if someone starts a conversation with "so what do you do for work" it makes me not want to talk to them, but if they start a conversation with "Hi! Let's have a conversation about something other than what we do for work 😇" it makes me want to talk to them even less
my irl friends keep asking me if "things changed" since elon bought twitter. to which i say no, not at all. that's a ripple on the surface and we're deep sea creatures. it's dark down here, we're weird and deformed and feed on hydrothermal vents
