Let's make it happen, people.

One of the reasons I enjoy working with old computers from any era is that the further back you go the more different the concept of "what is a computer and how it works and used" changes from almost every possible aspect.

Being introduced to these different perspectives helps to open and expand the mind even if the concepts do not have a practical use in current day.

Gender (+?) 

Thinkin' about tryin' to find a suitably demonic gender-neutral name and being an agender incubus. Dunno, we'll see.

If ya got any good gender-neutral demon names, I'd love to hear 'em

it can take a lot of work, but representing black cats with accurate detail using ink can make for some amazing images which capture our midnight-colored fuzzy buddies.

i wanted to make a tutorial for how to draw black cats because they can be hard to get right so i hope this helps

Subtoot, cw discourse 

I just saw a toot that, like...things like that are why CWs exist.

No, not politics or oppression of minorities or anything like that. Farts.

Current tabs 

"What is my gender?"
Some manifesto or other
"BTRON Introduction"
"How to change battery in 2008 Yukon"

I feel like this says more about me than I want it too

violence/ill wishes 

Nazis should be in constant pain.

In case it needs to be said, I'm at my mom's, so expect a bunch of posts that are literally just "Cat[s]!" and a picture of one or two cats (the same two cats, of course) over the next few days

CW discourse 

Perhaps I'm a bit late to this, but, uh...well, I honestly don't have anything meaningful to add anyways. You can add CWs, but that won't stop me from clicking "Show more" before reading the CW and then reading the CW after the post. So, like, I could say "oh, CW your posts, people," but what does that really do for me? Nothing, because I'm going to ignore it anyways. If I don't, it's rare that a CW doesn't make me want to know what's behind it, so, yeah. My two cents.

I wish I could just retreat into my own little world, devoid of the need to ever talk to anyone ever again.
