@LambdaCalculus fuck i used this so much during the brief period when my only computer was a 486 laptop. i had it online on ethernet and could still browse the then-modern web with opera 3 and chat on mirc

@The4thCircle the gripe here is that i can hardly get people to care about the things i make let alone care beyond that and every time i have tried to have "my own voice" i'm scolded and told i'm doing it wrong, or being abusive and aggressive, or worse

i think at this point i'm just doomed to never be respected

@The4thCircle i get what you mean but also i'm not going to change my voice and the people making these mistakes the most aren't even on the fediverse so they just know me by a thing i made that went viral and are posting about it elsewhere

there was a post here. i wrote it and deleted it three times. this is all that's left

this is not really a subtoot of anyone in particular because it keeps happening so much. like people assuming i'm either a guy or non-binary because i use it/its as my secondary pronouns (the primary are byte/byteself, which nobody ever uses)

what exactly does it take for people to understand that my name is properly spelled all lowercase. because whatever it is i'm not doing it enough. capital m Mavica is the Sony camera, not me

@jk isn't firefox like mostly funded by google these days. i don't think it's even a secret anymore

subtoot 

god forbid i point out you're different than me clearly i'm trying to attack you. we should all be striving for homogeneity

is there some list of offline-only text-to-speech tools one could peruse if they were looking for a voice for themself :boost_ok:

maybe i crave being abused because at least when people are yelling at me i'm not being ignored

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social sorry we don't see the world your way. guess you don't go through the same feelings we do. who woulda thought

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social beats living in this fucking vacuum

actaully the video title would be "They LIED To Us......" and the turbografx thing would be somewhere in the thumbnail meaning you wouldn't even know what the video is about unless you could see that image
