@nprofile1q... THIS! I am one of the people who's brain actually doesn't have the power to imagine a full scene like that, one of the people that his tech might try to market to. But, nonfiction though this is, it connected with me. This is actual fucking writing, the kind a machine can't do. I felt the emotional tides of it. I can't smell the scents and feel the textures you describe, my imagination can't override my senses even at the smallest level, but I can feel the current of this. It's human like nothing else can ever be.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... Ah, good. I've been using alt+e for ages anyway but I didn't actually know about delete.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... On WIndows 10 I always switch to the details tab and set update speed to paused, does that still work in 11? The new processes view is horrendous and has too much spurious information. Also, try pressing delete?

@nprofile1q... Is Signal considered big tech? Figure end-to-end encrypted messaging groups would help a lot with organizing stuff like this, at least on smaller scale.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... Friend of mine recently recommend what I think are called pharmacogenetic tests. Basically you give them a DNA sample and they send it off to a lab, which is able to use it and some other chemical markers to determine how different meds will react with you, identifying personal side effects and how exactly your chemistry will respond to it. Which is like wait, if they could do this, why aren't they always doing this instead of playing medication roulette? Is it just too new?

@nprofile1q... I always called that meh. And when people would ask me how I am and I'd respond with meh, they always assumed it was bad. And I'd respond with no, it's like, on a scale of -10 to 10, I'm 0. Dead center. Neutral. I feel nothing yet, I need something to make me feel something. Effectively the baseline is an absence of any feeling we really have a label for, it has to be introduced. I don't just walk around happy all the time, nor, thankfully, do I walk around sad all the time, which is depression I think.

@npub1h9g2a... I love you too, and I'm glad you see me that way. You're the completion I never thought I'd find, and even as I pour myself out to help heal you we are both better for it.

@npub1h9g2a... Don't let unreasonable societal expectations with no basis in *your* reality dictate your self-worth

@npub1h9g2a... Fucking felt, on my 22nd birthday I was just like, meh, it's just another day. Someone asked do you feel any older? Not yet.

@npub1h9g2a... It actually makes me sad that I'm, like, the only man you've met thus far that is this, well, honest and good, but it also makes me happy because I have you now.
