older survival horror games just hit different for me. i can't play the original clock tower or silent hill either, some of my favorite games that i'm resigned to only knowing through playthroughs. but i wanna get through re1 so badly...

i haven't seen a horror movie that kept me awake since i was a very small child but i have come to the conclusion that i cannot play resident evil 1 by myself. game scares the absolute shit out of me and i say that as the highest compliment

It’s not a plot hole that Elmo has been 3 years old for 50 years. He was bitten by The Count, willingly. Elmo asked for the Dark Gift

playing a lawful neutral ttrpg character is so fucking awesome. i have a strict moral code i live by but it's not about Good or Bad but a Secret Third Thing.

Right: the same cat art but twice the size. The same size rectangle covers only the bottom of the cat. Label: Adult cat contains the same amount of crimes but it does not dominate all of their behaviors

"you've made a living off of being funny as fuck and also have a bunch of chronic conditions that make laughing painful for you during flareups, also your dog just died" isn't the cruelest joke the universe has played on someone in the past year, but it's still a pretty nasty one

i'm very sad jerma is having such a horrible time with his health rn and i was originally going to preface that statement with "not to be parasocial but" but then i realized that's kind of deranged i'm totally fine with being concerned that a nice-seeming dude who's made me laugh a lot is super ill

i don't want to be a proponent of the "give people a free subscription trial and then automatically charge them if they forget" business model but ngl accidentally paying $50 for a year-long atk subscription has been one of the better mistakes i've made in my life

i have been very negative on here lately but i do have a chest update just shy of my six month post-op next week. i have regained some nipple sensation which is exciting bc it is not guaranteed!!! and also not directly related to top surgery but i'm getting more chest hair 👀

lol checking this app after nap and gym to once again see a fearmongering article snippet re: transphobia about something that isn't an imminent threat at all is really assuring me this is the right choice

but no promises that everyone that likes will get the account and that's if i make a new account in the first place. if you post a large amount about news/current events it might be a respectful no, not because you're part of the problem but because i need to guard my brain better.

i /might/ remake a new account that is exclusively for following artists and close friends and conducting occasional horny internet activity, which was the original intent of this account. if you would be interested in following, feel free to like this post.

i miss twitter. i said it. i miss my 15 follower locked account that i had for years and years. this place doesn't compare to what i had there. it sucks, and i'm tired of pretending it doesn't suck. so many big accounts here are self-absorbed assholes whose mutuals pretend not to see it.

i've felt tied to this site bc there is a lot of valuable news and analysis coming from people here, but a lot of those whose work i value have newsletters etc and the way Politics Knowers on here talk about other people esp trans people is really getting to me. it's making me a worse angrier person

hello. i have been thinking over the last 24 hours and have realized i kind of hate this site and a lot of the people that are big on it and it is extremely not good for me. i think i might delete this account in the next week or so bc periodically deactivating has not been enough.

me to my students: so you are not required to work spring break, i am so super lenient abt accommodating plans, all i ask is you let me know to take you off the schedule one of them: i can work my normal schedule for break same one of them: no call no shows every spring break shift

please just be fucking nice to trans people. please leave them alone even if they hurt your feelings a little bit or say something you find annoying. please just do it. not everything needs to be mined for hot takes or nitpicking. it is so very fucking difficult for trans people right now.

i am dealing with some really upsetting personal stuff in addition to the war and the accelerating threats to me and my loved ones. that post and the discourse around me has really upset me in a disproportionate way. i am going to log off and eat ice cream and watch er.

shut your eyes or you'll burst into flames @karhidish.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

i am saying this all very calmly and in simple language because this is what i am expected to do, as a transgender person, always and forever, until i die, probably prematurely.

shut your eyes or you'll burst into flames @karhidish.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

also, i do not think it is a good idea to put up a rhetorical dichotomy between "normal people" and trans people talking about their lives and the very serious threats to said lives. just a thought.

and when a large portion of cis people are doing the minimum and seem to feel that this is sufficient, given the gravity of what we are facing in this country and/or globally, that is actually very scary, because we do not want to die or be forcibly transitioned.

shut your eyes or you'll burst into flames @karhidish.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

i went on a rant against this but then took a deep breath. let me say what i was going to say calmly and oh so nicely: trans people do not say these things because they do not want kind words. the issue is that when you are facing the oblivion of genocide, kind words are the bare minimum.

can cis people on this account stop screenshotting trans women venting to have a Hot Take about it. i don't give a fuck if you disagree with them if they're not saying something actually vile just leave them the fuck alone

i'm going to need the people in my life to stop acting like fucking children bc i am this 👌 close to being at my limit and hitting that limit may cause me to become a real big asshole who says some things that are true that should not be said in the manner in which i will say them.

if i tell you that i'm not in a position to talk about heavy shit bc i'm also going through a Dealing With Heavy Shit era you do in fact have to respect that and talk to someone else! (i am saying this into the void to convince myself, guiltiest feeling person in the world, that this is reasonable)
