Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
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
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
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.

@quinn I imagine that the most significant difference here is the millions (billions?) in propaganda budget... 😕

it's honestly terrifying to watch how so many people started to trust black box word manglers (AI) as an authoritative source

does anyone know how to get into a recognised gender team in nl if I already have a diagnosis in poland? i need healthcare that’s reimbursed and 3 years is too much to wait
Realization: I think part of why brightly colored highlights in UI distract me and stress me out more than they used to, is because UI themes have become so generally bland and colorless that they stand out like a sore thumb
Train review
@Stephanie It boggles my mind how NS still hasn't put some kind of sticker or sign in the ICNGs explaining what the colors are supposed to mean...

Ads, overthinking
I keep getting ads for free memorial coins (excluding shipping), and I wonder: what's the grift here? What's in it for them, such they can run ads, strike a coin, and send it for 4 euros? Or is this just a free first sample and they're hoping that I'll buy more coins from them?

Unhinged Outsider parenting tip: Try not to lie to your children. And if you do, write every lie you tell them down, along with why you lied. When they're ready, tell them.
Can you suggest some interesting blogs you enjoy, to plop into my RSS reader?
Looking mainly for people blogging about their own projects and experiences. Not so much for the heavy political analysis and misery reporting.

Do you regularly add alt texts to your images?
Please be honest, I want to use this result in an essay.

This is really important advice, especially for anyone dealing with mental health struggles or a chronic illness.

Hey there, I thought I'd #askFedi because I'm already tired of #AI (#LLM) #slop killing the #web (and #computing in general), and it looks like it's only going to get worse. Is there a #movement that seeks to connect and promote content, #software, services, etc. made by actual #humanBeings? Maybe with a campaign badge.

USA companies and military using indigenous tribes, names, and general vocabulary to describe their products (especially war machines) are disgusting and should be called out. If you didn't get permission from the Apache people, you can't call your thing or software "Apache".

If you don't live here, you don't understand how quiet it is. It gets quiet enough in residential areas at night that you can hear a pin drop. If you pull up on a motorcycle outside of the city center after 21:00 everyone hears it. Its so incredibly loud and awful. As an autistic person I love how quiet this city is. Gas powered motorcycles (and of course cars) ruin it.

The Netherlands has given me a new found hatred of combustion motorcycles. They sound like ear piercing farts. I have no patience for them because they're not necessary. You can walk, bike, or take public transit here. You could even get an electric bike or motorcycle. Instead you sound like you have the meat farts from blocks away and you disrupt all conversation with your painful gas.
(I realize that I'm one of the like 6 people on this globe who actually reads terms and conditions)

people in a couple of car groups i'm in have started replying to help requests with grok and chatgpt generated answers and i'm so looking forward to somebody completely fucking their car up because they followed bullshit instructions generated by a bullshit generator
