Hey bro on a scale of nothingburger to everythingbagel how would you rate our gay sex last night
When I am elected president I will institute a law saying that anyone with a net worth over 50 million must, at their own expense, employ a Jester. They must feed, clothe, and house the Jester according to the Jesters wishes, may not fire the Jester, and may not retaliate against the Jester, as the Jester will have Jesters Privileges.
One must spend at least three hours per day on the company of your Jester, and allow the Jester access to your quarterly reports.
The Jesters will be chosen by voluntary lottery. Jesters will be regularly interviewed to make sure they have not become Lackeys.
This law will prevent rich folk from being surrounded with vapid yes-men. A lot of problems with the world right now are happening becuse rich and powerful men donβt have anybody on hand to say βThatβs the stupidest thing Iβve ever heard.β

This.
This is why people who stay in my life are neurodiverse like me!
this!! I swear I lost like all my friendships bc of this, like I had a group of friends in hs that one day I realized βhuh I havenβt talked to this people in a whileβ and popped in to say hi and they were all awkward?? because they hadnβt seen me in a while?? and thatβs when I realized that friendship works different for them?? I was like yeah I havenβt talked to you in like four months but itβs not like Iβve forgotten about y'all why would anything change, and they were all like we havenβt talked to you in four months why are you here again acting like nothing happened? and it was really confusing for me

YEAH! THAT!
Also I have a thing where I just put the people on pause. If I donβt see them or contact them, my brain kinda put them in stasis. I donβt think about them nor misses them, and I stay on what I last knew about them (how they look, what they study/work). So when we meet again Iβm like βwait, youβve aged?β and I have the same familiarity with them thanI had before.
Anyway all my mutuals I havenβt messaged in forever - this is why
oh my gods this makes so much sense??? there are people who i havenβt talked to at all for literally over a year and weβll pick up like nothing happened, but for their people itβs just likeβ¦β¦ falling apart but onesided???? i think weβre still on the same level but actually weβre strangers??
Ohhhhhh
OHHHHHHHHHβ¦.
Ok but listen, on the other side of this, as a person who moved hundreds of miles away from everyone i knew and then became a hermit for several years, it was SUCH A FUCKING RELIEF to get in contact with an old friend and have him be like, βmy friendship levels do not degrade, so in my mind we are still awesome close buddiesβ and i almost fkn cried. I thought he would be mad or would have moved on because i had slacked on my reaching out to him and staying in touch and doing all the friendship things. But NOPE. 800 miles of distance, depression, and life changing circumstances didnt steal our friendship and i am SO GRATEFUL.

I have literally no friendship degradation whatsoever. I will not have spoken to someone for 5 years or more, and theyβre still as much a friend to me as if I had only seen them yesterday. Iβm just very bad at communicating if someone is not in my direct orbit. So when Sonja reappeared on this site I basically screeched into her notes like a banshee because I was delighted and we picked straight back up where weβd left off.
Happy to go on the record that I donβt expect regular contact and will welcome hearing from people after a long time
Holy shit, I didnβt actually realize this was a Thing.
for me the first time it happened I got so nervous about rekindling stale friendships between me and someone i haven't met for years that I in turn became the friend who's ship degrades. very sad
A cyanometer is a device used to measure the intensity of blue in the sky, often used in meteorology and atmospheric studies. It typically consists of a series of blue color patches or a color gradient, allowing the user to compare the skyβs color to these reference colors.
Do you like the wheel of the sky
Well I like that it doesn't take 5 minutes to scroll past.
Spin the wheel. This is now your highest stat.

Y'know I was gonna make a comment about German "Mexican" food, but that Volkswagen thing genuinely takes the cake. What the fuck.
