- The devil doesn't need an advocate; no combative arguing in my mentions.
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.

I saw a microbiologist today.
Much bigger than I expected.

If someone points out a natural, harmless feature of your body then tries to convince you that it's ugly and should be corrected they probably don't actually care how you look, they just have something to sell.

last boost, tangentially
the range of services where it is /technically possible/ to run your own, but this is heavily discouraged, heavily obscured, and|or intentionally made difficult (e.g. Firefox Sync, Signal[*]) should be called
(*: with Matrix and Mastodon (n.b. not fedi, Mastodon) moving in that direction with matrix.org. and mastodon.social.)
When you think about it, it's kind of absurd that everybody is just *expected* to be good at cleaning their house, an expectation that doesn't seem to exist for other skills

@chjara If I wanted to steal military secrets, I would just add a crappy version of them in the game and wait for the inevitable leak of classified data.

I learned this year that "being nice" is one of the oppressor's most important tools in modern society.

I guess I wasn't really cut out to watch movies or shows. I'm just bored about 99% of the interpersonal drama. Just get to the plot god dammit
Why can't we have a detective show that's just about solving a case, or a sci-fi show just about the science

Probably none of us who spent a lot of time there like to admit it, but Twitter was in many ways massively multi-player online game for news/policy people.
And by introducing what were essentially for-fee cheat codes, Elon broke the game.
I don't see a lot of tech reporting reflecting this reality, and that's unfortunate.
I hate how shopping for soft drinks has now become a spoons-intensive chore for me, because a couple major manufacturers decided to start adding sweeteners to their regular products with a horrible aftertaste that I cannot stomach

Curious if anyone else with #ADD or #ADHD does this thing where you take on just a bit too much because paradoxically it can help you focus? I call this "medicinal overwhelm". I just signed up for some medicinal overwhelm - it may be a bad idea, I'm not sure yet. I enjoy the starts of experiments like this. So much potential! Will it be Regretful But Wiser? Or will it be Triumphant Otter Stayed Afloat?
WE SHALL SEE!
