djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 20/06/2025I don’t think it’s a uniquely DC thing for people to talk about work a lot, but I feel like my situation of dating a guy whose security clearance prevents him from telling me anything about his work might be a little bit uniquely DC 000

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 21/03/2025There’s a real evangelical flavor to how people consume entertainment lately - a need to very conclusively delineate “good” from “bad,” an intolerance for ambiguity, a fervor for punishment (they’re titillated by it) 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 20/03/2025When I took Twitter off my phone, I was like, “Now I’m going to have more meaningful engagement with my COMMUNITY,” but like, microblogging created in me a need to have every observation I’ve ever made validated on a scale no person can replicate, and you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Sometimes when I get a text, I wish I could tell the person that maybe they should try getting on Twitter/here. Any text where the only conceivable response is maybe an iMessage reaction is really more about getting validation for your thing, it’s not communicating anything of worth 100
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Men are always looking at me like long ago I gave them a loaf of bread while they were starving in the gutter and they’ve never forgotten my face, and never the men I want it to be… 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 14/03/2025I consider this virtue signaling lol like first of all your toe cleavage is still showing second of all “no free feet” coming from people who would never actually sell a foot pic is corny 020
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Saw a comment on a nostalgia bait IG Reel blaming “blue state refugees” for the decline of culture in Warrenton, Virginia - not sure how accurate it is to describe people who can’t afford to buy closer to DC in that manner but it must be fun to live in a completely different reality 000

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 02/03/2025The percentage of Facebook Marketplace users selling shoes that actually include what size they are is maybe 15%, tops 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 01/03/2025I feel like the majority of the time that people talk about “good” vs “bad” communication they’re literally just referring to the number of words spoken by one person to another person and “good” just means more words. No reflection on the content or the delivery (an actual communications skill) 100
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 01/03/2025People will invite you to an event that completely centers around day drinking, then text you the night before saying they’re not sure they want to drink but they’ll still come for a little bit (to the event THEY invited YOU to), and then be like, “I’m a good communicator,” lmao 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I bought these gorg shoes last night. The different-colored flowers remind me of Carrie’s mismatched Manolo moment in LA. Hopefully the platform means they’re not deadly painful! Can’t wait to wear them this summer with tiny cutoff shorts and a baby tee or a lacy, blouse-y, fun-sleeves type of top. 010
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 20/02/2025I’m not sure if the “blind” part of Love is Blind is as significant of a variable as the fact that the dating pool is narrowed to 10 options. Usually when the contestants describe the superficiality of modern dating, what they’re actually describing is the pitfalls of unlimited options 100
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 20/02/2025Are skinny jeans back, or is tucking jeans into knee-high boots back? Because none of the young influencers pushing skinny jeans are pairing them with a low-top Converse! Similarly, no one is tucking Levi’s 501s into sleek boots. It’s almost like different cuts look good with different outfits… 000

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 06/01/2025I think it’s dark that “maintenance,” as both a term and a concept, has caught on in the same way that we understand the word “utilities” to mean the bills we pay to keep our homes in order. I don’t think we need to have a line item for looking perfect 24/7, it’s actually not that important!! 000

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 28/12/2024On the train I sat behind a woman and watched her meticulously design her IG story for about 30 minutes - photo selection and edit, song choice, song LYRIC choice, and finally caption. No decision was hastily made or unconsidered; I was riveted by her steadfast attention to detail 000
djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 28/12/2024I took my tote bag off the seat next to me at the airport gate but I didn’t think anyone would actually have the gall to sit there 010

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 02/06/2024My fav TV show rn is the IG stories of a skater I kissed at Helen’s Restaurant in 2019, who has since gotten into “herping” which is like running around in swamps picking up snakes and snapping turtles?

djacidreflux.bsky.social @djacidreflux.bsky.social · 02/06/2024I kinda feel like if the way you’re standing in a line reads more like “disorderly collection of losers” than “citizens awaiting their chance to order,” you can’t get too indignant when I accidentally cut you 000
