 growing up, my family were the most commonly marginalized group of people I
 can think of: outsiders
 
 we came to develop friendships, and we found some. But their grandparents
 didn't have any stories about us, so we were thought of less.
 
 and then we moved away.
 
 to the city, where my father had developed wanderlust.
 
 we lived in the suburbs just north-south of the east-west highway.
 
 it was different, but sorta the same. My parents wanted to give me more space
 to roam. on a farm homestead it's much more controlled but on a smaller scale.
 Then, in the city, the equivalent of that is either to live in the mountains
 or the barns, and both of those are a-typical experiences.
 
 difficult to start up business in the middle of the fields. most people just
 tend to themselves.
 
 except the people they talk to on their little computer.

 through wikipedia locally for portable data and historical accessing purposes.

 Some of my most wanderful times were when I lived in a gated community.          │
 My parents were dumb, and thought, as most people thought, that harm to a        │
 child can only come from outside of the community.                               │
 But they fell for the lies of property, where "community" means less of "a       │
 group of people who cares and tends for one another" the kind of which my        │
 parents had never truly known, and more like "this particular residential area   │
 on the map"                                                                      │
 which means I could walk around in this gated "community" where the gates are    │
 little more than security theatre for anyone who says "Hi I got a pizza here     │
 for this address which I found on google maps" or "hey I left my sweatshirt at   │
 my sister's house and it has my phone in it, ummmm no I don't remember which     │
 number her house is, nor do I remember her last name"                            │
 in those times, I developed a sense of freedom, caged as I was, that for most    │
 comes much later in their time.                                                  │

 republicans are upset because they think democrats are so mean
 
 they don't understand why we're so intense about this election... or the one
 before
 
 they don't ever really think about what losing democracy means
 
 "democracy... that's where we vote, right? That's a democrat thing, I don't
 really like their way of doing things. Whatever our way is, is probably
 better."
 
 meanwhile everyone has a friend from high school who ran off to the mountains
 to learn how to farm or hunt as a pack
 
 (with rifles and weed, of course)
 
 you can get a lot done if you just... spend your whole life working. Like most
 humans did for most of our existence.
 
 well, except for that period where we were the tribe of tribes. That was
 probably a highlight TBH because we mostly just chilled out, danced in public,
 ate blueberries and munched seeds... It was idyllic. Truly, the garden of
 eden. There was music and laughter in the air everywhere, in all places that
 humans did wander on earth.
 
 what a thing to aspire to.

 growing up, children's museums were my third place. like a civic participation   │

 perhaps not a while, but rather "with great difficulty"
 
 difficult things often take time, but not necessarily. We have the power of
 the internet now, something that our hundred thousand years or more of
 starvation lacked. we can coordinate on a scale that is beyond all reason - a
 scale that mirrors the development of the printing press in terms of it's
 relative magnitude.
 
 we have been using it to improve ourselves. I mean, the average teenager 50
 years ago would be considered an absolute ding-wad today, someone who lacks
 basic emotional intelligence and is completely at odds with what we value as a
 cohesive and heartfelt society. And yet they were better than those who came
 before them. Thus does posterity march forth, taking the world that was
 granted to them by their forefathers and stepping out into the unknown of the
 future with all the lessons they could bring with them.
 
 what happens when the lessons are infinitely transferable and recordable?

 I went to a trans meetup a couple days ago. It was invigorating. The first
 half we talked about hormones and bathrooms and politics and all the normal
 shit these meetups tend to do. I don't tend to go to them because it's the
 same stuff every time, and I'm over that. I've been out for a decade. I've
 shared what I need to share.
 
 Partway through I said "If you want to talk about how to bash back, meet me
 outside."
 
 people came.
 
 Be like me.
 
 You will forever vanquish your demons if you face them in earnest. I had
 stagefright and adrenaline but I took the lead, and we had a productive
 conversation. We need to have many more conversations.
 
 We have strategy. It is not set in stone, it is flexible, and able to be
 adjusted based on tactical successes and failures.
 
 tactics are what we need to discuss at in-person meetings.
 
 You are just one person. The people you know are more valuable than the value
 you personally provide.
 
 Think of yourself like a node to connect.

 Society has never been secure. Literally all someone has to do is place
 documents alleging that you sold all your shares or refinanced your mortgage
 or signed a new will and BAM suddenly the rug's pulled out from your feet. I
 don't get why people trust their neighbors so much? You don't know them!
 
 well, I guess it'd be hard to function as a society if you didn't. Sure would
 be nice if we had like, a communal Mastodon server run on public
 infrastructure owned only by the people who lived in the closest 70 houses.
 Sure would be nice if you could connect to one of like, 4 in your area. Then,
 if they each held communal events where they meet and hang out with each
 other. Only like, 2 or 3 though so you can get a solid grasp of what their
 culture's like.
 
 ... like imagine if every address had an IP, and every IP address had an HTML
 index. We could do whatever we wanted, especially if
especially if that HTML address accepted POST requests submitted by an application's procedural proceedings which are assigned to the action that is performed when pressing the "submit comment" button on their host web-page site html.index location server address.

 hi, so... yeah I'm a strange person
 
 it's tough to get to know me
 
 and this probably feels cringe to read
 
 but I once heard you should kill the part of you that cringes
 
 so... here's me
 
 I'm 
 
 ================================================== stack overflow
 ==============
 
 ... where was I? oh yes and THAT's when the nail went through the roof, and it
     scared the heck out of... wait, what was I talking about? OH yes so anyway
 
 I was born in the cool summer of 1864 - there was a rustling breeze that held a
 steady note for the entire evening, and into this world I arose. [awoke?]
 
 my mother held me but for a moment before I was whisked away to be cleaned and
 cared for. this was unusual for the time, as most mothers clutched their
 children to their breasts. But alas, I alone was spared her touch, and so I was
 cast (as if in bronze) as my own volition.
 
 as I had grown, I heard tales of distant times, and assumed they were places
 you
 could go. Then, when my time came to wander, I found nought of what I had grown
 most fonder - though I did find plenty else, besides.
 
 Instead, times are places we travel through, as a cripple might ride on a cart.
 across the sea, through lands of mystery, viewable only from the road. In 1864
 that's how other lands you'd come to know.
 
 As I travelled from place to place, it felt as if a stage had been cast, with a
 single actor or three illuminated as a spotlight. "Here, pay attention to me,
 I'm here for the story and the plot!" though often I'd glance around, and hear
 mostly my own thoughts, I grew to learn to appear.
 
 different themes, different tales, if you want to see a most marvelous scene,
 take a baby to Disney World and only pay attention to what they're looking at.
 
 My grandfather worked there, so in my first year or so I spend a LOT of time
 there. My parents were very dedicated to raising me, I appreciate every moment
 of it. Which... Is probably not a good thing to say on a transfemme server,
 oops I should delete that part
 [esc->k->k->k->0->v->shift(held)->G->$->"->*]
 
 also I should mention I'm stoned as fuck this is just what I do

 @user-570 
 
 I mostly spent my time on Reddit, which was much more isolating than IRC. I
 think I must have been drawn there because it felt like home - I was
 homeschooled on a farm, and Reddit kept me at the distance of an arm.
 
 it's funny, sometimes meeting a trans girl can make things "click". And
 sometimes being friends with one helps you work through things that you just
 can't tick
 
 [off your list of things to work on]
 
 habits you can kick? idk sometimes rhyming lies, and you have to break rhythm
 or pentameter or whatever.
 
 anyway I've always worn pants. I do dresses on special occasions, but dresses
 are hard(er) to ride a bike in. Plus, no pockets, and purses are easily
 stolen. At least with a pocket you can feel someone slip the exact same model
 as your phone into your pocket when you're least expecting.
 
 ... hypervigilance strikes again...
 
 I first transitioned in... 2014ish? I think? I don't really remember because I
 had so many more interesting things going on.
And the people around me were always more intersting to me than me.

 "doing too many drugs" is a traitorous act, abusive really, to your past self,

 or maybe your past self owes you a debt, for they never thought to think of
 you. What are you to aspire to if not the dreams of your past?
 
 and now you're here. wherever "here" is here...

 these precious stones of your kin"
 
 but he never got there, so they died with him, a thief.
 
 ... the end...
 
 (too final, I think - maybe we could spin it into a "part two"?)
 
 ah, I'll try I guess? dunno how. maybe he could wander the spirit world and
 find his traitorous body, the one that kept his soul as a home. Somewhere
 it'll turn up, and then he'll be ready and free from his roam...
