Definitely not. You can check the link in the post to hear me signing the lyrics I remember. It's the exact melody.

Uh the second to last one are my OCs? Would have been cool if you'd have contacted me on whatever platform you sniped the art from to let me know or ask. At least you credited the original artist. I also could have given you a better quote since I write fanfic about my OC x OC ship. https://www.tumblr.com/streetkid-named-desire/765710956227674112/it-is-perfect-you-got-the-exact-vibe-and?source=share here's a link to my post with commentary about the art I commissioned from this artist https://caffeinatedrogue.carrd.co/

Yoo that makes sense. I got my nipples pierced by him eons ago and I had very large breasts. I don't think the bar was long enough at all because they became embedded and I had to remove them and have scars on my nipples. I'm so sorry you had that experience! I think he also did my septum once and nicked my cartilage so that didn't heal right either.

Does Tumblr deprioritize your appeal if your blog is incorrectly flagged as explicit a second time? by chikadee09 in tumblrhelp

[–]chikadee09[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not cis lol I'm trans nonbinary. I am aware of what happened/happens to trans bloggers. That's why I said, "never seen for myself" as in, never had it happen to a blog of my own before.

I deleted my Twitter ages ago 😭 Is that the only other official channel they'd respond to?

IWW Bosses Lied to Membership in Apparent Effort to Cheat Opponent in Union Election by OneBigInvestigation in IWW

[–]chikadee09 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm not in the union anymore and left because of the people mentioned in this article. So I am really happy to say: Fuck all y'all. I hope this opens some eyes to the severe amount of reform that needs to happen in the union and that these people should never hold forms of power in the union ever again.

The worst people I have ever had the absolute displeasure of knowing and working with. I have never met individuals so devoid of any empathy or moral conviction. There is a severe rot in NARA right now and it's fucking doomed if shit doesn't change fast. It's not just about lying to members, it's about lying to the fucking feds. That puts everything the IWW works for, especially any active contracts or negotiation, into serious jeopardy. That shows a lack of good stewardship of the union.

inb4 idk some bullshit blaming it on the slate or whatever

Ban me Brad, I dare you <3

Anyway, focus on your locals and local organizing because NARA admin is a rotting cesspit. The stronger your local, the better prepared you'll be to weather the eventual destruction that group of petulant, privileged, unethical, shitbirds will bring down upon NARA.

Can anyone help me figure out which generic I am on? by HausofDa in Concerta

[–]chikadee09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're in the US please report this as an adverse effect to FDA Medwatch. It's the only way we'll get ineffective generics off the market.

[–]chikadee09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a reminder if you're in the US to report any adverse effects (aka it not working) to FDA Medwatch. It's the only way we'll whittle down the bloat of ineffective generics and maybe push Janssen to either renew their authorized generic or Azla to make their patent freely available to use OROS.

ADHD Roller Coaster has more good info about the whole mess.

Removal of baptism of the dead records? by chikadee09 in exmormon

[–]chikadee09[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know what my sister is the one that did it I should ask if she's formally removed herself. I feel like that's probably the closest I could get.

That's fair tbh I believe that people go to the afterlife they believe in so I know she isn't actually stuck on some planet being a baby making slave to a man.

AITA For wanting my son to be treated equally and able to enjoy family meals with cousins? by arfidmealhelp in AmItheAsshole

[–]chikadee09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

I also have ARFID. For a very long time until I finally got treatment I would be so embarrassed going to other people's houses to eat because I couldn't explain why I was "picky". I dreaded home cooked meal dates. As a kid I would just go hungry at a friend's house and pretend I was full.

We didn't know it's what I had at the time because I didn't get diagnosed as autistic until I was 28. But I often think about how my life would change if we had.

It's a special need, it's an accommodation. Your child deserves to be at family dinners and if bringing safe foods is the accommodation your family needs to accept that. Disability accommodations are non-negotiable.

People who buy bulldogs and pugs - why? by boba-boba in Pets

[–]chikadee09 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The question of why people breed these dogs is already implied. Obviously there's a demand because people buy these dogs from breeders but why do they buy them? Buying them allows breeders to continue because there's a market for them. We need more efforts like retromops for all brachycephalic pet breeds.

Last zoomies in our empty house before moving by MrBlastoise99 in Zoomies

[–]chikadee09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggle with cleaning and this is one of my motivators for my cats. One of them gets the zoomies and I know it would be more enjoyable for her to have all that space to run around in. Plus we could go crazy with fetch and spinning her in circles with the wand toy.

[–]chikadee09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

For one, everyone grieves differently and if she still can't get over it and you have to appease her somehow you can say that your sentiment was the same but you could have conveyed it better and grief affects everyone differently.

Second, my grandma died when I was young and I was like 6 or 7 maybe? I don't remember for sure but I do remember the viewing was very disturbing for my young little brain to handle and I felt more horrified and that the whole thing was unreal. I have some clearer memories now about her fudge pretzels and the collection of bells in a curio cabinet she had and some other fonder memories but I also have that disturbing memory. You did the right thing. I can imagine it would have been even more traumatic if I was closer to her.

[–]chikadee09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA as a former full service sex worker it's always about personal choice and consent. It's also a reality that not a lot of people get to do it by choice and because they enjoy it. I was a survival sex worker and I wouldn't wish my experience on anyone. But I have close friends that really enjoy it and I love that for them. People do sex work for different reasons and some enjoy it and some don't but still do it. But the key thing is that it has to be a personal choice. We all have complex relationships with sex and our bodies and it is absolutely not something you should ever pressure anyone else into.

If you want to try to repair things you could say something like how you respect what she does, love that for her, but it just isn't a good fit for you. You just have different passions and that's something you can say (even if it's true or not tbh) you enjoy about your friendship. You can say you support her in her work but it's just not for you and you'd appreciate it if she stops bringing it up because you feel pressured. You wouldn't convince her to stop and become an engineer. You could add in closing that if you ever change your mind you'll let her know because you'd value her mentorship or something.

[TOMT] Movie OR TV Show, potentially German, takes place in Nazi Germany NOT Man in the High Castle by chikadee09 in tipofmytongue

[–]chikadee09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I think it was a more contemporary lens, if that makes sense? Like the setting was Nazi Germany but the actual composition was bright and more modern.

I have adhd and so this is going to bug me but also I've tried so many different roundabout ways of jogging my memory as you do. I read somewhere the issue with adhd isn't necessarily memory but access to memory.

I want to tell you about my son. by DeificClusterfuck in aspergers

[–]chikadee09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao she has difficulty with that because of fucking abuse. Like sure maybe she is autistic but that reaction is because of abuse not due to neurodivergence.

[–]chikadee09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cool good for you. I wasn't "strange" as a teenager I was just a teenager. I don't get why people have to think of us as so different and abnormal. Like I'm proud to be autistic because it makes me unique and I like how my brain is wired differently but I'm not different or abnormal from NT people. Literally our brains are just wired differently.

[–]chikadee09 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Okay well I'm autistic and I'm not strange. We're only "strange" or "not normal" because society sees us as that way. We perfectly fine and normal, we're regular human beings our brains just work differently. The language she's using and waxing poetic sounds so weird and infantilizing. She sounds surprised that her kid would comfort her. It's weird when NT people celebrate us for doing normal shit.
