wolfe but sad @wolfgang@awoo.space

right now, if i could choose my presentation magically and with no effort and no social repercussions, i'd probably go for "religious construction worker by day, carmen sandiego impersonator by night"

i would like to take off the costume now please 🙃

(ok so after checking the comments on genius (of course) and rereading the lyrics, it's probably not actually about driving in traffic, but about a crash

but still, an important realization for me to have, and most likely an association that i'm expected to have for that line as a listener, regardless of any concrete events being described)

@else otis (right); pronouns: he/him; notable body part, and subject of much internet outrage: udders

otis from barnyard is transmasc confirmed?????

hey i managed to find that program (the english original; i never published my translation lol) on an ancient website dedicated to showcasing little applets for my favorite window manager of all time :3

@else has anyone suggested that barnyard is a trans cow-boy movie yet? (probably a tumblr thread from 2015)

@else thank you so much for this thread ​

@Hevros welcome

@else the difference between wolf and wolfe

me: *signs up for a website using the username "wolfe"*

confirmation email, 20 seconds later: "Hello wolfe!"

me: "hey they even use the name i like! ​ "

i remember wanting to do more (though i don't remember what exactly), and being frustrated that despite knowing some C, the code was still completely unintelligible to me

core memory unlocked: at age 9 or so (!!) i translated a linux date applet into hebrew by replacing the bitmap font with hand/mouse drawn hebrew letters

then going into the code and replacing the month names with the garbled strings of latin letters that corresponded to where i put the hebrew letters inside the font sprite

me as an autistic kid: we should reform society to use decimal clocks and calendars

me as an autistic adult: we should reform society to use dozenal numbers everywhere instead of just clocks and calendars

one of them would make a great name for a mastodon instance for non-furry non-vent stuff 🙃 but i still don't know if i want to take that pain in the sensitive place upon myself

anyway it's 4:46 am now already and i have these shiny new domains that make me laugh
