@TodePond @spoltier yeah i guess i'm focusing more on expression and how one feels about themself, which is how i form my identity

what would you do differently? — for yourself, at least, not for some fucking web form.

@spoltier @TodePond something like this

there's a "how far" vs "how fast" thing that's not captured here that I think is crucial

but i'm just posting, not actually designing, so idfk

(also, the fact that they're asking at all strikes me as idiotic, but i'm ignoring that entirely because it's more fun to play that way)

(also, i bet for many people the cultural references to "masc" and "fem" wouldn't convey the right meaning — again, just posting, not actually designing)

A chart labelled "Gender Velocity: how quickly you'd like to change, or change how you feel, relative to your current state"

beneath, there's a spectrum from more masc to more fem with "current" in the middle, and then a vertical list of qualities/feelings — body hair, facial hair, hairstyle, facial structure, body shape, hands, gait — and for each, a line extending toward the "more fem" side, each of varying lengths. at the bottom is a button to "add quality / feeling"

@spoltier @TodePond Yes! And you should be able to draw these todos as vectors, like "here's a direction I'd like to go, and I do know how fast, but I don't know how far" or whatever.

I love that the Ink & Switch meetups begin by a workshop to make yourself a notebook for the event.

Actually, I guess if I want more folks to play bicross I should share it to more than followers only, huh?

@yaxu I don't like the limitations that GPL puts on my use. It's seemingly the most effective anti-corporate-abuse license, but I want something that has both "do whatever you, a person making cool stuff for fun, want to" but also "stab the eyes of the giants, grind their bones, and grow flowers where they once stood"

@yaxu I was responding to an earlier version of the post that only talked about the OSS angle. I'm increasingly convinced that copyright should be abolished, many more things should be public domain, and thus I don't care if they don't respect my choice of license.

The bit of your original post that I didn't respond to, that does resonate with me, is the consideration of other collaborators who would refuse to work with GitHub. That's legit, and I'll move for that. Just don't know where yet.

@yaxu ehhhh I'm going to continue posting public domain stuff there and not care who does what with it. If they wanna train AI on it, I don't care. Not gonna cut off my nose to spite the hell mouth gnawing at me.

@kennethkalmer Animate was just Flash rebranded and neglected for a decade. It was exactly the Flash you remember. The Flash of the good old days. RIP

What an ignominious end. Flash deserved so much better.
