I like knitting, math, and uplifting the proletariat.

MxRemy,

Very excited to see how many actually do!

This time of year, there’s a zillion of these loudly and clumsily zooming around right outside my backdoor. They’re very curious about everything that moves; they’ll just like stare you down, hovering a foot in front of your face. Too cute!! They are also kinda eating the landlords mudroom… but so slowly that I’m...

MxRemy,

I wonder that too! What’s so interesting? Seems like most critters this size don’t ever really look at you this way

MxRemy,

This is a show and not a movie, but definitely The Magicians. The show is pretty incredible, and more or less abandons everything wrong with the original. The books mostly spend way too many pages following all the MC’s petty grievances, and he’s like a massive incel.

MxRemy,

Yessss, that’s exactly how I felt! I only even forced myself to finish it so I’d feel qualified to write a terrible review lol

MxRemy,

I think this problem kinda carries over from Reddit too. There was more of everybody there of course, just because it was larger, but I think the demographics broke down similarly? On the other hand, I think Tumblr leaned the opposite direction, so it would be neat to see if that followed through on Wafrn (fediverse Tumblr-esque platform).

No idea what to actually do about it though, unfortunately… 😭

MxRemy,

As an example of the problem, no one in my entire social circle has any hope of ever owning property, and many of us are just barely skirting homelessness. Unfortunately this is extremely common in the same world where some people own multiple homes. If you found yourself in that situation, I imagine the best course of action depends on where you live, but a good choice might be to convert your property into a non-equity low-income housing cooperative. There are lots of other options though, the main thing is just to get it into the hands of people who need it.

MxRemy,

Omg soooo manyyyyyy. I dunno how to count them in-app but it’s gotta be at least a hundred.

MxRemy,

Lots of my friends are only on discord so I have to be to reach them. I do also use Matrix though

MxRemy, (edited )

I was in favor of this until I started reading Marta Russell. She lays out the history of using the concept of assisted dying to do things like get rid of people with disabilities, increase profits for hospitals, decrease funding for home nurses, convince people who are no longer productive that they shouldn’t live anymore, etc etc. It seems like a good idea on paper, because bodily autonomy and stuff, but capitalist ghouls coerce people into it.

MxRemy,

MxRemy,

Zeno’s Paradox, even though it’s pretty much resolved. If you fire an arrow at an apple, before it can get all the way there, it must get halfway there. But before it can get halfway there, it’s gotta get a quarter of the way there. But before it can get a fourth of the way, it’s gotta get an eighth… etc, etc. The arrow never runs out of new subdivisions it must cross. Therefore motion is actually impossible QED lol.

Obviously motion is possible, but it’s neat to see what ways people intuitively try to counter this, because it’s not super obvious. The tortoise race one is better but seemed more tedious to try and get across.

MxRemy,

Whoaaaa, this looks AMAZING! You made the masa?? 😍

MxRemy,

I don’t think I’d want to be cis. Being part of a marginalized group, with all the pain that entails, has made me a more empathetic person. I would like to pass for cis at least a little better though. Partly for survival reasons, but also there’s definitely some kinda internalized transphobia or something mixed in there that I should work on.

MxRemy,

Like PeachMan said, if you try to lay down the filament and then place the tile, it’ll harden too fast for that to work. You can use a 3d pen to attach two things along the seam where the two things are touching though, I’ve done that.

MxRemy,

I don’t think I’ve ever had a job with weekends off. Or even any other specific days consistently off from one week to the next, more generally. It does sound nice though, I think I’d like that.

Is there any medicine that can give me happy hormones and does not need a doctor's prescription?

Things are becoming more depressing every day and I can’t afford for professionals and don’t want to jump to the last resort or drugs. Is there a medicine that can make me happy if I take it in proper doses and does not require a doctor’s prescription?

MxRemy,

All the people saying exercise… I swear that has to vary across people. I went to the gym thrice a week for two years and hated every gd second of it.
