I wish someone told me when I signed up that Fedi servers are like pirate ships

brb I'm going to walk into the sea, never to return
weirder earth has standards against discriminatory behavior that are more professional than anywhere I've ever worked.
sent my kid "moo that means good morning in cow" a couple weeks ago and now we say moo moo when greeting each other
I don't mean to alarm anyone but estrogen has altered the shape of my face

Set up automated post deletion. I don't see a need to keep most of them up. It's marked to save ones that I pinned, favorited, or bookmarked, and ones that have reached a threshold of likes and boosts.
It's kinda big for me to do this because I'm very into archiving everything but I want to see how it makes me feel.
I usually spend a long time picking out a new pair of eyeglasses.
Yesterday I picked out the glasses I liked in 20 minutes, right before they closed. It felt like such an easy thing that I doubted myself all last night before realizing what happened—I went with the glasses that gave me euphoria when I tried them on.
To have this sense of self, this feeling of elation when I express whatever my concept of self is, is something I got from coming out.
Getting queer-af corrective glasses are a great way to end Queer Pride month and usher in Disability Pride Month.
Today I asked our boss a question I already knew the answer to so that the new co-worker knew it was ok to ask questions during our morning meetings. I feel like it's a good way to model behavior.
The enbuttification of fedi
The tech industry is basically, "What if we could make money by stopping people from doing things as they have been and buy our dysfunctional product instead?"
Y'all - christians can navigate 193 flavors of christianity, I don't think they're having memory problems with gender and pronouns
I would love to see game studios use the talent and skill they have developed over years of hard work to make games for older systems. Wow me with your mastery of the engine and the limitations you had. Refine that experience. Make 3DS games. Make PS1 games. Make Gameboy cartridges. Extend the life of older systems by 20 more years with masterpieces.
It's such a joy to see trans people existing and doing normal things #Pride
Creating a call number system for my notes, putting that hyperfixation from last summer on cutter numbers, classification, etc to good use.
I plan to use call numbers on index cards, my notebooks, and digital notes, which are all transitory notes (chronological day-to-day notes).
I'm not sure what I want to do with topics yet. Digital notes have links to topical references (ADHD, tarot, dadaism, etc). This works really well.
Do I want to make a paper-based card catalog? Will I maintain it?
I see Fedi as a channel to communicate with like-minded people and friends on my terms, without being attacked with ads and overt propaganda.
I want to make this space better, but that doesn't mean federating with everyone. That doesn't mean introducing the space to randos. It doesn't mean tolerating hate and bullshit.
I don't feel this way about other social media networks because those places want to attack me with ads and propaganda, insist I tolerate hateful people, and operate on a set of principles that actively destroys the happiness and stability of me and my friends.
