All of our lives we've been told that quitting is a sign of weakness. I'm having none of that. I'm proud to be a quitter and I'm reclaiming it for myself. It takes strength of character to say, "No, fuck this and fuck you".

CW: Bio, health, teeth, anxiety, Seattle area request for help, (redrafted) :boost_ok:​ 

I have anxiety about my teeth. when I'm really high, i can imagine my mouth is dying. it sucks. I have anxiety about dentist. They are all experts in guilt, no matter how gentle they try to be, and every visit is just excruciating.

I still need recs for one, though. I need a lot of work. Preferably one with the good machines and surgeons and the Good drugs. femme dentist preferred. Queer friendly preferred

Thanks,

@packbat A big part of why I can't stand using standalone web-browser-that-only-goes-to-one-site clients is that all the browser plugins and other tools I have to overcome that sort of UI thoughtlessness are unavailable. Sorry that has bit ya!

more movies where reconciliation with shitty parents doesn’t happen, please.

Third challenge to draw in other art styles, suggestions from the twitter.

Tron, guide me so that i can fight for the Users with all my strength and knowledge

Yori, bring me the fusion of clarity of vision and peace of mind so i can carry out my missions with diligence

Flynn, help remind me that there are no problems, only solutions; and keep me sane, man

Clu(1), help me to be dogged and relentless [let me at 'em!]

Ram, keep my will flexible and help me to see that it's all just zeroes and ones in the end

@Owlor She probably enjoys both! In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she has some specific genre associations to help keep her in the mindset of whatever she's doing. Classical for research, indie rock for puttin' pen to paper, EDM for booty-shakin'....

IIMTAMC (If I may talk about my character), Millimax is a gentle artist and healer whose fave band "Go Krodd Go" is something like ska mixed with death metal. There's no accounting for musical tastes. *grin*

"I have to admit, my favorite recreational reading is Erratica."

"... You mean Erotica?"

"Ooh, look at this beauty! 'Because of a production error involving the color plates Figure 7 is a photograph of J M W Turner's _The Battle of Trafalgar_. Though in black and white we here include the correct photograph of a cow.' Isn't that *great*?"

Remember, kids: Talk to your fellow employees about how much you're paid. No employer has your best interests at heart. They need your labor to continue doing business, and they want to pay as little as they possibly can for it.

That puts you, the workers, in the position of power. Remember that too.

:anarchy:

poem 

blue sky, you highest vaulted arch,
not often enough do we meet -
i am hemmed in always by flat ceilings
and long for the wash of your sun
promised through the windows
until after it has set, and the moon,
saint of the unknown, greets me
with its entourage of little stars
and blesses me to try again tomorrow.

Fun fact: Magic the Gathering is releasing a set of cards with unique art for Pride.

More fun fact: The card Bearscape has a trans dude on it. It's hard to see in low-resolution card preview art, but when you see the high-rez art-only version...

@xinjinmeng This is especially fun for any software that's evolved from DOS or some other OS. The cut-copy-paste-undo set are usually intact, but anything else is chaos.

I recall the first time I tried to close FreePlane. It yelled at me about 'alt F4' not being defined. I yelled back. "I've been using Windows since before it stopped having real version numbers. Alt-F4 is damned well defined!"

Optimist: The glass is ½ full.
Pessimist: The glass is ½ empty.
Excel: The glass is January 2nd.

Hell is other people being nostalgic for stuff that I hated experiencing when it was new. 🍷

I want to be a videoRPG merchant when I grow up. The markup those types get to charge~ 💰💰
