people are always gonna think you're weird. theyre always gonna find something "cringe" about you. your hair or your gender or your art or your favorite show or how you eat your eggs. the best thing you can do is just laugh at them for caring about that kind of thing and keep being yourself

just got stuck behind someone stopped dead in the middle of a parking lot because they were waiting for a couple of minutes for a single parking space to open #awesome

i swear any time i need to go on a time-sensitive errand the only drivers allowed on the road are ones who never touched a car before today ..

oh finally sitting down and eating the arayes and these are so awesome. maybe i went a little light on the seasoning though? (she says after already having increased the amount by a decent portion because the recipe felt like it was underseasoning..)

tried making arayes tonight! i think they turned out pretty okay ! i feel like i overstuffed a few of them, but it's surprisingly tricky to fill a pita uniformly with meat ..

i wanted to make a tahini-based sauce with them but i forgot to ask summer to get lemons at the grocery store oops

thinking about the grossly transmisogynistic episode of futurama where bender poses as a woman to compete in sports, which is framed as a very bad thing. and then there's an episode from two seasons prior where leela poses as a man to join the military which is framed as a good, empowering thing

it's hard to quantify the damage this all did to the public perception of trans women, but it absolutely did passively influence how people see trans women. it's undeniable that shows like this directly contributed to the climate we find ourselves in now and it just feels gross and awful. i'm tired

(if you aren't a trans woman, your takeaway from this post should be "wow, that's awful. i'm going to go find three trans women and give each of them twenty dollars")

it feels like every long-running sitcom from the 2000s will eventually hit you in the face with the Transmisogynistic Episode. there will be an episode about crossdressing or the olympics or whatever, and you will be met with the most disgusting view of trans women possible, played for laughs

it sucks. queer characters are often played for laughs or made invisible- a stereotypically effeminate gay man, a butch or tomboy character who is never allowed to be a trans man- but none find themselves shown quite as brutally as trans women, where the portrayal aims to provoke an outraged feeling

i'm working on updating the amnesia codebase to compile on aarch64 platforms and a lot of it scares me . it's old enough to be using wchar_t everywhere and there are pointer comparisons to false (like mpMesh->GetSkeleton() == false)..

medley made spam for breakfast and i put it on a flatbread and it's making me crave peameal bacon sandwich

asked my teacher what programming language we were going to learn today and he just said "go". okay??? what did I do???

i really hate how ai and modern ml have overridden the ability to research a lot of procgen or other algorithmic things in programming . it's so much harder to research when every result now is informing you of The Helpful AI Solution or suggesting a ml model that takes 20gb memory to run

i hate people who want to be "impartial" about harassment campaigns. there weren't two flawed but well-intentioned sides of gamergate, there's women in the games industry and there's gross men harassing said women en masse using "ethics" as a smokescreen

the original "ethical concerns" were men upset about a video game being about mental health instead of slaughtering people from another continent, and men upset about the fictitious notion that the dev of said game had sex with someone- who didn't even review the game at all- for a positive review

it's funny how when you realize it's just men looking for a justification for their misogyny every single part of it clicks into place. these are all the same men who were sending harassing emails and death threats at random before, they just now had a convenient excuse to go public and organize

she didnt know what fire emblem was but she did say “is it hard or do you just suck at it” which is the funniest thing anyones ever said to me

this is going to sound like a joke but the nurse actually legit told me i was complaining about being stuck in fire emblem thracia 776 when i was coming up from the anesthesia LMAO

honestly for how much flak re1 and 2 tank controls get they're really responsive games. i think the lack of aim assist in 1 really drags it down but 2 feels very good to play

that said 2 definitely feels a lot better than 1. the player has better aim, going through doors and up stairs is faster, there are fewer camera angles that are totally asinine and fewer situations where an enemy is placed so close to a door that it hits you before you can react (i hate hunters..)

the obsession with whether or not fans of a thing are "larpers" is an illness. exact kind of lame gatekeeping bullshit as the guy who'd see a girl in a band shirt and go "name five of their albums" or the comic book guy who has to prove he knows more about batman than you, but for a new generation

Replying to @ponett.dog

when new people show interest in your interests you're supposed to encourage that, not go "holy larp" and publicly shame them for not already being in the deep end like you are

i worked on netcode for my prototype today . i think tomorrow i need to sit and do some 3D modeling before i can make much more progress though ..

this part of re2 has me playing a small child .. look at how she has to climb boxes..

i really like the simple design of my website but i think i want to redo it soon . i want pretty css and custom cursor and pixelly theming ..
