Discovering that an ice cream is too heavy for me to hold today is...

Disability Action Brighton have a survey for disabled people - not just in the Brighton area, anywhere.

"Ableism in left-wing organising

"A consultation of the Disabled community aiming to find out how Disabled folks feel about the current leftist organising scene.

"You do not need to be local to Brighton - or even the UK - in order to fill this out. We want to consult as many Disabled folks as possible."

Whenever I hear/see/read people talking about cutting the modern day or scifi stories from the Assassin's Creed series, all I can think is:

"You know, I really love The Last of Us but I think it would be better if they cut the zombies."

Like, yeah, the games would still work without the scifi fluff or the modern day plot...but if you don't want that, then why the *fuck* are you playing the Assassin's Creed games?

There are literally hundreds of historical action games, historical drama games, historical RPGs, etc. Play something else!

If you don't want the stupid bullshit scifi ancient aliens conspiracy stories, then don't play the stupid bullshit scifi ancient aliens conspiracy story games.

Gamers in 2010s: "Happening to stumble across a diary or audio file that details exactly what happened in this area is so silly and breaks immersion."

Game Devs: "Ok, we'll implement something more personal and immersive."

Gamers in 2020s: "Characters talking to themselves about the things they're seeing is so silly, annoying, and immersion breaking."

With Count Binface in the news at the moment, I am being reminded of what I like to think of as one of my greatest "journalistic" achievements.

Back in 2011, I managed to grab a 1-on-1 interview with Alan "Howling Laud" Hope, leader of the Monster Raving Loony Party.

I was writing an article about "the importance of voting" and reached out to every major and minor party I could think of.

Howling Laud Hope was the only one to respond, and he did so personally. We arranged a time for me to phone him, and later that week we had an hour long call discussing politics in the UK, his views on voting, and why his party existed.

He was kind, intelligent, and funny.

By far the best interview I ever did, best person I ever interviewed.

Heart has been really fucky recently, like I can suddenly feel it doing extra strong beats and like it is struggling to do its job.

Tends to happen most when I'm excited or when I talk too much.

Tbf, I have just started on heart meds so it is probably our body getting used to that, but still...

Going shopping on Friday, for stuff other than groceries for the first time in well over a year, and I've decided I'mma try to wear clothes that show off my body instead of hiding it beneath baggy t-shirts.

Guygraines: Migraines For Him™

~3 hours of trying to move and get out of bed again, so we could get ready for sleep.

Finally did it, but feelibg our mental health/mask slipping, so we've taken a concoction of sleep aids an painkillers to hopefully knock us out until tge mask gets reset.

Nite nite lovelies,
Be safe, take care, don't die.

The things we would do if we could shapeshift

We forgot to share the dream that woke us up desperate this morning.

A rather simple dream, but we were in Little Space, wearing a diaper under our clothes, and we really needed to pee.

We started peeing, and then it just would not stop. We filled up the diaper, and then it started to soak into our clothes and puddle beneath us.

We grabbed fresh diapers and kept trying to just catch everything and soak up the puddle, but it just kept coming.

We then woke up and realised we had a very full bladder and were on the verge of actually wetting ourselves (didn't actually wear a diaper to bed though, so couldn't)

So yeah, that was fun.

Anybody know of a way I can increase the font size on here?

I'm using Waterfox, but increasing the font size in the Waterfox settings changes it on every other site except this one.

person 3, hyperphantasic, snarky: "omg, imagine having this bad of a take..."

person 1 again: "SEE THEY'RE DOING IT AGAIN! APHANTPHOBIA IN THE WILD"

person 2 again: "omg it's APHANTMISIA! are you a troll or something?"

future discourse idea-

person 1: "is it bigoted to tell people to imagine a better world when there are Literally people out there who can't? like, omg, aphantasic people exist. this is serious aphantphobia"

person 2, aphantasic: "omg, that itself is problematic. you should be saying aphant*misic* - they're not scared of aphantasics!!"

Hi! Have you played bunnies today? Why not? You should play bunnies. Bunnies like to play!

Play with all bunnies right now

It took me 4 hours to be able to sit up and turn my PC on so I can type properly, so I took advantage of that brief period of being upright to show everyone how good I look today.

(Please allow us this brief moment of confidence likely induced by it being in heat, it won't last long)

Age Regression is essentially the same as "IDK I'm just puppy, haha". It's a way to escape your worried head. It's about comfort, not exploitation. Same with Diapers. Same with most anything about entering a new headspace.
