@nyx @unmind @rowb1t @swampwitch straightedge ruined the reputation of the whole punk subculture in so many high schools in the 2000s lmao

@nyx 😖 look sometimes it’s hard to tell when you’re being genuinely schizo
re: suicide, serious, this stuff does matter
@fedilore @dangerdyke @FediDrama Jai was a guy until repeatedly going after trans women to cancel them and then suddenly transitioned when people said it was transmisogyny
@nyx If it makes you feel better, both PPB and MCSO don’t have any helicopters.
re: reading not the news, this one is actually long
Mahayana are famously critical of Theravada for being self-absorbed! Generally if you’re looking for *the* individualist religion east of the Alps, it’s gonna be a Theravada school of thought. The focus on individual cultivation and enlightenment for its own sake is the basis of Theravada and is criticized as selfish or at the very least, narrow. The Pali Canon is so huge that you can find just about any argument if you look long enough, though.
@Casssdreams never doubt yourself
@dangerdyke @unmind @nyx wait… bad things can happen AFTER transitioning!?

@0utside0utsider @hayley @nyx when I was a Buddhist for a few years I really dove into the history and suttas and there was a lot of individualist philosophy in the late Vedic/Second Urbanization period. I saw more references to untranslated works than I saw translated or preserved works, though. But much of it still resides in the Pali Canon.
@0utside0utsider have you considered that Adorno *was* the evil twin?
@nyx @rowb1t I was back in the zone. It was the Obama Administration again and I was downloading whole discographies. I even replaced iTunes, which I had used to manage music since 2007. After ten years in the spotify wilderness I had come back home.
The issue was my old piracy sources all eventually died and I literally didn’t know about soulseek until now. I thought it was like last.fm and was a music social media site…
@dangerdyke @nyx @unmind true I’m bisexual cuz of it
@nyx how interesting… I also go to another instance. Do I know her?
@dangerdyke yeah but instead of actually designing characters they’re like “hey can you do an Amano of this” and he does it
@vriska look, beyond has a really good point about the fascistic settler colonial tendencies of cottage core and how there was a meme about making ethnostates in New Horizons…
