#Introduction

Hi! I’m Ralph.
I’m easily amused and easily irritated.
I enjoy short walks to the fridge.
I work in #tech. (data analyst/computer fixer)
I go to the #gym often only because I love to eat.
Video games are my jam.
Reading books is a must.
Honestly, I really don’t enjoy bios. Haha πŸ«₯

Autocorrect changed "spilt" to "split" and now this milk is atomizing right in front of my eyes.

Before I say what I want to say let me preface it with this...

Clout doesn't mean shit here. It's what separates this place from other social media platforms. ❀️And I love it.❀️

WITH THAT SAID...

I KNOW it doesn't matter, but there's a side of me that is just REALLY HAPPY that I now have more followers here then on ANY social media platform I'm on. Especially after years of telling people how great this place is.

Thanks to all of you.

And this will be the last you ever hear about it from me.

#JohnMastodon adores fox hunting, and fully supports it's legality...

He hopes to one day have Hannity and Carlson mounted over his fireplace, and for the greatest prize, a rug made from Murdoch's wrinkled hide.

@LadyDragonfly
I can't even eat the things, but I buy 5 boxes every year, because yay Girl Scouts.
My co-workers eat them for me.

For anyone wondering how they should spend their money instead of buying a millionaire anti-trans bigot's new glitchy, antisemitic, pro-slavery video game, let me just remind you of two facts:

1. The Girl Scouts of America is openly accepting and inclusive of trans girls, and
2. It's cookie season.

Are you aware of the stats on recent elections? The last time a Republican won the vote count (as opposed to the electoral college) was 2004 - Bush the Lesser's second term. Before that is was 1988. Where would we be today if we hadn't had Trump? Or Either of the Bush presidencies?

Thinking that somehow your vote would mean less if it wasn't being overridden by the Electoral College just doesn't square with the facts.

-No, I hate white chocolate. I'm breaking up with you.

@AlwaysAutie

Unasked for and beside-the-point feedback, but:
"My brother said that i was pretentious for my room makeover, the Trans Flag walls"

Sort of a shit thing for your brother to say. You be you, however you want.

Death of a Trans Youth, Transphobic practices 

I know my audience here but in the aftermath of the murder of Brianna Ghey, and how the media are treating it,let's get a few things straight:

My name is Autumn Raine Pengelly.

Now is that my legal name? Unless you're a friend,none of your business

Should newspapers be looking through my medical records to find my deadname?

No.That's unethical as fuck yet that's what they've done to Brianna

Should people be remembered in line with their identity?

Yes,and yet the fucked up Transphobic system means if you don't have a Gender Recognition Certificate, you're getting misgendered ,even on your death certificate. And yet its made fucking impossible to get a GRC, because of all the fear mongering about Trans People.

A 16 year old Trans girl lost her fucking life and yet Gender Criticals are saying it's not a hate crime yet they've contributed to the rise in Anti-Trans sentiment and they really are unwilling to see themselves as the problem.

And as always, there's people misgendering Brianna i.e "that's a man in makeup"... you know personally I not only find that take horrific, but how can you honestly look at a Trans Person being happy, presenting how they want to ,and you decide "I don't like this,this is wrong"

Honestly fuck everything you stand for.

My brother said that i was pretentious for my room makeover, the Trans Flag walls....but no...i will never apologise for taking pride in my identity and i will certainly never apologise for taking off the mask of (Deadname) and choosing to continue life as Autumn.

I will protect my Trans Family with my life if i have to.

Once again,down with the Gender Critical Scum (because they are scum) #TransRightsAreHumanRights

I wrote a romantic poem for Valentine's Day! Let me know what you think:

Roses are red
NFTs are scummy
Here's a flower jpeg
Now give me all your money

#Watchers was the first @deankoontzofficial book I ever read 24 years ago. It was great to read it again after all these years! How can you go wrong with a story about the power of love, discovering your inner strength, and a highly intelligent dog!

exactly. the medical profession should be having daily hearings about this. while word is getting out about the very serious problem, it remains to be seen what will be done about it.
