for clarity's sake the pustule guy from Dune is canonically gay.

if i had three wishes they would all be to make web 2.0 utterly illegal and go back to normal html

how do we explain to children that all our tech briefly worked perfectly and over time we threw it all away for sleek menus and corporate opacity

"we could give you a link to this mp3 OR we could run it in a proprietary player app that must connect to the internet every time you hit the resume button"

when i upgraded from a flip phone to an iphone and realized i could no longer record and set a custom ringtone because apple wanted me to buy radio pop ringtones, i realized, oh cool new tech isnt made for us it's made to exploit us and we are going to let it happen

It sucks that there isn't a magical "make me androgynous" hormone that I can take but what can you do.

recovering from chronic pain/disability is wild. I was lucky that my severe joint pain was treatable and after several years of treatment I've realised out of the blue that my pain is at a 0 on the pain scale. as a default. it's 0. the amount of pain I am in at any normal moment is 0. it's 0. it's 0. and this is normal. holy shit

all this to say we need to get more passionate about disability and pain treatment and accommodations. 0 pain is life changing. I can DO things again. your life OPENS UP. it's incredible! I'm a happier more patient person, I can focus on things, I can hang out with my friends without calculating how long it will take for my body to hurt too much to continue, I can do so much. so much.

it's soooo telling because like on one hand: yeah, we know. we all know. you acting as if we don't know says more about your attitude than ours. and on the other hand: maybe the fact that for over a century women (and it is mostly women, still) have been getting together to imagine "what kind of man would I like to marry" and the resulting archetype is, most notably, more supportive, more caring, and better in bed than the men who complain about romance novels being unrealistic... maybe that should make you realise some stuff, idk. about either yourself as a person or patriarchy as a societal structure, whichever

Everything I read about recovering from burnout is like “it takes months or even years to fully recover” and it’s like okay…. I have a weekend before I gotta clock in on Monday
