@hyperlink@snouts.online Hyperlink. Stahp. You'll wake up the sheeple to postmodern monetary theory and destroy capitalism.

Four place decimal, one thousandth of an inch tolerance zone, three inch hole in an inch thick cast iron coin.

No pressure.

@hyperlink@snouts.online You: MaRkEtInG! sAlEs! CoNsUmEr OuTrEaCh!

Me: *cuts metal with math*

I was describing an ex I had and my co-worker asked if this was an old job or a Woman I was talking about.

...This was complicated in so many ways. On the one hand, he was a Transguy. On the other hand, he was also a Job.

@Kilroy@snouts.online Yes and Yes. They're sore but it's a good kinda sore

Y'know what i just remembered was a thing?

Cassowaries.

:blobsweats:

Been feeling big enby energy lately.

Apparently I'm so crosswired that estrogen gives me muscles

@plausocks So that's why my temperature lately has looked 'Wrong'

@plausocks I managed to find a weird dragon cave machine shop. Everyone's autistic, it's great.

It's possible to find good spots in industries like that, but you're correct, there's a toxic meathead culture to most metalworking industries.

I'm also of the opinion that Women make the best welders and machinists. I've done both before and after estrogen, and it's way easier to not get Angry with a machine on estrogen.

ok this is a - not a ~ 

@quasar@snouts.online big goddamn mood

here's the tea on being 'unlovable'

everything you believe about your innate desirability and worthiness of love is a function of what you believe about yourself, and much as I respect you and value your insight, *some of the things you believe about yourself aren't true*

when you look in the mirror, you see things that remind you of yourself. the shape of your elbow, the shape of your chin, the space between your eyes, the mark on your forehead. these are just the things that make you recognize yourself. other people also recognize you by many of those things, and probably other things that you don't notice or see very much of

so when you look in the mirror and see a litany of flaws or ugliness, that isn't because those things "are flaws" or "are ugly": that is because you believe you are flawed and ugly, because that's what you've been taught to believe, and *those are the things you recognize yourself by.* anything about yrself that sticks out in your mind becomes an imperfection

every time you call workers "heroes" without giving them a fair wage, an anarchist gets their wings

@dartigen I think it misses the point somewhat.

We invented Real Magic with Real magic languages and rituals. Sufficiently misunderstood technology.

Yes, most people forgot how to bake their own bread, chop their own wood, plane their own boards, all so they could have room to learn how to drive a car, file their Taxes or use Excel.

We're a bunch of Specialized Mages because the World got complicated, and Fast.

Why does everything in my life have to get fucked up all at once?

@fluxom_alt I have been alerted of your requests for fluff so I'd like to talk about Pemka. My darling little idiot bird is currently shedding her winter fluff! Down to just one baby feather left in her tail.

She alternates between begging for scritchies and refusing touch because of those bloodfeathers are itchy but also very tender.

The dork has starting taking naps on my foot while I'm at my desk, which is cute but also sucks when I have to go to the bathroom and she gets upset at me.

I'm starting to think that 90% of the trauma my friends suffer from comes down to "I was an autistic kid" in a world that wanted them to be ANYTHING but what they are.

When you account for autism, and understand that it makes you end up a Non-standard human being, it's almost a Normal thing.

Instead, we were all Tormented, just so we "Would Grow Up Normal"

I've always hated this Expectation of Normality. It always felt like a Conspiracy.

@Caudle She's why Unicorns Gayed themselves into extinction.
