OK so fun fact the reason imperial units seems so weird when they jump from 3 feet to a yard then 1760 yards to a mile is cuz there's a bunch of obscure middle-units we don't use anymore.
12 inches is a foot 3 feet is a yard 22 yards is a chain 10 chains is a furlong 8 furlongs is a mile 3 miles is a league
still arbitrary af but at least it's not skipping from 3 to over a thousand lol
also why an acre is 43560 square feet. Actually meant to be 1 furlong x 1 chain (still weird!!)

It's a tradition at my job that whoever is stationed where I am has to write punny jokes on this whiteboard so here's today's. Unsure if any of my co-workers will get it lol
i think thesis though is less about the choices of people who don't identify as trans but feel alienated from their assigned genders; but rather that all of us should be more accepting of this kind of fluidity. of people using varying pronouns or terms for themselves that don't line up with "transitioning in a direction." that accepting non-binaryness is also recognizing that almost being fluid with what we might call cis gay people
I'm 91% of the way to my goal of raising $2000 for the Pioneer Valley Workers Center, an organization that fights capitalism, fights for workers, & fights for undocumented families in Western Massachusetts; the most impoverished region in MA. We do everything from hassling state legislatures for anti-wage theft laws, a 24/7 support hotline for undocumented people facing deportation, vigils and rallies, to bail & barricading construction on the local ICE office.
As many of you know for the past year I've been an active activist working with the Pioneer Valley Workers Center to combat ICE actions and worker abuse in Western Massachusetts. This is the organization I got arrested with blocking the ICE office expansion!
It's our end-of-year fundraising campaign to raise our general operating funds. If you've ever wanted to support me then please support the PVWC! Donate at the link below!
@Trev at some point i realized that trying to be authentic too hard was inauthentic to my genuine natural tendency to be inauthentic to some degree. Like being authentic was also associated with attributes that "authentic" people express so then in my attempts to be "authentic" i was just trying to be like other people who are "authentic" and ended up leaving behind genuine parts of myself that i just don't associate with the image of "authenticity" but which are actually authentic to my authentic self
i rly like the firefox screenshots feature i didn't think i would use it cuz i already have the windows Snipping Tool but the firefox one lets you screen cap an entire page even if it doesn't all fit on your screen and it auto-highlights by web element which is really cool
Concept: retuning instruments based on tweaked versions of those mnenomics to remember the order of notes
Like EGDDC (every good dog deserves cuddling) and then you change your B3 key to be another D and your F3 key to be a C3 and then you just play sheet music as if those weren't changed or Maybe write new songs
