awwwwwwwee, yes i admit twitter is so affirming, like for better n for worse, reminds me that truly there's inner light unique specialness in every single person
def not too fluffy, i love floof 😍 maine coons are great... only thing is i'd want to acquire any pet by adoption not by adding demand to breeders when there are homeless kitties in the world
hah im 38 it's not a big secret and imo there's still so much life ahead of me! but i know i'm old vs avg tech twitter user
aww thanks, and i did once try to quantify this but it seemed kinda narcissistic and also not accurate... idk why i am who i am except random luck of birth & experiences
awwwe maybe make an alt? tho i personally feel a sense of purpose wrt being open abt my diagnosis so ppl can have firsthand reference when they start talking abt politics of mental illness
assuming i get to come back after that day and share what i learned, i'd go like 500 yrs into the future and hopefully we're thriving w ASI and i can report back to the AI safety ppl that they can stand down?
it's random coolness, not all mental health related but like, cool group of women who relate in a lot of random ways and I'm happy to be getting to know them better
hmm, hard to answer, i'm kinda neutral... relieved i've made it this far and have optimistic daydreams for the future but no it doesn't seem certain
lol when i'm designing a new system w big group of smart clients, too engrossed in solving the problem to be worried abt appearances
sorta? i have two types kinda, but i think ideal match is somehow a synthesis of them? one type is quiet sensitive intuitive intelligent and the other is like take-charge wordcel product daddy who genuinely wants me to be happy
i have distinct memory of first days of first iraq war, watching on tv at my grandparents' house as the soldiers invaded wearing gas masks... made me kinda sad to think abt the tragedy of conflict getting to that point and i had superhero dreams abt being able to stop war
yes and no? i spend a lot of time physically alone but also get a lot of pleasure from socializing on twitter... irl isolation has always been more my choice bec i feel like ppl don't get me, not bec i ever felt rejected/excluded
i don't have a strong pref, is one of those things i've avoided getting into bec it seems like a possible nerd-snipe
i think the first twitter acct i made was to record my early guess that crystal city would win hq2, but then i ended up deleting that acct so 🤷♀️ ... i really started using it after covid shut down irl socializing and i got kinda bored w the arlnow comments section
i'm not sure what this means- clarification plz?
i drink bec it tastes good n is fun n i've tried not drinking and can't tell the difference, like i don't feel any better (tho i acknowledge cancer studies, sigh) i don't take mood stabilizers bec they are a hassle and have side effects and not much of a positive effect for me?
hmm my horse Jake tbqh
lol 🥰 🤷♀️ i think i'm just old
38
salty deliciousness as always 🫶
awwww thanks, hope you are too!
i'd go on a date yes; but i'm kinda skeptical if it'd work out, i don't wanna be "mommy" and i like wisdom of experience more than innocence
it's tough bec i was very shy and sad abt the world and felt trapped by the system that didn't see me as an adult... I'd prob say to spend more time outdoors and to try xanax much sooner
38 and i've been coding since age 12, did a cs degree and then career, fave proj is maybe when i rewrote pcap data stream ingest from postgres stored procs to early hadoop map reduce jobs?
yes it's possible, but also a big ask?
yeahbipolar 2, also social anxiety per my chart tho idk... i took 200mg of wellbutrin SR for years but have been off it since this past summer... i do try to take vitamin D bec seems to help w seasonal depression and recommend to anyone who feels like winter is a struggle
hah first time just now and took a pic of her reaction
no, sigh not particularly... I chose it bec the vibe feels representative but no I don't particularly look like the pic
hm seasonal pattern but not always, falling in love w someone new can feel a lot like hypomania but that hasn't happened in a while
occasionally, mostly as background, last show was Versailles, love the music n costumes n sets
Dirt to Soil, which arrived in the mail today... much to learn abt regenerative agriculture!!!
hah yes I'd like them, DM me ig for my address?
awwww thanks 🫶
hah probably, I feel more free to follow or not if someone doesn't follow me back, like I assume they wouldn't be offended to receive the same treatment they're giving?
awwwwwwww 🥰 I kinda wish I knew who sent this but otoh it's fun to just assume several ppl might have 🫶
😅 it would help to know who this is! I follow ppl for lots of reasons, unfollow if a tweet irritates me and I can't remember why I followed in the first place... tho there are a few ppl i unfollow just to +/- following count by 1 lol
yes haha... if you mean romantically, I do sometimes tho less often than men, I haven't had a serious gf but I'm open to the possibility
😳 hah i mean... I'm happy to be mutuals w all y'all 🫶
I feel quite settled lol, and working on becoming moreso w building my dream home! if this is euphemism for get married, I've given up trying to expect or plan it, but maybe?
a bit, I sometimes attend Quaker meetings, but one of the reasons I prefer them is that it's like, minimum viable theology... I don't have a lot of faith in the supernatural
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 so many thoughts
this is a good question!!! I guess I'm not acting my age somehow?
hah it's someone who follows me so I feel like I shouldn't say toooo much 🤭
aww thanks! I agree frequency != depth, there are some accounts on here I really love who very occasionally say very insightful things
depends on the day and they're better together... but I guess I'd pick companionship if I only get one
