I desperately wish there was a medicine that specifically and only caused phallic configuration reproductive organ structure to metamorphose into yonic configuration reproductive organ structure.

I have dysphoria about many things but the most intense source of dysphoria by far is THAT.

I don’t care if I never “look feminine”

I DON’T WANT THAT THING ON ANY BODY WITHIN WHICH I AM FORCED TO LIVE.

Generally less masculine in other ways would be fine too.

If I tried very hard and perused my mind very carefully, it is possible I may find some way to care at least a tiny bit less than I already do about having tits. If i get them i might seek a mastectomy. If only i could donate them…

It’s because those are literally the words he used, and went to court for the right to use, against a scuba diving specialist during the Thailand cave flooding incident where children were trapped.

You need to be more alarmed about this.

Conservatives (and the rich tend to side with conservatives) have no imagination and project their own intentions on others.

I cannot possibly stress this enough:

IF THEY THINK WE’RE GOING TO VIOLENTLY ATTACK THEM, IT’S SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE PREPARING TO ATTACK US THEMSELVES.

They have THOROUGHLY demonstrated that they can’t imagine anyone wanting to do anything but that which they themselves want to do, are preparing to do, or are ALREADY DOING.

Mark my words:

The rich are preparing to exterminate us all.

i wish every sane person on earth would only ever respond to elon musk with the phrase “okay, pedo-guy”

Oh, what’s that?

Palantir doesn’t like it when people know about THEIR dirty laundry?

Wow. Golly. Gee whiz. Color me shocked with a marker that is bone fucking dry.

Maybe they should’ve thought about that before trying to fuck with OUR private business.

Palantir has violated social contract and no longer deserves privacy.

Okay–yes, true, real, absolutely accurate; there is definitely phrasing better than what I used to describe what we want to do. It would also be nice to not be starving to death while doing this work, but my mindset is rather fixated on reinforcing beyond question that this isn’t for anyone to get rich and that we intend to take all possible measures against that kind of exploitative shit. One thing in particular that is objectively better than “a very comfortable life for me” is “a fairly comfortable life for a whole lot of people”.

Damn bruh some boomers and gen-x-ers are such shitty parents that their kids are demoting them to childless…

See, this is why I refuse to have kids. I don’t want a kid to kill themselves as a direct result of my bringing them to this world against their will.

i wish we could send all of AI to the “morg”.

me, my best friend, her husband, and our mutual friends all want to charter a nonprofit llc charity organization whose mission is to aid individuals who do not have stable housing and, through this organization because corporations have more rights than people in this hellscape nightmare world, purchase this particular gorgeous 18 acre plot of land in rural [REDACTED STATE]. there, we shall found our Gay Furry Commune, sharing our roof and walls with those who lack, non-transactionally, although persons who are lgbtq etc we intend to prioritize for assistance–specifically to help them EVACUATE THE UNITED STATES. Or, if they manage to build up the gumption and elbow grease, to metastasize into a gay furry commune branch of their own, provided we can help them locate an available land plot, guide them through the organizational setup, and coordinate the assets.

Housing is so absurdly expensive that we figure even a ‘donate what you can’ (and if you have nothing to give then that is okay) model that brutally undercuts the market by 90% on average will still be enough to balance the nonprofit’s ledger or even expand its mission. Because It’s not that a nonprofit can’t ‘make money’–it’s that it can’t keep money. The funds gathered via donation etc must be earmarked for the work. An organization still has bills to pay and has to be able to hire contractors for specialized work on occasion, they have to have a budget for the pursuit of projects.

Landlords get to keep their ill gotten gains. This organization does not. Its books are required to be transparent, its funds are required to be accounted for, with absolutely no “payouts” to “investors”.

It’s creating a great deal of artificial scarcity, causing prices to skyrocket in the one thing i still cared about, which was computers and personal electronics in general.

but moreover, it’s not JUST that the content that it generates is shit, it’s that it’s all gormlessly uncreative regurgitation. A PERSON can create shit, and it’d still be more interesting both intellectually and emotionally than the slop output of a hallucination box. An actual imagination synthesizes new ideas out of extant ones–still derivative, but transformative and novel. AI will never actually create anything original, though, because all it can put out is just shoddy facsimiles of what was put in.

… ever feel like, although entropy is inevitable, living things have some limited ability to create a bit of an eddy in that flow, a localized spot of turbulence where the intention and agency of biological processes uses some of that energy as it passes to sort this, and store that, and painstakingly whittle a little signal from a lot of noise…?

meanwhile AI … doesn’t. It’s not signal. It’s JUST noise. If we see any signal in it, it’s because we’re projecting it from our own perspective. As sapient minds, we’re deriving meaning from what we see, and injecting meaning into what we do. if there can be said to be any creativity in AI whatsoever, the sole province of it is the curation and–again–projection of the user. Only as much creativity as watching clouds roll across a blue sky and pondering what that cloud kinda looks like.

except in this case each one of those clouds is consuming megawatt-hours of energy, boiling off hundreds of gallons of otherwise potable water, and burning out GPU, Memory, and Storage hardware that would’ve been better utilized on literally any other activity imaginable.

yea man as much as i hate victim blaming i really want people to NOT dress themselves in a toga stitched together out of raw meat before they leap down into the pit of starving hyenas >.>

i wouldn’t be so mean as to call that attempted tourist stupid but i would sympathetically tell them “that’s rough buddy” before gesturing in their direction to address others with “please don’t do what they did.”

The cool thing about Barq for me, though, is that it functions as a proximity IFF transponder–or at least that’s how i think of it

because it shows you other furries within range. hypothetically speaking, if there IS a “local furry community” you’d want to connect with, some of them MIGHT be on Barq.

Like, by default, any fur you end up talking to on barq is going to be within hanging out / getting food / social activity range.

Just kinda wish it was a little easier to pitch group activities to the local area. I’d absolutely be interested in knowing if there’s any such events happening nearby but as it presently stands i have to actively search through fragnented and static message boards where the proximity feature has no presence, and there may be boards for your area that are not obviously named because the board names are user defined… And frankly, i have too much going on to set aside time for commiting to in-depth perusal on a regular basis where i might not even find out about anything actionable most of the time.

If the fediverse had an optional “see users near me in dirtspace” feature … I don’t think anyone would use it??? I dunno it just feels like the “meeting up with people” task and goal NEED to be compartmentalized to a specific system for that purpose so you can cut it loose entirely at a moments notice without destroying everything…

god fucking dammit that’s way too young

fuck this decade

fuck this entire timeline

I use barq!

sadly it isn’t terribly effective because there’s way too much friction when it comes to local interaction

two people have to like each other first before they can even say hi? that’s like … literally the opposite of how meeting people works though???

that isn’t to say that DMs should be unlocked but rather that there oughtta be a localized/proximity public channel where you can just sorta microblog to the void and others who are nearby enough to see it can comment.

i’d call that system “howling”. kinda like the twilight bark from the old animated 101 Dalmatians movie ^_

France ought to know better than any country that appeasement never turns out well when it comes to fascists.

i mean it’s either that or the sobbing twenties i suppose…
