for some reason that Coates / Klein moment about immediacy / “winning” embedded itself deeply in my cortex and I know it’s not logical but I feel all these same neurons firing

I volunteered for a bunch of the logistics this year and it was a big project that went pretty good. somehow 15lbs cooked in ~2 hrs. convection went crazy on that bird. made soup today after gifts. took a couple hours of being home before I felt like, oh, we did it. these are the last of the dishes

I don't think transgender athletes are the problem facing girls and women in sports.

I’ve had an intense time the last couple of days and this is the rewatch I reached for. so much to learn here for Animation technique & performance, but just so playful

y'know as a teen computer dork working in fast food I was somehow able to bond with my dad over a software culture comic (I HAD A TSHIRT) and maybe this can heal something about how THAT all turned out

I don't know how to start / cue a habit of regularly organizing photos and vids. I always have new videos from dance classes, rehearsals, freestyle, events, etc but they seem like a fundamentally different category of media, mixed in with photos of flowers and cats

It's finally up! A collection of links to news articles, interviews, panels, etc for & related to FUoS, sexism, & online harassment in games. FUoS was active more than a decade ago, so it's been an interesting exploration of the discourse from that time fatuglyorslutty.com/links.html
