werewolf thoughts
To myself I say: it is okay to love this.
It is okay to enjoy the majesty and playfulness inherent in the lupine expressions of others, and to feel little or none of it in myself.
I don’t know everything about what I am, but I do not feel majestic or wise or unselfconsciously playful. I feel like a monster that is content to be a monster. Content to love and protect its own, and to be mostly unseen by others.

These are all fine and wonderful things to be and do. I celebrate them and I learn and grow and am enriched by exposure to people who integrate these things into their lives. But I am not represented among these things.
I am a werewolf.
I am a creature that lives on a spectrum with a constrained axis. There is the side that looks like a human. There is the side that looks like a monstrous amalgam of human and wolf. I live on that spectrum and love every increment of it.
werewolf thoughts
I’m saying this as an affirmation to myself, not a correction of anyone’s presumed interpretation of my identity: I am not an anthro wolf. I am not a wolf therian. I am not a furry or a pup. I am not manifesting my trauma into a spirit form. I am not inhabiting a wolf body in my dreams.
Tandye spent half an hour playing songs from an 80s soft rock playlist, and telling me how the lyrics of each song could be about a werewolf

I'm having many interactions with Companies today. Here's what I've learned.
If I need to buy something I can rely on, I would much prefer to buy it from a company that treats me like I have a working concept of the past & an awareness of potential future needs.
Deepening my distaste for a brand of trail running gear to which I was loyal for years: today I learned that Salomon makes a line of shoes and boots specifically for The Troops 🤮 https://www.salomon.com/en-ca/forces

Every few years people re-learn the same lesson about Brendan Eich and it would probably be more efficient if they just remembered instead. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/22/business/media/ai-chatbots-right-wing-conservative.html

If you’re being rejected or even ghosted responding to job offers you’d be perfect for, it’s not you. Apparently there’s a new trend of companies putting up fake vacancies for appearance’s sake. A bizarre and unethical practice. https://www.wsj.com/articles/that-plum-job-listing-may-just-be-a-ghost-3aafc794

I'm recording an one-off episode of my video game podcast, 25c, with @ultranurd, who's had one for a bit, to see if he can convince me to order a @playdate. If you've got one, why did you buy a #Playdate? #videogames Subscribe to hear the episode later this week: https://25c.goodstuff.network/subscribe
I don't want to give their host network any more money because fuck em, but I do love this MBMBaM sticker...
