PSA about the word human 

Please stop using the word human when you mean something else or talking about everybody or a group, not every body, being, person, individual or system is or contains human(s) and it can be quite discouraging, upsetting and dysphoria inducing when being called such. Thank you.

The "Ugliness" of Bad People 

With all the really ugly things happening in the world right now, a lot of folks are understandably looking for reasons to hate the terrible people who hold the blame. One I see people fixate on time and time again are components of physical appearance, and that sucks. Of all the things to focus on!!

Fascists are ugly because of the things they do, have done, and wish to do; not because of someone's subjective opinions regarding their physical appearance.

The cat food section at the local grocery store. It has more or less been like this since early 2020

This guy is more worthy of our attention than the kid whose daddy paid for him to go to almost space.

did you know that "woke" was originally a word created by black people to describe an awareness of oppressive justice and policing systems in the united states, and then white people co-opted it for when they find a group of video game characters that dont look "straight"

Sorta thinking about putting a website up on NeoCities. Not sure what I'd use it for, though.

One nice thing about their TOS is that, unless I missed it, they don't say they will ban you if you get targeted by a DDoS attack. Which some web providers have done in the past, like PythonAnywhere.

self-medication thoughts 

Gonna be trying out an herbal supplement, Bacopa Monniera. There is some evidence of it being useful for a number of things: ADHD, stress, anxiety, inflammation, and brain function / learning. As well, some studies pointed to it being synergistic with one of the anti-depressants that I am on (Prozac).

Will see how this goes once the pills arrive in the mail.

What would the plant version of a bestiary be called? 🤔

minor social vent, discord 

Got an invite to someone's discord server... and I don't think that this person realizes that I dislike them?
