@Cyborgneticz can’t have it be accidentally entertaining 😆
@Cyborgneticz did they request the methods chapter specifically or was that your addition?
@aescling unfortunately anytime I try an alternative app they are terrible
@aescling its a very old app & hasn’t been updated in ages so its not a huge surprise
@alpine_thistle lmao to be fair you did a *very* good job with yours so it’d be hard to top

@Cyborgneticz guit linguistics
@Cyborgneticz man they tried to pull this with autism too & the whole community was like ‘no im definitely autistic not a person with autism’. I wonder what it is about neuro stuff that makes people who aren’t involved wanna do this
do you need something nice to do this weekend?
@pamela i have done that last one! Well, not this weekend, but I do know where the nearest phone booth is
@Lady never to late to start, I mean
@Lady i mean its not like theres an age limit on fucking hot older women?
@ljwrites yeah it really sucks that that happened to you & especially that so many of your friends turned on you or walked away in response.
The way even systems (theoretically) designed to protect marginalized people from people in power inevitably get turned on people in power is really frustrating
@ljwrites yeah I’ve always been very dependent on the internet for my social life (bc disability, for a few years I was almost housebound & even now I dont have a lot of capacity of offline socialization) and I don’t want to find out what would happen if I ended up the target of a fullscale dogpile
I would like to think I have the resources to handle it, but.
@ljwrites yeah dominance and ignorance is definitely a good way of putting it!
My main issue with these kinds of outrage responses is that, in my experience, they largely only effect people who are already vulnerable. There are exceptions of course (some of the men during the Me Too movement) but I often feel like its people who are disabled/poc/etc who are dependent on social media get seriously hurt while J K Rowling can keep tweeting & spending her millions on TERFS
@platypus man thats a rough mistake. My sympathies to whoever made it!
