there is no moral high ground in gritting your teeth and putting up with the things that worsen your mental health. there is no strength to be proven in having a thick skin. if you want to debate with people of opposing views, understand that that is voluntary *work*, not duty.

someone annoys you? gives you bad vibes? you just don't get along with them?

block. block liberally and without guilt. those people were not supposed to be in *your* personal internet in the first place. fight back

the internet would be a happier place if we had all just stayed in our own isolated interest silos

if i wanted a free for all chatroom i would've joined one instead of being coerced into it in the name of "social" "media"

i block often and i block early because it's the only curation left in the modern internet where everybody is piled up in the same commercial service rather than there being an ecossystem of websites i could just avoid going to instead

my level of trust in linux is that i have to wait for my laptop to fully shut down before i close it because otherwise i just know if i close it while it's trying to shut down then the sleep command will take over instead

nobody is hiring software engineers anymore

i hate that today to work in tech you have to work for a big corp doing horrible shit

i want to work with computers i don't want to help oppressive systems let me just get paid to build cool shit

so funny to me every time i realize i'm having none of the problems everybody else has with windows 10 is because i'm on windows 10 enterprise ltsc 🤫

if you wonder why i have outspoken and offensive self-harming outbursts publicly online start looking here

yes i've been to 4 different therapists already but thanks for telling me i need help

"what about family" you mean 2 siblings 10 years older than me who all they did was white label bully me and a mom who mostly made fun of the way i was as a kid and just told me to do better

i grew up autistic in a country and more importantly family who thinks autism is a slur

dear indie game creators/youtubers/anyone with a large enough following to have a self -sanctioned official community

for the love of god hire community moderation

especially if you do things like offer it as a patron reward *and you yourself are not even in the community*

society started to decline when we started calling doom clones "FPSes"
