the next day after exerting myself too much because i felt good for once

[two-wizards-in-a-trench-coat]

baby sis (5) learned that I'm transgender this holiday season because she found pictures of kid me in dresses and questioned my mother about it who said "well [Wiz] used to be a girl but now he's a boy" and it sounded a bit like it Happened to me which is funny. anyways It means that baby sis has been doing this incredible bit where anytime she draws someone she asks them if they want to be drawn as "a boy or a girl"

[two-wizards-in-a-trench-coat]

you would think that makes her woke but no because she keeps drawing my regular brother as a girl to piss him off. chat she's forcefemming him

[ot3]

i dont know that sounds pretty woke to me. i think this kid is going places

[two-wizards-in-a-trench-coat]

I mostly call him that because for a long time he was the irregular brother for being autistic but ever since I got my diagnosis he's lost his special boy privileges

LISTEN TO ME. THIS IS COMPLETELY TRUE. THEY WORK EXACTLY THE SAME. GET THOSE INSTEAD.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

I can't remember where I first heard it, but here's a joke that's lived rent free in my head for years:

two friends, a Jew and a Christian, are talking about holiday customs.

the Jew says "on Rosh Hashanah, it's traditional to blow the shofar 30 times"

the Christian looks at him awkwardly and says "wow. all we give our chauffeur on Christmas is a bottle of wine."

[dragon-in-a-fez]

shana tova everyone

[dragon-in-a-fez]

really enjoying the fact that people have said "this too is Torah", "y'all need Jesus", and "by Allah you people are dogs" in the notes. I hit the Abrahamic tumblr trifecta

[skodasforge]

“It’s photoshopped” honestly in the age of AI that has a homey sort of nostalgia to it. Remember when people used to put effort into faking things?

A brief moment of rationality from the bird place.

[liliacfaerie]

your life should not be a museum

Hey horny writer lil heads up for you guys, the “ai” google is forcing into docs to “scan for grammar errors” has been proved to also be scanning for spicy content and multiple ppl have already got notifs saying like “we’re sorry, there was a system error and some of your work was lost” and it was only the horny stuff so uh

Pleeeeease back up your files !!!! Don’t lose your horny to a robot, that’s Doc’s job, not Docs’…

[abyssalz0ne-nsfmc]

hello horny writers of tumblr this is your shine to try out ellipsus instead of google docs. it's completely free and the team behind it have a very strong stance against the use of AI in creative spaces. I haven't been using it long but it works beautifully.

[zhenya-grey]

i just signed up for this and sign up is instant, also the layout is nice. i have yet to try it on my phone, but seems to be really good on the computer. :3

can confirm it does indeed NOT censor anything or allow AI.

[elodieunderglass]

Really very fond of @ellipsus-writes !

[cipheramnesia]

I'm going to me mention Lite Writer again for the phone as a free writing app which, to date, does not use AI assit, permits offline storage of all your files, and allows you to save as PDF or text files. Meaning your writing is always available to easily back up in one of the most universally accessable file formats.

As the name implies, it is lightweight, but you can create two level deep organization, book -> folder -> chapter. These are saved as folders and subfolders and text documents, which means the organization of your work can also be trasfered between devices in a nearly universal manner. It has a paid version, which I don't use, and the free version also has a separate notepad function (which I don't use but it looks helpful).

I'll mention here again that one reason I bring it up this often is because I write on my phone, and of all the android compatible writing programs or cloud writing pages I was able to find that were compatible with my device, Lite Write was the one that met my specific needs which were: accessible offline, easy file creation/organization, easy file export, no AI that I could discern, saves in editable and widely compatible format(s). On a desktop or laptop, I can open LibraOffice for all that, but it was infomercial character actor levels of maddening trying to find what I thought should be the most basic elements of a word processor for android. Anyway, I've written like 200k worth of words on it so far and I love it to death.

ngl I thought the puzzle piece as an autistic symbol meant like. I am a vital puzzle piece to your society. humans would never have invented half the things they did without us. you're telling me it means I'm missing something?? buddy. listen. listen to me reeeeaal closely. no human has all the pieces to humanity. no one. no one has all the features enables no one has all the strengths weaknesses or quirks. no one has a whole puzzle. we make the freaking complete picture together. that's the freaking point.

[some-teeth-in-a-trench-coat]

Neurotypicals are encouraged to reblog this btw but if you think I'm broken for being autistic I'll break your bones

[some-teeth-in-a-trench-coat]

Bringing this back celebrate autism and the vital diversity of humanity with me by burning Autism Speaks to the ground

i tried to make a venn diagram but my migraine is ironically too bad for me to have the brain power to take the time to fix the proportions and then i locked one of the text layers and got pissed off and gave up. but i kind of like it all fucked up like this

[storywonker]

They recorded tinnitus? It's a physical thing?????

[storywonker]

Lola De La Mata speaks to Patrick Clarke about how her experience with severe tinnitus and vertigo fed into her new album Oceans On Azimuth

Source

[bisexualbaker]

Transcript:

The most mind-blowing moment, not only for De La Mata but the scientists too, came when they managed to actually record the sounds that she heard in her ears – which now appear as ‘Left Ear’ and ‘Right Ear’ which begin sides A and B on the album – and in doing so opened up questions about the nature of tinnitus itself. “The NHS definition is that it’s a phantom sound that your brain is creating, that it isn’t something ‘real’, so you should try to ignore it.” By having De La Mata place her ear into an anechoic chamber, with an ultra-sensitive microphone perched in her ear canal, they were able to provide significant evidence to the contrary. “After the first recording of it, it was ‘There’s no way, this isn’t possible.’” They tried again with her breath held, and again with her tensing her ears, and again with other members of staff, but each time it became apparent that yes, the noises De La Mata hears are seemingly something physical.
