(a headline in the New York Times saying “No One Knows How Many L.G.B.T.Q. Americans Die by Suicide”, followed by the first three pages of “Queer and Now” by Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, first published in 1993, where she specifically addresses the number of queer people who die by suicide as well as persistent congressional pressure to keep the number from being known, stretching back to a report from the United States Department of Health and Human Services in 1989.)

» I’ll meet you in Copenhagen—you know I fucking hate to fly. Look how much time it’s taken; I think I’m going to die.

» What could I sell to come and see you? Who could I tell, other than you, that I don’t feel like this often? I don’t feel like this often.

» I know that I don’t—I know I don’t really know you. I know that I might—I know that I might not get to.

whose favourite heart emoji is ❦

right now i am cacheing objects as WeakRefs inside an object structure and using a FinalizationRegistry to delete the refs once they are no longer needed as a way of ensuring that the same object is returned every time from the same inputs

but like… it could just be a record and then i wouldn’t need to bother

this code will be so much better once we have records and tuples

covid was not supposed to make you less radical

absolutely wild the number of hardline “everyone is suffering from mental illness due to rampant abuses of capitalism” folks who in the past 3 years have abruptly pivoted to “everyone is suffering from mental illness because it is a side-effect of catching covid one time”

you can always access superclass private fields inside of subclasses if you simply define the subclass within the lexical scope of the superclass

but it’s a *NIX nerd

that’s right kids i used partial application on a class constructor

uses too many functional techniques for the object‐oriented types and too many object‐oriented techniques for the functional types

which is how you know it’s Javascript

great word; completely unpronouncable in many languages

you can just get dogs wet

they haven't done anything but that's what i mean

i knew that zelda fans were racist but i was kinda hoping they wouldn't be THIS racist

i legitimately cannot tell who is plagarizing whom here like Achouri has the earlier citation by several years and has this story published in at least two contexts but Skye Daphne doesn’t SEEM fake and has the backstory that the story was written by her and her two besties in 5th grade and her profile HAS A PHOTO WITH COMMENTS FROM THE BESTIES

« "Sword, parry!" Mirza cried.

The sword danced faster than lightning, all around the ship, knocking down all the arrows as fast as they came.

So many arrows were knocked aside into the water that they made a great heap floating right behind the ship. The Garda's ship ploughed into this and scraped to a halt with big scratches in its paint.

Now the Garda was furious. "If I want this done right," she muttered, "I guess I'll have to take things into my own hands."

Using powerful evil words, this time she cast a spell on her own two hands. Her wrists grew longer and longer, her fingers grew colder and harder. At last her hands had become frightful silver grappling hooks on long white ropes. »
