unfortunately this means that I have to learn Java and C++ - two languages that I want absolutely nothing to do with
I’ve decided that I’m getting an associate’s degree in programming, because maybe in 2 years there will be tech jobs again and maybe the corpos will fucking take me seriously for once if I have a degree

@fxchip to be honest I didn’t even know that isogender was a thing! I just guessed that there must be some third category that I’m not thinking of, so I added it as an afterthought - but I’m really glad that I did because a lot of people feel seen and included who otherwise wouldn’t
@pharmafemboy hehehehe! it’s because I think they’re so interesting, of course! no other reason at all
@shijikori that is terrible omg. this is definitely what I suspected in terms of employment, but it didn’t occur to me that housing discrimination was a problem as well. I absolutely hate that
writers have the power to inspire the weak and downtrodden, to change people’s perspectives, to help the traumatized process and heal from their trauma, to create hope and show a way forward. but instead they repeatedly choose to add more pain, hopelessness, and suffering to this world - and people love it. it’s all they want. anything else is treated as wrong somehow. it’s called “bad writing” or “childish” or “boring”. life is pain, and why should art be any different? why should our only escape from the horrors of daily life be anything other than more of exactly the same horrors?
story-driven games are just a manipulation tactic to make you feel personally involved in what happens in a story so the writer can use that to hurt you more deeply
(I don’t actually mean this I’m just bitter)
@Steve to be honest there’s already a massive sampling bias since I’m asking on such a niche online platform - so I’m not going to take these results too seriously anyway hehe. also it felt weird and invasive to ask trans people if they were out or not, I guess - but maybe that’s me being overly cautious
ughh Second Wind’s most anticipated games of 2026 are entirely story-driven fuck off
40k as a setting actually has a lot of cool shit in it, but 40k media almost invariably fixates on the least interesting and most generic parts (space marines, orcs, tyranids)
but like 40k has:
also I mentioned orcs as generic above but that’s not actually true? the orcs in 40k are actually a fungus that reproduces asexually and they’re so psychically powerful that their technology only works because they believe it does. but in 40k media they’re presented as generic for some reason lol idk
okay I’m morbidly curious about the correlation between transness and unemployment. are you…
humans are so cute when they’re tensing and squirming under the gentlest touch of my fingers. their sleeping bodies get so worked up once I start flooding their minds with breathless fantasies of submission
they usually wake up covered in sweat and their own fluids, achingly needy, and completely unable to find relief unless they indulge whatever new fetish I’ve given them. they had better hope it’s nothing too embarrassing~
Just an FYI in case anyone was interested: if you're printing something potentially clandestine, be careful about where you print it.
succubi don’t sleep - we watch others sleep. and give them vivid dreams that become obsessive, shameful yearnings
