If any of you ever need a math consultant for your naughty teacher porn blackboards PLEASE contact me, PhD students don't make enough and I want to put hilarious overly well-thought out math in unlikely places and I'm available for very reasonable rates

old business laptops are great anyways, lots of LEDs, not portable at all unless you like lugging around a brick

I have a soft spot for computers just good enough to run a browser and LibreOffice in debian decently

I just updated a pretty old debian (old laptop whose power supply cable was broken) and I got the notice for a thunderbird hotfix and for the actual fix simultaneously

there's just something appealing about sitting down to read a nice book, or reading a bit on the train

I really wanna read books more regularly in 2019. I used to read a ton as a kid (well, I had a lot of time, no video games and I guess hyperfocus) and I feel like getting a bit of a reading habit back (instead of a book every now and then) would be nice

we can be mindful of predators without assuming friendships are bad. we can stop fucking pretending everything in the queer community is about sex, too, while we're at it.

i am really disappointed in some of y'all. the tactics you're using to dehumanize and remove agency from people who happen to be below a ridiculous, arbitrary age cutoff of 18 are the same as those used by bigots to say that minors' identities are invalid.

i am so, so, _so_, disappointed. it's not just here; this sort of outlook is systemic throughout queer communities. stop fucking telling kids to just "stay in their corner and play". this does not feel like the queer community i thought would welcome me when i was younger.

the drama is making me really angry mainly because people are shitting out the /horrible/ take that adults and minors cannot be friends without it being "creepy".

fuck that shit. fuck that shit to Hades and back. this is the kind of shit that ruins our already fucked up community so much more. you're not doing risk reduction here, you're just making shit weird when it's not.

i am friends with my coworkers. i have been working with them since i was 16; they are grad students. that is not a fucking creepy relationship, and honestly fuck you if you assume minors being friends with not-minors is problematic.

Folks please consider CWing your joke meta posts as such.

Tricking people with CWs makes me feel uncomfortable as their function is to content warn.

Especially if it’s about certain bodily functions.

Some people have strong aversions to running into talk about that topic unwarned for.

money (-), mh (-), asking for help 

My mental health has been really bad the past month and I've really burned out from doing commissions, which is my primary source of income.

I haven't been able to do as much as I've needed to so I'm running out of money for bills and food, and I generally need a break from commissions for a couple of weeks after I've finished the ones i've committed to because I really can't do anymore without a break.

An important thing!
