Wow, talk about a throwback. Hi RDN, you probably don't remember me XD

@pandaexpress Around that long yeah, glad to hear it came around for you in the end.
I've been pretty well all around. 2017 was kind of a mess but other than that, there have been a lot more upsides than downsides. Some losses sure, but death is unavoidable, all that is within my control ticks under my rythm and that's all that matters to say life is good.
Made a lot of friends, got new certifications and a different job, dropped my ex and had a lot of fun these last 8 years. All I can possibly complain of right now is that the stock market is not as good as I'd wish lol.Emily likes this. -
@awl A whole lot better than I was last we met. You?

@pandaexpress much the same. Purpose in life does wonders for a person.

The backpack I'm using for over 15 years is still holding well enough but I feel like I've grown out of it. It was fine for a good while but my use-case has shifted dramatically. Nowadays I use it for holding all my bike stuff and for some emergency storage whenever my shopped items don't fit in my bags. The stuff I have in my backpack right now gets more in the way lately because the items are oddly shaped for the compartments they are. A poncho, umbrella, small first-aid kit, repair tools, hand pump, tote bags, paper tissues, N95-masks, pens. I wish I could sew one myself.

@awl I use my backpack almost exclusively when I use my bike. So my needs are pretty much the same all the time. On good weather days I don't need to carry an umbrella or poncho but they will be definitely not there when I actually need them if I don't have it always packed. I hope I don't overpack. I was once thinking about carrying a set of new chain and hoses but these might be overkill as I would need more time to fix that than to push the bike back home.

@adiwan hydraulic brakes? If so man that’s kind of higher end
-
@awl I just have good ol' ordinary rim brakes that are attached to a bowden tube. Also my hub gearing brakes when backpedaling.

Did anybody get to see the recent aurorae?

@awl Envy, lol. They were supposedly vivible from about an hour away from my house, but I didn't trust that I would be the only one making the drive, kinda expected a horde of headlights to drown it out :-/

@scribus yeah you’re far enough down south people would lose their banana over it. I had seen them off the north shore last two years living in the car.

I mean like look if you’re 19 and she’s 17 then neither of you really has your mango together, so who cares, right? But RageNineteen was 28 years old and dating a 16 year old who he’d met when she was 15 while dating her friend who was also 15, and that’s just supposedly normal in the YouTube world?? The hell’s going on????

@tiff It's probably because I stopped paying the company who does it for me, so they fixed it so they could hassle me to pay them again

so maybe a weird question, but is there a term for people who... kind of don't care about their gender identity? like, not gender neutral. i've always been comfortable being a man, and I still am, but as i get older my gender (and to a certain extent my sexual orientation, though my tastes are still pretty geared towards feminine-looking people - but not necessarily exclusively women) is something that matters to me less and less, to the point where, if I weren't so obviously male, i could see myself being pretty tolerant of just about any pronoun anyone wants to call me. gender agnostic?

@zeldatra We'll be lucky if there aren't already sixteen competing terms for it
-
@zeldatra there's always agender i guess, i know people who use that term with that kind of sentiment. i feel pretty similarly wrt myself but at the same time changing anything about my identity would just insinuate that i care about it more than i do

I love when Dan Harmon says something mean about Trump and people start bringing up that time he humped a baby doll in a Channel 101 sketch ten years ago.
Friday, 14-Aug-20 23:55:20 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation people have tried to cancel him like every single year but nobody cancels Dan Harmon better than Dan Harmon himself imo
-
@tiff I really thought he’d have left or been ousted from Rick & Morty by now but watching Roiland’s solo show helped me realize that Dan Harmon isn’t the hero he asked for, but he’s the one we deserve
-
-
I'm not even sure some of these changes are "problems" and not more like "just an obvious place to maybe recast for a start," really?
Tuesday, 30-Jun-20 03:38:19 UTC from web-
@scribus the sentiment is nice and all but working from the societal equivalent of an F to a C- and calling it a day is not the big move they must think it is
-
@tiff Oh, and I totally get that. Like, a BW vid saying "I take responsibility" or whatever? Jegus... It's all been showboating and easy answers so far, it seems.
-
@scribus oh yeah that too, I was thinking about the industry at large but also individual people saying "I didn't know this racist thing I actively engaged in was racist" is something I don't often buy
-

was about to joke about how like 50% of Always Sunny will get thanos'd but i googled it and how are netflix only removing a single episode lmaoo
Monday, 29-Jun-20 23:18:47 UTC from web-
@tiff Is it the Lethal Weapon one
-
@mrmattimation sure is
-
-
I know that they're pulling an episode of Community for implied blackface, and without even reading into it I know the exact scene they're talking about and I sincerely do not believe that a single person with any stake in societal progression watched that scene and thought it was actually a problem
Monday, 29-Jun-20 10:45:08 UTC from web-
@tiff Similarly, I’m pretty sure pulling an episode of Golden Girls is not especially high on BlackLivesMatters’ priority list.
-
@mrmattimation I dunno how far exactly I'd go to defend these sorts of jokes but pretty much every example I can think of is pretty obviously a subversive criticism *of* blackface. Obviously I am not the person who can/should decide if that makes it more okay, but I feel like removing these scenes is stifling discussions of anti-racism if anything. Like just put the disclaimer in front like WB and Disney or whatever

in the mood to chase someone off the site again, quick someone say something headass

@tiff apu wasn’t really that big of a problem

@mrmattimation I would prefer it for future reference if POC actors got to voice POC characters, especially in the current industry where they aren't getting the same treatment or opportunities as white people; but I absolutely agree that this current wave of networks removing TV episodes with instances of racism and actors conveniently regretting voicing POC roles all of a sudden is largely posturing in the absence of actual willingness to, you know, hire and support and pay POC. I also don't think it's a particularly far reach to suggest that companies are just pretending this is what activists are asking for as some sort of psyop, since it will most likely push the needle back in their favour (i.e. still not hiring, supporting and paying POC)

Is there a name for people who are basically terfs but instead they hate gay men because they think male homosexuality is the result of misogyny? I seem to recall knowing someone like that in high school.

@mrmattimation that's called being gay

Started binge-watching Community. Before I have never watched more than a few episodes.
Thursday, 11-Jun-20 16:48:56 UTC from web-
@adiwan Community season 2 is one of my fave seasons of anything ever so I'd definitely take it that far at least. The rest ranges from okay to pretty good for me if you pretend the show ended with season 5
-
@tiff Finished Season 5 today and it was a stinker. I'm mid-season 6 and it ain't better.
-
@adiwan I got like 4 episodes into season 6 and gave up lmao, it is not the same show at all by that point

I say, considering USA's COVID response, we should start a nationwide campaign informing people of the dangers of putting their junk in a blender (or vice versa), just to see what happens

Does anyone else find it particularly gross when for-profit corporations send messages about donating to charities or supporting a particular political opinion that doesn't have to do with their main business? It makes sense on the hiring end of course, and I get that companies are made of humans, but doing it on the public end just feels like capitalizing on people's emotions. The realty group holding my apartment made a donation to a campaign related to the protests. Why not give that money back to your leasers, or even your employees instead? They can then choose to do what they want with it.

When I was in high school I used to talk endless batcave on BLM because I was dumb and saw Ferguson on TV and, in a profound inability to recognize my own privilege, clung to the idea that the riots were a failure of the community, instead of a result of failure by society. I’m truly, truly sorry to anyone I offended with that kinda BS
