A very effective way to burn an organizer out, or at least to get them to not want to organize with you anymore, is to superficially act like you're listening to them but then outright ignore them Also good is chiding them for not providing enough labor (for your action)
Well I know I sure as hell have And transmisogyny too which is even more "fun"
WIRED asked 634 women what they really think about working in tech. They told us about harassment, bias, unequal treatment, and the everyday indignities that still shape life in the industry. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/women-...
My 9 amines? Glutamine Piperadine Nitrogen triiodide Adrena-- Oh! You said 9 *animes*
I recommend you stop telling trans people what they should do and start telling the politicians to advocate equal rights for everyone.

too elucidate the odds of you being didabled someday: they're roughly 100% with the only other option being dying suddenly
Every time there's a news story about a disabled person going through a horrific ideal on an airplane, the comments are all like "they shouldn't have traveled then, what did they expect?" And on top of being awful, it's wild people don't realize odds are they too will be disabled someday.
I wrote an entire RPG based around music as magic and "Conductors" cueing ensembles of Aethersprings to alter reality And yes, I showed my players pics like this to get them into the right headspace!
Just a friendly reminder, you don't need...that shitty wizard series...for references for wizards. If you wanna draw a wizard or magician fight, look up irl photos of music conductors. You're welcome.
Hey if you're going to Nordic APIs in Stockholm in October, I'm going to be giving a talk on why "just put FastMCP in front of all your APIs, it'll be fine" is a Particularly Bad Idea, among other topics Come out, hear me speak, say hi, and let's get drinks afterwards?
One sad effect of how awful material conditions have become is a breakdown in trust Me: I can hook you up with this thing you need Them: I can't afford it Me: It's *free* Them: What do you want in return? Me: Nothing, I have more than enough, I want to share Them: ...there's no way this is real
My radical take: We should have UBI such that the retirement age is 0. Anytime you want to stop working and rest, we've got you. You want to go back to working for whatever reason (want that new Xbox, inspired to do something new, just bored)? We've got you there, too.
I think retirement age is one of the starkest differences between people with physically demanding jobs and those without. The former absolutely do not want to work longer where as the latter find it one of the least objectionable social security fixes.

If you won't listen to me, a trans person who has *actually run for office,* or other trans people making this point, will you listen to him? Please?
"This election is about the threat of trans kids" is the worst possible messaging for Dems yet so many candidates are leaning into it. No voter will flip R->D over it. Low-info voters read this as "you're focused on bullshit that doesn't affect me" while the base reads this as "you're an asshole."

So anyway I'm probably going to get a gym membership and start lifting weights, because the only cardio I like is in games and also I want that Valkyrie body If anyone here does that and has ideas to share, I'm all ears!
I... just slept for like 11 hours and it's been a long time since I've done that Fell asleep on @samantha.goodgirlsare.gay 's shoulder and then she fell asleep on mine and now it's the next day I didn't think I was that tired but, if you do not schedule maintenance, it will be scheduled for you
The Smol is giving other smaller kids piggyback rides and uppies and they have a lovely career ahead of them as a powerful futch lesbian
Chat it's been exhausting seeing cis people fall all over themselves to show all of the varieties of transphobia while infantilizing us, yelling at us for the failures of their candidates, and so on We need fewer "allies" We need some more damn co-conspirators
Gonna stay positive and say Good afternoon lesbians I've got that Main Character Energy, my shirt says so
WTF Converse? And your "We're sorry" isn't enough. Where's the investigation of how this happened? The accountability? The process change? No more Chucks for me. And y'all know how much I love my Chucks, but I won't support a company that does this
As a long, long, long, long, long time Converse buyer, I will never buy a Converse product ever again. I am sick of the virtue signalling to racists. I see this and I see a man hanged, a white robe that could be a klansman's robe and light shaped like a KKK hat. What the actual hell!?!
I have a deep fondness for Highlander (and the TV show was definitely how I realized I was bi) but I absolutely agree that we need a remake where all the Immortals are lesbians
god this movie would be so much hotter if everyone with a sword was a lesbian
also beheading men in parking lots used to make cars orgasm so hard they explode. we used to be a real country

Why am I up so early on a weekend? Well. Had a nightmare that I was a catgirl being slowly drained of her will and put under the control (in all ways) of a post-apocalyptic explorer with a British accent And what was left of me begging me to fight back as he took more liberties with me
Sigh. Look, I was in consulting for almost 10 years before I went to product companies (and now am at the coolest place I've ever worked with the most awesome people -- ask me about GraphQL federation!) and the pressure to say what the client wants you to say intense
