    That’s a question my very partner asked me! It’s hard, and I think everyone has different terms they prefer. In my case, I love to know how the other person see me, what characteristics they like about me. So I’ve got my fair share of weird/wonderful nicknames, and they’re special because each person made a little story about it, you know?

    But, some of the more usual ones are honey, babe, love, sweetheart. I love when people see me as soft/caring, so I quite like those! 💜

    Now, talking as someone who has lots of enby friends: ask them! I’ve seen some people say that asking feels weird or forced, but I think it’s a way to show you care about them 💜 I’m glad when people ask me how I’d like to be called, because they’re being thoughtful of how I feel, and really, that’s a huge green flag to me :D






  • My neighbor has one parrot, and it’s her baby! I think she had it for more than a decade now, and it’s beautiful to see him flying around the apartment (it’s a big place, and all the windows are screened, so he’s free to roam around), but it’s such a commitment.

    I actually started socializing with them because when I moved in they sent me a small basket with snacks and stuff, with a letter explaining about Kiwi (the parrot), and how he can be a bit loud sometimes.

    I don’t really mind tho, I actually love hearing him sing, joke, laugh. Such a happy bird!








  • I’m really enjoying the fediverse, not only Lemmy, but Mastodon as well. I was mostly a lurker on Reddit, but seeing this smaller space makes want to contribute, to interact more. It’s been a bit hard to wrap my head around some concepts, I’m feeling like my parents discovering social media for the first time lol.

    My biggest gripes so far are the app, and the lack of niche communities. I play lots of smaller, niche games, and it was nice having little cozy spaces to talk about them. And the app, I use Jerboa on my phone, and it still feels a bit rough, but I’m sure this will get better as the platform matures, and we get some more 3rd party alternatives. Hell, it might be a good incentive for me to finally study mobile development :D
