#introduction

Hey everybody! I've been lurking for a while so it's about time I said hello. Name's Emerson, they/them, 25, USA.

I took a job in pharmatech to pay the bills and now I struggle with ethical dilemmas on the daily. In my free time I'm usually running tabletop RPGs, playing music, listening to podcasts, reading, biking, crafting, or taking care of my elder doggo.

Feel free to reach out and say hello. I love making new friends and helping my communities grow and thrive.

Hello I have 20+ years of SRE/DevOps/Sysadmin and programming experience. Do you know an appropriate job for me for around 30 hours a week? Are you hiring? DM me!

Thanks!

Ever notice how whenever a Nazi gets banned, some libertarian has some shit to say?

But a furry gets banned for being a furry, or furries have the gall to have an NSFW chat room somewhere and it gets banned... nothing but crickets?

When was the last time you heard the ACLU standing up for a furry con being banned?

When was the last time you heard the EFF coming to the aid of a furry site being taken down?

Never, because to them, a Nazi is more respectable than a furry, and easier to defend politically.

You can have a mental illness AND a healthy relationship.

Let's stop thinking that all relationship are doomed because you have a mental illness(es).

Interesting that the one skill that is most useful for you as an adult is the one skill that gets drilled out of you when you're younger.

The skill of saying "no".

No, I'm not doing this to myself.

No, I'm reframing how I'm thinking about this.

No, I will not go along with this.

Sure, when a kid is defiantly telling you no because they don't want to that's one thing, but maybe, just maybe, saying no isn't such a bad thing after all.
