Hey if you have half an hour to listen to music and are interested in some moody-ass minimalism go listen to Metamorphosis by Philip Glass. It makes me swoon every time.

explaining postfurry 

Common tropes: radical self-creation, cybernetics, bodies that glow, digitization, mind alteration, building and inhabiting world with different physical rules, mutability of form, personal apotheosis.

I did a terrible job explaining postfurry the other day. Let me try again: 

More or less, Furry is an answer to the question "what if people were also animals?" Postfurry takes that farther and asks "If we as people-animals cast aside all limitations -- both external and internal -- on our embodiments, identities, and personal ontologies, what can we become? Let's use the ideas of cyberpunk and sci-fi as a starting point, and go find out."

Gaming: Playing as a girl character in a third person game so you don't stare at a dude's butt the whole time(no homo bro)

: Playing as a girl character in a third person game so as to ease the burden of dysphoria before you even realize that's the true reason why (and/or doing so knowingly)

gaming: Using exploits to get to the cake room in Portal

#gameing: Staying in the companion cube puzzle for hours.

charging bull / capitalism hot take 

So I think that a big part of what makes Charging Bull so incredibly obnoxious as a symbol of modern capitalism is that purely as a sculpture, it's actually pretty dang good. The pose is evocative and it's full of life, and it's frustrating to see something that might otherwise be interesting repurposed into a symbol of greed and exploitation.

(There's a lot to be said for darkness, definitely, but humans tend to be pretty fond of light most of the time.)

I spent today banishing shadows, in a literal sort of way.

I'm spending this whole week installing lights in a parking garage. Seeing the space slowly get brighter and friendlier is *really* satisfying.

dysphoria 

(Mew, I basically never feel comfortable posting photos with my laryngeal bulge visible so I guess y'all are lucky? There's some other stuff here I'm kinda dysphoric about too. The witchiness kind of outweighs it (hence posting) but I still wish I didn't have to deal with these feels.)

mildly lewd 

(also when I took this photo, that hoodie was the only thing I was wearing ^_^ )

Show thread

Another amazing thing about this hoodie: the hood is so deep it's basically a flippin' cowl :D

Cowls are witchy, right?

So is there any sort of cultural consensus here yet about whether sympathy-favs will be understood or received positively?

I just now realized having the house to myself tonight means i can put on loud music without feeling self-conscious.

It is now doomtree o'clock.

Whoops getting distracted at work thinking about soft boys.

Hot take: soft boys are good. especially if they wear skirts sometimes.
