yeah

hot take being openly feminine and letting yourself be vulnerable around others takes more strength and courage than using masculinity as a shield ever will

also if your masculinity doesn’t have the strength to care for others or confront issues in a genuine and productive manner then it’s not actually masculinity, you’re just emotionally stunted and expecting women to carry your baggage

femininity is actually good and important and everyone should be allowed to practice as much or as little as they want

you apparently need permission from #microsoft to make third party #minecraft launchers now, after the migration from #mojang accounts

the whole stupid thing about how NFTs don't actually grant you any actual legal ownership rights reminds me of the xkcd comic about "tautology club"

"if you own this NFT it means that you will own this NFT"

Did you know Projekt Red obtained a trademark on "cyberpunk"?

And that they're now pursuing a claim against the itch.io designer of a TTRPG, Neon Nights?

Gonna say it again for the folks at the back: otherkin-bashing and furry-bashing are, and always have been, just queer-bashing with a blanket over it. Targeting esoteric outsiders in a community is always about ganging up on the queers by using perceived weirdness as a wedge.

As ever, strive to ask yourself a very simple question before you pop off: "is this actually hurting anybody?" If not, then keep your damn mouth closed.

Tux is the official Linux kernel mascot mainly because he embodies Linus: https://www.techrepublic.com/article/tux-a-brief-history-of-the-linux-mascot/

Xenia is an increasingly popular mascot mainly because she embodies the larger community's diversity & the transitions & transformations it enabled: http://xenia-linux-site.glitch.me/ #Linux30

so many people convinced they are "building the future" are actually just rehashing the present and the past. like every new supposedly planet-scale system that is ASCII only on some level, or the cryptocurrency community who's wildest dreams for a future society still involve money, hierarchy, wealth disparity, centralized control. this isn't progress.
