A bunch of boring things you might want to do soon *if you can*:
Getting your MMR shot reupped*, your passport in order**, all age-appropriate preventive care (mammogram, colonoscopy, cholesterol check), eating more produce, getting established with a primary care doctor, getting prescriptions refilled, making lists of phone numbers, doing whatever strength work your body allows.
This isn’t selfish or non-communitarian. You can’t help others if you get knocked off the board.
We went into the spice shop the other day, and on the door where a lot of shops have that "all are welcome here" mass-produced sticker, they had taped up a crayon drawing of a pride flag with a child's signature on the back, and honestly it was so cute I'm still just sitting here thinking about it a week later.
More of that.
@ethorsoe Because for software it's a much more complex point to argue, and including it risks drowning the entire proposal in endless debate :)

re: advice needed re:medical shit, kinda freaking out
@hazelnot I would still get it checked out regardless, if at all possible. Anxiety is no joke either, and can *cause* health issues too...
Even very low tech societies had substances they used for soap and items for grooming. You're not getting back to nature, you're just being nasty
Hygiene is a fact of life, not a capitalist plot
A thing about language that a lot of people don't know is that you can dislike a usage intensely – a pronunciation, a piece of grammar, etc. – without presuming to reject it on behalf of all people, in all places, for all time

Authoritarian BS is the root of the problem. Incredibly stunted "dominate or be dominated!!!" worldviews…take hold in the some, rather than understanding that interconnections and diversity are the foundations. of. life. itself. on this planet.
I want to live in a collaboration focused world, and the only thing standing in the way of that is a bunch pigs who believe in force, their propaganda, and socialized/brainwashed folks who buy into that shit at varying levels.
check your biases.
re: advice needed re:medical shit, kinda freaking out
@hazelnot (Also there are a lot of things that are kind of like a stroke, less severe/urgent but still needing medical attention because it suggests some other underlying issue, which is why it's a good idea to get it checked out. This probably wasn't a full-on stroke judging from your description.)
re: advice needed re:medical shit, kinda freaking out
@hazelnot "Too young" is mainly a statistical thing, making it unlikely but not *impossible* that it would've been a stroke. I would definitely get it looked at if at all possible, though probably best to talk to your own GP/doctor first (if you have one) rather than going directly to the hospital. They will probably tell you whether a hospital trip is needed.
Voor mijn volgers uit Leiden. Als jullie deze kat zien, geef een gil. Hij is al een week weg en mijn vriendin mist Mees enorm. Ze is slecht ter been kan zelf niet zoeken. Hij is een beetje schuw.
Omgeving Morskade (brug tussen Leiden Zuidwest en De Mors).
(Dierenambulance etc etc zijn allemaal geïnformeerd).
UPDATE: na drie weken is Mees binnen komen lopen!

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.
