@kim @goat@hellsite.site @tobi they were actually a decent tech instance though (somehow), and they handled their sunset well too. Still easier to suspend than to have to handle all the separate delete requests tho

re: uni 

ah double checked and it was confusingly marked on the exam program excel sheet they mailed last year, but it's not in my actual exam program (and the other course's credits add up to the correct amount) so pretty sure it's all good

uni 

haha not me having signed up for electives a week ago but now panickly realizing I might have to take a specific mandatory elective because they did a switcharoo on our BSc cources. Guess i'll need another study advisor visit today

"Ben je nog steeds bang voor corona?" Ik ben niet bang, ik ben goed op de hoogte. Ik ben ook niet bang voor krokodillen maar ik weet dat het niet gezond is als ik te dichtbij kom.

I wish I could find the post

But somebody once wrote on here that there are usually lots of non-ableist ways to say things

You could say something is "wild" or "ridiculous," "ill-advised" for example instead of using terms like "crazy," "idiot," etc.

But if you're having a really hard time trying to find a good substitute for an ableist term

Maybe the concept that you're trying to convey is ableist and you need to work on that?
