@npub1gtf…dvvf BADASS!

I had such big plans for pie day this year, and they all fell apart.
...like a crust with too much butter, there, are you happy, there's the punchline we all could feel, lurking at the end of that sentence.
Anyway. Maybe next year.

@npub1mmf…eknq Which is not to be all cynical and negative about it, but to say that broad acceptance of genocide is a symptom of larger, systemic issues larger than humanity has ever confronted.
Genocide will be broadly acceptable until we dismantle capitalism and fix the environment.

@npub1mmf…eknq The sad reality is that, for most of human history, humans have been just fine with genocide as long as they and their friends weren't targets.
We enjoyed a nice little century or so of finding genocide wrong in principle.
With global environmental collapse, "supply chain issues" that will eventually be recognized as widespread shortages, and the oncoming wave after wave of refugees, global cultural norms are going to have lots of reasons to accept genocide as normal.

@npub1x6h…c3yv @eidolon@clubcyberia.co I think you'll find that in this particular exchange, you claimed to be the victim and made to be transphobic because I was being too pushy about... *checks notes* existing.

Was going to replace the too-short chain that came with my estrogen necklace with a longer chain but then I thought, why do something simple and elegant when instead I can do something complicated and obtrusive?

@npub1gg8…439g
For me it really underscores how The Quest to Acheive Pretty is fundamentally a different thing than addressing and resolving dysphoria.
And it’s HARD to really distinguish those two at the start of the process. Cause egg brain often says “want to be girl, girls pretty, therefore want to be pretty.”
You’ve kind of got to get a good ways in before you really internalize how not every pretty possibility aligns with your particular femininity.

We made it three and a half years but covid has finally made it into our house. :(
My wife tested positive, the rest of us negative. Luckily we have a very nice basement apartment that we’ve been keeping ready since this started.
Figuring out how to get paxlovid tomorrow. Whee.

@npub1gg8…439g I keep wondering about shifting the code base so that any instance can publish their blacklist and whitelist (and possibly greylists) and allow other instances to subscribe to each others’ lists. Like, surely there’s a reason it’s not that straightforward.

This is the best articulation of The Bad Space drama I’ve seen. Perfect encapsulation.

I just… get to look like this, now, and on many levels I still just don’t understand it, but I’m not complaining.

@npub1zc4…mc2z There’s a disturbing faction of the hobby that use game night to recreate the social hierarchies that crushed them, intent on embodying the chief oppressor or getting recognized as his loyal lackey.

@npub1gg8…439g
At one point President Barlett says, "You know that line that you're not supposed to cross because I'm the President of the United States of America?"
And CJ says, "Am I toeing up to that line, sir?"
And the president points past her. "No, look behind you."

@npub1gg8…439g Oh, I’m not DONE, just the coaching phase is done. Sophie gave me the tools, now I figure out how to apply them in my life, and constant use will smooth things out (and probably extend range further).
Did you listen to Tilly’s voice timeline she posted recently? The biggest changes were well after her coaching/therapy sessions were over.
