She/her. I draw and write things then never publish them, and play a lot of tabletop rpgs.

@Soylent_Bean @PushinUpRoses Male calicos outright can't happen other than through chimerism, as far as I'm aware.

@PushinUpRoses No one has done any scientific studies as far as I'm aware, but I'm pretty sure it's just confirmation bias.

ALL cats are dumb/silly sometimes. We've just been primed to make more note of it when the cat is orange.

Trump has only ever been fun two times. Today and that day when we thought he might die of COVID.

[cabral @doctor_cabral]

The crazy thing about Trump paying hush money to a porn star is that the US government is facilitating a genocide in Gaza

@JasonKPargin Mostly only as the butt of jokes made on the Simpsons and Married With Children, but I am vaguely familiar with him. Wouldn't recognize him if I saw him though.

@katystoll Oh God the memes are ascending into reality!

@ChrystalWRox It kind of has to be, but why? It's the opposite of sexy, so it fails as porn or erotica, and if it's supposed to be an artistic statement about the way sex is sterilized and commodities in the modern world I can't think of a less appropriate venue for it.

@halomancer1 I don't know, I can kind imagine him as being the kind of asshole who in private is a depraved sexual predator of everyone that moves but in front of people puts on a friendly, fatherly persona.

@epistemophagy I could imagine GMOs having these hidden in them as viruses to try to prevent other companies from reverse engineering their products. Which is just one of the most depressingly cyberpunk (biopunk?) concepts I've ever heard.

@raluca_hippie @DefenceFaithful @ImogenWK He's also--it bears noting for those unfamiliar--a pompous and unserious jackass, and you are not meant to find his advice compelling, but shallow and/or hypocritical.

@NavinFS @textfiles It makes it to where providing Google access to one's web site has little to no positive side for the maintainers of the websites. Thus Google makes an enemy of those websites.

[Danni Jo 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @dame_danni]

@NavinFS @textfiles Whether or not you personally enjoy it as an end user is not the point--websites allow search engines to crawl and index their content because they send users their way. By scraping the content and then giving it to users in (unreliable) digest form, Google moves away from that.

@GuyInco23829654 @MichaelSteidel @esjesjesj Bear in mind that DS9 is set in a disputed border territory where a lot of exchange happens between Federation and non-Federation peoples, and where Federation policy and its economic protection does not always extend.

[Danni Jo 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @dame_danni]

@GuyInco23829654 @MichaelSteidel @esjesjesj Latinum is used as currency by the hypercapitalist ferengi (like Quark) and the cardassians. By and large the federation does not use it outside of trade with non-federation peoples, though there might be occasional black market usage, or when the federation economy breaks down.

@kageneko @Imani_Barbarin I think ableism would still be a problem that needs addressing even in an anarchist/socialist/communist/post-scarcity utopia, and has historically still been a problem in pre-capitalist societies.

[Danni Jo 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @dame_danni]

@kageneko @Imani_Barbarin Capitalism definitely makes things worse but I don't think it is the origin of ableism. I think ableism is borne out of a combination of psychological and sociological problems, natural fears, magical thinking, and even some things that are well-meaning but ignorant.

@TristanPEJ And unlearning the perfectionism in general. Just willingness to do something and have it not be good and be fine with it because I had fun doing it. Relearning that would be one of the best things that ever happened to my mental health.

[Danni Jo 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @dame_danni]

@TristanPEJ Same question but with creativity.

Whenever I see kids coming up with art or just playing pretend together or making up stories, I get so envious of how easily and joyfully the creativity flows out of them. So much of art is unlearning the adult hesitancy to that.
