I think a large amount of transphobia is rooted in deep homophobia and toxic masculinity and can be boiled down to “what if I find this person attractive and it turns out they have the wrong genitals, what does that make me”
Not _all_ transphobia is about that, to be sure, but I think it’s a primary factor.

Is my predilection for collecting old computers and game systems merely a vain attempt to recapture the perceived simplicity of an earlier time? Forever lost to the arrow of entropy, if indeed it ever truly existed at all, rather than being a construct of faulty memories and tinted nostalgia.

Weather is a mixed bag of clouds, lots of humidity and some sun. It’s Admission Day holiday today in Hawai'i today. Sometimes it’s wild to remember that my father graduated high school a full two years before we became a state. #luckywelivehawaii #morningthoughts

For people who deal with chronic low self-esteem, the true threat of LLMs is the constant nagging fear that they _are_ better at you at doing the stuff you do, and you are now truly and utterly obsolete (whether or not that’s actually true)
Which is why it is extremely important that we separate our self-worth from our productivity, and find value in ourselves beyond raw output

When you realize that life has no intrinsic meaning, you can either become a nihilist, or go down the extremely cliché but valid path of trying to make a meaning for yourself

Thinking this morning about the relationship in my brain between “sex and/or porn” and “escape from reality”, and realizing that I have subconsciously conflated the two since, well, puberty
I think it’s a big reason why I simply could not comprehend asexual people for the longest time

I seek out perspectives that differ from my own because I realize that growing up white, cis, mostly-straight and male, in a suburban community, going to a Catholic school for eight years, probably gave me just a _bit_ skewed of a perspective. Not that this necessarily happened (entirely) on purpose or maliciously; many of my teachers and role models probably didn’t know better themselves.
I try to shut up and _listen_, even when it’s uncomfortable. (And it can get _damned_ uncomfortable sometimes.) I can empathize to an extent, having experienced difficulties with being undiagnosed #AuDHD, but I recognize there are orders of magnitude of differences between my lived experience and those of marginalized groups.
Anyways, as an example, I recommend creators like Pillboy on YT (https://youtube.com/@studiopillboy). His witty, insightful videos are fantastic.

In a life where I’ve always felt like I sailed through the basics of most fields of interest, and then hit a brick wall, while everyone around me took a slow and steady path from the start, ramping up more slowly, but skipping the wall altogether… here comes this thing that lets me scale the wall with ease. Except it isn’t actually me scaling the wall. It’s me directing something else as _it_ scales the wall for me, and then keeps going.
But I still get dopamine from it: not from accomplishment, but from feelings of power and control. And it arrives faster than it would if I struggled and tried and failed and learned myself. It is _addictive_. Maybe just to me, maybe to some #adhd / #AuDHD brains in general, but it is.
And now we have nearly every employer out there demanding that we use this addictive tool or end up unemployed.
It isn’t like the dot-com bubble. It’s so, so much worse.
