Any neo-pronouns or he/him if you must.
Not new, I've just had bad luck with main instance picking.
Boosts are seldom a reflection of what I think of the person posting (because I don't check unless I see red flags), but usually a reflection of what I think of the post itself.
I block random people who tag me out of nowhere (but replies are usually fine).

if this is about the universedon guy and .art (which there's really no way to tell because this happens so often the chances we saw the same one most recently are slim), it's especially funny how they were like "literally every bad thing you said about us is true, how dare you block us for it?"

I'm so fucking predictable. There'll be a man that everyone around me is like "omg he's so pretty/handsome/hot/whatever" and I'm like 🤷 but then I'll see him playing a femboy or gender bender art of him or something and suddenly I get it

    @rose @riotmuffin the best part? usually, it wouldn't be a good idea to go smashing random cars because you don't know why someone is driving and the chances are they depend on their car because of the shitty public transportation system. this gives free targets (or most likely exactly one free target) that are morally okay to smash

    People asking me why I set the boundaries I set is weird to me.

    That's like asking why would I want to keep people who I know won't have respect for me or my living space out of that space.

    We all know bad people exist, right?

    Denver last year offered subsidies for buying electric bikes

    Their first 600 were snapped up in 10 minutes. Demand was huge

    Denver ended up issuing over 4,700 (about 2,300 of which went to low-income residents)

    Research shows it reduced car-miles driven in the city by 100K a week

    My takeaway?

    We should have ebike subsidies everywhere, and now. Cheaper than electric car subsidies, and arguably even more catalytic

    @carlmjohnson @clive hell I live in a very small city and even so the e-bikes wouldn't be much slower than a car
    If I could get a trike with electric assist I'd take it everywhere

    raphaelmorgan,
    @raphaelmorgan@disabled.social avatar

    @jdstewart2008 @carlmjohnson @clive oh, cool! /gen
    but let me rephrase: if I could afford one (or get it with one of these subsidies) I'd take it everywhere 😅
    maybe someday... that price isn't unreasonable or anything I just can't really afford to spend that much on a one-person vehicle especially with how easy they are to steal

    my friends. mates. comrades. colleagues. buddies.

    i do not need distro advice. i have been through the list. i have not needed distro advice since i went along with a handful of friends literally making our own distro in like 2006.

    my first linux was gentoo — yes, stage 1. i have had SuSe because it was the only that came with out-of-the-box ISDN support that allowed me to go online with a fresh install. i have had arch, and our handmade distro was an arch fork. i have done LFS a handful of times; i have done LFS on an alpha; i have done LFS on an ancient PC with ISA cards.

    i have even had NetBSD on a 32-bit SPARC. i have had OpenBSD too, on a Jornada.

    i have had a collection of grml rescue CDs. i have had debian (and learned that nothing breaks as reliably as debian does). my first ubuntu was, what, 8.3? i have had fedora too.

    please just take 3 seconds to consider that the person you are talking to may not, in fact, be a bloody beginner who has never done a manual kernel configuration, tinkered with package manager source code, or repaired their hardware with a soldering iron.

    this kind of behaviour is exactly why i eventually stopped engaging with the FLOSS community at all. any kind of communication, any kind of venting or asking questions is seen as proof that you have no idea what the fuck you are even doing.

    this is why FLOSS is a bunch of white men who will frown at anyone who admits not knowing something or having made a mistake. y'all make damn sure to show the rest of us that doing these things means we don't belong. means we're not as good, as smart, and as knowledgeable as you. means any unsolicited advice you pull out off your literal ass will be valuable as gold to us.

    this is why i left. 10 years later, nothing has changed. not one thing. i livepost my hysterical experiences after my mint system got completely fucked up by doing an upgrade, and y'all swarm me to ask if i have considered trying a distro that isn't aimed at beginners?

    i have, actually. in two thousand and fucking FOUR. there's a reason that i didn't ASK.

    @vagina_museum precisely the reason some people have a problem with the word. they want to other us. they want to be seen as the normal, default, only human option

    raphaelmorgan,
    @raphaelmorgan@disabled.social avatar

    @derickr @vagina_museum I've actually never seen the take that "woke" is a slur. just that it's often used in an appropriative way and in those instances it says certain things about the beliefs of the sayer: usually that they think being respectful to marginalized people is bad. the use of "cis" also implies some things: e.g. that the person saying it believes trans people exist and (usually) that we're a natural part of human diversity. definitely not a slur though lol

    Conservatives: It is our duty to ask every possible question about trans people.

    Trans people: Okay ask us if we're happy being trans.

    Conservatives: No, not that one.

    raphaelmorgan,
    @raphaelmorgan@disabled.social avatar

    @fkamiah17 @lowqualityfacts if someone has a closed mind that trans people shouldn't be allowed to be happy, they're conservative (at least on that topic; many people are conservative on some topics and progressive on others) no matter what they say
