Okay, I'm _pretty_ sure that migration worked! Looks like past toots don't carry over tho, so #introduction time again!
I'm Mike! Used to do Space Stuff, but now I do #devops stuff at $employer to pay for cardboard boxes for my cats. The big dream is to open up a combination bakery / makerspace and never have to look at a computer again.
Someone asked me once that as a straight dude, am I bothered about how high-profile LGBTQ+ initiatives become in mainstream culture.
I think they were surprised when I said no because their advocating for themselves gives us space for us all to be fuller versions of ourselves. If anything, we should be supporting them more vocally.
Sure, we may have differences of opinion about who we find attractive but that's always going to be the case. I like thick women with glasses and smart mouths. Ha, everybody's not into that. And that's fine.
I think there's a lot more space and weirdness for straight folks to exist in that we have no need to be threatened by people that arent'.
At the end of the day, I feel like we all should be on the same page in expanding what it is to be human because in some way shape, or form we are all suffering the effects of having our humanity crushed into boxes that aren't meant to contain it.
In my estimation, we're all on the same side.
@coffeegang As long as there is fascism and capitalist paraphernalia on Twitter -- we will continue to have a free and open door policy here on Mastodon.
We are open to anyone who follows our rules.
Spending the day knocking out random household chores and trying to learn #CueLang
So now:
- the disco ball planter is hanging in my partner's zoom background
- I'm slightly less baffled about how to arrange some code
- our adirondack chairs have fresh varnish
It's a Good Brain Day.
Beautiful deck weather in #baltimore tonight
Happy #priDEMONth, fellow demons
#accessibility post i found on tumblr:
some of you may've heard about that fancy "bionic reading" typefont thats supposed to be easier for #neurodivergent people to read (if you're unfamiliar, it bolds the first few letters of each word to make it easier to follow)
well guess what, its locked behind a $500 a month API to write in because fuck you!
introducing, Not Bionic Reading! it is literally just the bionic reading typefont but for free. god bless neocities
