Looking at it from a quantum field perspective, pretty much. If the only interactions are through gravity then the underlying field’s evolution can’t be influenced by anything else, I have no real idea what the implications of that would be because we don’t have a QFT for gravity.

Got any recommendations for a music player?

I’ve paid for symfonium and love it tbh, it works really well, has great customizability and the offlining of favourited albums is so so nice. It has an internal download cache, but it can also export files to your downloads folder the way jellyfin does at the moment. My only gripe is that it’s not FOSS.

Yo Mr Inbetween is awesome, my boyfriend got me to watch it with him way back when we started dating

I once spent an entire evening removing nazi homophobic posters from my uni campus, wheat paste fucking sucks to get off even with water. I had a spray bottle with me and for most of them I had to just scratch off the worst parts and leave them up.

The phrase “we aren’t free until we’re all free” applies to animals as much as humans, and thinking otherwise is straight up bigotry. That so few extend leftist thought to the rest of the living world is a travesty, if you’ve managed to come around to leftist thinking then you’ve absolutely been capable of challenging your pre-conceived biases and this is just another step in that process.

All that said, I’m not one to judge people for not agreeing with this. It took me an exceptionally long time and the right circumstances to finally reassess my reasoning and to realise it was absurdly flawed, hypocritical and informed by propaganda.

I’ve just recently started on meds and now not eating is a significantly more common problem, worst of all the shakes are gone too so I keep going all day on nothing.

Well I’m being a little deceptive for the joke of course, but he just felt like Jesus was sitting in the chair and then talked to the invisible Jesus.

The guy ended up doing a bunch of stuff at my highschool and which really bugged me because he only ever had surface level religious phrases to say (motivational speaker kinda stuff but with more Jesus) that glossed over some really big issues we were all facing at the time.

Ah yeah “all atheists just hate god,” I forgot that was a thing. Could be the case, it was a long time ago

I once met a guy who became a priest because he had a religious experience while talking to a chair.

The weirdest one I ever got was in highschool, someone said “how can you not believe in god, god is love” and I still don’t understand how that’s meant to be an argument.

It would be easier and faster to just train it on the stuff you want it to output. There are hundreds of billions of weights in models like gpt, and no one really knows what any individual one does.

We have an RRFM, but I’ve never actually made it out to it before. The only interesting thing I know is that they run bike repair workshops as part of it

Trans inclusive radical misogyny

Personally I don’t, I can see someone not hating that kind of humour as much as me thinking it’s funny, in which case I guess it would be.

Similar experience from my mum at first, but I guess after talking to me and my brother while we both go for assessments she finally accepted she most likely has ADHD too lol

But yeah, she’s a nurse who doesn’t think I should take medicine to make my life easier, just cause.

Yes! Omg I’m glad it’s not just me, it’s so annoying that I can’t really drink any of the beers I used to love.

I’m just being silly, but the translation here is something like:

We all understand gender in our own unique way, based on a shared understanding of some broader concept

Changing our understanding and relationship to gender as a concept is possible, and may lead to you realising your own gender was something other than what you’d previously assumed.

The gender binary is ass.

Gender is expressed as an N dimensional vector in the tangent space at a point on a larger N dimensional pseudo-Riemannian gender manifold.

Travelling on a path through this manifold can act to rotate your gender identity once you arrive at a new point so be careful where you step, some paths are known to crack eggs.

Mapping the manifold onto a 2D socially constructed gender Cartesian plane introduces singular points and so is considered a dangerous and largely useless construction.

That’s a more complete mnemonic than the one I knew

When the mites come up the tights come down

1: I’ve taken the metro to get groceries loads of times

2: Trams

Oooh so that’s what inattentive is. I’m getting assessed in a week or so and for the pre-session questionnaire I was wondering what it meant if I didn’t have any of the “driven by a motor” symptoms.

I got called lazy and sensitive all the time too.

Joining any group your comfortable with, as others have said, is the #1.

One you can do from home is just start sending money to mutual aid requests you see on insta or wherever. Make it a weekly thing even if it’s just a couple of dollars. There are also plenty of groups that operate mainly online, though they tend to be harder to get into for security reasons.

And honestly, being generally nice to random people is underrated. Never doubt how much better you can make a stranger’s day by giving them a smile. Similarly, some of the best support I get is just from chatting with people, I’ve had so many crap days completely turned around because we had a seemingly meaningless conversation. I guess we’re social creatures after all, so it’s not too surprising.
