I'm an adult and I still do weird stuff with my fingers. I absolutely cross my fingers like that.
conspiracy theorists gonna conspiracy I guess
I think he's throwing up his gang sign. This motherfucker's a crip.
My middle finger has never bended in that way, and I thing with the tendons being the way they are, curling your pointer in while crossing your ring would be… impressive…
I suspect that they used AI to edit out something like a toy or whatever, and failed to notice.
In any case, fidgety kids is why you take dozens of shots, whoever released that photo wasn’t paying attention
I can do it with both hands. It feels awkward but not really uncomfortable. for whatever that's worth
I find it incredibly easy to do. It's mildly uncomfortable to get my middle finger in that position, but once it's there, curling my index finger is no harder than usual.
E: picture of my hand doing the thing
I do weirder shit as a stimming thing too
Not sure if these images are going through everywhere, so maybe have a look at my instance?
And the second one
Can confirm I can't see the images on lemm.ee. And your links require people to sign up for your instance to actually view them.
Hopefully this link works. It does for me at least.
E: oh, for future reference, I was able to get a working link by going to your instance and clicking Copy Mbin URL instead of original URL
