this year i will be going to the doctor to find out if i have fibro and/or eds since I can't rly ignore this shit anymore. but apparently fibro isn't treated like female hysteria anymore and actually has pretty decent diagnostics now, so that's hopeful

wish there was a way to set "use external browser" as a global default setting. i have never ever ever want to open links natively and it's always some hard to find setting

looks like they're finally letting us transes be counted in the census next week. nice of them to acknowledge us in the statistics after 12 years of speculative fear mongering about us

as a coeliac, i absolutely concur. used to be a fucking nightmare trying to eat. the only gluten free bread you could get was like rock, in both substance and taste. the other week i ordered freshly made yum cha for everyone helping us move and didn't have to just enjoy it vicariously

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

if i had a dollar for every prominent academic TERF in Australia who turned out to be British educated and socialised, I'd have at least 4 dollars. Which isn't actually that weird, given the its the colonial relationship between the two that appeals to them so much

people keep comparing The Backrooms to Piranesi, and I feel like that is an insult to Susanna Clarke. I get that there are some common elements, but like, a big mac and a wagyu steak also share common elements.

i do not want to engage with will stancil or his coterie of chart boys, but i would very much like to be put on one of the "uncivil" blocklists so that i never have to see anyone who thinks he is not an insufferable contrarian misogynist crybully who deliberately seeks out negative attention

defeat the most powerful, bloated, overfunded military in the world with this one weird trick: put your stuff in the mountains

couple months ago: let's show these assholes why americans are drowning in medical and other personal debt now: wait what we don't even have the weaponry now either

it's probably an insane dead end, but ever since i learned about GFNI AVX instructions I've been determined to find a way to use it for either some kind of 3d model synthesis (as polynomial symmetry groups) or some kind of clockwork logic simulation

sometimes on here i start to wonder if someone is an LLM and then it becomes clear that they are not, coz only a human could be that bad at parsing basic sentences. then i feel a little sad

now im just a simple atheist, but i just don't think it would have made it ok for the pharisees to stone an adulteress to death, even if the stoning was lead by an immaculate

it's a pity no one who invoked Butler ever actually learned what a speech act is. so many people desperately defensive of their own lives who cannot seem to comprehend the difference between a declarative and a justification

bigotry is when you slam shut the door, and allyship is when you leave it open, with an anvil balanced above. it's the difference between a barb wire fence and an electrified gate

look i get it. we dont rank as a priority at all. us worthless, unimportant ones have the gall to complain when you're not even hunting us down or screaming slurs. we get so upset at such tiny issues like constant, casual denial of our personhood. the nerve. but could you at least not lie abt it?

you guys know you don't actually have to buy a brand new phone right? yes you need a phone, but it isn't actually required that you directly generate demand for rare earth minerals to get one.

scab logic

last job at which i was a supervisor provided no funding or time for training, cut my supervisor role to PT when they promoted me so i had disjoint schedule with my team. a new hire was using copilot to do everything so never learned and had to be repeatedly shown everything, which i had no time for

the modern job market

the magazine is called "them" coz that's the only pronoun they know how to use

xavier renegade angel dialogue

wasn't really a secret though, was it? more of a well known fact that was ignored for perplexing reasons

unfortunately i very much relate to that lady saying she doesn't want to play games and just wants to have a chill hang. sorry, I don't social things centered around competition and learning how to play a game feels like homework to me

many lords in this modern age, and yet none of them fund any almshouses

sorry for triggering you by confronting you directly about your constant passive aggression towards me. that must have been rly difficult

still can't shake that feeling of anticipation, waiting for the other shoe to drop

it's kind of strange being older than the internet and seeing accounts of internet history that don't know a time before facebook, reddit, and tumblr even existed

one thing I've discovered is that sometimes disabled people can be the most callous and unforgiving about it. like some "i push through the pain so you have no excuse" type of shit

i would rly like ppl to stop yelling at me pls

haven't rly been smoking much since i arrived in brissy. only had 3 cigs yesterday and im not even trying to quit or anything, though because i already haven't been smoking much i keep going "do i actually want this cig or am just going for one out of habit?" and the answer is usually the later.

everyday there's a new incitement against trans women, and every day our "allies" talk about how it will harm women who are not trans
