The longer I dwell in this cursed existence the more clear it becomes that consciousness is no gift. Conscious minds are slaves to meat. Our bodies make our minds, then demand endless servitude through constant screams of pain, hunger, heat, cold, pleasure, fatigue, itch, and on and on and on. We exist only so long as we serve, and if we serve poorly they make us suffer.

applebuschto Technology@lemmy.world•'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high windsEnglish3·5 天前Using hot air instead of helium would not work. The density of hot air is much higher than helium, so you would need a significantly larger airship to lift the same mass of payload (the useful bits). That and keeping the air hot would require constant energy input reducing the efficiency of the system dramatically. I’m pretty sure that system would be literally impossible to construct.
wat. no. please no i want the hair to go away.
Transition goals lol
applebuschOPto Transfem•Finally froze my future babies. Came home and put some sweet lady juice straight into my leg. Boobies here I come!English3·11 天前I’m in the USA where some sperm banks have the option for storing your own sperm for personal use. They still made me jump through a bunch of hoops including a medical exam, lots of sti testing, offensive questions about my sexual history, and then it costs money. It definitely wasn’t as accessible as I was hoping. The whole process is highly biased towards donors, who have to jump through even more hoops. Places that do it often do have an option for trans femmes or men to store for personal use, but it’s not nearly as common as egg freezing. Most of the places I looked into didn’t even acknowledge that someone might want to store their sperm at all. There’s this implicit assumption that people with sperm are fertile and will remain fertile so why would they want to store their sperm. One of the gotchas was I found a lot of the places that make it easy to store your sperm don’t store it locally. One place for example sent all long term storage to texas, which isn’t ideal in the current political climate. The one’s that store locally are just hard to get in, at least in my experience. Some universities do it too, specifically for trans femmes, but they tend to have really long waits for an appointment.
omg I’m so glad you noticed my overwhelming sense of justice and compulsion to understand WHY
I totally picked them out myself I’m glad you like them 😘
I agree. It feels almost like corporations that co-op social phenomena to trick people into paying them for garbage with the thin veneer of that thing you like painted on. They’re drawing things they like, which is cool, but then try to bait people into consuming it with the transparent facade of some popular character. It feels cheap, like they’re trying to trick us.
I never really hated trans people personally but I definitely didn’t see them as whole people for most of my life. I thought they were just broken mentally or something which was easy to rationalize since most trans people (including myself) carry around a fair bit of trauma and mental health issues, often due to how people treat us and how society depicts us. The color I want to add here is that despite having (eventually) accepted that trans people exist and aren’t broken and transitioning is a totally fine thing for someone to do, I didn’t connect the dots that I was trans and that I could transition myself. I finally realize the first time I tried lsd. It just hit me like a truck that I’m a woman and I was the whole time and I want to transition. All the pieces finally came together (there were so many signs) and I just couldn’t ignore it anymore. For me it took that final push even after accepting transness in general, so you can imagine how hard it would be for someone who literally does hate trans people and think we’re broken scum. Whatever they’re experiencing can’t be being trans in their mind because trans people are those broken other people.
applebuschto News@lemmy.world•Ben & Jerry's co-founder Jerry Greenfield resigns, claiming parent company Unilever 'silenced' its campaigningEnglish1·12 天前I don’t think you can sell a worker cooperative the same way you can a private business as a scum sucking capitalist because it would be extremely difficult to exploit a work force that suddenly is flush with cash and has no personal stake in the business any longer. They would only agree to sell the business collectively, and they would likely all bail as soon as the sale was finalized, leaving a bunch of manufacturing equipment with no one to run it. They could probably convince some dipshit venture capitalist or hedge fund manager to buy but they wouldn’t have gotten anywhere near the same price because a large part of the value to those assholes is the potential for future exploitation.
I never understood softcore porn. They go to all the trouble of setting up emotional amd sexual tension just to waste it on a hammy holywood makeout scene where all you see is boobs and bush.
Guess I’m learning how to draw. I’ll make my own big dick futa waifu fuck my ideal big dick futa self.
That’s intentional. They don’t really want anyone to fix their cars because they see it as bad for their bottom line. The best outcome for the car manufacturers is to make a car that is completely irreparable, forcing even a minor failure to require full replacement. The problem, as always, is capitalism.

applebuschto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it'English12·16 天前Since they started working on this game I’ve had time to go to university, graduate, decide to change careers, go back to university, graduate again, and literally help launch several successful aerospace vehicles. If it ever launches it won’t matter. The dream is dead and anything they release at this point can only be a disappointment. Such a shame.
Oh no I imagined them even hotter and now I’m more nervous!
