tumblr post screencap re: kink at pride discourse 

snakegay: "why does so much post apocalypse media have people wearing straight up bdsm/fetish gear like, do the kinksters watch the world ending and think 'oh boy I can wear my bondage gear in public now"

skelefolk: "thats actually exactly what happens"

broliloquy: "What I wanna know is why the spiky kink warriers are always the bad evil marauders. They might be into some weird shit and unafraid to show it but that doesn't mean they want to go around killing dudes. They're a tight-knit bunch. A lot of them are queer. They understand the importance of community.

If the government collapses and all laws come to an end, the people rampaging around killing and looting are gonna be like, frat boys and 4chan rejects. You can mistrust the bondage raiders all you like but they're definitely they ones you're going to run to for help when the neoliberal blood cultists and Nazi meme demons lay seige to your survivor enclave. There's gonna be gayboy berserkers busting up slaver gangs and burning down warboy frat houses. The assless-chaps leather daddies and weird petplay people are gonna be the accidental peacekeepers of the post-apocalyptic world just because they're the only motherfuckers who understand the importance of consent anymore."

@zx3 We just gotta take the Systems we know and keep 'em powered in our own ways.

@zauberin I've taken a liking to "pibling" – presumably a portmanteau of "parental sibling".

There's also the niece/nephew equivalent of "nibling", but that one may be tougher to convince folks to adopt....

lyrics shitpost re: the feeling of time while in isolation 

@LexYeen ...slippin', slippin', slippin', slippin', SLIPPIN' MAKES ME FEEL GOOOOOOD

@jakebe In my (weak) defense, I grew up in an environment where a total lack of self-advocacy and self-preservation were made to sound moral by labelling them "work ethic".

A reminder this agender pride day that you don't have to have a gender if you don't want to. You can literally just opt out altogether if you think it would be more comfortable for you. :agender_flag:

SCI-HUB NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Do you have a few dozen gigabytes of free diskspace and a machine that can seed it via #bittorrent?

You can help save an unbelievable trough of scientific knowledge from disappearing behind the elites' paywalls!

@porsupah This is the sort of thing I think about a lot, especially given the direction @millimax@high.cat is going. What little habits and comforts are so rooted in the organic that we might take them for granted until we change such that they longer make sense? Rubbing eyes, sighing, stretching out, taking a deep breath of spring air?

I've already decided what it'll look like when Millimax cries, because there will be times that she's happy enough to do so... especially once she's gone full teapot!

You never realize that society has an implicit rule until you see your cat breaking it.

Explaning how to use IPS patches to modify old game ROMs is always awkward... so I made a simple web tool for it.

"Owen J. Hurcum has just been elected the youngest mayor in Welsh history and the first openly non-binary mayor of any city in the world."

It's a bit more like "come to us". Between DeepL's best guesses and my long-ago-may-have-been-grade-school-level French, the lyrics come across as "when the world and/or inside of your head feels overwhelmingly fucked up, you can come to us for comfort", whereas the English lyrics always seemed to carry more of an urgent "if something's after you we've got your back". Or is that just me?
