oh theyāre not even trying to hide it:
Understand that certain spaces are not meant for you and act accordingly. I donāt know if it was the alienation experienced in high school or what, but you are not owed anything in spaces built by and for specific groups. Especially when it is obvious that it is not the actual humanity of said group you are interested in, but rather in making sure you arenāt left out, again.
yall look at this shit ad*be is tryna pull now on ppl who have outdated software:
(note for context: iām all for piracy, but in this case my copy of CS6 was downloaded years ago when they were giving it away to students. i got it totally legally.)
so here is what NOT to do if youāre a loyal fan of adobe who has the cash to shell out for a newer and shittier version of the product you already paid for.
1) DONāT use your search bar to find and open the Run app
2) DONāT type in services.msc
3) DONāT find Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Services and right-click to get a dropdown menu, and donāt selectĀ āpropertiesā
4) if you happen to click properties, DONāT use the startup type dropdown to locate the option to disable the program. be sure you DONāT click apply to finalize that change.Ā
5) DO NOT do the same thing in order to also disable Adobe Genuine Software MonitorĀ
if you do all of these things, this WILL disable adobeās ability to monitor the software, and you will be forced to continue using the same older software that you already paid for instead of having to sign up for a newer, shittier version and pay more for it. so if you have lots of cash to spare and are cool with putting it the pockets of racketeering capitalists, definitely donāt do any of these things.Ā
however, you SHOULD reblog this to spread the word, as we certainly want to make sure lots of people know what NOT to do :)
"i was a transtrender" no you werent. you were just questioning your identity and then you decided that wasn't for you. that's a fucking healthy thing to do. fuck off lmao
Questioning is:
-healthy
-common
-normal
Questioning isn't:
-an excuse to be transphobic towards often young individuals

Tails are used throughout the animal kingdom to help with balance or to grip objects. Humans don't have such a thing, so scientists at the Keio University Graduate School of Media Design have built one to improve the agility of wearers.
There are of course animated robotic tails already manufactured, mostly for cosplay purposes, but the Arque wearable from Junichi Nabeshima, MHD Yamen Saraiji and Kouta Minamizawa is designed for more serious applications.
Inspired by the structure of the grippy, curly end of a seahorse, the prosthetic tail is made up of spring-loaded joints that form connected vertebrae, with pneumatic artificial muscles running through the cavity catering for movement.
The prototype is 71 cm (28 in) long and 11.5 cm (4.5 in) wide, and weighs 1.6 kg (3.5 lb), but the design allows for longer or shorter tails to be created. An air compressor is used to actuate the muscles, which results in movement in eight different directions. This means that itās not yet a stand-alone device, but could be made so in the future as technology improves.
With the Arque, a wearerās center of gravity could be altered by swinging the tail, in much the same way as a monkey jumping from one branch to another might use its tail to adjust balance mid-flight. A body tracker worn on the upper body of the user estimates the center of gravity and the tail is positioned accordingly. This could improve overall agility, or perhaps help the infirm to be more mobile.
Why does being in your early 20s feel so much like only having 5 years of your life left in which you need to achieve as much as possible? why do I feel like I have an approaching deadline for success?
Itās because weāve had nearly 30+ years of the āyoung geniusā narrative where those people gave actually gone on to shape the world we know today. Instead of treating these people as truely outliers, theyāve become expectation. People are always looking for āthe next Gates, the next Zuckerberg, the next personā whoās going to make an insane amount of money discovering an unregulated resource and shaping it to their whim and shaping the culture around that thing.
Then on top of it weāve had numerous generations who were able to have everything on their adult checklist: House, spouse, kids, job security, career, car by 25.
However, due to entering an unstable economy, uncertain job market, but with technological advancements that afford more flexibility, and creativity for their lives compared to their parents, Millenials are going through another growing phase right after their college years. As many canāt afford the adult check-list that their grandparents or parents did at their age. Millenials are taking their time because they literally cannot afford to buy a car, a house, find a spouse, have kids, while struggling to pay off massive debt while working for companies who either have no jobs or little loyalty to keep them for 30+ years like they kept their parents, when they can find someone āyounger, dumber, and cheaper to replace youā (<- my baby boomer boss said this proudly to me).
However instead of sympathizing with the generations they helped cripple, Baby Boomers and Gen Xers who are still in power, sneer at Millenials and Gen Z for being vapid, selfish, lazy, frivolous, bucking the system, etc., because they still hold us to these old expectation. These āāback when I was your age I had x,y, and z/I got want have because I worked hardāā statements that show a failure to understand that most *are* working hard with a really shitty situation. While choosing to ignore that they helped cripple us, Baby Boomers/Gen Xers, havent realized that times have changed, and therefore cultural expectations should as well.
However there is light at the end of the tunnel: As expectations have failed to get with the times, you can exploit this. Just get through your 20s, and once youāre in your 30s, Boomers and GenXers will naturally assume you have your shit together and will leave you alone. Seriously, the moment I turned 30 it was like a huge pressure to preform was off of me. Suddenly the decisions I made were considered āboldā and āliving my best lifeā when in my 20s, those same decisions would have been met with derision from the 40+ crowd.
I absolutely hated my 20s due to this mentally that I needed to accomplish something significant/hit all these arbitrary milestones that donāt make sense to me to stress over because they were frankly unattainable to me. Now in my 30s, itās a lot easier to breathe.
So chin up, take your selfies, make your shit posts, stay out late, make your mistakes, take years to find your dream job,do those āextraneousā hobbies, classes, whatever makes you happy.
You have so much time.
oh my god thank you so much?? this gave me much needed peace of mind right now. be my mentor lol
Going even further: my mom is an internationally renowned fiber artist and is asked by quilt and fiber guilds all over the world to come teach.Ā Ā My parents are travelling internationally on her dime at least twice a year now.Ā She has a book coming out, did a TV special and High Art Institutions like the Denver Art Museum are starting to court her for exhibits.
She must have been doing this forever right?
She started quilting at 50 and only started the body of work thatās got her in demand at 65.
Not only do you have a long time for you to work things out, if you find somethign you enjoy, youāve got AGES to develop it, if thatās something you want to do.
Statistically, most of the millenial generation is going to make it to 100.Ā You think lifeās over when youāve completed less than a third of it? Stay hydrated, eat well and hustle- youāre in it for the long haul and itās gonna be AWESOME.
