GooooooOOOOD Afternoon and happy Friday to all my soff frens! Keep it clean and watch those seams out there today! We've got all your favorite tunes in queue for you starting right now, so keep those paffers tappin' to DJ Nappin's Rappin' right here on 89.9 K-E-R-Plush. The softest sounds bound to turn your frowns upside down.

Something I learned over the past week: If you go into every conversation with an assumption that the other person is acting in bad faith from moment 0: that is acting in bad faith itself.

There is no conversation to be had if you assume the other is always lying or biased.

"What is it?™"

Queer people aren't pedophiles
Furries aren't animal abusers
Babyfurs aren't pedophiles
Kinky people aren't abusers
Otherkin, trans people, and plural people aren't mentally ill

Some of these folks are those things, but it isn't a direct connection and it frustrates me to no end when people make these associations

@leafnoodle do... do you think love can bloom, even on the jattlefield?

You cannot trust what a cat says in the kitchen. Whatever they tell you. Its lies

Thanks to @xurnami for this article on the effects of trauma in queer social relationships:

"This, I believe, is why traumatized communities struggle so profoundly with loving one another. We have been hard-wired for suspicion and terror of betrayal, which in turn feeds into the logics of disposability and incarceration: we come to believe that making a mistake — any mistake, whether big or small — makes someone bad and dangerous. We believe that we need to punish people who are bad and dangerous, that some people are simply too bad and too dangerous to keep among us."

"Smart ovens have been turning on overnight and preheating to 400 degrees": https://www.theverge.com/2019/8/14/20802774/june-smart-oven-remote-preheat-update-user-error

Note the manufacturer's response: must be user error.

Bzzzzt.

A high-heat appliance turning on unattended is a big safety problem: fires start that way. If your user interface is such that multiple users are having that happen, it isn't the user that's at fault, it's your shitty user interface.
