Some Notable Catchphrases Of 2013:

engineers dodging the lockheed martin and raytheon job offers like neo in the matrix

truly beautiful to see an outer space alien and an anti-alien racist come together in appreciation of kasane teto. i expect nothing less of teto. teto can stop wars

last night i had the craziest fucking dream

there was this island off the coast of los angeles called thelena iirc. (sidenote, i didnt know what it was called for the longest time. i pulled out my phone in the dream and used google maps and saw all of the city names and ferry routes) iirc it gained significant popularity and acted as a refuge for many people after some climate disaster killed a lot of the usa, but i also remember the usa being bustling, so thats a continuity error in my dream. the other part of thelena was as a massive experiment by the united states government, as they wanted to see if they should switch the usa over to a socialist nation, as well as switch over to public transit/walkable cities because thelena was relatively small (iirc around the size of los angeles), and was isolated from the mainland, it was a perfect testing ground.

unsurprisingly, thelena socially blew up, with many thousands of people migrating to it, and being a hub for scientific and technological advancement, all in perfect harmony with nature

*sigh* i wish thelena was real

also, some whacky shit happened in that dream.

- there was a pizza hut on thelena and one of the toppings was whole brains

- i had a derelict boeing 737 with broken cockpit windows which i flew around in and fucked around with

- i fought ganondorf (from the legend of zelda) but with horse legs at the beginning of the dream

- one of the ways you can tell if you're in a dream is by noticing text, and if its all weird and moves due to the fact that your brain cant render text, you are in a dream. my brain just didnt do this. thats how i knew it was called thelena (although i might have forgot the exact spelling)

- my brain somehow almost perfectly rendered google maps on my phone? there were a few graphical glitches with nonexistent islands filling up ocean bays and it looked really weird, but other than that my brain perfectly rendered google maps text, zoom, roads, and ferry routes

THIS EXACTLY!!! also for sensory stuff too. like are you hiking and absolutely miserable because you hate the way that sweat and dirt feels on your skin? turn off that sensation until you're ready

it's about full and total control. and for me, i think it'd be pretty cool to wrench on myself, too

Sometimes, I want to be a robot girl. Outside of the context of kink, I mean, which is what I largely see on this site. I mean the kinky stuff, too, but just what the ramifications of being a machine could be intrigue me a lot.

Robot girl who can temporarily disable emotions that aren't useful or socially appropriate.

Robot girl who can power off when she's overwhelmed.

Robot girl who can patch her missing knowledge about social situations and rules.

Robot girl who can change her body at will.

Robot girl who shows you her operating system because she wants you to know her. Really, really, know her.

Robot girl connected to a whole network of other robot girls so that she never feels alone.

I just want to be robot girl.

people often ask me; "Foone, you're an amateur physical media historian, when is it spelled disc, and when is it disk?"

Well it's simple! Discs grow down from the ceiling, and disks grow up from the floor.

saying 'there have been trans people as long as there have been people' is, while i think well-intentioned, wrong (and a bit silly). gender itself is a socially-constructed system, and that is the key fact for the entire transgender movement. there is no sensible understanding of transgender existence without the context of a system of social gender. there have been transgender people as long as there has been gender - because it is a fundamentally arbitrary system - but that is not the same thing as 'as long as there have been people'. people existed without the social system of gender for a long time, it is not an inherent trait of humans - and arguing otherwise is, as well as simply being wrong, not something that really benefits the transgender movement

enough of this "androids who dream of being human" shtick. more androids who love being androids, and are lowkey sorry for humans bc that shit sounds exhausting

u guys were like "ohh no more trance" so I decided instead to make more trance and make it even louder and heavier

Maybe I should embrace the robotgirl vibe and make myself an ordered list of priorities as a decision tree. And then when I am struggling I can look at it and try to use it to decide on a better course of action.
