All my life I've assumed the perennial complaints about men who couldn't find her clit were valid, but basically due to male ignorance, sexual shame, or not liking women enough to care about their pleasure.

Yesterday on ErosBlog, a bisexual woman who says well actually, some clits are actually super hard to find!

25 years of using the internet and search engines to find out and know things (roughly, 1998 through 2023) was a pretty good run, I guess. Now that it's all dying in a ball of hellfire, I can't wait to find out what's going to replace it -- or if knowing things is just OVER now.

If business and commerce drags academia along with it into the hellscape future of not knowing things at automated scale, I'm sure a few stubborn wizards will go back to knowing things artisanally, by hand, on paper.

@Flux There are LOTS of places, especially in the business world, where "I need an extremely low-effort way to generate a shiny thing that looks like a very plausible answer to X" is a common circumstance, and so a tool to do that is super handy. But of course most of the use cases involve bullshittery. People who care about marketing and pleasing higher management will love the tool; people who care about truth and understanding will have very little use for it, or indeed, sourest disdain.

@aurochs Sometimes it seems like scatology is the only safe realm of cussing! Shit-eating shitheads, the lot of them.

@aurochs I think we have to worry about not stepping on each other's faces during the struggle, honestly.

@aurochs Well, let's not make too much out of my moment of disgruntlement. I'm not saying "whoops, let's pause the campaign against the rise of fascism and focus instead on restructuring the linguistics of Europe to lessen the anti-sexwork bias built into its cultural bones." 😃 I'm just expressing regret that a fun and wholesome-looking cross-cultural antifa meme turns out (on careful inspection) not to be something I can sing in good conscience.

I edit-updated this post with the MP3 of the TikTok sound in question, which is not something I previously knew how to do. But TikTok at this point must be considered ephemeral, so.

Here's the link, which also lets you see a list of TikToks that have used the sound. https://www.tiktok.com/music/Originalton-7239769145163287322

I am disgruntled.

Last few days, it has become trendy on American TikTok to show opposition to the rise of fascism in America by using a short musical phrase in German language that I assume is or was a stadium chant. We were told it means "every Nazi is a son of a bitch" but the operative word is "hurensohn" or whore's son.

Awesome. Great. Way to practice intersectionality! Show your distaste for nazis by shitting on sex workers! Hoorah!

What made me fall apart with helpless giggling today? The attractive woman on Tiktok who responded to "you'd be a lot prettier if you got rid of your septum piercing" with "you're probably not going to be a big fan of of my cock, then, either."

As near as I can tell, there's never a justification for unsolicited critiques of a stranger's paint, piercings, or packaging. Fuck those dudes, buncha assholes anyway.

All over the US government right now we hear rumors like this one, of the NSA forced to delete every doc in its internal systems that mentions privilege escalation attacks because the Grand Stupids In Charge won't allow the word "privilege" on any government server:

Every time I see shit like this, my mind returns to the backstory of Charles Stross's (@cstross) Glasshouse: history a mostly-missing muddled mystery after waves of deletions in centuries of censorship wars.

I will be a lot more outraged about the Chinese LLM that won't talk about Tiananmen Square when Google's Gemini grasps firmly aholt of its balls long enough to answer a question about Melania Trump's immigration status.

While reading today's column by Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic) the little literacy engine that reads words aloud to me in my head bounced HARD off the stack of fricatives in the word "enshittificatory" and then, like the driver of a monster truck at a demolition derby, backed up and revved the engine and hit that word AGAIN with greater speed/force, and then a THIRD time before finally bouncing over the obstruction and (shouting "Whee, that was fun!") powering onward.

@NewtonMark @Unixbigot re "killed while spearfishing in shark attack"

Not to critique anybody's fun, but I grew up in grizzly bear country and came away with the attitude that if a person takes weapons in hand and goes out hunting in the territory of apex predators, that's a very special kind of choice. Resulting injuries or deaths should probably be tracked for statistical purposes, but not in the "wild animal attacks" statistics.

Is there a category for "fucked around, found out?"

Hey, this is a smart audience, so.

Indulge my fantasy that there might be a 3D printer under my tree. (There isn't.)

Assume I've never touched a piece of CAD or 3D modeling software, but I yearn to learn.

Know that I am loathe to spend time learning commercial or web tools, even free ones. I am a FOSS bigot.

What free open source tools (ideally, ones with attached communities) should I be looking at?

And what are some good "learning for the novice" resources?

Boosts welcome.

Thanks!

@fredbrooker

No.

I reject that entirely.

On top of the fact that phrasings like "little people" are destructive of the solidarity that we're all gonna need to survive, it's just factually incorrect.

"Little people" aren't capable of assaulting public interest institutions like the Archive and Wikipedia. That takes the concentrated malice of super-wealthy individuals.

If you thought the publishing industry trying to take down the Internet Archive was bad, and now you're watching Elon Musk attacking Wikipedia:

Billionaires are why we can't have anything nice.

Even when we do it ourselves, we can't have it. If it helps us learn, understand, think, reason, or argue, they don't want that for us.

They will kill it.

Is there a guillotine smiley? There needs to be a guillotine smiley.

Your infrequent reminder that corporate status is a gift that we the people give to wealthy investors for their convenience and protection, under an ancient belief that society as a whole will benefit.

No one has a right to corporate status. It can be withdrawn at any time by we-the-people acting through our legislatures.

If corporations do not serve us, we can do away with them.

@hagen @tante It's pretty normal for a word to have a narrow technical meaning and a much broader popular usage that is gleefully adopted by people who do not know or never understood the narrow technical sense of the word.

Say whatever else you will about the modern world, but never think we take our fancy pool-shootin' billiards tricks as seriously as we used to!

PS: I'd love to live in a world in which all the porn on Mastodon had alt-texts as detailed as this one I just wrote.

#Pool #Pussy #Trick #PoolTrick #Billiards #SpreadPussy #TrickShot #Porn #VintagePorn #PubicHair #Bush #Blonde #Brunette #BlondeBush #Vintage #Stockings #Hoisery #Lingerie #BlackLace #1970s

I'd also like all the porn shared on here to be ATTRIBUTED to the best ability of the people posting it, but that's an old mania of mine and I've long since made peace with the fact that most people don't share it or give even a tiny fuck about it.

As for the alt descriptions, I have OK vision but I'm still amazed how often I need (want) alt text to help me puzzle out WTAF I'm looking at. Being somewhat face-blind and color vision impaired no doubt contributes to that.
