i think nonbinary folks need to be louder and meaner about inclusion. we should refuse every effort to confine us to a "third" gender. we need to speak up about misguided "women & nonbinary" groupings, because nonbinary is not Girl Lite™. in fact we need to take the whole idea of Girl Lite™ and smash it with a hammer and put it in an acid bath. dissolve that garbage. nonbinary is fat, it's femme, it's masc, it's both, it's neither, it's an infinitely diverse category, and the sooner we nuke this basic-ass milquetoast image of "thin young white afab person" (which, lbr, people also wrongly interpret those folks as 'pretty much just girls who want to be special for some reason lol') the freer and better off we will all be

People see "nonbinary" and think "okay so how can I fit this in as a sort of variation within the binary?"

I wish I felt like I could make the people I love happy. Instead of just sad

[amygdalae]

Idk how much I've 'grown' as a 'person' over the years however I HAVE gradually turned into increasingly cartoonish parodies of myself which has been a blast actually

Apple propaganda notwithstanding, the reason tower PCs are big isn’t because they’re outdated. The reason tower PCs are so bulky is because they’re designed to be user serviceable. The case has lots of open space so your big, meaty hands can easily access all of the components, and everything is secured with friction-fit tabs and standard machine screws to minimise the need for specialised tools. A properly laid out tower PC is fully serviceable with a single Phillips-head screwdriver and no greater manual skill than your average Lego playset – heck, for some of the more modern case layouts you don’t even need the screwdriver, unless you’re performing major surgery like a full motherboard replacement.

Like, think about who benefits from convincing you that a fully modular computing device that can be serviced and repaired with your bare hands and minimal technical skill is unfashionable.

It can seem daunting at first but it really is worth it to learn to build desktop computers.

Like a new apple desktop costs like $1500-$2000 and you get like 16gb of ram or less, barely any USB or hdmi ports, barely any storage in general, ect. Additionally its incredibly hard if not impossible to get into it and switch anything out if something breaks or if you just want better part.

Meanwhile my desktop pc maybe cost $900 all together and it has an awesome graphics card, 16gb of ram standard and can be updated myself in seconds if I want to, space for like 5 hard drives (I currently have a 2 terabyte HDD one installed as well as a smaller SSD for the OS), 10 USB ports, multiple hdmi ports, old VGA ports, and tons of other features you would have to pay an arm and a leg to get in a new pre-made pc if you could find them at all.

I do know that not everyone is gonna have the time or the resources but there are places you can go for help and tons of guides and forums on the internet where people can answer your questions, and at least on pcpartpicker.com they even have example builds where they list everything you need to buy along with guides for how to put it together. I really think if you can its worth learning cuz now that I know more about computers it seems ridiculous what Apple and Microsoft will charge for a pre-built pc that sucks ass and, at least in Apple’s case, can’t be customized.

And that’s not to even mention what a rip off laptops are these days. My windows laptop is barely two years old and it already hardly runs and there’s literally nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile my fiance’s custom built desktop is like 4 years old and still runs like new. It’s true people do need laptops, but you shouldn’t have to rely on them. Learn to build and repair your stuff, its worth it. (And also in terms of tower PCs being big, if that’s really an issue for you there are multiple sizes of towers, you can just get a small one and there are parts that will fit.)

I really want to emphasize the whole Lego set analogy when it comes to putting together PCs, it’s really not an exaggeration. PC parts and form factors are miraculously and remarkably standardized these days, and there’s lots of helpful resources online to help you pick out parts, if it feels daunting! The site I usually recommend is pcpartpicker.com. It’ll even tell you if you’ve selected incompatible parts!

Some of the smaller components take a little bit more dexterity, but magnetized screwdrivers and tweezers are cheap and go a long way. But it really is just a matter of plugging things into the right ports

homestuck fans or former fans talk about toby fox in such a different way to utdr fans who never read hs and its hilarious to me

[joeyclaire]

utdr fans are like “toby fox is so inspiring and his games changed my life i rly look up to him” but hs fans are like that’s my friend radiation we went to homestuck together

[hot-thiggity-thighs]

[big-wicke-energy]

Frankly I don’t care if Undertale fans hate Homestuck, that’s understandable

But it’s kind of insulting how many people want to ignore if not outright expunge a huge portion of Toby Fox’s discography from the discussion of his work just because they feel awkward mentioning Homestuck. Or worse they reduce like a hundred tracks he contributed down to just The Baby is You and that one version of Megalovania

Like I’m sure from an outside perspective being part of some webcomic’s “music team” is the least relevant part of a world famous game developer’s resume, but that’s to completely ignore how much Undertale/Deltarune owes to Homestuck and moreover how much Homestuck owes to Toby Fox

Maybe there's no point in trying to do anything anymore. Maybe I should just give up

I need to finish this fic but I can't stop crying. Im so angry at myself, I hate myself so much
