dehumanization as horror is great and all but what about humanization as horror. Being forced into a role that was not made for you. Being forced to fulfill expectations that you can never achieve. Being made to exist in a society that so cruelly expects you to act in a way that is against your nature.

Felt like these tags belonged too well to be left alone @asteroidtroglodyte
old people are always like “you guys want everything to be easy” yessss queen exactly……
ok my fault. let’s all suffer needlessly together instead of wanting better for each other ❤️ yayyy 🥰
yes we need help and to help eachother , but life should not be entirely frictionless. a life completely sheltered from struggle of any sort is what drives people mad ,either from boredom or when they do eventually struggle.
we do need practice with struggle because it does make people stronger ( I mean not always but like something about separating wheat from chaff)
Your middle aged Aunts lead the first online charge for yaoi and your great Aunts lead the first conventions for fandoms and wrote yaoi fanfiction on paper. (It just wasn’t called that at the time)
Sometimes they didn’t even show anyone. Sometimes they showed a few fellow fans.
You simply live now, following in their footsteps path they laid.
On a related note, passed my way by a friend:
Look at that date. Look at that date and then look around you.
okay I've been trying to use windows 11 for about an hour now and this is the closest I've ever come to seriously considering Linux when I buy a new personal laptop.
Windows lives on a Tic-Toc schedule, always has. Win95 was terrible, 98 was good, 2000 was bad, XP was good, Vista was bad, 7 was good, 8 was terrible, 10 was good. Now we are at 11. It is excrimentally bad, and for anyone who has worked with Windows for a long time this is not a surprise. It is terrible, and with each patch and 11.x update it will get worse. Then in a few years they will release Windows 12 and it will be tolerably good. That’s how Windows works. That’s how Microsoft works. So unless you want to work with an excerably bad OS for the next 5 to 7 years before 12 comes out, I would say yes, try Linux.
Microsoft doesn't intentionally release "good" and "bad" versions of Windows alternatingly, that's just a stereotype people have applied to the past few versions of Windows because it applies well enough. Every other version is usually badly received because they're the ones where Microsoft changes things around the most, and the subsequent versions are basically just refinements on the previous.
Now that they're pushing an AI-based "agentic OS" with Windows 11, that's a design ethos that's going to stay and Windows 12 is going to be basically the same but with a slicker UI. Your computer use will continue to be strictly linked to Microsoft accounts and services, they will continue to violate your privacy, and they will continue to take away your control of your own computer.
Microsoft has lost our trust. Don't support them. Switch to Linux.
I don't think people realize how absolutely wild Linux is.
Here we have an Operating system that now has 100 different varieties, all of them with their own little features and markets that are also so customizable that you can literally choose what desktop environment you want. Alongside that it is the OS of choice for Supercomputers, most Web servers, and even tiny little toy computers that hackers and gadget makers use. It is the Operating System running on most of the world's smartphones. That's right. Android is a version of Linux.
It can run on literally anything up to and including a potato, and as of now desktop Linux Distros like Ubuntu and Mint are so easily to use and user friendly that technological novices can use them. This Operating system has had App stores since the 90s.
Oh, and what's more, this operating system was fuckin' built by volunteers and users alongside businesses and universities because they needed an all purpose operating system so they built one themselves and released it for free. If you know how to, you can add to this.
Oh, and it's founder wasn't some corporate hotshot. It's an introverted Swedish-speaking Finn who, while he was a student, started making his own Operating system after playing around with someone else's OS. He was going to call it Freax but the guy he got server space from named the folder of his project "Linux" (Linus Unix) and the name stuck. He operates this project from his Home office which is painted in a colour used in asylums. Man's so fucking introverted he developed the world's biggest code repo, Git, so he didn't have to deal with drama and email.
Steam adopted it meaning a LOT of games now natively run in Linux and what cannot be run natively can be adapted to run. It's now the OS used on their consoles (Steam Deck) and to this, a lot of people have found games run better on Linux than on Windows. More computers run Steam on Linux than MacOS.
On top of that the Arctic World Archive (basically the Svalbard Seed bank, but for Data) have this OS saved in their databanks so if the world ends the survivors are going to be using it.
On top of this? It's Free! No "Freemium" bullshit, no "pay to unlock" shit, no licenses, no tracking or data harvesting. If you have an old laptop that still works and a 16GB USB drive, you can go get it and install it and have a functioning computer because it uses less fucking resources than Windows. Got a shit PC? Linux Mint XFCE or Xubuntu is lightweight af. This shit is stopping eWaste.
What's more, it doesn't even scrimp on style. KDE, XFCE, Gnome, Cinnamon, all look pretty and are functional and there's even a load of people who try make their installs look pretty AF as a hobby called "ricing" with a subreddit (/r/unixporn) dedicated to it.
Linux is fucking wild.
i bet it feels so good for a computer to delete windows off of it and replace it with linux. like rescuing it from a shitty living situation and letting it finally feel safe and loved
Installing apps on…
macOS: I’m just a single isolated package! Just drag and drop me to your “Applications” folder to install me. Don’t want me anymore? Right click my icon and put me in the trash. All gone!
Linux: Want me installed? Ask the package manager. Want me uninstalled? Package manager. Got an AppImage? Just click it to run, then trash it to uninstall. Easy peasy.
Windows: I am going to infect your file directories and registry like the roots of a bamboo tree. You will never fully remove me. Go ahead and try the “uninstall” button in settings. I fucking dare you. You can remove the executable, but you will never fully remove me. I am infinite, and I will outlive Microsoft Inc. ten fold. Fuck you.
tbh the current default state of operating systems & internet browsers looks fucking indistinguishable from when i gave the family desktop one billion viruses downloading Free Neopoints Hack in 2005
not to be a millennial but back in my day getting blasted in the eyeballs by ads on your desktop the instant you turn on your computer used to mean something was extremely wrong
Linux. As long as you can stomach learning an new operating system and potentially abandoning some of your industry programs, thats probably the best thing you can do on the OS side. on the browser side, there's an upcoming one called Ladybird that im following the development of. its definitely not a daily yet, but the project has a very good direction as well as a bevy of sponsors to keep development going (they have not shaken on their ideals.)
I have a lot more resources to recommend regarding switching to linux, but that can get long winded.
my take on my favourite catholic reindeer: scp-166
thats right, i drew scp art - im cooked chat im cooked
my girl my girl my girl MY girl
i think im gonna switch to linux guys..
