@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev Though I am less convinced by the implication that the higher-ups actually listened to a painter raising a concern
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev This sounds 100% plausible to me
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev Good to see that at least *some* people spot-check their abbreviations before settling on a name :p
subpost
@kescher In fairness, that demographic matches pretty well with "unwarranted sense of self-importance, and completely oblivious to the fact that they are not actually wanted in most spaces"
Rant about open-source governance
@n0toose@chaos.social The rule of thumb I tend to follow personally is "you owe people what you imply". If you want to provide a no-support-whatsoever service, totally fine, but just be honest about it upfront! And if you are trying to actively convince people to use it, then don't be surprised when people turn out to have the associated expectations...

sex work idk
Hi all.
My gf just got shadow-banned from Reddit for doing sex work there (NSFW pictures and commissions of the same), and she really needs to find a safe place online to do that now. I don't know much about that world, but if anyone could help us out that would be really appreciated. ❤️
@DuckForTheDuck Heb ik ook, enige jaar dat ik dit probleem niet had was toen ik een hele winter zonder verwarming gedaan had, blijkbaar helpt dat nogal qua temperatuur reguleren... dagelijkse wisseldouches helpen ook wel een beetje though

Got an email from Meetup. They've finally zeroed in on the sort of groups I'd be interested in.

When I was a kid, they made being smart sound like it was the most important quality of a human being. Turns out that was a crock of shit.

capitalism observation, "torment nexus", death mention, fascism mention, squid game
it's funny how there are shitloads of cautionary and historical tales about ppl being forced to fight each other to the death (tributes of panem, gladiator, etc), all of whom have basically fascists as the antagonists, and noone would have ever considered turning these into a reality show, bc that's just so bad and terrible and yea don't make the torment nexus.
but then a show of exactly this type comes up, except their fascist antagonists are neolib-painted and have a happy corporate style, and suddenly it is acceptable to turn it into a reality show.
the lesson is that making a story about ppl being murdered "real" is socially acceptable as long as the murderers are neolibs

The problem with having ADHD in this society is that I need accommodations to help me advocate to get the diagnosis to be able to get accommodations with
Especially because they (intentionally??) set the system up in such a way that the people who need it the most have the most difficulty accessing it
Please I literally have an executive function disorder please don't make me do things that require initiative and checking in to make sure I have /actually/ been put on the years-long waitlist
@Dee "the", implying there is only one
@rune @phoenix@chaos.social Yeah, this does not sound fun to manage at all...
burnout, writers block, unsolicited advice
@toni A bit of unsolicited advice, in the hope that it helps: on the face of it that sounds like burnout, and for me the most effect way to deal with that has been to just immediately declare the day "over, impossible to salvage", and go do whatever else I feel like doing for the rest of the day.
Sometimes I'll magically become inspired again later in the day, due to the weight of "performance stress" having been dropped from my shoulders (now it's just something I *can* do, not something I *have* to do!), sometimes I won't. But either way it helps a lot for me to recover :)
Trying to 'push myself past it' only worked for a while, and eventually started becoming counterproductive... of course this may work totally differently for you! But it took me a long time personally to figure out the "declare the day over" approach, so hopefully I can help to save others from that delay :p
