I used to swear a lot. I decided to not swear at all (except for possibly mild swears), instead replacing most swears with minced oaths.

My family is Christian and I would get yelled at for swearing even if it just slipped out. So far, I don’t swear unless I’m feeling a strong emotion or acting impulsively, but I’ll usually say things like “F/eff” or “fudge” instead of the F-word.

I like to be “creative”, so my go-tos are usually “Go fudge yourself”, or “What the cluck?”

I might say “mother lover” instead of MF

This girl is obsessed with Starbucks and appearance and frequently puts down other girls. She often is boy-crazy and tries to get attention from guys at her school, even thinking they’re interested in her if they do so much as look at her.

She often has “pretty privilege” so people still kiss her ass even if she’s rude to them.

lemmy.ca, my instance, is the only one I can load. When I try to browse other Lemmy instances, it just shows a white screen or says my browser can’t open the page.

My character Emma is 15. She’s obsessed with sports and dresses really fashionably, often judges other girls for petty things too. She does seem nice at first, even overtly so, to get people to join her friend group, but has a more complex side.

She’s very cliquey with her friends and will kick random girls out of her group for petty reasons. People often don’t want to spend time with Emma’s group because Emma is there, although she thinks people don’t want to hang out with her because she’s “different” and “the weird kid”, neither of which people see her as.

Emma often believes that people deserve to be bullied/mistreated by her and that nothing’s ever her fault, and has done loads of manipulation and emotional harm towards her “friends”.

Emma is extremely nice to the other boys and wants to gain their attention, often by flirting with them, laughing at their jokes, and even trying to steal guys from their girlfriends.

I heard two people arguing about whether or not someone farted.

Maybe it’s because a lot of them are girls, but they’re like this with guys too. They are very touchy with each other, but it seems awkward if it’s with me.

I’ve asked for permission and they said they don’t like physical contact, so I obviously don’t.

My friends overall seem closer with each other than with me, but I just find it kind of interesting that they make physical contact a lot but not with me (ex: hugging, holding hands, grabbing arm, etc.)

If someone could help me out, that’d be greatly appreciated! I’m not trying to judge, I genuinely don’t understand, which is why I’m asking here. I do understand some cases such as: “Sorry, I only really allow my boyfriend to do that stuff with me”.

Sorry for the random question.

These are not mine, obviously, plus, I’m a lemmy.ca user (so I apologize for posting here) but I did come across

! meliliolinemeli@lemmy.blahaj.zone and !tonsi@lemmy.blahaj.zone which are both Blahaj Lemmy groups for people who speak Toki Pona.
