I feel like dating but I don’t wanna drag my ass into dating apps because those reduce you to an object and I’m defo not interested in anyone from my language classes or the climbing gym, lmao
Our monkey brains thinking that ,sure, this seems like a nice box of dude-oh’s but what if I had strolled down the aisle a bit further and found a better box of dude-oh’s? One that also had a small bottle of ketchup taped on as a gift?
I don’t remember where I heard that to be on a dating app, you unconsciously acknowledge yourself and others as mere objects, to be picked or tossed into a cart. As if we could reduce an entire human experience to mere goods you glance over lazily on a supermarket isle.

No, YOU look amazing! Yeah, I’ve also heard horror stories about dating app sorties, like when some sick bastard (me) drenches pizza in ketchup and the whole thing gets ruined.
@DickArmDaryl
I knoww, and like Bri said, I’m high key terrified of people, hence, i feel I have to date within the animation/ visual arts folks cause I’ve only felt understood by people that have known the PAIN of making silly drawings for a living

THIS, good lord, I think t!nder has an invisible ranking system that also buries you if you’re not attractive enough, and will choke you algorithmically if you’re a woman that is well educated or if you’re deemed “unattractive”
