  • When I first started seeing my now-spouse, she commented that she thought it would be nice if I added some flavor to my wardrobe that wasn’t black tee shirts with optional band/sportsball/nerd printing. So I gradually added some colors, but quickly realized that the brighter the shirt, the worse it looked on my fat gut. And it became tedious trying to find desaturated or earth tones in casual clothing (especially polos for work).

    I eventually gave up and just started buying cheap black tees in bulk every few years, oversized so I could throw them in the dryer instead of hang drying them like I’d been doing for years to preserve the prints etc. The spoons set aside for wardrobe choices were better allotted elsewhere.










  • First they came for the disabled people, and I said nothing because I was not disabled yet.

    Then they came for the immigrants and I said nothing because my ancestors stole this land generations ago.

    Then they came for the transgender people, and I said nothing because I was not trans.

    Then they came for the rest of the people of color and I said nothing because I was white.

    Then they came for the Jewish people and I said nothing because I was not Jewish.

    Then they came for the rest of the queers and I said nothing because I was not queer.

    Then they came for the leftists and I said nothing because I was not a leftist.

    Then they came for the rest of the women and I said nothing because I was not a woman.

    Then they came for me, and there was no one left to fight for me.









  • I’m not saying that the ascii table defines hate speech/letters. That’s slippery slope territory. I’m saying that it’s feasible that this particular fascist’s fascination with this particular letter may not be a coincidence.

    • He’s emotionally a child
    • He self-identifies as “techie”
    • He’s been trying to cram X into all of his projects since day one

    After those picture-perfect seig heils, and years of childish petulance broadcast to the world, yeah, I’m inclined to believe X has been “clever” code for HH all along.
