I adore the feeling of having a snake wrapped around my arm, and would absolutely have a snake for a pet if I didn’t have such an aversion to feeding anything something that still looks like an animal (even if it’s already dead).

I also love watching millipedes’ legs move as they walk and the feeling of all those legs on my hand. But after researching, I realized that giant millipedes are actually a fair bit of work to care for, so I did not end up getting one.

I was eyeing a frilled lizard at a local pet store for quite some time (the entire time it was there), but we don’t have the space for a suitable enclosure for one. It was super adorable the one time it yawned and spread its frill as it was doing so.


I love the feeling of my ball python (Paul) snaking around my hand when I take him out. It's comforting... I also have an aversion to the feeding, I try not to think about it and remember that he needs to eat too, and the animals were put to rest in a peaceful way. :(

That I have the early signs of arthritis; yet, I continue to push forwards

Over a decade ago, I caught a fish that had nothing between the cartilage of its upper lip and its nose, from fish hook damage I would guess. I have not done even catch-and-release fishing (the only kind I would ever do) since then, because I always think of that fish.

I walked 1 mile in an underground draining system while urban exploring, at one point I was under a big road

I don't know how I was able to, some days the agoraphobia just isn't there under the right circumstances...such a strange disorder

Once was able to write poetry on a prolific level; however, I no longer have that ability whatsoever at all

I am very easy to startle but very difficult to scare (and it really irks me when people think/act like those are the same thing, to me they’re as different as ecstasy and despair).

I tried to be Laura Ingalls for Halloween (Little House on the Prairie).

My parents are socially and emotionally reliable.
But in everything else?? Not really...

Had I've been in a lot of social and emotional need, I would've been happier.
But I'm not the right child. :lol: I wanted and needed something else.

They never ever get it right, because they've been as if accomodating the wrong person the whole time...

They... Wasted a lot. Out of cluelessness or some presumption, I'm not sure.

I was never intellectually encouraged. They never did. Or that they couldn't.
I never get to know how to equip myself. They just don't know how to figure that.

And I was almost never heard. It's not like I was asking too much or anything.
But more like if they're speaking another language. More like they just had no clue of things that I expressed.
They could've told me, but... They just don't, because they just don't know.

No matter how much I say it, I don't expect it to be heard even if they do.
They assume I want to be assured or cry or something -- I never needed that, damnit. I wanted results, they assumed something else.

So... I deem expressing them my woes a moot point.
I cannot trust them because of it. I cannot seem to.

I'm way more muscular than my level of exercise should grant. When I was young people would ask what I did to stay in shape, and I didn't do anything at all. And I'm stronger even than I look. Enough so that I've wondered if I might have this condition...

Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy

I've avoided showing my legs or my midriff in public for a long time, but I've recently decided what they hell, what would happen if I actually tried to take advantage of this stupid thing the universe has given me?

I have never seen myself in any fictional character. Not even a partial connection, no.

I share this with you. I've had people use it to pick on me before.

I'll only buy ice cream if it's full price.

I have a brain, and sometimes I even use it.
