“Programmed to respond to over 700 questions, none of which include chicken fingers.” - Sergeant Vatred

I have to agree to disagree.

I often do find myself more likely to talk about gender specific issues when I know that the space I’m in will make an effort to exclude those people who don’t understand that some topics aren’t for them. I have seen, time and again, how any topic focusing on the issues of a specific gender will bring out hordes of people to scream about how this exclusion is somehow evil or wrong just because it excludes them.

Gender specific conversations draw out trolls like nothing else.

I’ve been assured by several friends that they will happily eat my portion, as long as I participate in the hunt.

Which is the sort of community-based, inclusive solution I like best.

I’ve been singing this a lot lately.

Misread this as Concerned Ape and became… Concerned. And also mad I didn’t know there was a convention.

There’s a lot to be said about it but anyone with a brain will agree to this, and simply this;

Good.

Don’t qualify it. Don’t turn it into yet another stale argument that will invariably link some grifter’s asinine manifesto. Everyone from every side can agree that this is a good thing. Let it be enough.

I haven’t moved to Linux because I work in healthcare and do 12 hour shifts and do not have the time needed to-

1. Wipe anything
2. Reinstall anything
3. Learn new things and finally
4. Use my computer.

The last one is the real pain. I’ll tell ya though, if I ever get to sit at my computer again I’ll learn how to unfuck it and I hope by then there’s some easy to access resources for learning a system!
