Hi, I'm Rowdy! I'm a furry, specifically, a Leukos Arsenikon Crux. I'm a nocturnal space-faring creature with glowing eyes, wispy hair, a long crooked tail, big fluffy ears and sharp claws! I do science, math, and art! Main site: rowedahelicon.com Check out my blog: thestoa.blog

[It notices you]

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.

With all of my websites finally patched (Node + PHP + a disastrous Ubuntu update), I am back to work. I've posted a free post on my Patreon regarding an upcoming leave of absence, I will have another one later today: https://www.patreon.com/rowedahelicon/posts/notice-of-173343971

Sweeny Tim is such a baby

Sales in Wonka ($:WNKA) have declined, inflation blamed

I get to make friends with people all over the world and we all get to discover things about ourselves using words and concepts people couldn't even dream of 20-30 years ago.

everything will be okay

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

(the first meme re-draw was done by @rowdythecrux.dev, btw! love commissioning her for random stuff because she always catches my mental wavelength. I loved this other piece even though it creeped my fiancé out. lol :U)

Poe and Arty will be hanging out in my office with me while I wrap up the PHP fixes on the SCG web servers!

My only takeaway from the PHP RCE stuff right now is that a ton of websites still use PHP so PHP haters can suck my fat cunt

Bad day to launch my PHP based certificate authority

With a date of November 12th set, I have begun thinking about how to handle my recovery! I'll be sharing some Halloween YCH's in a few days, and will be doing pwww streams soon afterwards! I don't want people just giving me money, it makes me anxious, let me draw you things!

I regret to announce that Pillowfort will be closing on Dec. 4th. You can read more on Pillowfort: www.pillowfort.social/posts/8413273

I don't think many folks think of them as portfolio stuff ether. Like it looks better to have your stuff out there instead of stuffed away in a HDD, adds some extra merit as a game designer.

Programming is art. Don't let any AI chud tell you otherwise.

I always follow the 621 rule at cons because if i don’t get my 6 hours of sleep you are going 2 see 1 bitch

today I drew… tomorrow I draw… aaah ze life of ze artist

with the sunsetting of decomp.dev, people really need to come to terms with just how much damage vibecoders have done to our community and OSS in general. encounter is a fellow dusklight dev and friend, and seeing people treat him as replaceable in the scene is upsetting.

If I can use AI to make games and programs, then why the fuck would I need Epic or Tim Sweeney? How is he always so wrong and stupid?

Born in the wrong body :/

Mmm autism flavor 🍁🍂🎃

I'm on my way!! 🎈

RJ Mitte nooooooooooo ;;

They showed us months ago they were doing it with Fortnite, and yet too many supposedly anti-AI streamers kept streaming it. It's not going to stop. They are too deep into the hole now to turn back. Stop streaming shit by Epic. Fuck, uninstall the fucking store app.

Also keep in mind that those people will say or do anything to manufacture an enemy to rally their base of fearful, ignorant voters around. Reality isn't a factor to them, only power. Continue to be yourself, and don't let anyone tell you who or what you're supposed to be.

Any furry historians here? I took pictures of as many of my old convention badges as I could, going all the back to Anthrocon 1999, and put them up here: www.flickr.com/photos/dmuth...
