It’s that time of year when online losers pretend that they have any say on who gets to go to pride like it’s not a public parade available to literally anyone who wants to walk up. “Don’t bring your straight boyfriend—“ baby people are bringing their straight grandmothers to pride. Over enthusiastic straight ally Hetero Jessica is gonna bring her hubby and the kids and they’re gonna make an afternoon of it. And who gives a fuck fr 🙈

oh I know how to make a poll's results look like the letter E watch this
what is the rightmost digit of the number of responses this poll has right now? (it should be visible before you vote.)
0, 1, or 2
3
4 or 5
6
7, 8, or 9
Confused by the numbering choices here
that's the order numbers go in.
but you have 12 options
this poll has five (5) options actually

i'm really glad 6 isnt afraid of 7 anymore and you could all stand to be more supportive of their relationship
I don't care what newer fans are saying or if they need to get back to the source material but. 7 literally ate 9. It's so disgusting how everyone is willing to throw 9 under the bus for their toxic yaoi meme ship
What the fuck
It's a yellow bittern! They are very creechur.

Nature is incredible, you can really see just at a quick glance how these evolved to speak together in rhyming riddles while performing a spooky dance, laughing at you because they're The Wee Creatures Three and you will Never Get Their Key.

A fun thing about computer skills is that as you have more of them, the number of computer problems you have doesn't go down.
This is because as a beginner, you have troubles because you don't have much knowledge.
But then you learn a bunch more, and now you've got the skills to do a bunch of stuff, so you run into a lot of problems because you're doing so much stuff, and only an expert could figure them out.
But then one day you are an expert. You can reprogram everything and build new hardware! You understand all the various layers of tech!
And your problems are now legendary. You are trying things no one else has ever tried. You Google them and get zero results, or at best one forum post from 1997. You discover bugs in the silicon of obscure processors. You crash your compiler. Your software gets cited in academic papers because you accidently discovered a new mathematical proof while trying to remote control a vibrator. You can't use the wifi on your main laptop because you wrote your own uefi implementation and Intel has a bug in their firmware that they haven't fixed yet, no matter how much you email them. You post on mastodon about your technical issue and the most common replies are names of psychiatric medications. You have written your own OS but there arent many programs for it because no one else understands how they have to write apps as a small federation of coroutine-based microservices. You ask for help and get Pagliacci'd, constantly.
But this is the natural of computer skills: as you know more, your problems don't get easier, they just get weirder.
you know you've made it when you're googling problems and ending up with 0-9 results
#you don't actually have to be good to have these problems#you just have to be obsessed with a micro-issue that no one else cares about
Certified skydiving instructors know way more about safely falling from planes than I do, and are way more likely to die that way.

A character trait/dynamic that I'm endlessly compelled by is someone dealing with (or, like, failing to) being the child of people who were too busy being good people to have the time and attention to be good parents. This can be anywhere from 'was a public defender who gave a shit working 60 hour weeks with basically no vacations' to 'left their family behind to join the revolution/war effort and is now a universally beloved martyr-hero who saved/remade the world with their final breath' on the groundedness spectrum. The important thing is a viscerally felt but confused and ugly mess of longing, resentment, and guilt about feeling the resentment.
The mile-long rainbow flag being carried down First Avenue in New York City.
“For New York City Pride in 1994 (Stonewall 25), Baker created a mile-long rainbow flag that was carried down First Avenue in Manhattan. During the parade, Baker used scissors to cut segments from the flag to be rushed to Fifth Avenue for an impromptu protest march in front of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the headquarters of New York City’s anti-gay Catholic archdiocese.

hi we are really small fish we are swim in a single file
lie to me
[Image IDs: the final scene of Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2x07, “Lie to Me,” with dialogue captions. Buffy and Giles are walking in the cemetery.
Buffy: Does it ever get easy?
Giles: You mean life?
Buffy: Yeah.
Buffy: Does it get easy?
Giles: What do you want me to say?
Buffy: Lie to me.
Giles: Yes, it’s terribly simple.
The good guys are always stalwart and true,
the bad guys are easily distinguished
by their point horns or black hats,
uh, we always defeat them and save the day,
and everybody lives happily ever after.
no one ever dies,
The final image is the Executive Producer credit.
Buffy: Liar.
(The penultimate image “no one ever dies,” is out-of-order; it should instead be the antepenultimate image, before “and everybody lives happily ever after.”)
