I even found evidence!
It's not a RickRoll -- I'm flat-out telling you what the link is: it's a mashup of Never Gonna Give You Up and Robo's Theme. It's 100% not my fault if you click on it. I'm only telling you the evil exists; I'm not telling you to stick your face in it.

Hey, Fediverse?
Have you ever noticed that Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" and Robo's Theme from Chrono Trigger have roughly the same chord structure?
Sorry I've been so quiet lately! Seems like for the past month or so I've been either really busy with home stuff, or swamped by work.
Fortuantely it's been pretty good stuff in the main, just time-consuming!
And now I have a few weeks more left of it to go at least, with trips on both the first two weekends of May.
When did my life get this hectic, and how is it that I actually kinda enjoy it now? O.o

@senemura@occult.camp @green To me Pike Place has a fascinating gradient. The surface is, as you put it, very observed, but when you go down a few levels it's the sort of place where you could find the weird shop with the little trinket you have to have and then the next time you go there the shop is gone and also you're a foxperson now or something.
This is a recreation of the scene I have the strongest memory of from when I played around with POVRay in high school, probably because it's the first one that I just made up myself. And I was really proud of discovering the cool point-of-light effect you get by putting a light source inside an object.
Yeah, I guess I was obsessed with glow even back then. ;)
I'm simultaneously sad and relieved that I don't have any of my old renders to share, here.
You all should be just relieved, probably.
Wait. I could probably recreate some of them. ^.^
POV-Ray was such a big part of my high school "getting way into Computers" memories.
I reading about Phong shading (uuuh because of ReBoot of course) and I saw this and it sent me into this deep reverie of twiddling shading parameters in a text editor.
I'm weirdly glad that the POV-Ray website still looks like this:
Did not expect a personality-typology article about the MtG color wheel would make me cry, but here we are:
This is everything I want to be, and it helps me see how to get there and yet how far off it still is.
Wellp, I can no longer say that no one at work has commented on my collar. After just over 5 years, that streak is broken.
Upside: It came up because a very cool coworker who also turns out to be poly and kinky mentioned a leatherworking class I might be interested in. XD
@literorrery Hey wanna help me make up a new identity label word? ;)

@starkatt @indi @vagabondsun I don't think that word "belongs" to anyone, is what I'm getting at. It didn't evolve organically from within the old guard; it was a late introduction drawing a distinction most older community members didn't really see as relevant because "were" covered a broad range of identity-expressions. We'd already rejected Lion Templin's "contherianthropy" by then, f'rex. "Therian" wasn't our word for ourselves until after several schisms and subsumption into furry.

@starkatt @indi @vagabondsun I was in ahww back in 1992-3, and I don't recall anyone using the word before Eternal September; it evolved later, when some people tried to distinguish "non-human identity" and "were means 'human' and I'm not" from "spiritual animal connection." Honestly, I think more people have heard of the word from the Furry Surveys than from original community source material.
Woo
So, just realized that at some point in the past year, my first-line response to someone saying "hey I had a deity contact" went from "oh wow cool let's hear about it!" to "Ooh, okay, are you feeling all right, do you need any grounding or anything?"
Comes with experience, I guess. ;)
So @vagabondsun wrote some stuff and it make me want to write some stuff and all of a sudden I had my first Dreamwidth post in three years!

I call myself 'otherkin' a lot, because it feels like a broad term, easily encompassing experiences of being multispecies and synthetic and such. And yet, 'therian' is still a term that resonates for me, and one I still use in some contexts. Here's a stab at explaining why.

OKAY LEGITIMATE POST THIS TIME. #transdayofvisibility
Heyo! Iris Jay here! Nonbinary trans femme and cartoonist! Current projects include Crossed Wires (http://crossedwires.irisjay.net ) and Golden Trick! with my husband @itsnero (http://members.slipshine.net/goldentrick )! (That's him in the photo next to me!) I also co-edited Tabula Idem with @explodinghye! (That's them in the other photo!) You can buy it here: http://gumroad.com/fortunamedia
We are so diverse, but hopefully y'all here know that already. There was a long time that I was really frustrated and lonely about this stuff, feeling like I was the only one doing what I'm doing, but lately that's changed a lot. It does my plush heart a world of good seeing all the other folks working out gender in their own ways. You all are awesome.
