Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

I'm just so tired. I felt like these topics were about to be fucking settled and people would move the fuck on, but here I am, ready to pull out defenses of lifestyle furry and gender transition I wrote in '05 for use against edgy hipsters and apply it to a professional journalist.

I hate 2021 so fucking much. Good thing tigers can run perfectly well on hate for years at a time. 🐯​​

I feel like I'm having another allergic reaction to my own alleged culture. Just keep running into things-- and people-- that make me feel low-grade icky about everything.

I'm so fucking tired of people picking on the things that I love. I thought I was done with this shit after the first-gen troll farms fell apart.

But nope, here they are, right down to an article by some steely-eyed leftist shithead who's determined furry transhumanism is "narcissism" because he vaguely read somewhere Extropians are both libertarians and transhumans, and Libertarian Things Are Selfish, plus a healthy dose of "the only reason someone would want to engage in self-expression is because they think they're the center of the universe."

Toxic. Fucking toxic, right on top of a bunch of uniquely cruel and petty-minded TERFery, and dealing with My Dear Allies getting a basic political fact wrong*. And I don't have time to shovel it out today. And I don't have time to sit around feeling like my life is on the defensive.

All I can do to reassure myself is remember that our very presence INFURIATES these people. They walk around with the same kind of ennui and low-grade irritation every day just because we do our thing. That feels pretty good honestly, because increasingly these are people I WANT to be unhappy. >_<

* Trump CAN invoke executive privilege as an ex-president. There was precedent set in 2001. The leftists confidently knee-jerking that he can't are not 100% wrong but yeah it's about 80%. >___<

@Phorm @001zlnv @anthracite PHORM WINS. FLAWLESS VICTORY.

@hystericempress @Daikanu She's indisputably got that Bea energy. Noelle has the Yooni Council's eye on this one for sure... <3

@kistaro Back when I did audio transcription, if we had a client who absolutely demanded our work contain zero "inaudible" markers--- which required us to make a lot of absurd guesses and made the whole thing about 4x more stressful-- I would just start
"guessing" the names of jazz musicians. "We're going to have having a new mingus(?) in the fourth quarter, and we will be sending a new management team to South Corea(?)." O:)

Nobody ever said a damn word.

the vending machines
dispense little capsules
with vending machines inside 'em
and those tiny machines
dispense tiny capsules
and so on ad infinitum

@fineursine I'd insist you take me with!

@Phorm You know exactly what you were getting into, Foxtrot-34DD. Report to the airpump at 00[hypnosigil] hundred hours, cadet, and then get yourself into a dispenser capsule and wait until instructed to [five seconds of 56kbit infostatic and vocoded alphanumerics]. Oh, and you overpaid by 30 cents. *coin clatter*
