Nobody wearing a hoop dress that fancy ever did manual labor of any sort.

A great place to store farts though.

IIRC Wasnt there a subreddit on reddit that took images like theese and photoshopped and or drew the girls in the image as a yuri / lesbian couple

I'd like that here on lemmy

Edit: I originally assumed the original image under the caption was negative but now I'm not sure

Yeah, I think they did yaoi too. We'd need a sizable artist community (or a sizable community at all, to start with) to sustain something like that though.

I'm actually interested in learning art myself but am currently stuck procrastinating due to bad posture causing body pain which I'll have to learn to fix

Ok, but do yall know the thing with bridge ladies?

They're a different breed. Grandma was one. They love rules, they love being mean girls, they are cliquey.

When started working at retirement places seeing all the different flavors of my grandma at that table was spooky. Drinkers and smokers the lot lol

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Ew smoker :(

So what you’re saying is that the gal on the right knows how to have a good time.
