started working on some icons and adding them to my netizen home. it's slow progress but i'm happy to have finally added something new to this page
after many hours bashing my head against my webhost, breaking another website on it, netizen homes will finally have php hosting
THANK YOU SO MUCH! with your help we managed to beat BOTH of our goals, raising 300gbp for Mermaids UK AND beating Bowser! i'm going to go hibernate now
we are going live now, come cheer on us to beat Super Mario World and raise money for trans kids! #fundraiser #protecttranskids https://tiltify.com/@mavica/mavica-plays-super-mario-world-for-mermaids
i think this album is still good https://syniphas.bandcamp.com/album/the-space-adventures-of-general-mibi #bandcampfriday
really good article about alexithymia as a response to trauma rather than an inherent neurological trait
(cw mentions sui, abuse, CSA)

i really need stable income but since jobs aren't real anymore i'm taking any help i can get. i have a ko-fi you can send money to and there's even some pins left to buy there. i have a patreon where i don't have any rewards because i couldn't think of any and nobody has suggested any yet. you can also get a pixel portrait for a very reasonable price. or you can tell your employer about me
I co-wrote a cookbook for depressed people and other folks with zero spoons, only knives. It's not meant to be gourmet cooking so much as a survival guide for late stage capitalism. And you can get it for free!

tomorrow (friday, 4th)! we have bumped up our goal to another 100gbp and we will vanquish bowser in super mario world for once and for all! #fundraiser #protecttranskids https://tiltify.com/@mavica/mavica-plays-super-mario-world-for-mermaids
This was originally a response to someone else, but I'm gonna make it standalone:
The decision to federate with the BBC Fedi instance or not is of course up to individual admins. But trans people outside the UK may not be aware of how deeply dangerous this organisation is. (Especially if the name BBC makes them think of Doctor Who and other fun things.)
BBC journalists are famous for bait-and-switch journalism. They pretend to be writing an article or making a programme raising awareness of trans issues, and then turn it into an anti-trans hit piece, with any trans people quoted out of context to look like monsters.
My advice is "do not interact". Don't respond to any people at this domain striking up a conversation, and don't start shit with them either, tempting though it is.
On reflection, it's a good thing that the BBC has its own instance. We know where they are and who they are. Attempts to "run them off the Fediverse" would be very counterproductive.
Keep yourself safe, and take whatever actions you feel are appropriate.

we have met our goal tonight, thank you so much who donated! we beat Wendy's Castle #6, but unfortunately couldn't finish the game in one sitting. stay tuned for a follow-up livestream with a new fundraising goal and the conclusion of the game! https://tiltify.com/@mavica/mavica-plays-super-mario-world-for-mermaids

occasionally nsfw, always cw'd
If you've been blocked by me and don't know why, it's likely you or an account you have boosted posts nude men, cw'd or not, and I am committed to not seeing that under any circumstances
I am prone to bouts of grumpiness and bad moods due to chronic pain and fatigue
