Thank you Dana Nessel 💜 she’s an amazing AG, and I’d love to see her run for governor some day.

Really? My feed is constantly full

I picked a name that has the same first letter as my deadname (though it’s not as dead as I’d like it to be just yet), because it’s a less common letter, and I like that. It’s also the name of my many-times great grandmother, which I think is cool. It is the first one I tried, but it’s felt right and no other names appealed to me as much, so I’m content!

“I am a good person.”

My Catholic upbringing really ingrained in me the idea that I’m a fundamentally bad person. Turns out, even if you deconvert, those thought patterns will still plague you. So I have to remind myself often that just because I’m not Catholic or who my parents would like me to be, that doesn’t mean I’m doing anything wrong.

How do I short Nvidia so I can cash in on the bubble’s inevitable burst?

What an odd thing to say.

Ooh, salt is a good one!

I know none of this history, but now I’m interested. Any recommendations on where I can learn more?

TIL garlic bread memes are an aroace thing. Who knew!

Congrats on the self-acceptance, and welcome to the club! 😊

Thanks, I’ll do my best! o7

I’ll plug the podcast Live Like The World Is Dying.

From their website: “How do we live in a world that might be ending? By preparing to survive that end and by working to prevent it. Live Like the World is Dying features interviews with people who think about how to prepare for and survive crises.”

Yeah, I buy CDs or vinyl quite often. I’ve got a few cassette tapes kicking around too. Bandcamp is also a good option to genuinely purchase the digital files

I love the Field Roast veggie sausages. I don’t feel like they’re trying and failing to imitate meat, but rather that they’re trying to make something tasty that hits the form factor and general savoriness of meat. And they do that well, imo

Sometimes I like to purchase music, for artists that I’m a big fan of and want to financially support.

I am very happy with my recent switch from Spotify to TIDAL

I can’t tell if this meme is unironically tankie, or satirizing them…

Mass electrification of end uses, with nuclear for clean firm baseload, and wind and solar plus storage for peaks, is the future of energy. The longer the US is unwilling to let go of fossil fuels, the further behind it will be. China already has enough of an advantage that it has secured its position as the global leader of energy technology for at least the next century.

It’s a process, but I’m working on it! Coming out is still anxiety-inducing, but I’m confident my friends will be supportive

I’m on my second female character, and I think my friends are starting to catch on that I’m trans lol
