Following along @mzakharuk.bsky.social's reread of @juliaserano.bsky.social's "Whipping Girl". Barely any cis people understand the rampant rape culture inherent to the medical gatekeeping of trans healthcare. These "professionals" know the power they hold over trans people and often abuse it.
> In the 1970s, Suzanne J. Kessler and Wendy McKenna came across several instances in which gatekeepers were rather blatant about this practice: “A clinician during a panel session on transsexualism at the 1974 meeting of the American Psychological Association said that he was more convinced of the femaleness of a male-to-female transsexual if she was particularly beautiful and was capable of evoking in him those feelings that beautiful women generally do. Another clinician told us that he uses his own sexual interest as a criterion for deciding whether a transsexual is really the gender she/he claims.”

I'm really glad we're running this again. It helped us prioritise a lot of work this year. The previous method was 👍 on GitHub issues, which (imo) is too easily gamed, either intentionally or unintentionally.

We were also gifted this. Truly, the Last Webbed Site.
Jae makes ao cohost post urging users to "not block yourself", writing, "i don't know why multiple people tried this but: don't do it. it breaks shit. we're going to put a fix up tomorrow (when i am actually working) to make it impossible to do but also. come on. don't do it. i have to go manually fix it when you do. thanks."

Cohost became a safe space for unpacking complex feelings around the high expectations our parents often place on our shoulders.
Cohost user Kortney writes, "when I was telling my mom about planning to go to MFF 2019, I showed her a couple of pictures of friends' sonas (and also mine mixed in!) just to be like "this is what these folks get up to, I have a bunch of friends in this group" and she was promptly like "so a bunch of these folks want to represent themselves as these wild creatures in crazy colors and someone you know just wants to be a plain old deer. well, I guess it takes all kinds. ...fursona shamed by my mom." Kourtney follows up with another post, "Mom, I have something to tell you ... I'm not a sparkledog."

Not to excuse the guy but there's a clear pattern of "solo( open source maintainer turns to genAI to do more things faster bc it's seen as the only way to do so" that ought to be addressed one day. If open-source devs had a real support system this wouldnt happen so much I think.

Tumblr screenshot. it reads:

Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal

A laptop is a living creature. It has weight to it. A laptop breathes and produces body heat. And it wants to die badly. Mobile phones are not sentient like that & that's why they don't experience mental illness. A phone problem is like "out of storage :(" or "charging port broke". Laptops will cough weakly as they fade in and out of consciousness.

You will hold a laptop in your arms and it's like "I can't feel my legs". And you tell it girl you never had any

This is blowing up, so all I'll say is that perverts will inherit the earth. Support their work, kill the catholic guilt telling you it's wrong. Art is greater when perverts like us are allowed to thrive and create. Support ideas that might seem offputting or strange, they come from the soul.

and agreed about language being a way to bridge two cognitive hyperspaces. i've also noticed the same thing about near-synonyms, as no two words mean the exact same thing: you might also have to borrow from another language. (and that definitions of a same word depend on the vécu of each individual)

yea, i've been writing for far too long in a formal way with very minimal silliness because "that's how writing is meant to be" (education system might have also contributed to that). with conversions on the internet, my style definitely been has been changing to convey more tone, as you wrote

just rediscovered this character sheet I had drawn for artfight 2021. I need to remember how to fucking draw again
ref sheet for a character named mardelanne march. 28 years old, she/her, chaotic evil(ish). trans lesbian. in a speech bubble she says "isn't it obvious? I'm a lesbian." she has white "marshmallow fluff" hair, baja-blast green skin, and wears an orange top and blue "sexy pants." she's got a mauve snake named "yoghurt." arrows point out that she refuses to do-up her velcro shoes, that she's got plus-shaped pupils, and an adequate ass. her info box says "Mardelanne is the "evil" alter-ego of Delmaria North, a character so boring and insignificant I do not intend to make her a ref sheet or a backstory." in the corner is a sketch where she says "do you guys want to talk about snakes?"

it doesn't have to be good. it just has to be yours. "good" is for marketing suits and focus groups. if you make it you enough, you'll dip into that vibrant spark of life that animates all of us. you'll pull up a bit of that light. and then it will be great. the only way to make great is to be you.

This. Good code should make you go "oh...Oh that's CLEVER" Or "Oh shit... that's how that works!" These responses are genuine and human, and the same sort of 'oh that's how that brush stroke works!' from art. It's creative writing that DOES COOL THINGS.

i tried filling in some of the black symbols in the black area with white, but binary eye couldn't decode it. i think most codewords have values that allow them to be fully black with the right mask to allow more of it to be painted black, so they don't depend on error correction? nice one! :p
