this is why I never take people seriously when they claim tech is some uniquely White Male field, it is contingent on widespread erasure *and* it conditions young women to not pursue certain jobs as a matter of appropriate gender. It’s reactionary garbage.

boosting this again: my problem is the intermingling of risky kink with social/housing/employment networks by a group with social dynamics that seem almost purpose-built to protect various "Great Men" from allegations that could derail what is usually portrayed as world-historically important work

really hope that the message people take away from all the EA sex parties stuff is "don't import inherently coercive real life employer/employee or mentor/mentee dynamics into your edgeplay kink spaces" and not "THEY DO THE IMMORAL KIND OF SEX DISGUSTING"

tangentially related, if u assume anyone with an opinion (e.g. a tech opinion) u don't agree with is a man, that makes u a misogynist by way of gender essentialism.

i do think that one of the roots of all conversational strife online is the idea that socratic-methoding someone without their consent is anything but rude. If that doesn't read as hostile to u, imo it's a good indicator that uve possibly lost the ability to communicate normally.

Being not Jewish, I was not aware of the key role Fruit Gems had in Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and other celebrations, I was just sad on my own account they were no longer going to be made. But now we all will have reason to celebrate: ejewishphilanthropy.com/sunkist-says...

I have an ocean of hate in my heart for the way social media has taught so many Zoomers to reflexively self-censor. Makes me think of the bit in Demolition Man where nobody touches one another anymore, so high-fives have become this weird air-rubbing move.

It's somewhat telling when the folks decrying indoor mask policies go so far as to claim anyone masking in this day and age is mentally ill. For fuck's sake, people, I'm immunocompromised and my doctor has recommended I mask since 2018. I ask others to mask *in my home* but not in public.

Reminds me of when my Biblical Hebrew teacher said we had to stop putting "behold!" in our English translations because nobody talks like that anymore. Naturally we started saying "behold!" in class. "Behold! Here is my homework. Lo, it was difficult and indeed I have questions."

I'm both really happy for myself, selfishly, with the destiny 2 news, but I'm also still so disappointed that it had to happen this way. There's like 500 people that Bungie should rehire if they're going to actually make more Destiny.
