i'm agender; they/them pronouns preferred, but ultimately it's not relevant to my goal of eradicating the demon capitalism from the face of this earth

Bio

It's me tobi! :skullpat:

I'm almost 40 and I'm tired. I like books, plants, butts, cats, 90s action films, and putting bugs in the code.

I'm also: queer; nerdy; trans; anxious about like, the world, man; an aficionado of the bizarre and the grotesque.

Politically I consider myself to be a communist, though I'm still figuring things out.

I'll mostly be using this account for posting nonsense that comes into my head, and delighting in goblinesque shenanigans. I may also rant about things that bother me from time to time.

I'll likely also post / boost some queer naked sexy stuff so ya know, be an adult and all that jazz.


⚠️ Please don't send me a follow request unless the following conditions are met:

  1. You're cool.
  2. We've interacted in some positive way before (DM'ing me to introduce yourself counts).
  3. You post about more than just computer touching and, *shudder*, free software. This isn't my LinkedIn profile, I want to get to know people.

Even then I may say no out of sheer caprice! Tee hee!

I'm gonna use this thread to copy quotes from an essay collection I've been reading lately called Transgender Marxism.

Unless specified otherwise, all following quotes in this thread are taken from: Gleeson, Jules Joanne, and O'Rourke, Elle. Transgender Marxism. 2021. Pluto Press, London.

I'll add to it from time to time when I have the energy and when I find something interesting.

actually sweaty it's only propaganda if it comes from China, Russia, or the USA; if it comes from the EU it's just facts that one should accept at face value :) :) :) 🇪🇺😍

fedidb seems totally busted for like a month now, servers with no robots.txt are being removed from the database, so it looks like the stats are constantly going down :')

https://github.com/fedidb/issues/issues/55

one day maybe it will reach zero and we can all go outside and touch grass

i said a few months ago that stats on these kinds of crawlers are inherently false and unreliable and this really is proving it, albeit not in the way that I meant
