 yep... I think they must stay in blind-people-mostly instances. surely they
 must, right? where else would they be? using screen-readers and seeming

 why would I want other people using my computer? They don't know how to use my
 computer! They might break something or mess something up or automatically
 read/edit my files that are stored in standard locations through the usage of
 a script which automagically scans and ransomwares machines on the internet
 who store their files in specific standardized locations! no thank you.

 sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
 that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
 could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
 drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
 
 something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
 image that could be edited.

 blend in. also because I've been conditioned by the people who I talk to about

 keep in mind...
 
 trump is not their endgame.
 
 what is he doing?
 
 sabotaging our institutions without warrant or respite
 
 prepare for foes that would benefit from degraded institutions.
 
 who's right when nobody controls the truth?
 
 were they ever truly right?

Finally, trying to pivot towards Pacific northwestern native perennial plants (and self-seeding annuals) for food, medicine, and material; they're much more adapted to this region as far as sunlight, moisture, bungalow, microbial, avian, insect partner, and soil types are concerned, and that's not only take less work now to instigate and tend, but are much more equipped to handle the fungal infections, droughts, genetic biodiversity collapses, and fluctuating climates that are inbound.  the BRIT ethnobotany database is helpful in that regard, and given that it's based out of Texas and has gynecological herbs, it would be a really good idea for some of the tech queers in our community to duplicate a redundancy of it.

 they should be available for them if they need them, in like... a folder or

 more friction like that keeps people away from being secure.

 I have no idea if I'm going to post all of these. I wrote all of them in ~2
 hours, with maybe 3 or four being added as I was working on the production
 elements after the initial bingewrite.
 
 I also added a bit of context, or modified some of them that felt too cursed
 or otherwise unwieldy. Sometimes I got distracted and needed to come back and
 finish, and in those cases I only added a sentence or two because it's like
 "oh, where was I going with that? I remember what was next, but I don't know
 the further..."
 
 ... I think I might go for another. Wish me luck.

 I have intrusive thoughts almost constantly that take over my train of thought
 and make it difficult to focus. Like suddenly I'm thinking about something
 completely different, and I realize no, it wasn't suddenly, I actually just
 stood there and thought
 
 and then I think "what was I thinking again?" sometimes when I write these
 strange uncontrollable spirals down it makes poetry. Which is kinda neat I
 guess. Sometimes I just wonder about how DNS can be a singular point of
 failure in our networking infrastructure or whatever haha

 someone once told me that anything with a battery is a bomb if you hit it with
 just the right kind of radiation. or maybe he said 5g waves or electromagnetic
 pulse or... actually he didn't say at all. he just said batteries are bombs. I
 hope he's doing okay, he could have killed me like, 15 times but he didn't. so
 I guess that means he likes me? I hope he's doing okay.

 I usually just repost it and say something like: [stolen from reddit] or
 [stolen from one of my followers who didn't write any alt text]
 
 that way if they ever come across your post they'll know what it feels like to
 have a post stolen from them. Like how a blind person, happy to hear-read what
 they originally posted, but aggrieved from the conversation by their lack of
 alt-textual information, might feel stolen from if they happened across that
 originally posted alt-textless post.
 
 there are more blind people that use mastodon than queer people. At least,
 that's what I once heard. Dunno if it's true.

 if you haven't spend hours wondering if you're god, the antichrist, a
 cognitohazard, the future president of the world, a target of aliens / the
 CIA, or any other number of common delusions... then congratulations you're
 probably not crazy
 
 but odds are you aren't magic, either.
 
 ... ehhhh "wonder" is a strong word, more like "know, trust, and believe"
 
 much better to be a witch I believe, someone with the "teehee" kind of magic
 than someone compelled to destroy humanity through the reactions of others to
 the actions of the self that are impossible to resist or fully control.
 
 BRB I'm going to leave my apartment to get groceries, leaving my door unlocked
 because that's what I always do, surely it'll be empty when I return. Surely.

 when you type the letters they slowly fade in on the other person's screen
 
 like miniature explosions from layers of gunpowder
 
 forming letters in the sky
 
 anyway the text would "burn" into existence slowly and you had time after
 typing
 your words to go back and edit them but also whatever you said was semi
 permanent. Thus forcing a smooth and ideal progression toward thinking about
 the things you say.
 
 Also separate idea but it'd be neat if there was like... a show or something
 that just recorded a person's desktop as they fucked around on the internet.
 Call it... ambient desktopping. It'd look a little like those coding twitch
 streams that just slowly update over time. Idk it's kinda cool

 dear people watching my screen:
 
 if you're so disturbed by what I'm looking at, then why do you bother watching?
 
 ... oh right, you think I'm a danger to the membranum. Well... sucks to be you
 then.

 people say that kind of thing when they feel alone. maybe "wake up" is another

 They will gladly live in a tent under an overpass cooking rats on a wire
 hanger so long as you can guarantee that black/brown/LGBTQs don't have a tent,
 rat, or wire hanger.
 
 I'd almost agree, except strike "have" and replace it with "need"
