Executive function.
I was at a wedding tonight and everyone on the dance floor seemed to know what to do with their hands while dancing. I just can’t seem to figure it out.
I’d settle for a non-shy bladder (a social bladder? An extroverted bladder?)
I’ll trade you! I have to pee about every 20 minutes due to malnurishment as a kid.
A properly functioning neocortex.
A functional pancreas. Worked perfectly fine for 27 years, then my body just decided it was evil. Super neat.
Smooth joints, by the time I was 14 I already had clicky joints and now if I stand or sit in the wrong way I need to click them back in
My ankles, wrists, fingers and hips pop so loud the secret police would hear it from down the road and bust me in the attic
The ability to snap my fingers. I can barely make a sound when doing it.

I feel like long fingers would also help out in other facets of life.
Can confirm, got long fingers, can reach the bottom of most jars.
Make an OK symbol with your middle finger
Move every finger except your index finger to your palm as close to your wrist as possible (in a comfortable manner)
Adjust your thumb so it is on the edge of your middle finger closer to your pinkie (this is to cause more friction between your middle finger and thumb)
Press down with your middle finger and then move your thumb, as quickly as possible, to around where your index finger is
If it works, it’ll cause some burning on your finger and a loud noise, you can massage your palm where the middle finger hits if it’s still muffled, it’s likely stiff.
I definitely misread this and thought you said to put my index on my palm, so I was doing it that way, resting my thumb in my index finger. Definitely not as good as the actual method. Absolutely needs practice, though. Thanks for the help.
Which finger do you use other than your thumb? I use my rong finger, but I’ve seen others that use the middle. I’m sure some wierdo is out there mastering the pointer thumb technique
Middle. I’ve never heard of people using any other fiber, so it’s what I use.
A big fluffy tail.

Private jet?
I don’t think that’s relatively minor to most
Public transport would count for USians, maybe cheap flights for Asians
Pleeeeeeaaasse. It’s just one tiny little private jet and maybe one little tiny pilot to fly me. I hate traveling by air so much. What could be less minor? I think you should reconsider.
you can get private flights to anywhere legal for about 40k dollars
Almost worth it. I spent 20 hours getting home (Florida) from Canada, 36 hours getting home from Tennessee and 15 hours getting home from Colorado. I’m finding more and more that the airlines have little value-add and that doesn’t even include the nightmare that is the TSA .
Being an actual person where everything I do isn’t too fancy, wannabe grown, picky, spoiled, or out of my league. I want to wear fun clothes and makeup without everyone gawking at it for trying too hard to look like a real person, or everyone angry that it has nice things it doesn’t deserve. And probably the ability to enjoy music since I lost that after every single genre I enjoyed was either below society or trying too hard to be More Than.
People are useless stupid cunts
Slightly thicker wrists. Skinny wrists ruin the aesthetics of my arms.
Needlewrist Ned checking in
People existing in society in good faith. People who just want the world to be a better place to live, and aren’t willing to shove people down below them in order to get an edge.
Nah, because it’s communism /s
I hope you have a good weekend, my friend.
The sad reality is that I’m going to be fine. I’m going to survive the turmoil and probably make money in the process, because I’ve been lucky before now. I worry for people that haven’t been lucky. I worry for people that have been lucky but happen to be the “wrong” race. I worry for my gay friends that are looking at fleeing the country as an easier alternative. I worry for my trans friend that already has fled the country.
The US has always had problems, sure, but nothing like this.
Oh look, a mirror
Sorry, should I be donating more than 20% of my paycheck to charity? Should I be volunteering for more than 12 hours/week?
What are you doing for your neighbors, you dumb cunt?
What the fuck?
I’m saying that your situation appears to be just like mine.
What crawled up your ass and died this evening?
I think people are misunderstanding your comment. There’s a saying “look in the mirror” which is used negatively when someone isn’t being self-aware. People are most likely taking your comment as a play of this idiom and it sounds like you are yelling at someone to be self reflective. It’s miscommunication
I’ve used that phrase many times before, and this is the first time I’ve ever gotten such a bizarre reaction.
100% why I stopped engaging in activism.
You make a mistake and people always assume malice. It was too bad.
Normal vision.
was trying to figure out what the stats are on vision impairment, and found this:
A National Institutes of Health (NIH) study has found that although 94 percent of Americans aged 12 and older have good vision, the remaining six percent, or 14 million, are visually impaired.
So 6% of Americans are visually impaired, and of those, 3/4 can be corrected with glasses.
that is a fairly blunt assessment. ‘Correction’ is not a binary after all.
After cateracts surgery I’ve got 20/80 vision in my better eye. Technically both eyes.
HOWEVER.
I have no useable depth perception. The retina on my left eye is swiss cheesed with holes and scarring from birth defects. My right retina has a major deflection in it and I ‘won’ the lottery in having it detatch post cateracts surgery (a nominally single digit percentage chance of happening) and thus needed further surgeries to correct.
My eye sight is so bad I can only see 15cm in front of me correctly, and I can’t enlist in the army.
Mine is bad due to my genes, but not that bad. Sorry to hear it.
Hey, I can’t enlist in the army! That’s a good thing!
A very good thing, and one that’s getting better with each election, truly.
a functioning democracy

Hah, that’s hard to come by for MOST people! I’m not even sure Norway is actually a democracy!
