Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
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.

@neil Though I should note that I'm not certain that there don't *exist* other funding methods for the EU, I have just heard claims from quite a few people dealing with EU stuff that this is the easiest way to get it through bureaucracy, so it's possible that it's more convenience than regulatory requirement
@neil (And yes this is a fucking awful model for funding the commons, but you can thank the neoliberals for that)
@neil I'm guessing this is an attempt at integrating it within the EU's weird funding structures where everything must be a public tender to be funded, and therefore creating a project is bureaucratically easier than trying to essentially take over an existing one.
I think this is also part of the reason that eg. FOSS funding was outsourced through organizations like NLNet?
@theresnotime@fox.nexus Oh yeah, absolutely.
NLmedia NLpol somewhat positive
@smveerman Tot mijn verbazing is het niet eens weggestopt in de 'columns'-rubriek, zoals meestal gebeurt.
Doesn't mean that there are never problems or conflicts of course, but it does mean that we have the tools to deal with them in a constructive manner - like a 'voting sheet' of sorts for what's for dinner, and a sheet to claim and track chores being done, as well as constructive house meetings when issues need to be discussed
Just realized today that I have, sort of accidentally, achieved the dream of "living in a peaceful indescribable polycule of queer neurospicy folks"... and I didn't really notice until now

“Basically, men need to start mansplaining sexism to other men.”
@Saupreiss @jon This is exactly it (and this has really always been the reason, border checks have never been effective)
@clacksee@wandering.shop (Which often do keyword matching)
@clacksee@wandering.shop Perhaps it's an attempt to get past the automated review filters that a lot of places use now?
