trying to get ppl to care about accessibility while trying to be patient and not overbearing about it is tiring

def give this one a listen! and if you can, with the companion zine. there is a great diversity in the expression of sexuality and asexuality and things in between and like others have said, listening to this has been eye opening in the expression of sexuality, and things as a whole, thru art

seems like @midifairy.rosemade.art took this further and went the whole gleam/lustre route herself. she says "your haskell exploration inspired me and honestly gleam blindsided me when i thought elixir would be my entryway into BEAM"

the most i remember we've ever done materially with FP was an MML to MIDI parser in Elm, that output to a JavaScript MIDI sampler synth we wrote a while back.. i don't remember much of it and i doubt we even have the code anywhere

i sense a bit of "bipolar depressive episode level of self worth" flavour in the way we speak today. the only way i know out of that is hiring someone to pull us out of that, listen to all our babbling and say "yeah nah you can totally do this, you have so much extensive experience in your career"

two separated both very inexperienced parents with their own set of extreme parenting styles, at odds with each other in many ways, ignorant (and probably largely misinformed) about autism/adhd and treatment with children with a very audhd teenager,

i often wonder how ppl view us. some friends are able to distinguish between our headmate personalities (well, they happen to be plural systems i guess, or ppl who are more familiar with plural systems, or have only known us from during the time we were out plural).

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 28/05/2026
the roses find it difficult to just freely feel confidence, without any fear attached. i get the feeling this is not a thing most ppl relate to. after all, everyone wants to feel confident and those who struggle with it would love to just have it. for ppl with bipolar it could come at a real cost…

this happens on every single social platform, and seemingly more on the more "progessive" ones [white ppl] *<praises social media platform>* [poc] yes, however *brings awareness of racist behaviours* [white ppl] you hate queer and disabled people

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth ! Feb 15: Neighborhood watch. Why do Black people get so sensitive when you ask them if they live in this building, or if they live in this neighborhood? And unrelated, why does the US really have so many guns? What are they for? Read this entire thread.

like we could disappear for weeks and outside of professional/work stuff, we might get absolutely zero outreach from anyone. this is the norm today and i imagine it is sadly the case for many who don't already have routine regulars

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 29/01/2026
the only way this would work is if it were hosted by someone external with curiosity about what we have to say. like not even deep curiosity. we get activation energy from ppl reaching out and starting conversation. it's a rarity today and in many ways our fault given how we isolate

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 28/01/2026
this is a good thing btw! idk where it has come from but roses this year seemingly have been increasing confidence in expressing things that were difficult to us before. so if there is a time to start doing these things, it's now

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 28/01/2026
a fire within me has been lit and it is extremely difficult to NOT just want to dive into a conversation u care about but alas life commitments call my lesson learned is roses need to be talking more proactively about what we care about, so that we practice & don't get flustered in these moments,

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
anyway yeah, idk. but i do appreciate the people who make the effort to call us by our individual names. some don't even bother. despite using our plural proxies on discord with them. some i suppose can be excused, bc some don't call people by name to their face to begin with

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
sometimes i wonder if its worth being out plural like this, if there is even any point to it, in this kind of world we live in. the huge amount of friction it is to live true to yourself when "yourself" is so far from the visible norm and the norm that the world is predominantly designed around

i would love it if people/companies stopped using "AI" to buzzword brand things that have nothing to do w/genAI & LLMs. for what might be small scale ML, or hell even just simple algorithms. i hate even more that "AI" itself has become poison term, but that's how it is. capitalising on this just,

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
you will probably see a shift in how we run main soon. the roses are kinda changing things up on how we want to be online. tho we are going to consult a few folks about it- (from a social responsibility pov. not a social media engagement one. that's not why we're here)

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
anyway, i have find that much of the ppl i followed back on fedi are on blacksky now. our fedi instance has been very broken lately. with everyone too burnt out to deal with it. apparently val wants to look into it. but it really is refreshing to see these ppl on the tl again

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
the most interesting writing i come across that actually take into account deep, intersectional, multi disciplinary, historical factors, real experiences, that don't even need to be said, u can just sense it,

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 18/12/2025
i'm frustrated. frustrated bc white ppl just react. and they react only when it affects them. and thus they jump into things and know nothing about their established history beyond what only white ppl have said, unable to accept that entire realities have been cleansed/erased, bc it's too much-

i miss cohost, and the fediverse. it was far easier to write long form like that, and continue to iterate on it and refine it, even after going from draft to published state. and there wasn't the same scary sense of permanence. no room for any of that here

Glimmer Rose 🌹 @glimmer.rosemade.art · 14/12/2025
eh, too raw for social media. i will screencap, and delete thread, and throw into our diary obsidian and see if i can't reason about this mess better. i think i've at least gotten closer to what i'm trying to express. but its still a mess and not quite there

rosemade.art/@glimmer/sta... i know we paste links to our fedi posts here. and i know people generally don't even bother clicking fedi links just by the fact it's a fedi post! but consider that ruby worked her ass off redesigning these pages so they *don't* look blatantly fedi—

i still see tech people constantly shit on spreadsheets. the fact remains that they're a very approachable freeform way of collecting/organising data, general purpose, structured or unstructured, easy to iterate on. becoming a "power user" and discovering things like VLOOKUPs is also not far away

ok yeah, being back on there, i feel more at home on fediverse with unlimited char limit again. and pillbug (cohost-esque inspired client), though quite buggy and rough around the edges, seems nice enough to use.

i think i got rather annoyed at people being harassed off the platform by the community, accused ableist for being even a little critical, blanket told "well why don't YOU make a website then", when often waas coming from a place of wanting to improve or help find ways to set it up for success

i have too many issues with cohost to feel comfortable wearing the "i was on cohost" badge on my bio, or our bio on main. but do ppl generally look at it as a kind of badge of social trust? (which idk how i feel about either)

Search engines will soon be forced to check your age. According to new polling, about half of Australians have no idea this new regulation is coming.

Polling from the University of Canberra's News & Media Research Centre submission to a parliamentary inquiry supports its argument that many Australians are unaware of Australia's changing internet rules.

i very much dislike kneejerk unsubstantiated panic that is likely to lead to hopelessness, that's very common on social media. we need to direct our strength, anger, emotion to where it counts, and we need to take time to figure out where that is and coordinate. feel free to disagree with me

continuing the gen AI rant here bc i dont wanna keep harping abt it on main w/o anything valuable to add. heard somewhere that even though AI=genAI isn't "accurate", people insist on keeping to "AI" anyway bc this is how AI tech bros / companies are framing it and we have to "play their game"
