reddit is having a glitch where it puts the wrong captions over photos and it’s the only thing i care about right now

I'm a bit of a Grinch. Holiday gift exchanges can be stressy for me for several reasons—the guessing game of figuring out who's planning to gift-exchange with me so it doesn't turn out awkwardly one-sided; being a minimalist who's overwhelmed by receiving too many new possessions; the possibility of inflicting the same overwhelmedness on other people; and the fact that I and many of my friends are tight on money.
This year I've started an opt-in gifting policy: I've admitted all those things to my friends, and told them that if gift-exchanging with me is important to them, they should actively let me know and provide me with a wishlist.
I'm pleasantly surprised how well people have taken it, and how many people have taken my blessing to not gift-exchange with me! I've got my gifting this year down to a few relatives and one close friend and I didn't have to do any guessing about what to buy and for whom!

can i be honest. it's fucked that terfs got to claim the term gender critical. like their asses are NOT critiquing the hegemonic ways that the male and female genders are forced into rigid societal roles and no other genders are permitted to exist, they agree with all that shit. they think it's biologically innate. they're just mad when someone tries to break out of it
“i’m not the same as who i was before [x] thing happened to me” does it help to know that you would not have stayed that person regardless
When the Spectrum™ people at the grocery store try to stop me and sell me subpar internet service, I've made a habit of replying "I'm already on the spectrum!"
