@schratze Liz once bought me “giant garlic”, maybe it was called elephants garlic? The bulb was huge.
I love roasting garlic, so that’s why we got it.
I cracked it open, and found one single clove about 2/3 the size of my fist (although I do have smol hands).
I am now convinced that this is what recipes mean when they say “one clove of garlic”, because otherwise, they always call for far too little.
mh, abuse, social advice for the people who need to hear it
if anyone ever tells you "you can't just run away from people you don't like" then they are fucking lying to you
that's some toxic shit toxic people will use to abuse you to give them your presence
your presence is a gift only you alone get do decide to whom you bestow
if anyone's wholesale dismissing your decisions to get out of an uncomfortable/unsafe situation then they do not care about you and only want your attention
jobs in neurotypical society, wtf
TIL about "auticon" which apparently is the company that employs autistic people in IT at significantly below-market salaries in order to then sell their services as extraordinary IT consultants with unique cognitive strengths 🤮
Like, if your employees are so unique, they should be paid above market, not below.
And they market themselves as "helping", sounds more like exploiting the fact that some of these people have nowhere else to go.
fediblock monads dot online
just a reminder after seeing some folks' reaction to the newest bit of fashjacketing or whatever that's been going around
lots of smug tankie takes and very online hostility that its userbase passes off as leftist action or something and it's never gotten any better over the years
defederating from them is guaranteed to reduce your tl's rancid vibes and increase the average quality of visible discussions
@rune There *sort of* is, in Dutch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_the_handicap_of_a_head_start
yo holy shit Dead Cells added a ton of accessibility and assist features
- UI tweaks / graphics tweaks
- color filters
- you can give yourself extra lives
- you can adjust trap damage and turn on an auto-attack to reduce how many inputs are necessary to play
- a TON of control tweaks
AND they said they won't disable achievements if you turn any of the assist features on: "We are not going to make it possible for people to play the game and then take achievements away from them."
fuck YES. this RULES.
@Natanox@chaos.social @aurora@social.bau-ha.us I mean, the problem isn't really with the vehicles themselves, so much as it is with them being privately-operated for-profit businesses that invest precisely 0 into infrastructure for them, expecting society to eat the cost and in some cases even expecting cities to build rental-vehicle-only(!) parking spaces with public money.
If these things were designed and deployed in a way where it didn't interfere with sidewalk accessibility or other use of public space, *and* it didn't end up with for-profit corporations outsourcing their operational costs to public money, it would be fine!

My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
