  • I think I might develop a crush on my friend, if I haven't already and am just unaware of it. we've been curling up and cuddling a lot lately and its been lovely, watching movies and then falling asleep intertwined together, giving each other tender touch, tracing lines on each others skin and cuddling for hours. But I dont want to put myself in a position of unrequited desire.

    Its so nice to entwine ourselves, her head on my chest, pulling hair out of her face and tracing lines on the skin of her back; falling asleep with her arms around me, laying on her shoulder and looking up at her. I dont want to stop that closeness but also if I develop a crush I should. and like yes I'm autistic and dont pick up on sexual/romantic interest from others, but I'm also pretty sure she hasn't expressed any indications of that towards me. Idk, rn I'm happy with where things are at, and if I stop being happy with it, wanting more or having like clear crush-crush feelings, I'll talk about it with her; I'd be crushed (lol) if the friendship got weird and awkward or dissolved.

    Oki so y'all got me doubting my perception of things, I'm gonna talk to her (hopefully today, she's coming over to spend time with my roommate and said shed get here a bit before so hopefully we've got time for that) and ask what her perceptions intentions and desires are around all of this. Ams anxious but is better to talk than not talk.

  • Ds9 brings me an unreasonable amount of joy. Yes I'm watching it again. Yes I just finished watching it for the i-dont-know-how-many-th time a month ago. It brings me joy and comfort.

    Yeah.... My face is one of the more dysphoric parts of my body, specifically because of the hair... It... It sucks. Kinda crushing. I'm just trying to ignore it for now but it heavily translates into me not taking care of myself. Like, my facial hair levels are directly correlated with how put together my life is. Not shaving makes everything harder

  • ::: spoiler dysphoria

    I have to grow my facial hair out for electrolysis and my

    is going hard. Its tough to feel cute when 5 days a week I have to have this disgusting wretched stuff on my face.

  • EdtechOS doesnt have a GUI

    No problem, I think to myself, typing pkg --search --remote --regex='.*emacs.*' | pkg --install -. Gnus has me taken care of.

    4 hours of config hacking later i can finally read my email. I see a message, "please fix the revisionism in your term paper, if you do not fix it by 11:00 there will be consequences". I check the clock, its 13:00. My emacs timer i just configured to fetch mail regularly dings, and a new message appears. "Please see me after class" it says.

  • Ran out of adhd meds today (i think, maybe theres a bottle rattling around somewhere with more?) and good lord i can feel the emotional instability and focus difficulties rearing their heads hard. Just wanna curl up and freak out and it sucks. But i spent 3 hours researching P2P E2EE encryption apps, and that was both fun and incredibly depressing. Also moxie (of signal/ows) is an asshole. Spent too long trawling old github issues and comments and i hate it. I hate the internet. I hate technology.

    send a
    to the sun to provoke a solar flare big enough to wipe out all electronics (Joking, that would be devastating and many many many people would die).

    Asked someone close to me to use it/its more often and its been really nice, i appreciate her so much.

  • Nah. Regardless of cuteness you dont get a pass. Thats not to say that you should throw him out, but the only way to learn is to receive criticism (like actually receive it internally, not just hear people criticize your words or actions). He should be told that this is fucked up, have the reasons why enumerated, and selfcrit on it. He needs to do better than this. I get the anger and frustration, but he needs to do/be better.

  • I wasnt optimistic about stalker 2, given all the bullshit stalker2 announcements over the past what, decade? But then a friend said it was really good! Aaaaaand it wasnt bad, but it didnt scratch the stalker itch. It didnt have the delicious eurojank feeling, it was too glossy, and the enemies were... Idk just didnt have the same feel as in og stalker. Mutants were just another enemy, and the danger wasnt something to be overcome with tactics, but with bruteforce it felt like. I was never scared playing stalker 2. In ShoC, i was terrified on multiple occassions (agoroprom underground being the first "oh fuck oh no i wanna go home" experience. I went in without enough ammo, didnt have a good savepoint to go back to to try and get ammo, and had to deal with bandits first. Then the bloodsucker came and i was so scared. It was great).

    Stalker2 isnt a bad game, it just doesnt scratch the stalker itch for me. Why would i play it when i could play CoC/M, or Anomaly, or Narodnaya Solyanka OP-2?

  • (I'll play it I swear

    )

    will you, really? [Teasing, silly]

  • I dont tell people that I use 'it', i just say "she/her" when they ask. Its just a few people who know. So idk if i would say i "confidently go by 'it'". But. I like being an it. Ive been called it durogatorily. But. Im not a person. I dont want to be a person. Its a pronoun i use cause i feel outside of the realm of personhood. But tbh, any pronoun can be used durogatorily. Ive been called "she" durogatorily. I guess some of it is a "yeah actually im not a person, but also fuck you just because im not a person doesnt mean i dont deserve respect". I dont want to let shitty people control my how i concieve of myself and percieve myself.

    Also like, its ok to use a pronoun for a while, and then stop using it, and then use it again. Or use different pronouns in different contexts (i do this a little bit). Its an ask of others to be sure. But its not something thats unreasonable to ask imo.

    If youd like you can demo/test pronouns with trusted friends or in online spaces (like here!) to see if 'it' is a pronoun thats functional for you
