PSA:

1. If you are not silly, it is vital you become silly

2. If you are silly, you must stay silly

2. If you used to be silly but have stopped, you must make all efforts to return to silliness

You either die silly, or live long enough to become silly.

Surely goodness and silliness shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Silly forever,
Wearing a fake mustache and horned rimmed glasses and carrying a whoppe cushion, Because why not?

@lizzard @foone you can think silly while laying down

and make a silly face to celebrate that silliness never really left you, and most surely never will!

i believe in your silliness

While the excellent points in your post, Alice, may be suggestions elsewhere, I for one, am of the opinion that here on the Fediverse, they are the law.

@foone thank you for the reminder. My silliness does not summon as easily as it uses to.
Show threadAlice Averlong🏳️‍⚧️Mar 31
@lanefu Yeah, that's why you gotta work at it! it's too easy to slowly lose your silliness as you age, so you gotta fight it. You gotta work on keeping your silly around, or you'll wake up one day and you're 70 and it's been gone for decades
