I love you tailors, I love you recycling center employees, I love you jewelry repair people, I love you tech repair people. I love you plumbers, I love you electricians. I love you all maintenance workers, who make it so things don't have to be fully replaced when they break.

There are so many ways to contribute to the climate movement.

online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted was sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes.

and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other.

there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well.

i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.

It should be illegal to require that any device or software connect to the internet just to run. I shouldn't need to log in with microsoft to open any of their programs on my local computer. All games should be playable without access to an online server. All media you pay for should be downloadable to local disk as a raw file and if they don't like that because they know you'll share it and upload it, tough shit. They took your money already, they'll live.

remember when i was a bright-eyed 20-year old and i thought i would get a career in the art or game industry and live a moderately happy life alone but unbothered

11/30/23: KOSA is an anti-LGBTQIA+ censorship bill. It is essential you call THIS week. Tell them you are specifically against KOSA and especially against hotlining the bill.

Call the Capitol Switchboard at [phone] and ask to be connected to the Senator of your choice.

Here is one that will send your reps a fax: https://resist.bot/

I want a live action movie with the autobots and decepticons with their designs from the opening scene of Bumblebee. They were so good in my opinion. Wheeljack had his fat ass ears and Starscream looks like he’s a whiney little bleep. It’s perfect.

Shockwave is such a baddie (as he should always be) and Soundwave looks badass

Rachet is also a baddie like why were his hips and thighs so thicc bro

TFP Megatron's most toxic trait is thinking he can do shit without any prior experience and make it look effortless.

It doesn't matter how ridiculous, silly, or petty. He wants to be The Best, even if it's log running, spice tolerance, or home decoration contest.

I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.
