    Reminder to my comrades on bicycles to be very careful out there. I thought I saw the FedEx driver see me, but clearly I was mistaken. Now I’ve got new hardware in my knee (the good one, of course) and seven staples in my noggin.

    “Came out” as enbie to a friend (I’m pretty masc) and they came off dismissive and skeptical. I probably won’t change my name or pronouns but it still felt bad.

    Then a few months later they referenced it in like a sarcastic way. That’s all pretty shitty of them right? It definitely feels shitty and like I’m not safe to talk about that stuff without being ridiculed.

    Might be more of a demiboy, idk. She can fuck right off with that.

    I’m not brave enough to be intolerably fucking weird & exuberant in real life, so the only outside-the-house conversation I get is with the psychologist at the clinic. She seems really incredibly into it though, when I relate anecdotes about people and talk around the concept of socialising. If you’re reading this, I’m going to talk about you at the next appointment!!!

    Mostly I’m thinking she’s just being professionally polite but I’m kinda blob-no-thoughts about it. It never hurts to take people at face value! Except for when they lie completely about their intentions and have weird ulterior motives, which usually doesn’t happen!

    The reason I was gifted with borderline paranoid anxiety is because I’d be too powerful if I was unbothered, see.

    I’m like “oh I keep on top of tech, the kids won’t outpace me” but in like 30 years I’m going to go outside and see a bunch of kids throwing a tungsten cube at each other and I’ll be like “stop!” And they’ll be like “go away boomer, we’re playing chudball” and I’ll be like jesse-wtf

    From the NATOpedia page on the EU:

    On 24 February 2022, after massing on the borders of Ukraine, the Russian Armed Forces undertook an attempt for a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

    undertook an attempt for a full-scale invasion

    They had to weasel their way into simultaneously calling it a “full-scale invasion” to make it sound as bad as possible, while also trying to make Russia sound weak. They made up a Russian goal and said Russia failed at that goal that they made up.

    Taking steps to play a more active role in organizing! Been doing things mostly passively while still doing enough to not feel like I’m sitting on my hands, but I wanted to take it a step further.

    Remember comrades, join an org!

    If you told me that the voice actor for Pearl from Steven Universe would be MAGA and the voice actor of America from Hetalia would be anti Trump, I would have thought you had two heads.
