When the dog is part possum

There is no snowflake in this world more special than a rich person who's offended that the bartender doesn't want to talk to them
#proofofwalk except it's only half the goal and 2 miles ๐
Not bad for 6:30AM, though.
But why do I, a 25-year-old, now have the aching joints of someone triple my age??? I swear I'm not ACTUALLY a gilf ๐

Another tie from a long time ago, but here's some #NSFW #bondage art for y'all. #shibari for the win! ๐ Don't worry about the bruise on my butt... Be a brat, get the belt ๐คญ

Also thought this'd be a good way to tell
@Paul Jones AIR and
@VelvetBlue_art (omg such a sweetheart and an awesome artist I love her) that I'm back on nostr โค๏ธโค๏ธ
I hope to smile like this, someday...

As hard as I try... Subtle makeup just DOES NOT happen on my face ๐

I shouldn't get mad over a song... But it's Destiny's Child, so I sincerely doubt it's satirical. And the description of the video describes it as "self-reliant" when it's genuinely just about extorting your significant other for funds??? I-- need to take a deep breath.
These are the "feminists" who set the rest of us back to the dark ages ๐
Not the best, but I encourage people to always learn and improve. Subjecting yourself to scrutiny and outside perspectives is the fast-track.

Peaches and cream, your favorite dessert;
I remember it well.
You looked like you'd died
And here was cloud nine
Was it needed to send me to hell?
Peaches and cream, like sunshine and clouds,
Was a sweet summer dream.
But fall had to come
The sun had to run
And the silver had lost all its gleam.
Peaches and cream taste sour to me now.
Do you feel the same way?
Does sweetness bring fear?
Does love scare you, dear?
Is that why it was so hard to stay?

I wish you could be free
From the chains that drag you down
Of that suffocating sin
That claws behind your crown
I wish that you could have
The things that you deserve
A loving, warm embrace
To soothe your aching nerves
I wish you had a chance
To do all that you want
All the things I know
Right now that you cannot
I wish you could be free
Of curses, pain, and greif
I wish you could be free
Of suffering, however brief
I wish you could be free
Of the chaos you now need
I wish you could be free
In other words, of me.
Trying the healthy snack route nowadays... The cucumbers are nummier than the carrots, but variety is the spice of life ๐

People are driving crazy today... I know it's a Sunday, but I don't think we're supposed to get this creative about meeting Jesus
It's been too long since I've done any #shibari , but I thought I'd finally make a #kink post. We need more #BDSM peeps on nostr โค๏ธ

Praise Persephone #pagan #tarot #grownostr

Some drama is more bland than rice pudding run through a wood chipper. Gimme that chai drama latte or leave it at the door
I'm all for the freedom to express yourself on nostr in whatever nonharmful way you see fit. That being said, I'm also free to express that I'm two seconds away from signing off every post with a new pronoun, real or made up, until everyone's brains just short circuits and no one ever talks about pronouns again. In any direction. ๐
My feelings on not being able to attent BTC 2023 are mixed to say the least... So I suppose I'll just live vicariously through all you lovely nostriches. Send pics! ๐
If you want someone to do something, and do it your way, you can approach it in three ways:
1) expect it to just get done, and done right, with no interference from you -- setting yourself up for disappointment, essentially
2) tyrannically, telling them exactly how it should be done, and letting them know that any less or different is unacceptable in its entirety -- may get you short-term results, but everyone will inevitably give up and stop trying entirely when they realize that their best will never be good enough
3) meet the person in the middle, understand how they would approach it and why, and find out how you can make their abilities work for your needs -- avoiding putting a square in a round hole, the person will perform better AND have a greater internal sense of validation and accomplishment.
Nostr, don't ask your art friends for free or discounted customs unless your reason is EXCELLENT.
No matter how small you may think the project is, you are very wrong. Art is hard, and takes a lot of care and attention. To ask for that for free is disrespectful to the time and attention it takes.
Don't disrespect your friends, nostr. Be based. Pay your friends what they're worth.

I think a lot of people date outside of their age range in terms of maturity, even if the physical age gap is appropriate.
Have you ever been told, in more or less words, that someone can't be with you because you're too good for them? Consider what that means, because generally it doesn't equate to flowers. It means you listen, you care for their physical and emotional needs, you're there when they need you and give them space when that's what they need instead. You know, the things that adults do in healthy relationships.
This isn't "society these days" it's not "ugh, women" or "ugh, men". It's people dating outside their emotional age range. Don't change who you are if your problem is "being too good" for people. Change the people, and you won't be "too good" anymore. You'll be just right.
I may not have the knowledge or understanding of #bitcoin to properly orange pill people, but that's fine. I've learned that, sometimes, the first step is opening people to curiosity.
I simply ask people to consider the underlying philosophy. Even if they don't agree with the need, the seed is planted in an understanding of our fellow man.
