We have a very clean coastline in Canada. Perfectly straight.

Wtf? No. Fuck all the way off.

I’ve worked on the phone too and it wore on me too. But I guess I just don’t think of calls with friends or family as being on the same level as calls with customers?

My mom says I’m cool.

Yeah, pretty good. You?

I never said one should refuse texting, I said one shouldn’t refuse calling. And as for my technological aptitude, I think I do quite well. But go off.

I mean, I’m not a programmer or anything like that but I can be comfortable with just about any OS you put in front of me with minimal time to familiarize - though admittedly I’m most comfortable with any of numerous flavours of Linux desktop/Android, and least enthused about using Windows. I 've got a lot of practice problem-solving though nowadays that seems to be less and less frequent.

I’m not great at touch typing as I have a tremor, but thankfully I have friends who know they can text me but I’m likely to call them back if I need to reply in any depth. On a physical keyboard my tremor doesn’t really interfere with my ability to type though; actually I enjoy typing on a physical keyboard and recently upgraded to a Thinkpad so it’s been better than ever.

I do occasionally use scrpy so I can type on my phone from my laptop, but that’s only practical at home obviously.

edit: Also, I’m kind of laughing to myself at the thought anyone could think a friggin trans woman on the fediverse could possibly be inept with technology :P

Not everyone is able to text. Not everyone has access to or can afford a smart phone. Refusing to take a voice call is a clear sign of social ineptitude, imo - if you really can’t be bothered to do that I shudder to think of what you must be like in face-to-face interactions. Toughen up.

I dunno about all this, I just play games from Atari, NES, SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, Playstation, etc. Maybe I’m simple but I’m also having fun :P

Omg, who fucking cares?

This may surprise you, but not everywhere is America. Here in Canada, that’s been the acronym for quite a while now. “2S” (two-spirit) refers to Indigenous queer identities.

It has gotten better, ime.

I remember learning about this in art history class in high school.

Why are you talking down to them? Don’t be rude.

Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, chaste for Corn Flakes.

I just am who I am. Yeah, I happen to be trans but I don’t feel like I need to smush my hobbies, interests, personality, etc into any particular box. I’m enjoying the open air out here.

And in case any of that makes me sound particularily interesting - I’m not, lol. I’m probably pretty boring in most people’s eyes. :P

Damn, America’s really fucking dumb.

poke…poke…

Feels stupid.

I see the Great Lakes have dried up, or perhaps been drank by very thirsty bears. I myself have met a few thirsty bears in Toronto, but I think they may have been a different subspecies. Musky though.

It’ll keep you regular if nothing else.
