I never realize how much cognitive load is taken up by smiling and making the right amount of eye contact until I land in Eastern Europe where my immaculate Resting Bitch Face is perfectly normal.

@evacide Welcome. Eastern Europe does that. If you smile, you're suspicious.

@Szescstopni I have lived in California for most of my life, but this is one way in which I am profoundly un-Californian.

@evacide I'm quite un-Polish – I smile when I feel like smiling. Not usual in the bogs of Eastern Poland.

@Szescstopni Yes, this is profoundly suspicious. I find Poland quite soothing, though eventually I start to crave a giant hippie salad full of fresh vegetables and zero mayonnaise.

@evacide That's Poland. Meat is obligatory. When I ask for tofu in a village store people assume I'm a pervert.

@Szescstopni @evacide not an exaggeration: I once had salad three times a day there because that’s the only vegan item they could think of.

@burtchen This is slowly changing, but if you ask for something vegan you still might get something with a chicken egg or pig fat – be careful ordering ruskie pierogi @evacide

@evacide

I tend to like former Soviet colonies, too. They're not idiots like my people.

@evacide I hung out with Ukrainians and we had a great time

@wendynather I nearly bought this t-shirt in Kyiv.

@wendynather @evacide Even the doggo has RBF.

@evacide Is that because you're neurodivergent (go team neurodivergent!), the extra demands on women, your unique nature? Masking is draining.

Föderation EN So 18.05.2025 18:53:22

@evacide tbh I tend to find myself more socially exhausted when I'm spending a lot of time in groups of Americans. My masking can't keep up
