homophobia, important
Please keep an eye out for people trying to brand monkeypox as a "gay disease", explicit or otherwise, and push back hard and early!
I've already started seeing the same kind of "the damn gays fucking everywhere" rhetoric that also popped up during the first years of the AIDS epidemic in the US. That rhetoric was directly responsible for (tens of?) thousands of deaths.
We absolutely *cannot* afford to let homophobes gain control over the public narrative around monkeypox, and let them use it to once again kill queer folks by denying them crucially important healthcare.
(Also, all the while trying to avoid all of the usual technical traps that make most (dynamic) website builders completely unscalable/unreliable, by planning out the entire mental/data model for it upfront)
Today's project: working on my website builder project thing! Specifically, one that is built for personal creativity rather than corporate needs, and that'll hopefully Some Day(tm) be extensible to the point of easily building entirely custom dynamic things for communities... assuming my ADHD ass ever actually gets to that point
People who moved to Mastodon from Twitter in recent months:
How you feelin about it?
Please don't feel I'm asking you to pledge allegiance or Engage In Discourse
There's an obvious selection bias cause you're still here to read this, anyway.
Just, we've all had the welcome wagon out and the fediverse has been praising itself a lot. But like, I dunno. Curious how it's sitting with y'all on a personal basis

Looks like mainstream Dutch media is already starting to perpetuate it with questionable imagery choices: https://www.ad.nl/binnenland/tot-drie-weken-quarantaine-na-contact-met-apenpokken-patient-adviseert-ggd~a04a5b27/
Sorry, Curator, but 5 minutes are not enough for combining crosshatching with your interesting prompts (negative space, reflections, texture, whoa). So these are #10MinuteSketch (15' for the lamp). More gained, less stress. But I want to try something shape-based soon. Then 3-4 minutes should suffice.

Here is another #article I adapted from my #Autism acceptance week posts. This one talks about the intersection between autism and gender diversity, and includes links to #research. It posted yesterday but I forgot to share D:

this town isn't big enough for the both of us so it looks like we should build more housing and get rid of some restrictive low-density zoning
Testing a pull request to add #Phosh to Mobile #NixOS.

Looks like the #Pinephone finally becomes usable!
If you own a Pinephone, you can test it by downloading the image, copy it do a microSD card and boot from it.
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.
