  • Prior to my coming out to myself, I was SA’d by a woman after being drugged.

    The many, many mental struggles that followed brought me to the basic realization that everybody, well, maybe not lizardpeople, but the rest of us all bleed if somebody just shot us. Sure, I was drugged, so it helped with feeling weak at being assaulted, but even if I hadn’t been drugged, it wouldn’t have made it any more my fault. Im not saying like “if she had a gun you’d still…”

    Anyone can be convinced by a horrible person that they won’t be safe unless they do something they don’t want to do. Gender, Chromosomes, Sexuality have no effect on that. -Full stop-











  • Sometimes, actually kinda often, people come to you who know the costs of your materials pretty accurately. “I used to own a…” and “My industry uses that too, and it…” or any info regarding your costs.

    Almost always those phrases are followed by some level of attempt to lower your prices.

    Don’t, even at the start, even if its family. You don’t even have to explain it to them if you don’t like confrontation.

    If they know it so well, they also know why your pricing is the way it is, and what they’d like you do is bend over.

    Also, relatedly, inflation always sucks, and your pricing, if fair, reflecting that will be anticipated. Trying to remain at the same price when your costs really change isn’t good business. For something like filament, idk if wholesale prices fluctuate or just go up, so leaving some space if the former so you can avoid constantly updating your pricing is cool too. For a business I used to own, I just priced factoring my gas pricing a half a dollar more than the start of the year’s, and rarely had to adjust it within a year.




  • Pellet guns are harmful and maybe deadly to us, but we’re soft. Only an american would be so gun minded but insufficiently informed to think that nobody has any guns, especially the hunting rifle you’d need, powerfully enough to do anything other than crack a lense if you’re lucky. The gun propaganda here doesn’t want to share than most europeans are able to responsibly own certain firearms if they want to meet the requirements.




  • Wait… other than cook any bird or animal that might land inside, what would this do? I thought household microwaves were nowhere near capable of doing anything at any distance.

    I’d just go to the local print shop and have the most disturbing image put onto some large poster. Like a Hi-Res close up of a butthole with some form of issues.
