8 days left, y'all. and it’s my birthday, me being ilana. thanks for being a part of my 26th year, Chronic Gamer Girl is a nourishing experience for me, and if you’re reading this and know the show (honestly, i don’t mind if you don’t, even!) i appreciate you being virtually with me. looking forward to the 27th with y'all, ya crazy, stoner kids. love you!
2ps who’d try to stop their s/o from wearing revealing clothing:
2p!America- What can i say? He just gets jealous very easily, and if he caught another guy staring at you, he’d be likely to punch them. To avoid situations like that, that could potentially put you in danger too, he prefers to ask you just to wear more clothes (although, he’d respect your decision ultimately, even if he disliked it.)
2p!Italy- Quite similar to Alan, really, he’s just a very jealous guy who’d rather be the only person to see your skin. If you wore something revealing anyway, he’d accept your decision, although he’d cover you with his jacket as you walked and put on his best killer glare to warn other guys off.
2p!France- Simply because he’s a testosterone-fuelled monster, he believes all other guys are like him. So when he sees other guys looking at his s/o, even when she’s dressed up to her neck in thick winter clothes, he just knows that they’re thinking of undressing her. He certainly doesn’t want to help them do this, so he tries to push her not to show too much skin in public, or if she really wants to, he stays close by her at all times to make sure nobody tries anything.
This is funny, obviously, but even if you don’t go to the extreme of the example above, this is a separate seat for one person, with a back and 4 legs:
But it’s not a chair. It’s a bar stool.
This, however, are all chairs:
Each one is missing at least one component of the chair definition above.
So like… it’s almost like strict definitions are exclusionary.

It’s an ongoing joke in my friend group that it’s basically impossible to define a sandwich. The group chat is filled with “wait….are quesadillas a sandwich? Are dumplings a sandwich? Are hot pockets a sandwich? Are uncrustables a sandwich? Are ravioli a sandwich?”
And it’s a fun game because you can always argue either point- trying to draw strict definitions is always going to include some non-sandwiches and exclude some totally-sandwiches. Real life things always have edge cases and exceptions.
The game becomes less fun when bigots are trying to use it to attack trans women, but the principle remains. Very few things in life can be strictly defined without this inclusion/exclusion problem.
“Nowadays, unless they are A.) Team Tutberidze, B.) a Russian, C.) a Japanese, or D.) an American, no one talks about them! There are so many lovely skaters that I would love to hear more about, but I never hear about them unless they fit in one of those boxed-up categories.”
