The only centrism I care for or want is the perfect blend of grindcore and yacht rock.

Thinking about rat milk has led me to wonder whether you could make Skaven paneer and I feel like I've peaked for the day, really.

I don't think white people should do science. I think when they do it they're reinforcing anti-blackness.

Lemongrass and eucalyptus, because this weather is miserable, so I fancied something fresh.

Relatedly, I would like something that indicates "this is me palling about with my similarly-irony-poisoned mate and does not merit reply, random passer-by."
The greatest social media tool never invented was the option to limit replies to people who have shown they can be normal for five minutes.

Was on the fence about whether to revive my old lappy with a new SSD and battery (Auntie Lan ain't kind to her tools) but having seen the secondhand prices and since it's an I5 w/ 16GB, bits have been ordered.

The right realised a long time ago that if they keep screeching about being persecuted and unheard it gives centrist wanks who basically agree with them an excuse to give them everything they want.
Starmer gov pandered to racists, racists still say they aren't racist enough.
Starmer gov pandered to genocidaires, who still say they aren't genocidaire enough.
Starmer govt panders to gender critters, gender critters still attack them.
Fascist humiliation kink as public policy is The Worst.

A few years ago, when Baldur's Gate was being remastered, they added an expansion with a new storyline.

A single shopkeeper within the castle happens to be trans, which whe reveals if you ask about her name.

This made gamers react in a normal & sane way.

So weird. It's as if people in Europe also have access to both the internet and contempt.

Just got on a train leaving the North Norfolk coast. You know what? On the whole, it actually went pretty damn well.

Still a bloody long way, mind.
I am at a railway station and I do not like it, although I suspect it could prove to be the highlight of the next four days.

Barring a miracle, next year I think a Queermas event.

Love to see it. Five good things in 2025 from me:

1. I have felt a part of a community
2. Got better at managing my boundaries and letting people see me a little
3. Made new friends
4. Released music. It had been a very, very long time.
5. Started HRT
some good things that happened to or I realised about me this year

1. I have friends who love and care about and will protect me
2. I'm capable of love and have lots to give
3. I'm not fundamentally broken
4. I do want a bit more out of life than sitting in the dark
5. Started HRT

I have *serious* love for Allan Holdsworth and black will always be the colour of my flag.

lmao I made it when I was 15. "Enby" because I'm nonbinary, and while I know nothing about "econ"omics, I figured being socialist/anarchist covered that. Don't really love it anymore but it's stuck.

My lovely friend really needs help. If you can, please do. I cannot offer much, but if professional music tuition is your thing, I'm offering eight hours of guitar lessons as a finder's fee for anyone who can hook her up.
if anyone in the pdx area knows of a room for rent to an older disabled woman for $5-600/mo (bills included) hmu; can’t afford more than that
so far I’ve been physically assaulted by my roommate and had several thousand dollars in firearms and equipment stolen by my ex-roommate, and now I’m losing my housing voucher and being evicted because it was in my ex-roommate’s name

happy holidays I guess

When you think of it, ahegao is flawed and harmful bullshit which never should have been invented and any proper leftist movement should seek to abolish it.

At 2200 EST this year’s FREE short story will drop; it’s set in my new fantasy world (the novels are already written and will appear this year!) and you’ll have to read it to know why I have included this ca.1930 painting of a Tibetan monastery.

Your yearly reminder that St. Nicholas is the patron saint of sx workers. How did he help sx workers? Not with punishment, but with bags of gold coins.

Be like St. Nicholas: instead of supporting policing, give your money to wh*res 💰💰💰
