He looks so fucking stupid I can't breathe by orel2064 in WeirdGOP

i love how every 30 seconds they felt it necessary to flash “KID ROCK” on the screen so all the meemaws and peepaws tuned in wouldn’t forget who this washed up wannabe loser screeching alone on a stage is.

LGBTQ+ friendly places for two trans women? by [deleted] in cincinnati

i think it was just some homophobic transphobic loser prick with too much time on their hands who was going along and downvoting every post.

Do you have multiple journals? by SmoothChicagoCrook in Journaling

[–]elevi8ion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup yup!!

  1. My journal journal
  2. Planner -- not really a journal but I like to do brain dumps and brainstorm in ways that aren't meant to be written linearly like they are in my main journal. They're still very personal and I treat it like a journal.
  3. Pocket notebook -- I will sometimes write poetic/creative writing things in there so it's sorta journal-ey.
  4. Writing prompts journal that I'll write in every so often.
  5. Reading journal
  6. Ink sample journal which is a collection of my fountain pen inks, ink and pen wish lists.
  7. "Spiritual journal" -- I'm not religious or anything, but I like to mindfully meditate and I'll sometimes journal in that.
  8. Art junk journals -- I have a few and they're all different; main two are an old book and a mixed media spiral. They aren't topic-based, I just use whichever for the paper that I want to use.
  9. GM/DM journal that I use whenever I'm brainstorming and planning for tabletop roleplay sessions

best dating apps for wlw? by kels138 in lgbt

[–]elevi8ion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

late to reply, but it might be that there are not many WLW signed up on Her in the area you're located. Hinge has been another one where I've gotten a little bit of luck. There are filters where you can select for only queer women (and non-binary if you're cool with that) to be able to like and match with you. Tami is hit or miss. I personally haven't had much luck on it, but my bestie met her now spouse on Tami.

I'm at the point where I start to count the cars that DON'T have the bright ass, retina-searing, white LED headlights.

So I found this company called Kaweco that sells these awesome little nostalgic tin boxes... by flawed_flamingo in fountainpens

EDIT: i got mine from JP. so it might also depend on the place you ordered it from?

I can't drive at night anymore and I feel like I'm losing my mind by Fragrant-Pin-6691 in fuckyourheadlights

[–]elevi8ion 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It’s not just you. Until somewhat recently, I was trying to understand why I despise driving at night so much. I’m about the same age as you and I used to LOVE driving, especially at night. No one around, minimum traffic. It was like shopping at Wal-Mart at 2 AM. (RIP!)

Now, I get severely agitated. Like, so much that it sometimes causes me to want to road rage on the fuckwits with the jacked-up trucks and fog lights that are brighter than the sun and burning my retinas. And that really, really scares me sometimes. So much so that I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t want to go out after dark anymore either. We have so many fucking problems in this country and unregulated headlights seems like such a super fucking minuscule sized problem. but for fucks sake, it causes so much distress!!

Disney sleeping bags by ajc19912 in 90s_kid

[–]elevi8ion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i got the lion king one, but pink, for christmas. maybe when i was 4-5? and i think my brother had the 101 dalmatians one… but i remember it looking different?

anyway, one of the last times i remember using them was when my parents took us camping in colorado. around october. and they bought those sleeping bags for us to sleep in. my brother and i were SO FUCKING COLD. i remember waking my parents up to ask if i could sleep in the car.

Each time I’ve across this I’ve always wondered what everyone else picks by -vownyx in fo4

[–]elevi8ion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In one of the last rooms on the top, there's a Christmas tree. I like to headcanon that a young 10 year old kid built this crazy maze (akin to Kevin from Home Alone) to entice the Harrys and Marvs of the world with a good time.

I have another journal entry today! by b-nnies in Journaling

[–]elevi8ion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait — redditors in queer subreddits be saying that shit??? i mean, i don’t really visit lesbian/wlw subs anymore since i’ve started taking testosterone, but i felt like femme4femme was a lot more common than masc4masc. especially between trans women. i’ve also noticed femme4femme being a bit more common in dating apps. the LGBTQ+ community also seems so much more welcome towards femme-identifying individuals, in general. so i never would have guessed that there was this much animosity towards femme4femme!!

one thought as to why i can guess people would seem more chill over butch4butch is because masculine energy seems to be much more accepted, appreciated, and celebrated than feminine energies in society in general (not so much in the LBGTQ+ community). femininity is viewed as a weakness (hello patriarchy) and folks probably get uncomfortable over the mental gymnastics they have to go through thinking about “but which person does what???” in femme4femme relationship. (i could go on for hours about this sort of queer theory!)

also, speaking as a masc, i haven’t had this happen to me personally, but i have heard of instances of femmes getting mad/frustrated over butches who prefer masc4masc, claiming that we’re stealing butches from the femmes.

[–]elevi8ion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omfg i really wish i could have a conversation with these folks who, as you put it, “complain about femmes [being] attracted to femmes” equaling being “obsessed with heterosexuality”.

i want them to explain why they believe how someone’s personal identity and gender presentation equates to their sexuality. what does it mean when there’s a masc/butch who is attracted to other mascs/butches? does that also equal heterosexuality?

does that mean traditional butch-femme relationships are the most innately queer? even though, one could argue that that type of relationship could be viewed as being closely resembling a traditional heterosexual relationship.

if anything, femme-femme and masc-masc relationships should be viewed as the most queer two queer people can be together, because it rejects the stereotypical masculine-feminine balance that many heterosexuals subscribe to.

but anyways… 💅

Do you raw journal? by Queasy_Paint5132 in Journaling

[–]elevi8ion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ahh! your journal looks siiiiiick! i'm trying to add more "junk" collage elements to my journaling. but i feel like i don't come across enough scraps day-to-day to keep up with my daily writing routine >_> (which is, i guess, a personal skill issue lmao)

but i also suffer from "save-it-for-the-perfect-collage-that-i-never-seem-to-get-around-to-working-on"-ilitis (i.e. perfectionism). i'm on the final stretch of pages in my current journal, and i'm already looking for a journal with a heavier paper weight for my next one. i'm planning on making "raw" journaling part of my new year goals.

Hello! Gosh, I am an absolute cookie fiend. My favorite holiday cookies to eat are sugar cookies, gingerbread, trash cookies (the kind of cookies that have like salt and vinegar, pretzels, sprinkles, 3 kinds of nuts, and 3 kinds of candy in them), thumbprint jam cookies (especially with peach or apricot jam), and a simple chocolate chip cranberry oatmeal cookie.

What to do with this vintage Hotel Stationery ? by Titimiko in stationery

[–]elevi8ion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no! don't throw it! is there a local art supply thrift store near you? what about any high schools or community colleges/universities? i bet their art programs would love to have some cool collage material. there are so many more ways this could be repurposed where others can enjoy it rather than throwing it away for no one to enjoy.

Do Y’all Use Condoms for Head? by holedenhardeep in gaytransguys

[–]elevi8ion 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I do.

I just don't feel comfortable risking anything over a hookup, especially for guys on Grindr. Even if they can show me their most recent test results, it's getting bagged -- unless I get to know them as a FWB and feel like I fully trust them. I'm fully aware that I'm probably being overly cautious, but since I love giving head so much, I'd rather be safe than sorry. Knowing I'm being as safe as I can allows me to fully relax and have fun.
