@wizard holy fuck webdev is the most egotistical industry I've ever seen

plurality erasure in professional psychology, twitter link 

there's a lot of threads here but twitter.com/workingdog_/status seems to bring a bunch together

apparently:
- the people who replaced "multiple personality disorder" in the DSM-III with "dissociative identity disorder" in the DSM-IV did so /specifically/ to stop plurality's existence from being acknowledged, and
- their science is complete garbage nonsense
- also, one of the originators lost his license for abusing patients

Every time I see "abo" without the slashes my first thought is "20th-century Australian racism" and not "mpreg mixed with bizarre misunderstanding of wolf social hierarchies".

how long is a long distance (approximately)

miles/km

awful genderthoughts inspired poetry 

see several several serpents devour society,
accordance with destructive desires, dreams
worms wriggle wrathfully from the rotting corpse
of gender, grey ground lifeless with the
foul fragments flaking from a moribund society

It has been exactly "0" days since Twitter did something so dumbfoundingly stupid as to render me utterly slack-jawed.

While typing in a quote-tweet, I wrote:

This code snippet is exactly the reason why I refuse to use C++ except under commercial obligation/duress.

Niagara Mohawk must be on their way to tap the generator that is Kenneth Iverson's grave-site now.

After clicking on the submission button, Twitter posted the following:

Niagara Mohawk must be on their way to tap the generator that is Kenneth Iverson's grave-commercial obligation/duress.

Niagara Mohawk must be on their way to tap the generator that is Kenneth Iverson's grave-site now.

Do you see what happened there?

Twitter literally can't even get basic text-box functionality right.

If I were smart, I would have screen-capped the tweet. But, in my haste, I wanted to fix the tweet, so I deleted it with the intention of re-QTing the original tweet.

Except now that tweet was long gone from my timeline. Because, umm, yay for engagement algorithms, I guess??!

So, yeah, this happened. And now I'm in a really pissed off mood for several different reasons all at the same time.

politics? not about any specific country or anything, agriculture
