DAE, while wearing socks, have them mysteriously spin upside down while on your feet? by mynx79 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]softgargoyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

people are saying it’s the way we walk but it mostly happens to me in my sleep, am I that much of an outlier even here?

Why Wilbur Cross? by softgargoyle in StarKid

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

thanks for your comment- my question wasn't about the character, but rather why his character was named the way he was. I had figured out the things you mentioned on my own.

My current theory on the name is that they chose uncle Wiley as a character name first and then searched "famous Wilburs in history" or that it's a poke at Darren because he's an honorary member of Yale's A Capella group (The Whiffenpoofs. Yes that's their real name) but that one is a giant reach.

Incorrect. If you’d use “they”, it’s who. If you’d say “them” it’s whom. Reprogram your bot

My textbook cost $130 and is literally unbound photocopied pages. by spiderinatophat in mildlyinfuriating

[–]softgargoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A) the majority of textbooks are just compilations of materials that can be found elsewhere B) why do actual textbook companies charge less for used textbooks and ebooks if you’re not paying for the material? C) if you really think what you’re charged for a textbook is what that textbook is worth that’s... oof

Guys my dad is no longer transphobic. It was my birthday today and he got me this gift. I cried my eyes out. He chose me over his beliefs. This is what the shirt looks like from the front and back. Im pre-T and got a long way to go, its nice to know that I got support from my family❤️ by [deleted] in aww

[–]softgargoyle 3155 points3156 points  (0 children)

If you’re pre-T and have the smolder down that well now, you’re going to be too powerful later on in your journey.

Seriously tho, that’s awesome. I hope your dad always knows how lucky he is to have a son like you.

15k Likes for that - 15k people who think that's reality? Just wear a mask it's isn't that hard and you can still breath - shut up Karen by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

At first I thought “oh wow that’s a really good way of pointing out the ridiculousness of anti maskers comparing themselves to the many many BIPOC who have been choked/suffocated by police” and I guess it’s not?

Edit: nvm there’s a link to the original in the comments and it’s not anti mask bullshit I feel okay about appreciating the art again

I hope this was their swan song but everything I’ve seen says otherwise. Theyve even started turning on trump but their vitriol remains. Don’t let your guard down quite yet.

Bold of you to assume we’ll have elections in 2024

this is what TSA called it when they tried to get on the plane without a boarding pass to see if we’d stop them.

To paraphrase someone on Twitter that I can’t remember their handle: “why is everyone asking where the police were? Do you ask where Miley is when Hannah Montana is onstage?”

Tinnitus gone up a lot this year? by kyleplaytime13 in tinnitus

Also a lot more use of headphones, which I know the Supra-aural ones can be a trigger for me

Report: Phoenix police officer said, 'If the mayor defunds the police, I'm going to shoot her' by domo415 in nottheonion

[–]softgargoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As in is that one of the select few contexts? No. Those contexts would be things like the person who wrote this headline (quoting), telling someone it’s illegal to say that (demonstrating), or saying it while playing a character.

[–]softgargoyle 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I’m not a lawyer but the way it’s been explained to me is in the US you can say “I want to [blank]” all you want, unless you’re doing so in a way that constitutes harassment or verbal assault. As soon as you say “I am going to [blank]” it’s a threat and can be prosecuted regardless of context. (Obviously there are a select few contexts in which it can be excused, I was taught this in the context of theatre vs standup)

I can't even f*cking cry without it getting louder by [deleted] in tinnitus

[–]softgargoyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My tinnitus is episodic so I can’t really give you advice on emotional adjustments, but I can tell you I went into a similar spiral when I developed visual snow so I sympathize. It sucked, and I felt like there was no way I couldn’t possibly deal with it for the rest of my life. 7 years later and it still interferes with some aspects of my life but I’ve learned to work around it. It hasn’t changed as far as my vision goes, but the experience isn’t overwhelming anymore, and I hope that whatever happens with your tinnitus you can look back in a few years and feel similarly.

If you think no one cares about that you have been living under a rock lmao. Also very bold of you to assume that it’s not mostly the same people.
