We have been aroud for 250 years and for a portion of that we were buying and selling human beings!

The only thing the America 250 anniversary celebration brings to mind for me is how very recent slavery in the USA was. They try to make it seem like it was very long ago, a relic of the ancient past alongside the Pyramids and Rome, but it's not that far away from our own lifetimes.

Sometimes I think about this guy on YouTube that said his hamster randomly looked at him, farted, and died on the spot.

Saw a white man just now in the parking lot with a shirt that read "I CLEAN MY GUN WITH LIBERAL TEARS".

this is my favorite bit on the worm, thanks @woof for introducing me to the Saga of Boobs.Penis (beige.party)

@angeliclayer I'm not sure how viable the Fediverse is for fundraising. That's one of its tiny drawbacks. Doesn't seem to work well. I'm not an expert on this, though. And obviously I have very little reach on here so I don't know what's going on with that yet!

@SecondUniverse There is more to this story because I am black and I think that it was also a case of medical negligence and medical racism on that white pediatrician's part, like "haha, this useless subhuman's gonna be so confused when he can't breed"

He got what he wanted when he misdiagnosed my sister as having 'teething issues' when she in fact had a congenital heart defect and straight up died at 18 months when I was 7 years old, but in spite of his malicious behavior, I survived and escaped his clutches with my skin intact

@SecondUniverse

I was not operated on but I vividly remember my pediatrician threatening to call CPS on my mother if she did not comply with his demands to cut my hair short and dress me in what he deemed boy's clothes when, and also him telling me it was perfectly normal for me to have undescended testicles, then giving me a very strange speech about how I "wouldn't get to do everything other people do" when i hit the age other kids hit puberty.

I strongly suspect he thought I would have done some drastic to myself upon discovering I was infertile and intersex later on in life but I gave his ass the swerve by coming out as a trans woman in my 20s after discovering i might be trans in my mid-teens (partially because of my unconventional and unusual puberty). I even reckon he thought it might have been funny for me to discover this on my own later in life while trying to fit into the "male" box he was forcing me into against the consent of my mother at that time.

But yes, doctors conspire to stop us from knowing what's wrong with us. I think they do this intentionally to cause us harm and in the hopes of culling our population.

Linux oomfs help:

What's a good low profile image editor for Linux that resembles ms paint and IS NOT GIMP?

@jackemled From what I could tell, listening to the youtube videos this child was watching secondhand at the nursing home my mother's in, the latter.

Seemed like there were two cartoon characters meeting and greeting various SCPs who were 'very spooky', and both of the cartoon characters were assuring each other nothing bad would happen, until it did, because of course the spooky SCP would jump out and spook them.

Basically horror movie shit distilled into its barest essence for kids.
