In complete seriousness, they need to make laws about ads that say they can take no more than one, maybe two, clicks/taps to close/skip. No more "wait 10 seconds until you can skip the video, wait 10 seconds until you can skip the fake playable ad, wait 5 seconds until you can close the 'download now' overlay, puts up a half-screen in-app appstore pop-up (which at least you can close immediately)." This should literally be illegal to do.

I spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about Life Post Transformation, and one thing I think about a lot is an early keyboard design that was just five keys, and you would chord on them to make letters. I think a big one of those would be usable with silly paws probably. Or just like, a big stenography keyboard :P
Oh i love those types of keyboards!! that is a really fun idea! im kind of starting to want to draw this hypothetical office plush..

Here's the thing: imagine if we fixed the housing market, so that the price of housing only increased to match inflation. That would be great, right? Except, homeowners typically spend $2000-$10000 per year on maintenance. So homeownership would go from an investment to an endless money pit, just like renting. The idea of a house as an investment, a house as a way to build wealth, requires that housing prices increase faster than inflation forever, which means that the burden of housing costs on working people must keep increasing forever, and the number of homeless people must keep increasing forever.
The housing crisis isn't just a result of greedy landlords and investors. It's an inevitable result of social policies that encourage people to treat their houses as in investment. Because once a homeowner internalizes the idea that their financial future depends on housing prices going up, they start favoring policies (such as NIMBYism) that make housing prices go up.
Conversely, if we want to end homelessness for good, we need to accept that housing is someone we'll all have to continuously pour resources into, because buildings are complex physical objects that break a lot.

I see your "Laios is trans" but that dude is THE most apathetically agender person on the planet. Laios does not have time for gender. Laios does not even HAVE a gender identity, he removed it to make room for more Monster Facts.

growing up my mom would tell me, “don’t play with the dogs, their gonna think that your a dog too and not listen or respect you like they do humans!”
and well- my dogs understand that im not a human. they understand that im one of them. we chase each other and cuddle in a dog pile. they understand, always have.
that’s why they don’t respect me like a human, they respect me like a dog.

Neurodivergence is fucking wild because people can make literal death threats to my face and I feel almost nothing but if someone slams a door in my house I have a panic attack.
