Lady of the Land @Lady@cat.family

it did have the great line « as a writer you only have so many avenues for fucking your reader and sentence structure can be one of the more visceral » and wow do i wish more authors understood this

somebody told me « I literally started taking notes on your comment; it's one of the most informative ones I've seen on the site » on AO3 and this was my reply

honestly it wasn’t that great of a comment but i do know how to write a sex

*folgers voice* you’re my anxiety this year 💕

updated; added a Spotify playlist at the beginning as well for convenience

capitalism sells you attractive fictions

sometimes i forget that i don’t actually know whether the woman model modelling L.L. Bean flannel buttonups is a lesbian

i mean in addition to the old ones because they’re lit

might need to add some new musical selections tho

doing a once‐over of the GlitchCat /about/more and honestly it’s pretty alright y’all

(for clarity: GlitchSoc is already a queer trans fork; i mean a slightly harder queer trans fork which is friends with GlitchSoc and Hometown but isn’t as concerned with upstream compatibility)

@maloki led that charge and you can see her recent posts for more on how it went; i won’t try to summarize it here

HOWEVER in the time since then, we have also had new projects spring up in the form of GlitchSoc and Hometown; please please support these as they are the future of Mastodon development

also, if you want to get to work on a queer trans fork, @ me

recognizing that queer people were the reason Mastodon's featureset was (and is) what it is, we hoped to formalize power structures which had previously been informal so that Eugen couldn’t do shit like “get rid of unlisted privacy setting” without oversight

in the early months of development there was a SPECIAL DISCORD CHANNEL that if you paid enough on Eugen’s Patreon you could get access to in order to advocate new features. prior to April 2017 this channel was significantly queer. after April 2017 Eugen found other funding sources in the form of white techbros.

THAT’S WHAT IT’S ABOUT

it was a response to CHANGING MATERIAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS REGARDING MASTODON DEVELOPMENT not simply about “culture shock” or whatever lmao

your five year reminder that MOURNING MASTODON was a response to techbros PAYING EUGEN MONEY so he wouldn't have to listen to queer people anymore

kitten has decided that it is the season for snuggling

i don't think it would even work anyway due to how emoji get federated lol

(i will not actually do this)
