printer rant, cursing
printer and everything around them make me irrationally mad. why the fuck do you only want ink from your company, when other ink works, too? why does my ink cartridge needs a chip? why do all these different companies need different methods to put fucking ink in their shitty ink spitters? i know the answer is capitalism, but i am still irrationally mad and want to do unspekable things to the designers of these abominations.

1. Don't propose replacing or abolishing a solution until you understand what led to its creation

3. Discussions should be like a collaborative project, not like a competitive debate

Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
