@SlowRain "We all have lived realities", "third world", "the females". Ugh.

Treating people's real world circumstances as a philosophical discussion in which we're all just dealing with minor inconveniences serves only to elide the ways people uphold unequal systems for their own benefit. Maybe it's time for you to explore ways you can step outside your privilege.

@SlowRain what you're calling a "certain context" is what I call my lived reality.

@SlowRain alternately, people could stop infantilizing women.

Watching a tv show.

Man 1: *makes a comment referring to an adult human female as a girl*
Man 2: She's not a girl, she's a woman.

I have never wanted to high five someone through a screen so much.

I'm not usually much of a selfie person, but I like my hat.

@browneyedgirl that's a great way to put it!

@fobo gentle boops to you & your kitty 😻

Unsane looks like mental illness porn and thinking about the preview I saw a few days ago makes me want to take a shower.

@aimil that sounds delicious. Good morning!

@browneyedgirl now you're going to make me admit to how much I indulge her 😶😆 She'll drink out of anything but her water bowl, so I let her stick her paws in the watering can & lick them off. It keeps her out of my glass of water at least 😅

This is why I keep the watering can full at all times; she'll just knock it over if she puts her paw in & can't reach the water.

@MissSnarkerson ach, I hear ya. One thing I like about hoyas is that they can survive a lot of neglect.

And thanks for coming along on the ride with me 😊

@MissSnarkerson I'm just sitting & staring at them 😄

The hoya no longer has buds... because they've opened!! Welcome, hoya flowers! 🌸
