since it’s #NationalComingOutDay and yesterday a friend I’ve known for years asked if I was trans, I guess I have to do this periodically…

hi.

I’m agender. my pronouns are they/theirs/them.

I’m greysexual but have only ever been attracted to masculine or androgynous people, and am romantically interested in masculine people.

oh no I just remembered I had a dream last night about Bitcoin

check out my fanny pack

I'm trying very hard to value pragmatism over fashion

yet I still can't decide whether I'm pulling this off

my ears have been at the same size (1/2") for like four years and I forgot how much a tiny stretch (to 9/16") HURTS

I started playing Perception, which I backed on Kickstarter, and it's too spoopy for me

so I'm watched someone else play it on twitch 👍

imaging thinking a cyberpunk dystopia, full of megacorps, zaibatsu, and a gattaca-esque or cybernetic wealthy class is a paradise to strive for

basically, the worst parts of transhumanism wrapped up into a shitty philosophical package

I don't have any better suggestions...

it's just weird.

the fact that the term PoC encompasses all non white people really does reinforce whiteness as the normal human base state, doesn't it?

😤

I gather that people have been moving away from the term "minority" to avoid this sort of implication, but I don't think it's helped.

also, both terms are so culturally specific, and people tend to use them on a global scale.

Last boost:

I think this is the first time I’ve ever looked forward to an upcoming license renewal?

Why DO scientists disagree about global warming?

do I have to watch this queer film in preparation for Pride? https://www.buzzfeed.com/tomvellner/i-am-babashook?utm_term=.cfd9KPRd1m#.wiylgDVGMZ

it's easy to accidentally signal race pride with white or red shoelaces or whatever

what can I use to intentionally signal race shame?

thinking a lot about the phrase "eat the rich", and morlocks and eloi recently

is this the most likely dystopia after all?

like, it is the logical conclusion of a transhumanism that only increases the gulf between the haves and the have nots

just instead of picking bones out of their teeth, morlocks will be picking out the cybernetic implants of eloi

it was not hard to fix but it sure was a surprise when I turned on the tap and the damn thing launched into the air and water went everywhere

today in "this shitty apartment", an exciting new mode of failure for sinks!

this rant brought to you by a work retreat spent spitting into the ocean instead of doing something to meaningfully affect anything at all

is it weird that I like hanging out in nature but I've given up any hope of ever saving it?

like, camping is good, but also invasive species have already won. accept it.

not even addressing the larger issues like climate change, in which every one of us is completely and utterly fucked

maybe invasive species are the only way for widespread life to survive climate change
