(addendum to the prior post) and here's testimony suggesting that my slightly-over-2-months may not have been long enough. Goddamnit.

(goddamnit) I'd probably want to research how to do feminizing hrt while minimizing breast growth, but the way my mind is going the gender thoughts aren't going to stop until after I go back, and go harder.

I don't think I know you well enough as a person to say (and my first instinct would be Bard), but I like Pebble's explanation for your kind of druid.

This deserves alt text A photo of a convenience store ice cream machine kiosk topped with a sign saying "Anything is possible with ice cream". Below that, someone has taped a handwritten note saying "No ice cream" to the front of the ice cream machine.

You're a cool bat! And we have a tendency to tear ourselves down anyways, I won't claim I see you as perfect or anything, but you're still a good friend, and I accept your flaws (as I hope you do mine).

Over at the Bad Place, I made a tradition of posting Douglass' "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth of July," and I intend to carry on that tradition here. Since most versions you read in classes or in textbooks have parts omitted, the link below has the full text of the speech.

Sometimes during these worse days I feel disconnected from time. The past is fragmented and incoherent, the future is an obscured forever echo of the present, and the present is too short-lived to do anything about it. Anyone get this, or something similar?

Living under authoritarian regimes is both relatively boring and normal AND incredibly corrosive to the human soul. These things can absolutely co-exist. This is why everyone needs to resist authoritarians, even people who privately assume they’ll be just fine.

The way to get rid of prison slavery once and for all is to simply mandate that prisoners be paid prevailing market rates for any task. And also, abolish prison, but the first idea is more immediately achievable.

You heard it here first folks. When engineers say what the radius of a highway curve should be, that’s communism. Public health rules for safe drinking water? Communism.

All incredible (but bat is best ofc). And I can tell them apart, so that's not a worry at least for this piece.

When will people get the message that frequent mandatory password changes have, in fact, been deprecated. It actually *increases* your chance of being brute forced.

Serial killer on TV: - extremely smart - also, cunning like an animal - charismatic but cold ‐ troubled childhood - operatic sensibilities - can only be caught by the greatest detective Serial killer IRL: - just a cop - a regular cop - cops won't stop him because he is a cop

SOAPBOX TIME I hate how many times I read things like "nobody cares about the world" and "humanity is the virus" and "our species is too inept/evil/selfish to survive" online. I almost never see anyone talking about the many, many people who are doing incredibly hard, complex, good work

Another recent art that came in I have a hard time getting over is my jackal Psi Warrior Refet's refsheet (heh), done by @knucklebone.bsky.social . The two outfits they have on there, a redesign of their battle armor from earlier and a brand new formal outfit, are both incredible. Tysm!

Oh, good lord. We do not even know how memory is stored, much less how to over-write it. These people are LIARS and scammers. Their shit will not work, except as torture. And since they’re relying on software that hallucinates and can’t even count, this proposition is worse than lobotomy.
