    You forgot the frame where he starts talking about his problems and the frame after where he is told to stop trauma dumping.

      Nah, see, the flaming skull is actually a good person and willing to lend an ear, despite not having any.

      True, Rarely anyone wantsnto actually know how you have been. Just a question to start a conversation like a greeting.

      So I just default to “fine” or “it has to” (makes more sense in german).

        Depending on how well I know the person I’ll say something like “slowly going insane, but it’s fine”

    You’re so visibly not okay that a flaming, disembodied skull is asking if you’re okay.

      Honestly given all the shit I’ve been dealing with the past couple of weeks, yeah. If a disembodied flaming skull appeared at this point I’d just be like “sigh alright. What now?”

              I wouldn’t say most lol I only post in the meme-y area, and even then that’s specific. But it does mean something. Honored, all the time, when someone reacts with “Holy shit, Stamets!” stuff. Even more so if I’m just talking with them. There are a couple people I talk with on Discord that at first acted like I was a celebrity. I just post memes to distract from my own problems. The fact anyone cares is deeply deeply humbling. Trust me on that <3

      I go with “relatively speaking”. No one asks what it’s related to.
