  • I dreamt once that I had a random Grindr hookup, and he showed me a brand new third hole that everyone has but nobody knows about, and then he proceeded to break that hole like he was trying to break my spine (hole was on the lower back)

  • Honestly, I like Pulaski. Until she called Data Data, that went too far. His name is Data, not Data. That's just insulting. It's like called an Andrea Andrea, it's just rude.

  • I've been watching this tatting YouTuber for a bit now, and I'm loving it. I love fiber arts in general, and tatting seems super fun

  • Growing up in baptist churches in the south, I grew up hearing "near east" for Israel and surrounding, and middle east for basically everything else that wasn't "the orient"

    Mideast is newish to me, and the other two terms I haven't really heard since I was a kid in the 90s/00s.

  • So, in my experience, it's less unhygienic, and more a problem with not covering up their natural smells. Sounds similar, different things. I'll explain me experience with TTRPGers.

    All the ones I know who fall into the funk trap are autistic folk, and the issue isn't that they don't bathe, it's that they can't stand those strong chemical smells they associate with body washes and deodorant*. So they bathe, but they use mild soaps, soaps designed for children, or unscented soaps, and they don't wear deodorant.

    Which creates a situation where the hygiene is okay, but the funk is still there, once they're all in a group together. One on one, you really don't notice, but get 10 folks in a room for game night, or a couple thousand together for an event or convention, and the funk becomes overpowering.

    That said, I do know two that have just a general aversion to bathing, and consistently reek

    *Edit to add

    Also an issue with texture on the skin. One of my best friends is autistic, and he cannot handle the feeling of deodorant on his armpits. It tacks the hair down, it's apparently sticky feeling, and he just goes into total meltdown until he can get it off. He can't focus on anything else.

  • Let's not mock people with genuine medical disabilities, okay? Dude has to wear a diaper because his dick doesn't function correctly. The big truck=small dick thing is funny on the surface, but genuinely, all it does is continue to stigmatize people based on a part of their anatomy that they have no control over. Mock the fragile masculinity of big truck dudes all you want, but mocking people for their appearance or their bodies is just not cool.
