Kim Rhodes: Dear Bluesky, I need a word for a feeling. Its the specific relief that comes when something is either horrid or benign, turns out benign, but you still experienced a bit of the horror. Like when the lump in the road turns out to be a sweatshirt. No. Not “relief”. I want a NEW word. Please.

The word I use is a ‘thankfuck’.

We will take that to the focus group.

I don't know...what you just said seems plenty succinct to me.

Scarelief? Like Scaroused.

(while exhaling) "Almost lost my happy thoughts for a minute there." That's as good a word as I got. But I'm sure the Japanese probably have one.

We can make it up. Because all I have right now, as previously mentioned, is thankfuck.

Denouement?

That word already exists. I want a new one!

I just had this happen no idea what the word should be

It’s when I’m the most aware of alternate realities. “In the other timeline, that’s a dead bunny.”

Makes sense

Gratiugh?

I say Thankfuckful
