I decided to self harm by looking up the abbreviations HSTS and tttt. Turns out they were just referring to ideas I already knew about and had manifested in my internalized transphobia but without me knowing the abbreviations so I guess I failed at self harm lol

<Insert joke about HTTP Secure Transport Protocol that somehow doesn’t undermine the fact that I know the other definition>

Ah, didn’t notice the filter

It was:

I only had two. My first was rather uncreative:

The second one was simply “here for self harm” because honestly browsing that subreddit can be self harm at times.

fuckface is only a permissible pronoun for bottoms

Oh, maybe jerboa is unique

Here:

And here’s the reverse

Yeah, the world overall would be a much better place. It’s pretty much a trolley problem

When I’m out and about I always bring my headphones these days. If I start to get overstimulated I put on the headphones, listen to my comfort music, and close my eyes.

That’s how I do it anyway

I’ve never heard it described so simply, so succinctly, so beautifully

China has faced a large number of attempts at coups and color revolutions, I don’t blame them

Huh, I’m not familiar with that terminology. In my sphere of familiarity, “vector” mostly just means “list of numbers augmented with a dot product and matrix multiplication”. And the dimensionality of the space is just the number of values in the list, like (0,0,0,0) is a 4d vector.

My mental model of gender is basically a collection of points in an extremely high dimensional space, and we’re just saying “find the average man, find the average woman, and use these two vectors as basis vectors for a low dimensional space which we project the entire space into for that purpose of resolving the bet”

That tracks

The truth is that happiness isn’t cut and dry and translates differently between cultures. For Saudi Arabia in particular, if you’re Muslim and you’re a woman you’re most likely happy because of the free education, healthcare, full government funding for any university you want to go to in the world, strong job market that will actually put you into upper management, etc. Not to mention living a lifestyle many people would dream of, completely under the radar. There are reasons why most saudi students that go to the states to study only go for the fancy credential, most have no interest in settling in the US, which is why you don’t see a lot of Saudis despite Saudi Arabia and the US being “friends”. The rub is when it comes to non Saudis and non Muslims, who obviously aren’t happy, but make up a small enough fraction of the population such that the statistics don’t catch it

They only measured 32 countries in the first place so it wasn’t that scientific to begin with, but the next year they just removed the top two countries lol

We’ve got spicy numbing hot pot flavored chips, they’re 🔥 ngl

This is another issue trivially solved by communism - here in China we have 120W phone chargers that will charge your phone in 15 minutes. And if that wasn’t enough, you can easily rent a charged battery pack while out and about

Cryin’ shame tbh
