It’s fascinating to me that all the places that hated DEI are the ones that are doing the most to push AI

If I'm honest with myself, this is why I became a pretty good basketball player in my youth.

However if you are a female or Black gifted autistic child your masking may look different.
You may have saw your only option of fitting in was being the best, being perfect at everything. Leading and controlling the room may have felt like your only way

Ha, this is how I know I'm a bit of a masochist.
I will sit there and die hundreds of times just to say I figured it out to no one but myself.

Another thing about me and video games, I have about a good five minutes of me being frustrated with a boss before I look up that strategy guide because the last thing I’m gonna do is let something I PAID FOR stress me out.

A lot of my daily life is balancing my horror and rage that not many people seem to notice Western imperialism's daily crimes against humanity and my joy and gratefulness about being part of a culture that still find connection and love in the midst of it.

anytime i come across someone berating folks for wanting validation, i know they still have some learning to do.
validation is essential to our being & development. the key is to ensure you're looking into the right mirrors for an accurate reflection

I think the main issue here is that you need to find the person whose need for validation matches your capacity.
Cause we all need it somehow/ somewhere. That's human.

Jay-Z and Diddy are basically two sides of the same coin.
And once she divorces him (IF she does) that dude is basically extra crispy done
I think that they met when she was 18 but didn’t hook up for real until she was 19 which is creepier when you remember he was in his early 30s (I think?).

Jay-Z has wiped his Instagram. Beyonce has lost 10 million followers. The NFL and Apple Music unfollowed Jay-Z on socials. So has his mother-in-law and Rhianna.

Trump being flagrantly racist is not something for white people to be satisfied performing shock at, or to be satisfied mocking as exceptional. It's something for them to look at & go, wow, look where white supremacy got us. We must enlist in the effort to fight it for the collective good.

This has made me unattractive to many people who prefer straight relationships, but it's worth for me because I don't have to starve for intimacy waiting for something explicitly romantic to come along.
I just love on my people.

People treat non-romantic relationships in a very laissez-faire way and I’m just not with that. I don’t reserve my best for my romantic partners.

Transitioning from Plex to Jellyfin is turning out to be one the single greatest self hosting decisions I've ever made.
It started out as a side project just to see if I could make it work with my set up and now, it's just a part of my daily routine.

I kind of hate being an expert on hate networks work online, but when build safety tools for largely unregulated spaces, you see the worst of the worst.
And spaces that don't account for bad people and their methodology is just an invitation specifically for them to continue.

An easy way to recognize 4channers is how they center Black folks in their talks about what is wrong with the world.
For example, they may express they are for Universal Healthcare, but they'll say things like 'well, if Black people got off welfare, we'd have better healthcare.'
