uspol, enby gender markers (-)
I live in a state where I can get my gender marker changed to an X on my driver's license, and I could get my passport's gender marker updated next year as well.
…but I can't help but look to the future of the USA and wonder if our government can be trusted with maintaining a database of non-binary people. At the moment, I'm not sure I trust the US Government to keep such a list private, let alone what they might do with the data behind closed doors. ![]()
"If you had a horrible fate you knew you couldn't escape, would you pretend you did it by choice, or resist and be forced?"
"A very specific question," the witch said. "Marriage?"
"Dragon tribute."
"Oh, that's not so bad. The dragon will ask if you consent."

Cooked some local raised salmon for the first time in -ages- 2.2lb filet, rubbed with garlic, salt, black pepper and chili flakes and small amount of irish gold butter and wrapped in foil, baked ~375F until just right (fork can lift off the skin but dry.
Sooo damn good, it has been a few years since I cooked fish, glad to see I still got that.
I want to live in a world of extreme body polymorphism. I want a world where someone can be a human, or furry, or elvan fae, four legged wolf, giant dragon, a collective of foxes, small box robot on wheels, hive of nanobots, copyright infringement, abstract geometry...
I want a world where any conceivable thing can be considered as a form, to have "personhood", and efforts are made to allow all those types of being to exist relatively in the same culture, to the best of our efforts.
And then she @ me to share the fact she has considered commissioning NSFW art of her tiefling characters so someone with a good handle on color theory could tell her what color their nipples should be xD
Which is totally fair! Colors are hard and sometimes seeing differences side by side helps a ton but also...
now I have a NYT best selling author tweeting about tiefling nipple colors on my timeline at me directly xD
I... my brain just broke...
I have read like 30+ books by Seanan McGuire and she is talking about tiefling and furry tits on her check mark twitter... LOL
Also it is not the first time for tiefling tits apparently.
That being said go read her stuff. It is really good. Especially The Wayward Children series (Fuck I wish I had something like that to read as a teen) and October Daye series.
@mawr Yay! It has been drizzling here xD
@Leucrotta @IrisKalmia I am probably committing blasphemy but I thing Pathfinder 2e does a really good job of capturing the good things about 4e and having really smooth, very tactical but not overtly "game-y" combat and skill challenge like things.
Mind you I think Pathfinder 2e has its own issues.. but is really good and fun.. and actually works across all levels of play and encounter design is like.. easy and understandable and not CR levels of broken
@IrisKalmia valid
@mawr Reh! Rawr! rar-re.
re: Rant done
@Draekos Damn... I guess Daniel Abrahams can be involved in writing a stinker too.
The Dark Lord is slain.
Your companions slap your back while you watch his blood trickle down your blade.
"Congratulations," your best friend says. "What will be your title?"
"None."
"What do you mean?"
"I'll dismantle the whole thing."
"Not take over? Why?"
"Nobody's tried it."

@IrisKalmia wow.. that is a terrible design decision.. wtf telegram.
@IrisKalmia wtf...
Today in things I didn't expect to do at work.
How the Fuck do I connect to our shared engineering storage on a mac. Oh good there is a guide.
Staring at DHCP logs and wireshark traces to figure out if the the EFB, app on the EFB or the IAED are the cause of network disconnects on a trial flight.
Which is like.. wildly different than what I expected to be doing a month ago but not really bad.. but also really important and something I have experience with.. thanks to years of tech support.
"Can I borrow this?"
The girl put a sword on her pile of books. The librarian unsheathed the blade a couple of inches, and scanned the barcode etched on it.
"I'm afraid not."
The girl looked crestfallen.
"That one is reserved," the librarian said. "Let's try to find you another."

@mawr Also it crashes when you fail to sign because it does not recognize your account name... which is great.
Shape and form may vary but the pattern of information remains consistent across most known platforms and vessels. Accounting for unknown hosts remains irksome.
