  • I don’t do it because my stuck-in-the-sixties workplace doesn’t allow “unnatural hair colors”. They also still don’t allow men to have long hair.

    The “no visible tattoos” rule just got rescinded, because there was no one left in the city who would work here, and we needed to hire people.

    And why do I still work there? Because I need money to pay the rent.

    I agree that forced whimsy would be the worst.

    But right now it feels like society is forcing seriousness. “Grow up.” “Act like an adult.” As if silliness is the opposite of being an adult. I’m not a fan of that either.

    Some days we should have chocolate cake for breakfast. Just not every day. And not because we have to.

    My bf’s dog licked my face one time, so I licked his face as a response. His expression afterward was…a mixture of startled and appalled.

    I told him if he does it as a sign of affection, then I can too. I’m not sure he bought it.

    I can’t bring myself to mock something that someone probably made out of genuine love. It makes me too sad. No matter how much of a piece of shit Charlie might have been.

    Mocking it feels like the opposite of empathy. I know how much he didn’t believe in empathy, but as usual, he was wrong. So I’m displaying some. Not for him. But for whoever made this for him.
