So I was telling my sister about my #lifegoals of owning a #queer combination tea and yarn shop, and she came up with the perfect name for it:

Quiltbag Cafe.

Job searching sucks.

Job searching sucks more when your ex-wife sends an email demanding full child support from the income you don't have coming in.

The GF and I saw "The King's Speech" last night, which I missed when it was in theaters.

Damn, great film.

They told me I couldn't buy friendship

Well, what is THIS then, huh?

you see, the way the job system remains profitable is by never training people to do the job, you must already be trained, and that is where the money is saved, making it a finite energy machine like it must logically be, since an infinite energy machine is impossible

Blessed solstice to any of you celebrating today!

- 🤔 some higher being created us for some reason we can't understand
- :thaenkin: everything is absurd
- :thinking_very_hard: we will create ourselves so we can have existed

God damn, well I declare
Have you seen the like?

call out the racist white woman in the store. call out the transphobic/cissexist white woman in the bathroom (if ur cis).

or talk to the victim and help them get out of the situation. more often than not your whiteness (or cisness) will protect you from any further action on the harassers part.

use your privilege to uplift and aid marginalized folks.

I guess one good thing about being currently is that I have time to play guitar and get back to studying my French and German.

This is the last thing I'm going to say on that place:

Black people, women, trans people, and disabled people should not have to hide ourselves to avoid harassment.

If you don't want us blocking and avoiding your nazi-land en masse, if you don't want your software to be associated with nazis, come up with ways to stop the nazis from harassing us rather than crying TO US about your precious software.

Give us some confidence in your software's ability to not be abused by nazis. Duh.
