Most textbooks aren't anywhere near as good as this. Not only is this funny. It also illustrates the concept in a really good way.

If you're straight, you can pretty much just leave this place right away. This is queer heaven. I'm only here because I like computers, and so do queers, apparently... 🤷♂️

The trans radical: We need to destroy the DNA. (I will turn into another gender.)

The feminist radical: We need to destroy DNA expectations. (No gender is necessary.)

My perspective: Darlings, did we forget our meds today? I love ya both, but...

Will I please you?

Probably not. But WYSIWYG.

A lot of what I eat is vegan, or at least close to it. Not so consciously. What annoys me is these people who consider themselves oh so precious because they would NEVER eat meat.

Most of us humans live on wheat or rice based diets already. Here comes Mr. Moral Superiority to take away what little joy in life was left...

Having any amount of material wealth in any location on earth would still suck if you didn't also have immaterial wealth. Imagine living alone in a big mansion with no friends, and people only talk to you because you have money.

I'm a three-way switch:

1. Entertained by a person.
2. Entertained by a drink.
3. Sad.

The cost of running a Mastodon instance:

1 TB of storage (an outrageous amount of storage if you ask me) is what you need for 35 active users, and it'll cost you €14/mo at Scaleway (European cloud provider). On top of that comes €38/mo for the web server, counting in at €52/mo.

Can you imagine how expensive it gets for a popular instance?

The way the autistic "narrow interests" part of my #AuDHD manifest itself is not in the learning department. It's in the motivational department. I have broad lexical knowledge but a narrow ability to perform, especially if sustained effort is needed.

I sound like an encyclopaedia but I need help in everyday life, which I have only started receiving a little bit of in the past year or so. It's just really hard for me to take care of myself, even if the consequences are very bad.

It's a challenge to find a viable career when you're so picky. I worked as a software developer for over a decade, but with repeated burnouts. They kept giving me projects that were too boring to stay motivated. I tried out ADHD drugs to compensate, but they made me unstable, so I had to quit those, and the industry itself.

I can pretend to function like a normal human for a few months while I'm still excited by the novelty of the situation (such as starting school or landing a new job), but once everyday life settles in, things start to get difficult due to the motivational issues.

You'd be surprised how many people have no friends.

Being lonely is as dangerous to your health as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day, say scientists.

How is this supposed to make me feel better?

@Zergling_man Does he?

I now know two earworm swing songs about trains...

Johnny Mercer, The Pied Pipers - On the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmBKHSZ1pcU

Glen Miller - Chattanooga Choo-Choo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGZ6jigic_I

Ironically, both are American songs, and America has next to zero passenger rail these days...

Why is there next to no passenger rail in America these days?

Well, see, one of them big fat cigar smoking capitalists in Detroit thought trains would be bad for car sales, see? So they took care of that real good, see?

@Zergling_man I don't like that word. I'm gonna wash your dirty mouth with soap, young man.

@Zergling_man I have a friend from Florida. He says "nigger" when he's bored. I know there's a language thing in the south. But most of the world uses that word differently.
