@witchfynder_finder i thought it was very odd

it really could have been summed up in one tweet like

“i think that good labour is that which the Creator endorses, and this is Capitalism; speedrunners do other kinds of labour, and this is Communism”

you can’t use TWO SEPARATE METHODS OF CASE‐INSENSITIVE COMPARISON for DIFFERENT VALIDATORS

ruby on rails programmers: why not call your model Z?

Thoughts about "generational" queer stuff 

@bgcarlisle all of this is true but on the other hand, in the past in queer communities there was a STRONG emphasis on chosen family and cross-generational ties—“drag mothers” being one example; as well as all other forms of adult queers putting up kids who were kicked out of their homes.

as the LGBT community has made progress/acceptance the kids have not been forced into the same kinds of alternative communities, and instead have been able to mostly get by in the mainstream ones (keeping their straight parents instead of getting new gay ones). this has turned out to be a double-edged sword because queer adults interacting with young people is still not considered acceptable in many mainstream environments. so the queer kids today mostly are disconnected from the sorts of places where the historical queer community/generational knowledge has been.

(also, the violence against queer elders has not ended, if you look at the treatment of LGBT people in elder care facilities)
