that post that's like "learning social skills helps with social anxiety" applies to dating also btw
#i guess they have a circular relationship because also going on lots of first dates was really trial by fire for me in learning lots lf#new social skills#meeting new people was never my strong suit and i was very afraid of it and would avoid it but like!#when i first tried going on first dates i learned a lot about how to meet people and met types of queer people i'd never met before#and actually it was good for me even though it was often weird and stressful#and it was a lower-stakes way to practice social skills that i otherwise would've just avoided using until they atrophied#anyway whenever i see a dating profile that's like 'i'm afraid of talking to women lol' i'm like ok relatable but what's your plan to learn#i think also just like it doesn't have to be through dating but it is good for you to meet other gay and trans people offline if possible#when i moved to wisconsin i only knew my coworkers who were mostly also twentysomethings who'd been hired straight from college#and it was good for me to meet and make friends with other local gay and trans people who were involved in different stuff#idk i just don't know how many more 'i'm obsessed with romance but scoff at the idea that i should do anything about that' posts i can read#like if i said i wanted to run a marathon but i never practiced running people would fairly be like okay that's prob not gonna happen#idk i know it's no skin off my nose i'm just like. if you never take any steps towards expressing your desires#how do you think they're going to just happen to you#personal nonsense

Some beautiful photos from a trip to House On The Rock in Wisconsin. A very interestingly unsettling creative nightmare. A beautiful walk through the uncanny valley.

It was some sort of full size AT machine, but it's been modified into something else. Will be interesting to see what's really going on in there, and what it could be going forward. Cases this big don't turn up every day!

Finally putting the Christmas decorations away. It feels like spring outside which is unnerving mid February so I've got the winter scene going on youtube.
Also thanks Hoopla for having all the Classical Kids albums (including a new one I've never heard) so I can relive my childhood this weekend

The legend of Haunchyville.
Locals tell tales of a secluded community in the woods near Muskego, Wisconsin, inhabited by a conclave of little people. The village, said to be built-to-scale, harbors an albino old man who serves as the protector of these dwarves. Legend has it that if intruders are caught, the dwarves take drastic measures, cutting the trespassers' legs from the knees down to integrate them into their unique society.
The origin story traces back to a revolt by circus dwarves, following their relentless exploitation by the ring leader. In a dramatic turn, they killed their oppressor, then hung him in a wooded area after severing his arms and legs. Fearing legal repercussions and potential backlash from the circus community, the dwarves took refuge in creating their own exclusive community tailored specifically for dwarves. Thus, the mythical village of Haunchyville came into existence as a haven for those who sought escape from exploitation.
The guardian of Haunchyville is the old man who, as the story goes, first encountered the dwarves in his childhood. Stumbling upon Haunchyville, he treated them as equals, and they, in turn, embraced him, raising him as one of their own. Growing up, he fiercely defended the dwarves, earning a reputation for using violence to protect their secluded world, waiting at the end of Mystic Drive with a shotgun to deter troublemakers.
