gun violence, self harm, suicide, politics 

@thefishcrow Thank you. And thank you for sharing your own story as well.

gun violence, self harm, suicide, politics 

This is pretty grim and I'm sorry.

With the rise of the alt-right, I've been hearing more and more that lefties, especially queer ones like me, should look into getting a gun for self-defense. And that makes sense, I get it. Except, owning a gun makes it too easy. Too easy to put an end to a really bad day, which I've been having a bunch of lately. And I'm very sure that that's how I'd die, if I owned a gun.

Sorry, again. Cat pics tomorrow, good night.

@PaulFerence Again, I haven't been here long enough to fairly judge, and it's not like this place is bad or anything. Doesn't cost me anything to give it more time.

Also, PoE this weekend? Today doesn't work well (Fridays in general will probably be iffy) but Sat or Sun evening would work, or maybe get some time in the mornings.

@PaulFerence oh, that doesn't really work for me. Oh well

@PaulFerence Ok, granted, I've only been here a day, but so far it seems like it's 1/3 sad trans people, 1/3 incomprehensible tech talk, 1/3 twitter-lite, and half of it's in French. None of that is a condemnation, I'm a sad trans person myself, after all, and not knowing French is on me. I'm just struggling to find a footing

there's always something happening, big or small, personal or, uh, widespread(?), I feel like I just can't catch my breath

polygon vs yogscast: drama edition 

fucking thank you polygon for treating this like a company is supposed to, instead of like the yogs did. thank you for taking it seriously.

fuck sjin, fuck ridge, fuck lewis for all the fucking shit they covered up. you don't ask minors for nudes and get away with it. you don't tell minors to kill themselves and get away with it. you don't, while live on twitch and being recorded, say 'fuck off' when your audience brings it up and get away with it.

@PaulFerence maybe... maybe you just stepped on a seashell instead?

I'll just ramble about my cats, probably. they're pretty neat

don't know what I'll talk about here, but I'll figure something out
