All references to black cats in anything of mine are referring to the beautiful creature in my profile pic, the other beautiful creature not in my profile pic, the one who wanders by expecting me to feed her, etc. I hadn't even heard of the APT group until I'd had the handles for a year!

the difference between how I get treated (acting exactly the same) when I go the same places wearing grungy jean shorts and a crop top, versus wearing a dress and sandals, is bloody hilarious

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry @kaoudis But damned easy to hack this way. I legit have outfits that are similar but the material/price point is different for when I want to shift perceptions in a particular direction.

(A dress gets a very different reaction in nice wool than approximately the same dress in cheaper polyester. Sometimes I'll do the same mid-range dress but vary only the shoe quality to see who's watching for that.)

What, PRECISELY, is the point of having relief/aid programs if you wait three months to even PROCESS things AND THEN ARE OUT OF THE OFFICE FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER DEMANDING PROOF SOMEONE USED TO HAVE A JOB?!?!!?

@jerry Their pissing around means that I'm utterly fucked. And I CANNOT ask more help. The GFM was... jawdropping, amazing, and the end of the line.

Okay so this is like the last week I have. Car's out of the shop the 29th. I have this week to get the whole "wrest title and registration from my old state and into my new" thing done.

I can't do it without crossing the finish line with this, and if I can't then everything before it was for nothing.

68% of the way there. PLEASE.

How does one ask someone they'd like to be friends with to hang out?

Slight difficulty, without it sounding like asking on a date.

I just... want to hang out and make friends with someone.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I tried something like that and it.... didn't work.

I think there's something wrong with me.

Being an admin of a large-ish instance has been quite an eye opening experience into how awful some people are towards trans people. I really don’t understand the energy they put into hating people.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I've wondered if it's because they are angry at those who have the courage they themselves don't.

@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

Something's wrong and I don't know what. I can't identify it. But something is WRONG.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry Best way I can describe it, yeah. Whatever it is, it's Wrong enough that I'm almost nauseous and the cats are on edge as well.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry Actually that's very very apt -- anything on the news?

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry Might be localized to me. The damned alert just says "WARNING" with no further information.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry Okay, it's not just me and it is something local, the birds around here are on edge.

catbailey,
@catbailey@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry Amusingly enough the pressure DID drop, but it seems unrelated... And I tend to agree ;-)

Request: before accusing your instance admin of shadow banning you, or of trying to spy on you, or of trying to install malware in your browser, or of deleting your posts, please take a moment to try a "normal" browser that doesn't have all the security and privacy gunk.

thx
