OPENING OF COLD HARBOR EXTREMELY RELATABLE AS A PLURAL SYSTEM LOL

Working in the industry and if you're enjoying it I encourage you to persue it, everyone i work with loves it

i have been enjoying pentesting and ctf a lot lately. kinda wanna get deeper into it. my autism found a new shiny special interest

btrfs tip for y'all: use subvolumes. restoring a snapshot of a subvolume is as simple as duplicating the snapshot as readwrite, deleting/moving the old subvolume and renaming the copy to the subvolume's name

restoring a snapshot of the root subvolume is. harder

important to state for the record that the British Supreme Court are idiots

they sound very scary when you describe them as The Supreme Court but remember, these are five dusty old cishets, one of whom is a weirdo who used to write homophobic documents for the Church of Scotland. I've seen so much commentary, even from pro-trans british journalists, about how the ruling is "forensic" and "balanced" and "rational" - no it isn't, it's clearly the work of people who don't know what they're talking about. You know how I know? They accidentally defined all bi women as lesbians. They said that the legal test for a lesbian is being an AFAB person attracted to another AFAB person, and at no point did anyone go, "Hang on a second, what about bi people?" Congratulations to terfs I guess, you were so excited to get rid of the T you got rid of the B!

This ruling is exactly what you'd expect from locking five old straight people in a room and asking them to set rules for queer life without speaking to any queer people. Their judgement is silly legal word games and it has no relation to real people's actual lives - if you wanna use lawyerspeak they've "undermined public confidence in the legal system." It's not even "the emperor has no clothes," it's "the emperor is naked and covered in shit."

i can kinda understand that politicians need to make a show of respect in their tone, like okay, probably a good thing that politicians don't get into the habit of publicly undermining judges. But any journalist who treats this ruling as remotely sensible is daft - only a straight person could make that kind of mistake

These judges are idiots - I use the word in the classical greek sense of someone who is not connected to and does not understand the life of the public, of the people. Their judgement is laughable and we don't have to respect them

i hate driving. here are the laws! if you break them there will be consequences! except youre also expected to break the law just a little bit. people will get mad at you if you dont. you dont have right of way but the person who does is waving you forward for some reason. here's the speed limit! it's not the speed limit, the actual speed limit is that plus ~5-10. the light is green but you're in the turning lane. can you go? should you have gone just then? the person behind you is honking at you. there's a weird noise coming from your engine; if you try to do the right thing and get it checked out, will you get scammed? you are driving a 1-2 ton metal machine rocketing at speeds unknown to humankind for most of history. around a million people die in car accidents every year; that's about one person every thirty seconds. if you take that seriously and try to drive safely then people get mad at you.

i couldn't reblog this gem so here you go

Have you tried other non verbal communication? Either texting with emojis, drawing how you're feeling, even just finding gifs and memes that help convey what you're feeling might be enough to ease yourself into talking about things you'd otherwise struggle to

gonna be honest dawg i think i have depression. but not the "i can't do anything" type depression because i am productive for 10-12 hours a day but the "i can't talk to anybody about my feelings" depression and it is a special kind of hell
