So my mom asked if I was gay, I told her I’m only attracted to women. She kept trying to figure out what was up (she was nosy and I was trying to leave a coming out letter so I was acting sus af). Anyways eventually she said “well I know you aren’t trans” and I said “about that…” and came out. Lots of crying on both our parts later she was incredibly supportive, but I wasn’t worried as she had already been a vocal trans ally.

My father on the other hand attempted to talk me out of it then hasn’t really spoken to me since. That includes years of living together. Which, points for stubbornness I suppose.

I cannot remember the genders of most of the characters in murderbot

I liked it because it’s a journey with a traumatized teenager. As a teenager who didnt realize I had cptsd it hit hard for me

I’m from around the same place as him and idk either

One big thing I’ll say here is that while many people will insist they have the one true way to be socialist, they don’t agree with each other. Because the fact is we’ve got a lot of ideas running around. We’re largely a goal oriented philosophy rather than a philosophy focused on a specific path to that goal

Im probably too sick to continue my day

I was a mod who decided fuck spez when he killed my app

Anchovy. It’s a nice salty kick with a lot of umami

If you’re interested in getting into bicycling check if there’s a local co-op. A good one will sell you a cheap bike and even let you pay a decent chunk of it in labor of fixing bikes (and learning to fix yours). Not only is this two hobbies for the price of a few drinks, it’s also a good way to make friends, build skills, learn good trails, and feel connected to your local community. You also can get cheap used parts. The bikes won’t be high end expensive ones, and you may decide some parts are worth paying manufacturer prices for (several used trigger shifters led to me buying new), but when all is said and done they’re usually pretty decent bikes. And you can find weird shit you may not have known was a thing.

No corporations have more rights than people

I don’t even want them to die. I want Elon Musk, Jeff bozos, and the lot of them to have to live normal lives with normal people consequences and normal people amounts of money. Maybe not Musk, but that’s because of his work towards advancing fascism. Even then I think that he’s not at the “deserves to die even if he changes his ways, admits fault, and works to rectify” stage.

I’m not bloodthirsty. I don’t need revenge nearly as much as I need a free society of equals

Nah, I don’t want anyone to suffer needlessly, not even them

His father is a real piece of shit. Like evej when compared to Elon. But also he grew up in a society defined by a particular level of violence. Even though he was the privileged group there the violence was still present and there was violence to all, including the violence to teach the white children to be the oppressors.

The Lenin one has been on my mind for like a year now. We’re coming up on the anniversary of the February revolution and I’m hoping that as things get worse we’ll see the point where we have had enough.

Historically very true. Nobody ever was glad they invaded Vietnam

And I want a better future. Guess we’re both gonna be disappointed ain’t we

Southerners are the same way. Nobody calls us yanks as a compliment

Joan of arc is notable for being the only saint in the catholic church to be executed by the catholic church

Well because I didn’t want to say bombing them on the internet. Or burning buildings associated with ecological destruction. And i forgot about other things like spiking trees (the spikes break chainsaws in a way that osha is not happy about)

Eco terrorists didn’t really care about you using proper pollution control when drilling for oil compared to the potential of forcing you to stop drilling for oil.
