terrified that my new team is going to ask me to turn on my camera during the hours where I wear my wizard hat at work

Weird situation to work on 3 separate projects that also all inhibit the same problem space so lots of overlap

(Although FediFox the client and FediFox Shield are not so separate, splitting out a bunch of the components and styling into a shared library package)

Mention of ableist words 

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?

Finally worked some more on , my project to write a protective layer of sorts around Mastodon 4.x' newly way too exposed API

Code is a sprawling mess, but i'm also using this as a playground for some new tech, like streamed server-side React rendering with Suspense
