education hot take, subtooting high school teachers
plagiarism is when you knowingly lie and explicitly claim that someone else's work is yours. failing to properly identify a quote _in an assignment that specifically required quotes_ is really just fucking not that

big one: speech classes
no. giving a speech containing quotes and failing to identify their sources, especially if the sources are listed in the written materials provided to the teacher, is not plagiarism. it's careless, and it's fair for it to result in a poor grade, but it's not something you put on a student's permanent fucking record. jesus christ

trying and failing to cite sources correctly, or not individually citing quotes that are still presented as quotes, is extremely not the same thing as plagiarism
quit threatening kids with extremely serious accusations just because they didn't understand MLA format on the first try

Autism humour 1
'You don't look autistic?'
'With your powerful allistic facial expression reading powers, hopefully you can tell I look exasperated'

I appreciate that Tusky allows me to automate clicking "show more" on content warnings for stuff I probably didn't actually want to see. I don't, because I at least want the chance to realize a second too late what I'm opening, but I appreciate it nonetheless
poorly thought out infohazard ment
It boggles my mind that people believe in roko's basilisk and still have the nerve to not just call themselves rational, but insist than anyone who disagrees with the basilisk is irrational

meds update 2
I'm almost done with Doxycycline. I finish my course saturday evening. I've gotten to the point where I can take it with just water on an empty stomach without throwing up. Some occasional nausea still, but it's nowhere near as bad as it was. I can basically function normally on it.

Holy fuck. I have done, like, 2 major things today (meeting this morning not included) and I am already exhausted. I have literally washed dishes and done ONE homework problem. What the utter fuck?!
Seriously, though, my classmates were talking about this being a 2 page problems, and I did it in half a page by just going "Yeah, protons and neutrons have *basically* the same mass and binding energy doesn't *really* matter here, so, you know, it's fine." Mind you, what I got for nuclear density was on the order of what's in the book, so it's correct enough
I legitimately just wrote "Assume a spherical orange of radius 3.75 cm" on a physics homework. I think I'm starting to get the hang of this whole "physics" thing
I suppose it's kinda like cheese or butter. How did we discover those. Like, who first had milk go bad, but discover that they could make something else out of it? It's weird. Very weird.
Things I don't understand: snack mix. Don't get me wrong, it's good and all, but who went, "Yes. Let's take a bunch of small pretzels and bits of bread, make them crispy and coat them in seasoning!"? Like, it just...doesn't seem like a particularly obvious idea. Kinda like croutons. "Ah, my bread is stale. Oh well, I'll coat it in seasoning and put it in my salad!" Like, how do you decide this is a good idea?
I met with the LGBT people this morning. It was short. But, everything went well enough. I'm supposed to be getting information on a gender clinic nearby that can get me free HRT and, at some point, my email and stuff will get changed to my chosen name! Woo!
I drew a picture! So, a few years ago, I drew the first picture. It's...uh...not great. No, she's not supposed to look that horribly underweight, I just didn't know how to draw. Well, I did, but, for some stupid reason, I thought that looked fine. But, it doesn't. So, I gave her another chance. Now, she looks in far better condition, and she's back for revenge.
In case you're interested, I wrote some story with it over on DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/awesomeenderfox/art/It-s-my-turn-829369479

Bad actors who complain, "your rhetoric will alienate [oppressor group] allies from your movement!" implicitly threaten you to coddle them lest they revoke their allyship. Allyship should never be conditional to feeling comfortable with radical marginalized speech and action. Allyship is a no-strings-attached recognition and acknowledgement of a marginalized group's humanity and right to liberation. Be wary of those in our spaces that propagate such rhetoric of "conditional allyship." Over.

Uncharitable, cancer mention
I'm kind of rolling my eyes at all the false charity of people wishing Rush Limbaugh the best medical care in his fight against lung cancer.
But you know what, fuck that. He's directly responsible for enabling the suffering and deaths of countless people, including those with the very same disease. He can fucking stew in it. It's not possible for him to suffer as much as he'd earned so he's getting off easy as it is.

oh my god, apparently the license for the original implementation of JSON states
