Hey!

So i know I've been posting a lot about moving.

But I've decided where I'm going!

I'm going to be moving to Texas! Houston area!

Not only are there a lot of jobs and queer opportunities, surprisingly, but it'll let me move in next door to Rhys :)))))

Also, planning on renting a big enough place to live with Jess and London to help ease their burdens and also give Pev more friends :)

If you would like to assist in this move, which should be happening in the next 2ish weeks, pls feel free to donate :)

@winter I don’t think there’s a direct equivalent. "coucou" is an informal way of saying "hello", so I guess you might use that in a similar context!

More generally, DO NOT to the thing that’s done in English of replacing r’s with w’s for cutesy/childish/furry speak in French. It hasn’t been used in that context, and instead has been used in a racist way to mock the speech/accent of black people. I say that cause I see a lot of French learners attempting to do it and not knowing about it

You know, it's interesting how communist and anarchist and socialist FOSS folks all think they're on higher moral ground than capitalists, and then you look at how they treat disabled people through the software they write, and you find that big capitalist corporations, particularly Apple, treat blind and other disabled people with more equality than *most* FOSS projects, and even corporate FOSS like RHEL and Ubuntu. I'm not saying Apple is perfect, walled gardens rarely are. But the number of accessibility customizations, and the thoughtful implimentation and stability of those features, show that they at least know how to keep most of the blind community on their side. FOSS rarely even tries. Remember, you can judge people by how they treat the most vulnerable among them. Just something to think about, y'all, when you feel superior and elite. So when you think communism works, or socialism works, or anarchism works, think of me.

Whatsapp é um bom exemplo de como capitalismo e empreendedorismo privado não geram, per se, inovação ou produtos de qualidade.

"Todos" sabem que o aplicativo não é bom e nem se compara a outros concorrentes. "Todos" sabem que é inseguro.

Mas todos usam porque há um contexto ideológico e econômico que "força" a usar. No caso, dentre outros, uma politica de dumping, com financiamento de dados zero, que aumenta a base de usuários e aí ninguém sai porque é "de graça" e porque "todo mundo usa".

tired of people using "they work hard" as the metric for whether people deserve respect or livable wages or stuff.

what if trans writers wrote cis characters the same way cis writers wrote trans characters

it's also unfortunately one reason it's so easy for TERFs and transphobes to run around saying "x% of trans people kill themselves because they're evil!" - in their day to day lives, they'll only see like one trans person older than 25, and they'll assume that this anecdotal evidence backs up their hate, because all the rest of us killed ourselves and the only reason that one person didn't is that they're "too oblivious to feel self-loathing when they're embarrassing!!" or some shit.
In actuality, we all went stealth because people like you exist, transphobe, and it's not fucking safe to be openly trans. And the one person you think is "oblivious" is just *really fucking strong* and manages to carry on in a world with sickos like you in it without hiding. Or has no choice.
We do all of this to *avoid* being part of the fucking High Score you're trying to grow, you fucking murderers.
