@mothtonoth in the subject of early gender neutral (neo)pronouns i adore how early spivak pronouns are (named after the mathematician who popularized them in 1983 but there's records of the same set being used much earlier)

@mothtonoth i don't expect every single person to be my friend or even like me, but like

when is it my turn to be happy

@mothtonoth personally i've been pushed out from most established communities i've tried to join, either because i straight up got sexual harassment or because of petty disagreements someone decided to make personal

and then i'm supposed to be ok hearing about all these lovely communities that are out there from the outside looking in

and when i try to start my own to try to heal from all that, at best they get ignored and at worst i get campaigns from people telling others to avoid them

i'm sure i'm not the only victim of this, and i try to combat it from the other way as well

but it's so funny to me how people are much, much quicker to dish out negative comments, even abuse, than to praise something you made they've enjoyed

i rarely ever get positive feedback for my websites and tools. every single of the few people who's personally come forward to thank me about something i've made is shocked to learn how rare their messages are and admit they almost didn't send it
