politics, cancer, personal
Look, John McCain was a war hero and a shitty senator. But I would never wish cancer on him, or anyone.
Especially since I lost a close family member to cancer two years ago.
It's the kind of thing you really start to reconsider saying when cancer takes away someone you really care about. Keep that in mind.
gender, brain issues.
When I talked to the doctor earlier this week, I had suggested looking into a psychologist.
I was given a list of potential places, and I should really start making calls and get that ball rolling, if only for my own well-being.
I don't want it to like, stop the gender thing, but rather get me to understand it and not have it linger in my mind so much.
gender
I'm in a really tough spot at the moment.
There's a point where I'm getting that urge to be like "I wanna wear a dress, wear a skirt, wear things clearly not masculine or boring."
This is something I've had occasional urges about for many many years, but it's amplified considerably over the past year.
I think it's starting to get to a point where it's affecting things around me and the things I enjoy doing.
But I can't just *ignore* this.
internet edgelords and crappy gotchas
Nothing is more head-scratching than idiots going "AHA I FOUND OLD TWEETS YOU SAID LIKE 7 YEARS AGO THAT HAVE YOU SAYING BAD THINGS, AREN'T YOU A HYPOCRITE"
Do they not realize people usually *grow* and improve as time goes on?
Now if they were still saying that stuff today, you'd have an argument. But if they renounced that stuff, isn't that worth a pass?
birdsite, gamers
I hate quoting a dipshit PUA for that, but it's the only appropriate way to describe the whole YouTube "Anti-SJW gamer" fandom at this point.

"It's like a game! You guys are writing the same thing!"
Also proof I'm a dork:
I put the full date in the tags whenever available.
Thus I'm experiencing (some of) 1967 as I speak, starting with The Rolling Stones' Ruby Tuesday, to Jimi Hendrix's debut, a bunch of Beatles, and ending with The Who's I Can See For Miles.
It's really interesting when you listen to music this way.
Going through my music collection chronologically.
It started with nothing but Elvis and Miles Davis since that's all of my '50s stuff.
Now I'm in the psychedelic rock phase and stuff like Sgt. Pepper.
It's interesting because it gives me a decent snapshot of how music evolved even within a decade, from teenybopper pop to the later hard rock/heavy metal that would start to bloom in the early '70s.
Davis' Law is basically "If you mention a brand on Twitter without directly @ing at them, expect a response even if you didn't want it."

social media, birdsite, transphobia
Obligatory "don't read the replies" to people rightfully calling it out.
Like I saw a distorted gif of Peter Griffin going "who the hell cares" in the replies. It's like they don't have an argument.
