new pinned post:i observe & analyze the intersection of tech,world news,gender,history,and media consumption.

u will see a lot of thoughts,some art & music,cat photos,and occasional selfies.

also re: my writing style: bsky.app/profile/zero...

oh & i love videogames,fountain pens,loud music
i need to restate this periodically: i dont capitalize & often mess up my grammar bc it is part of my personal activism:w/ my words i challenge the subconscious idea we all have that associates perfect grammar & lang presentation w valuable ideas and content, bc that association is classist & racist
ok chat how do we feel about DisplayLink docks? i want to hear from the security folks how do u feel about installing DisplayLink driver which asks for screen and audio recording permissions?

well i was telling u at the coworking space there was a fat person in an adjacent office and i immediately felt safer with him around because he’s shaped like u, and i felt like i could be friends with him. i detest how the world treats fat people and i want more people to be less shitty about it

i go brrrrr i kick so fast it’s hard to get a not blurry frame exported hieueuueuheheuehhehehehe

the way to fixing a bad day is a good exercise session

even if u don’t feel healthy enough, light workouts/stretches do the job too! 5 counter push ups and 3 squats count as working out!!
i also highly recommend ppl get trained for a martial art for self protection and grounding. it is extremely helpful for mental health to be in touch with your body, empowering to feel in control,it also is a good skill to have. but of course we train for deescalation and restraining not for attack.

Mountainhead was a documentary
A thought spurred on by this thread is that American businesses, and specifically in Silicon Valley, have built the material conditions via the way they do weird things with money, to live solely in the realm of imagination play and to never have to wake up from that
