DISGUSTING!!!!!

No wonder the people who volunteer to use themselves as human shields to protect me from misogyny on the internet don't feel safe being themselves around me.

Apologies for slurping my coffee while I wake up.

Okay, but could you please just let me know what I do wrong? I don't understand. I want to be your friend.

I don't DO know how to switch from freenode to different irc servers now!

I don't know enough about the privacy issues with Discord to adequately assess if it might be appropriate for my unique set of circumstances but I'm pretty sure it isn't. am a bit more security/privacy conscious than the average duck, but it's more of a hobby than actually trying to protect myself from the inevitable consequences of serious activism.

We'll figure it out.

I'm just glad to be able to chat or lurk. I kind of need friendly voices at random times right now.

Thank you for sharing.

I appreciate your post very much but I'm new to the community and I have a bad habit of talking too much.

Of course it's okay. Why wouldn't it be? Why would anyone want to hang out with transphobic homophobes who have something against furries?

Maybe I just don't understand the world, but pleased to meet you anyway.

No, you are a fellow elderly internet user, even though my oldest child is older than you. We are a minority and we stick together.

I have hair issues too and would love to share what we can come up with. Mine is just extremely thin all over because I'm AFAB and that's how the gene for male pattern baldness exhibits itself in this kind of body.

My body disintegrated so fast that I'm just not comfortable in my own skin and I don't recognize myself any more. I know it's hard, but self-care is important.

What are these kids going to do without us? I know they want to haul us both off to Treblinka, but it's not in their best interest.

I am not more equal than you. We're in this together. Thank you for having the courage to be "out" as a fellow Senior Digital Citizen.

Hi Overbite.

Do you have any issues with functionality? I'm almost completely dependant on my blender and it sucks donkey droppings.

Not that society doesn't suck anyway even if you aren't in the crosshairs.

At least we don't look like freaks:

if that's any consolation.

Stay safe; it's not your fault but we are vulnerable and subject to hate crimes.

Are you fond of bagpipes? I know how to make pancakes.

I'm glad. They seem to have chased most of us off the internet awhile back so I tend to assume I am among 20-30somethings unless informed otherwise. I'm not 65 yet so still a baby when it comes to age and aging issues, but it sure has happened fast.

My body and mind used to feel indestructable. I used to want to be some sort of a badass superhero.

When did I become an easy mark and a professional victim?

I didn't even notice. It was like that frog in boiling water thing.

Thank you. I haven't had as much time to lurk yet as I probably should before posting something, but it looks like a great community and just what I need right now.
