following thoughts
sorting thru my follow requests like:
at this point in my fedi life, I'm no longer interested in being followed by people who aren't willing to share anything about themselves. yeah I sometimes share good content that everyone should see! but no I don't want to be silently surveilled. so if you don't want to say things about your thoughts, experiences and/or self, you can catch my content when someone else boosts it.
(that doesn't mean you can't start by lurking! I started by lurking. I think it's a fine way to begin. it just means, until you reveal something of yourself, we're not going to follow each other.)
We have a Patreon now! You can support us for a few bucks a month, or sign up for commissions here.
Otherness Archive has a big list of recent short films by transmasc creators, all watchable online. At least in principle - fancy website doesn’t seem to do well on mobile:
Hey I am still in the negative in my bank account.
I could really use help!. I am on the path to not needing this kind of help in a month.
I still need $70 to get to zero.

I’m so excited! I made Victorian-inspired pockets attached to a waistband (w velcro). Women’s pockets in the 1800s could accommodate everything from gin flasks, telescopes, to botanical maps and sewing accessories‼️
I made my pockets comically large to make a point, so, it fits everything I need - my phone, charging cable, wallet, comb, hand sanitizer, a tiny notebook, and my e-reader. If this sticks, it will be a game changer 👜🚫
Are there any good resources for air quotes intermediate toki pona learning? I feel very good on basics but wonder more about "translate these sentences in either direction" kinda things.
(I feel very comfy on my vocab, and ok on grammar and sitelen pona, but need more practice on more complicated things.)
I know, I know, there's a discord but weary emoji.

So, something amiss in the discussion regarding Reddit's API is they disabled the keys of archive sites. This means that if you ever have looked up info for how to do things, advice, solutions, etc and that information was stored on Reddit, then now a single company will own that knowledge forever and can take it away.
I wasn't joking yesterday when I said phpBB is a better alternative. It's easy to deploy, there are cheap (nearly free) hosting options if you want it as a SaaS, and you can work with archivers to preserve the discussions.
So, many records of trans community history during this important time will be lost forever because companies like Discord and Conde Nast have locked it all away.
