A reference sheet for a good doggo i Know ( @Stereoscopic )

Thanks for commissioning me ! :D

seriously how fucked up your worldview and behaviour and supposed social skills are, when you film your alleged loved ones in their most vulnerable moments, for the whole world to gawk at

would you like it if someone filmed you at your worst moments in life, and made a public sensation about how disordered you are?

would you do that to a neurotypical kid?

why the fuck do you not see autistic people as *people*, deserving of same privacy and dignity

in my mind, hacker news has done more to demonize the word 'hacker' than cybercriminals ever did

I'm a "tech guy" on a lot of teams. My major skill is confidence. If I don't know how to do something, I'll type whatever keywords I can think of into DuckDuckGo and keep trying things until they work. I usually have no idea what I'm doing before starting on a new task. I like doing things I haven't done before.

If you can search the web and can be comfortable with some ambiguity, you could do this too.

A lot of women have been told this approach is insufficient. That was a lie to oppress you.

"Dutch ID cards will be gender-free within five years, as the Government seeks to end the 'unnecessary' registration of gender."

so, the same person that had www.canberrasocial moved to toot.canberrasocial.net

And is now vaguely threatening someone of slandering them

Old-time proverb: "HP is the best medicine".

gender reveal parties for genderfluid people

like 24/7 partying with gender updates every so often

no longer federates with gamers.exposed, because those instances (at least 2 subdomains) are explicitly opposed to using the fediverse's abuse management tools, federate with Gab & Kiwifarms, and are administered by an abusive troll who is proud of having been defederated by a list of instances for good reasons. So add us to that list now.

Thank you [anonymous w.e. user] for reporting the admin.

Reading bios before following is good because:
✨ you can learn really basic essentials for future interactions like pronouns
✨ find out important boundaries to prevent you from sticking your foot in it later (check pinned toots too!)
✨ learn their interests for an idea of what they might toot about
✨ website links to have a nosey at their art, projects, etc and potentially give support towards them
✨ discover the big red flags early
✨ it's just polite, really

Harry Potter wasn't my thing as a kid, but I think this is a good take about if you are a fan of the series, how you would reconcile that with what JK Rowling is doing with her massive platform.

I was being stared at by a trashy construction type dude working on my neighbors deck.

To negate this, here's a selfie, so people I actually give a damn about can stare at me all they want.

The word "nonbinary" alone doesn't really say much about the person who uses it. What gender(s) might this person have? Do they have none? Is "nonbinary" the entirety of their gender? There are even more possibilities.

What this term does is create starting point from which to learn about it's bearer.

"Nonbinary" is a simple word for a beautiful and endlessly complex people. So, set aside any assumptions you might have, and make room for the unexpected.

Acho que antes da pessoa querer dar suas opiniões inúteis sobre poliamor, ela devia, antes de tudo, saber a diferença de poligamia pra poliamor.

Quando a pessoa entra no assunto e fala "poligamia", já sei que é uma ignorante no assunto e que há 99% de chances de falar merda. E até agora isso nunca falhou comigo.

O mais zoado é a pessoa entrando em questões supostamente biológicas, dizendo que a "tendência ao poliamor" tem base genética, mas que ela mesmo assim "não concorda com essa prática".

É um combo de duas coisas que me irrita: determinismo biológico e achar que a orientação relacional alheia está aqui pra ser debatida.
