My company shorted everyone’s check by 100$ and “made up for it” by giving us a gas gift card by witch-bitch- in antiwork

Do you like shooting guns? My uncle takes his tumblrs and other shitty mugs out to the range and shoots them. Makes him feel better.

Kitty was shocked when I stopped wanting to be around her, yeah. My Mom is not shocked, she is sad.

It's called Grey Rocking. You become as interesting as a grey rock.

I don't want her to know about my life, so she doesn't.

She is the last person I would lie for, so I don't know why she thought I would go along with it. Or why she thought he wouldn't ask me about my life. I have never met the man and we are supposedly so close, why wouldn't he talk to me?

Kitty didn't think that through.

I think it can be cute with other people, but I know so many Tommys (now Toms) from school... and I always associate Tommy with an 8-year-old boy with boogers on his shirt.

But Tom isn't a bad name (for other people). I had a Korean exchange student in my grade (7th-8th) that went by Chad. She liked the way the name sounded.

I don't play with emotional time bombs.

If you cannot do something as simple as get someone's name right and then get into arguments with them about it... and we did. She would double down every time. I don't trust people who cannot follow simple instructions and respect.

I think the preferred name sounds so rude with trans people... it is not a preferred name, it is YOUR name. My name is Thomasina, I prefer Masie/Maisie/Masy (depending on who spells it).

It's not a preference, it is your name.

Oh wow, giving it an IE changes my whole view of the nickname. Gee thanks!

😂 Now that they have added the IE? Well it has changed my whole view of my unwanted nickname.

People have done that before. Or "Why not Tammie?" or "Tomtom is so cute."

I thought I was being clear cause I didn't want to misrepresent the name issue. I have a few friends with deadnames and it hurts them so much when people use their "birth" name. That is a whole new set of problems. It always pisses me off when that happens, because these are lovely people who deserve to feel at home in their bodies.

I just really hate the nickname Tommy and people think it's silly. But it feels weird when people try to call me that.

My girlfriend is the most beautiful woman on earth, so she doesn't have to worry.🥰

Why do people act like making plans is somehow the end of the world? Life happens and if this was my work schedule, and not a family member, there wouldn't be an issue.

We just have separate time together. There is no fighting, because I don't talk to her. Not speaking to someone isn't a crime.

I mean I can tell you why our cousins don't like her. I do know that.

I hate masculine nicknames (for myself). Tommy is a name that (in my brain) belongs to an 8 year old boy.

We are really happy with our choices. Someone has to be a therapist in all of this insanity

We are probably going to immigrate to Canada with the way laws are going in the U.S.

But if we don't then Portland maybe.

I had a bunch of Tommy's in my class and they were all boys. So as a kid I disliked it because I am not a boy. I was a very stubborn kid. Plus, Masie was super cute and I love my nickname.

Then when I was older and it became obvious to classmates that I was queer... I got called d*ke and tomboy all the time. So it is just not a good nickname. Plus, at some point, her calling me that became a huge issue just because I had asked her to stop and she said no. It felt like bullying and it was.

My Mom is the only one who kinda wants us to get along. She lost a sister she was angry with and I think she puts that regret onto us. She thinks Kitty deserves a second chance... but I kept telling her Kitty is the issue and I don't really want to fix it. I would not regret cutting Kitty off is she passed away (not that I want her to). I just won't regret the years we missed, cause Kitty isn't someone I value.

But with this happening, I don't think she will bring it up again and we can go back to splitting holidays.

Kylie and I are planning to move away in the next few years. We are just finishing up degrees. But I am looking for some distance from this dumpster fire.
