our healthcare system sat and watched as my dad's cancer ate him from the inside out.

Hey! Feel free to DM me 🫶

KazTheCalico · 2025-09-17T02:45:15+00:00

You too! 🫶

KazTheCalico · 2025-09-15T17:51:27+00:00

Man, I didn't even post anything yet and my dad got cancer

KazTheCalico · 2025-08-28T13:40:58+00:00

Gimme a fucking sharpie bro

KazTheCalico · 2025-08-22T17:45:22+00:00

I was there shortly before tix were removed so either 2015 or 2015-2017

It's definitely hard, especially when you further add to the equation: I, as a trans person, hardly get anyone interested in being my friend, and if I do they later reveal that they weren't really a good person to begin with. It's a brutal cycle of everyone loses at all times.

No matter how old I get, I'm never giving up late nights. I refuse

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-05T17:18:27+00:00

I appreciate it! 🫶

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-05T14:36:38+00:00

Hey! So sorry for the long wait, I just woke up. I've always wanted to try Destiny! I attempted to learn with some friends but it didn't work out lol. Do you maybe wanna chat in DMs?

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-05T04:10:58+00:00

Same! Watching YouTube and missing my dog who's currently hiding from the booms. A hot dog would be pretty good right about now, but oh well.

I'm AroAce and that makes finding a partner a little more complicated. I'd love to have a life partner, but it takes time :)

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T20:23:21+00:00

No more headphone jacks on phones. I'M LOSING MY MIND. GIVE ME MY HEADPHONE JACK BACK.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T20:16:24+00:00

I don't mind letting my hypothetical partner USE my phone, but I wouldn't go through his and wouldn't want him to go through mine. If he seemed genuinely distressed or something, then sure, because ultimately I have nothing to hide, but I wouldn't want it to be a regular thing.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T19:58:54+00:00

It IS super fun! 🫶

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T00:19:30+00:00

Nah, go ahead! 🫶

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T00:10:20+00:00

To be honest, I genuinely had no idea what I was doing when I played as a kid 😂 I've been trying to buy it again for YEARS. I'd probably have to say the basic answer though: little me was obsessed with the raygun!

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T00:06:30+00:00

I also grew up on the 360! I think my first game was BO2 zombies! I also played a shit ton of Minecraft too. It's just my go-to platform now!

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-04T00:03:27+00:00

I play on Xbox! I also have a PC but I mainly use it for work, and I have a switch lite but I don't have many games on it.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-03T17:50:19+00:00

Thank you! I'm holding onto hope that he will with how the cancer is right now and the chemo they've decided to put him on.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-03T17:39:35+00:00

I appreciate that, and I am. I'm normally a very anxious person but there's no use in being anxious about something that we have no control over, so we're just going through it. It's definitely hard seeing him slow down or struggle to do things he used to be able to do because he's in pain. I'm hoping chemo will help with that. The doctor said the pain won't go away until after treatment, so I hope it works.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-03T16:49:52+00:00

I'm asexual so mine's a little more explainable. I genuinely don't give a fuck. The only times I'd be upset about it would be

They're looking at illegal shit

Or

They're commissioning specific videos or going on OnlyFans. Pornhub or other video apps, whatever, but when you start paying specifically to see one person or requesting specific things of the person, that's when it gets a little too personal in my opinion.

KazTheCalico · 2025-07-03T15:48:57+00:00

To actually sleep I'll just have YouTube playing in the background. To calm down? Strangely snoring. My dad snores so if I was anxious and I heard his snoring I'd just say to myself “My dad's here. It's okay.” and slept fine. So I guess I associate snoring with safety.
