i saw the most cromulent minds of my generation destroyed by police violence, starving, cold, dragged through liberal streets at dawn, while craptacular tech bros embiggened hollow eyed dynamos, sat smoking in the supernatural darkness of VR, contemplating generative saxamaphones

I find it extremely powerful that in a time of immense transphobia everywhere, more people are coming out as trans than ever before.

the goal of transphobes is to erase us from reality and even as they appear to be winning in this moment they’re only ever pushing back the tide.

the only arnold performance that's made me cry, that's for sure

like... i'll always have a place in my heart for bean-dad (hear me out), for introducing me to it on that podcast about war movies with those greatest-generation guys

shame that he had to be an asshole to his child daughter on camera

we'd get there early and play the linux tron game until the bell

he gave us root access to every other student's pc. he didn't tell us not to use it, but he would drop you a letter grade *if* you caused a problem, and he could prove it was you

lot of cd drives opening mysteriously during labs :)

he was the best, he spent about half of every gossiping about the school administration or how to manipulate resumes

i took a redhat class with him, and he was learning php with us, about 1 week ahead in the curriculum

i like what katie is saying

in highschool i had a teacher who taught me the phrases "learned helplessness" and "learn by doing"

in a web design class, he told us "first, try to figure it out, then google it. then ask your neighbor. then the other one. then come find me. i'm already busy helping."

Katie Tightpussy, Editor-In-Chief @katie.bzky.team · 12d

i was talking about it with a friend earlier trying to clarify my thoughts because i often say learned helplessness is a disease which i feel like is a core part of my politics in that to me the human condition is action, growth, and change, so stagnation is self-dehumanization, which is very bad!
