Technophobes need to apologise for "just put it in plain English you stupid machine!" because, well for one the decline in accurate error messages in favour of simplicity has contributed to the rise of tech illiteracy, but also because now whenever an "app" has a net connection error it will pop up a box saying something like "oo ooopsie! Your super duper feed went poo poo. We'll try again soon!" which having said to me by a corporation is about 8 million times worse than having to hear the word "network".

I must not mock Gen Alpha. Mocking Gen Alpha is the mind killer. Mocking Gen Alpha is the little-death that brings total generational solidarity obliteration. I will engage with Gen Alpha lovingly. I will permit them to be cringe. And when they grow up I will turn my eye to their accomplishments. Where mocking has gone there will be nothing. Only generational solidarity remains

gotta be honest, this idea that polyam ppl never feel jealousy has been really toxic to me. in my case, I was feeling like my partner was spending more time with her other partner, but I couldn't actually talk to her about it because that would be trying to exert unfair/abusive control about how she wants to spend HER time and how dare I even think of doing such a thing. turns out that my perception was right, and my partner was aware of the issue but she was unable to address it for various reasons outside of our control. but I spent months mentally beating myself up about it and just hiding my emotions because I thought even revealing them would prove I'm unworthy of love in the first place. hell, I thought I couldn't even talk to my polyam friends about it because I thought they would immediately shun me. turns out? this is totally normal and I really should've just talked to my partner a long time ago, rather than letting strangers online make me feel ashamed and afraid to speak up. so uh, in conclusion, if you've made those posts I kinda hate you lol.

Sometimes at work you repair people’s microwaves. Sometimes you become the god of an ancient people. And you don’t even get hazard pay because there’s no such thing as pay. You’re there because you like repairing the microwaves.

People often say to me: “You draw like some kind of inhuman machine.  If I eat your brain, will I gain your power?”  The answer is yes, but there is another way. The key to precise drawing is building up muscle memory so that your arm/hand/fingers do the things you want them to do when you want them to do them.  Teaching yourself to draw a straight line or to make sweet curves is just a matter of practice and there are some exercises you can do to help improve. If you’re going to be doodling in class or during meetings anyway, why not put that time to good use?

Bit telling that for years and years evangelical religious extremists have been allowed on university campuses with their bullhorns and horrific imagery where they harass students into physical altercations and when students complain to the university’s administration they just shrug their shoulders citing freedom of speech but when those same tuition-paying students start protesting against war and genocide they call SWAT

Sudan still desperately needs aid--it needs a lot of things, but it is approaching a dangerous point with famine and mass death due to hunger imminent.

These are the kinds of headlines we're getting now:

Here's an ongoing fundraiser:

I linked it before, to help with Ramadan, but it's an ongoing initiative, the need has not stopped.

I picked this gofundme because it's been boosted by people I trust and you can see pictures online of the food they've provided, e.g.:

But I also picked this because you can see the amount of donations. It's 2pm ET on Saturday, April 20th right now? For the next week, whatever's donated, I'll match for a total up to $2,000 (we'll say 2,750 CAD, since the gofundme is in Canadian dollars).

You don't have to send me a receipt, I just ask that you donate and boost.
