@oldladyplays@wargamers.social This is so inspirational and beautiful! I love that you are meeting yourself more and more every day 🥰
I’ve had a few “so THIS is who i am!” moments, but they’ve always been from me sitting with my own head, body, and desires. I love how hot i can get with my thoughts alone.
Ngl though, I’d probably cry if i find someone masc who could/would do that party trick on me. That seems inconceivable.

I have purchased a modern 24-pin dot matrix printer and have absolutely zero regrets. Truly great technology.
The Epson LQ-590II has a heat sink and fan on the print head, which my DEC LA-50 did not, in the ‘80s. Advancement!

@eleanor@chaosfem.tw @CordiallyChloe@tech.lgbt @oldladyplays@wargamers.social i also want to believe that cis people will stand up for us … but i doubt it will happen in any significant way. The STEM fields are very project-focused, and if losing a person or two means success, they’ll do it. They’ve always done that for the bottom line, and now that it includes an ethical angle won’t make a big dent.
It was capitalism all along, who knew? 🤦🏻♀️🙄

@oldladyplays@wargamers.social i used to work for a university that did spacecraft development using NASA grants. I left in October because the university was bowing to state fascism.
Now they are crushing us via fiat again. I’m out of the system, but my heart is still back there, and their hatred is killing me. I want to be stronger, but they hurt me over and over again.
I know that my tears are what they want. But crying is the only way i can deal with this pain.
I wish i had someone to go to for solace from this, but I’m the elder in my tiny community. 😞😭

You want to be at pride as a corpo or police? Quit your job, and do the fucking work of making yourself and the world better. It’s your only way through.

A question for those of you who have experience with autistic or neurodiverse children: are puzzles with small pieces a good idea? I got this gachopon puzzle as a freebie from a convention, and I’m wondering if it’s an appropriate gift for the child of my upstairs neighbor. He’s maybe six?
I can just ask them, oc, but it got me thinking. #autism

@mekkaokereke @davidnjoku it’s an incredibly jingoistic industry. The “USA! USA!” pride can always be seen under the surface.
On top of that, Congress making it illegal to have bilateral-only cooperation between the US and China makes collaboration and celebration thereof almost impossible.
Icing on the shit cake: ridiculous levels of competition between academics for publication space, multiplied by racism … well there you have it.
In our lifetimes, access to space will always be a fight. No one involved is interested in having it any other way, grand gestures of internationalism notwithstanding.
