i think it's fine actually when a c-suite big wig calls the company a "family" because like a family i owe them no fealty and would leave embarassed if i ever saw one of them at a room party

i meant to google "origins of the world according to norse mythology" and instead googled "origins of the world according to horse mythology" and tbh i think that's a much more interesting question

one of my favorite hats to wear around bird nerds is this one i found at a gas station which says "utah" above a photo of a western gull, which is native to the pacific coast and has no range in or near utah

there's so much irony in the fact that the largest block of transphobic ghouls have claims to spiritual traditions, while the worldview they impose is physicalist. "what is a woman? why, it's atoms arranged womanwise!"

the ego grasping at form is what i see as the rotten heart of gender essentialism. each person experiences the Self as the existence-awareness in which the body arises. but they only experience others as phenomenal bodies. bodies with no experiencable internality.

webster @quacking.online · Sep 6

the whole point of being a furry for me has always been, consciously or otherwise, about challenging the boundaries of what it means to be embodied. if a creation with a name and form is manifested and animated by your will, how is it any different from your body? why shouldn't that be "you"?

webster @quacking.online · Sep 6

when i say "agender" (and to some degree "asexual") what i mean is i would get the most gender affirmation from having no attachment to a body whatsoever. is there hrt for that?

like i think that if he came back all it would take for everyone to get over him would be seeing him wearing jeans and squeezing avocados at the grocery store

i think most jesus zealots would be shaken by minutia if they actually met the dude. even if he dispensed all the same wisdom the modern western christian imprints on him, they'd be utterly shocked if he farted or groaned when he stood up or had a little too nasaly of a speaking voice.

nah, the space opera in star control 2 is unparalleled. the bit that reminded me of SC2 was the exploration and resource extraction. it IS extremely sandboxy. but the travel mechanics are really cool, imo.

the one downside of wasting time on the clock is that being a "time thief" makes you sound like the protagonist of a YA novel from 2006

webster @quacking.online · Aug 29

it's a lot of fun imo
