So, real talk: why does GameCenter CX gets so little recognition as one of the most important transmission on games ever? Considering it's been going on for 20 years, I wonder almost no one has recognized how it predated so many current trends: retrogame mania, nostalgia, let's play, how we talk about retro games, etc

Turns out that Web Environment Integrity proposal everybody is getting angry about (imo very legitimately) was effectively already shipped by Apple in Safari last year: httptoolkit.com/blog/apple-pri

That means if Chromium ships it too, we could quickly move to 90%+ of browser traffic being attested. Not good!

of course i have adhd. there's like five of us sharing the same brain, do you really think any one of us gets to use it for any appreciable amount of contiguous time?

i don't want to imply i'm right about everything all of the time but when do things stop being so egregiously wrong that i stop feeling like i'm the one taking crazy pills

thinking about how a trans person would be doing themselves a disservice for believing that "robot" is any less a tangibly real thing that someone can be than "woman"

Found myself re-reading "Log off? Can't be done." by Sophie from Mars

I like how it talks about how we can be different persons online and offline, and how for her transitioning meant bringing her online self into the real world, Before that, logging off? Can't be done.

🚫 people who permanently deplete their curiosity and introspection while realizing they're trans, and make their self-righteousness and certainty their whole personality

✅ people who do the hard work of realizing they're trans and then wonder "what else is possible that I never considered before?"

"trans girls don't get into computers because they think they're cool they do it to run away from their dysphoria. if you think computers are cool you haven't used them for very long" oh wow what an enriching little world-weary observation. why don't you start a fuckin substack about it

this is my experience. i'm better than you because i {lived longer/had more jobs/earned more money/insert lame excuse here}. therefore i know this to be everyone's experience. don't just validate my trauma, take it on as your own, or you're a bad ally. - the mastodon mantra

can people who won't like or respect me please just leave me alone instead of discoursing why is it that they're in the right to say hurtful things towards me for however much they claim that wasn't their intention

like i keep hearing about "apologize and move on" and nigh on nobody does that to me. i need to be the wrong one in every regard. i'm sick and tired of that

bonus points when the flippant and hurtful comments get praise in the replies

if i had a penny for every time someone said something flippant and hurtful about me on mastodon and then doubled down on it when i said it was hurtful, i would be able to afford to not be here anymore
