And to clarify, I'd like to think that I could be the bigger person. To be able to have enough stillness in my core to want and seek equitable justice without anger, vengeance, malice, or spite. I strive to be that person.
But I know I'm fallible, and I know I'll fall short of that ideal. I'm going to keep trying though. Because the kind of person I _want_ to be. Cause being mean makes me feel bad.
But, f'real, y'all: Racists with guns can GTFO _YESTERDAY_

Sometimes I wish I had the sort of certainty and (it feels like) disregard for others needed to be more Renegade.
That's something I don't think I've seen very often. The cost charged to and paid by The Paragons over and over.

She got forgiveness.
Killed a person in his own house and she got forgiveness and 10 years.
What does that say to everyone?
Something I saw just today is that it says the following:
To the white: "You can do whatever you want, they will forgive you."
To the black: "You are never safe, no matter what. But you better accept it with a smile and grace and quiet, Jesus like behavior, because if you get angry, you'll get dismissed or attacked yourself, with words and public opinion if not as the next PoC to get killed when someone feels 'unsafe' or 'threatened' or 'saw someone enjoying a bbq in a public park'
There is so much that is just... BROKEN about how such a small environmental adaptation has eaten up and consumed this planet and the people who live on it.
I don't know how to fix it. I'm trapped by it. It informs me so much, even though I try not to think about it.
The Work (CW: Drug mention, Mental Health, ~, 0, +)
I almost caught it again. Just for a small second. But it’s so freaking elusive and hard to get a lock on. So much interference to filter out.
Pain drowns everything else out. Makes it harder to operate.
The Work (CW: Drug mention, Mental Health, ~, 0, +)
Got stoned again last night before bed, and there was this brief moment of clarity, where all the things I hurt about just... went away. For a tiny, shiny second, I had the right perspective or shift in thinking or whatever to get past a lot of pain and old thoughts.
It was nice, but sad, cause I was pretty sure that I wasn't going to be able to hold onto that feeling once I went down for recharging.
But I can remember what it felt like, and I can remember the train of thoughts that lead me in. So maybe I can find it again.
Love you all.
It's #TMITuesday so ask me stuff! Huskybot infodumps, things your curious about, Or just give me something to rant about.
I’m glad to know that Mr Waterson decided to retain his integrity and not sell out or become horrible like other cartoonists I could name.
But still. How awesome would that be? Pretty awesome, IMO.
At work. I feel like I don't have anything to do, and I don't want to be here anyway.
So many other things I'd rather be doing: Thinking about Destiny Crusade; Practicing my music; loving my plush and my boyfriend; learning about myself and magic with my bird friend; shopping for new clothes to try and see that girl in the mirror more often.
Fucking work. fucking capitalism.
Channeling stellar and Terran energy last night put a pretty big strain on my collector systems.
But I was surprised and delighted to learn that could handle the load, even if only for a short amount of time. And I could handle a lot more than I thought I could.
Huskybots are designed to be Rex, but its nice to do some real-word testing
Other complaining about technology
My mice have a habit of acting in very stupid ways.
My Logitech Performance MX has worked flawlessly on my MacMini for Months. And all of a sudden last week, it decides it wants to freeze and not respond, at random. So, I buy a refurbished one, thinking that Mouse is just old and dying (i've had her for something like 3-4 years, and I use tech HARD) New Mouse shows up, and it keeps having the same issue. I do some digging, and apparently, the Unifying receiver just doesn't play nice with USB 3? Like.. what? Then why did it work just fine when I first switched to the Mini?
So now I'm on the hunt for a Mac compatible mouse that has 4 thumb buttons with assignable functions (preferably separated by application) and horizontal scrolling.
Why don't computers ever make glitching sense?
A dive through an OLD archive.
So, I finally got an IDE to USB adapater, so I can try and get data off some old, OLD hard drives i've had kicking around for... Years. As i find funny or neat things, I'll share them. Memes, cool things, images sent through time from my past to comfort me in my present, in hopes I'll feel better about the future. For my first one, A semi-threatening macro
*beep* Raow! Are there new friends to find here?
Huskybots, nerd, trans, PoC, furry, poly, thirsty AF, budding stoner.
