sarcastic anti-transphobic take
Spending my entire life desperately wanting not to be male and then identifying myself as agender as soon as I met someone else who did the same so I realized it was an option was *totally* a rapid-onset disorder brought about by social pressure to embrace transgenderism (in the early ‘00s), yeah, of course
I attached a squeaky mouse toy to the doorknob of the office with a shoestring and it has been squeaking nonstop for about ten minutes now #KittenThings
Dammit, the wildfire smoke isn’t done yet. PNW folks, keep watching air quality reports,and go outside and exercise whenever you safely can - that’s going to mean two mile walks in the middle of TI8 in yellow/orange air quality, for me. Time to dig up a phone app for indoor no-equipment limited-space workouts so I don’t spend another week inactive, it’s not good for me.
So since I had to officially quit my retail job, now is a great time to remind peeps that I have a Ko-Fi and a Patreon in case you're so inclined to support my art!

I bought an extra air cleaner for my living room and now it’s very loud in here but we could all breathe better in minutes. I have been spending days in my bedroom because it was the room with the cleanest air, being less imprisoned is nice. I hope the forecast that the smoke will clear soon turns out to be correct

I keep seeing more and more photographs of human beings showing up in my notifications. The party's over, fellow furries and other cartoon natives of the Internet.
Eternal September has come to us here on the Fediverse, as it must eventually come to every service that grows past a certain point. It's both what we've wanted, and what we dread.
Let us hope that we do not become Twitter in the process of stepping into the same niche.
18 years ago, I helped save Halloween for over a thousand poor kids.
I only just realized now that this is a literally correct interpretation of that time the science museum I volunteered at put out a call for extra help for preparing "goodie bags" for the trick-or-treat event, and nobody but my parents and I showed up. So we were literally the only reason over a thousand poor kids who went to the Science Center because their own neighborhoods weren't safe were able to get candy.
Chameleonic dragon. Otherkin. Some kind of eclectic neo-Pagan. Sie/hir or they/them. Software engineer. Seattle-esque, WA. Expect software takes, complaints about the tech industry, board games, video games, an inexplicably obsession with paper notebooks despite my handwriting, and Weird Furry Stuff.
