@ilovecats2018 ok, I believe I did post some phoTos in the VIP chat b4, but i'll post more photos later

@ev.sebastian I have actually used this on switch, it SHOULD work, ik textem.net didn't handle AT&T numbers well, but I texted someone on Verizon a lot and Verizon was ok, some carriers work good, others wont show your friend your message.

@ev.sebastian I never followed up bc the thing is, they are a dime a dozen, and I'm on a laptop... not a switch, however textsendr.com should be fine

@Supie-Chan that's actually a pretty good point tbh, I do really appreciate this post, I was raised pagan (ik, never heard that one b4) not christian so I don't know much about it tbh

well, how do I handle this? stop selling things associated with pride outside of it, (and be the bitch who assumes they don't like that sort of thing based on religion, witch feels like making assumptions about someone's score on a math test based on what part of the world there from) or do I just do it anyway, and risk offending someone and be the prick who doesn't respect religion? I feel like I become a shitty person either way

@ilovecats2018 yeah, a whole lot of LGBT peeps hated rainbow capitalism too actually, like, it was lazy, forced, and kinda annoying is the type of stuff I hear a lot

@Biblecampvictim like, more than a simple phrase

@Biblecampvictim can you have an interesting or nuanced pov for this?

@_Izzy_ ok, hmo, in my defense I had no clue it was a Christian store until last minute, not everything I make is pride related but I do have a decent bit of pride stuff bc I was getting ready for a pride event, and I was tryna test the waters. I have seen a preast in a rainbow outfit preaching love thy neighbor at a pride even, and assuming someone doesn't like something based on religion is actually pretty fucked up of me, but I really wanted to see how that interaction would go, the store owner was actually pretty nice and ether knew and did not care about the bi colors or didn't know. I do feel kinda conflicted as I do live in the bible belt and it can be really fucking hard to know what's ok and what is NOT. and honestly maybe the store owners would't mind. but its really hard to ask, yk?

so I make jewelry, I think a bunch of you guys already know this, it has more or less become my job, it takes up an insane amount of time. a Christian store (or at least its full of Christian stuff) allows me to have my stuff there right? I live in the bible belt, so I'm not exactly sure how well selling very blunt pride stuff would be, to test the waters a bit, I had a star necklace but it was the colors of the bisexual flag, nobody noticed. I make a lot of different jewelry, some of it is pride stuff. and to someone who doesn't know, a pink, yellow, blue star is just pretty colors. but I do feel bad, is this disrespectful? so uh yeah, if you were needing me and I'm not/wasn't there I appoligeze. I am busy with more than just this, but this is just a highlite ig

@Jujub_811 yeah, as I said b4 I feel like ''engagement'' isn't really a good thing on a forum. I think she means that it bothers her to see an old post getting replays instead of a new one. I think it has to do with whats more interesting tbh. i'll engage with a 2 year old post instead of a new one if it has more substance and I like the topic more. the idea an old post getting more attention vs. a new one is bad is kinda misguided imo

I have made and altered my own clothing b4 lol, and I will say the reason why i'd only go up to a size 2XL (unless I got a specific request otherwise) and it would take more materials and it would likely cost a bit more to make. so I wouldn't make it unless I had a request for it and it might cost slightly more

@SweetLikeTarmac one thing I have considered doing is selling skirts that are sized the same way mens pants are and then have womens sizes as well but they are longer than normal for taller women. i'd sew them by hand without a sewing machen, and i'd try to go up a size 2xL (BUT i would do a custom skirt if that wouldn't fit) and they'd be pleated and likey 25-30$

yeah, this applys to literally everything, I just used polititiacl matter as an example

this topic will mention pollititons, but nobody by name or party ok? no left vs right just concepts. so please keep that sort of discourse out of my post so it doesn't get locked. ok so b4 I stopped having ads on my YouTube i'd see ads for 3 polititons, two of Wich, instead of explaining

WHY

I should vote for them kept accusing the other one of supporting trans people where as the other dude literally WASN'T EVEN bringing up anything controversial. he actually told the viewer WHAT he was going to do in power (imporove education and healthcare for the poor)
please keep this in mind, if you the reader wants to be in a position of power, instead of bringing up stupid shit to trash your competitor, tell everyone what your actually gonna do. even if I was a transphobe, i'd understand that they are irrelevant to bring up as a talking point bc they aren't really worth my time, I'd be wasting time on a group of people who really aren't important as a talking point. wether you go into politics, or wanna be a senior patrol leader in the BSA, avoid irrelevant talking points in explaing why people should vote for you. unfortunately, I think this type of thing is fairly common nowadays, especially on social media, people will argue over anyone and anything in order to get into power, despite being in the generation known for having such accsses to knowledge, we still fall for talking point propaganda (bringing up irrelevant talking points to try to trash the other person, there's probably a more specific name for this but I'm drawing a blank) please reader, have critical thinking.

(disclaimer, this isn't a attack on LGBTQ individuals, unfortunately, we are used as a crutch in political and non political argument. despite the fact that a gay human just existing isn't doing anything at all doesn't mean an idiot online won't blame them for all social, and economic ills in our society and I am sorry for anyone who might have felt uncomfortable reading this. please take care of yourself and stay safe.)

pov: splits up community by replying

or well, maybe not ''small'' but small in proportioned to the rest of me

literally not joking about the hourglass thing. I have a small waist, broad shoulders, and a large bottom. I'm probably just gonna make my own skirts from now on

today, I had put on leggings (the kind i've seen a lot of women wear as is.) and I had decided to wear a skirt, right? it was a women's size 10. (supposedly 28-31 inches in the waste) I had fassened it up, as there was like 3 buttons and it fit like a glove around my waste.... then, i realized... it wasn't long enough... not in a modisty way... but in the way I would get into legal trouble if I took off the leggings and went outside. it didn't cover my rump... it was likely meant for a shorter person, (i'm 5'9) and it didn't cover anything imma put it in a blessing box tomorrow so someone who's under 5'5 can hopefully wear it and get some life outta it. bc there's no way in hell my fatass is gonna be wearing that again

@maple oh ok
