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.

giving a catgirl a Linux image of an undocumented device from China is like giving a cat a ball of yarn
There's something darkly ironic about receiving this year's trash collection tax bill literally 1 day before the trash collectors go on strike

Love how people will write up and publish a full academic paper about scholarly instances on Fedi and completely re-write the history to erase scholar.social, which has been on here since 2017

Autism Speaks came up again in interactions recently so I just wanted to make people aware again that it's an *incredibly* harmful organisation that caters to neurotypical's feelings rather than help ND people. TW for article: eugenics, abuse, harmful ideas, etc https://medium.com/artfullyautistic/autism-speaks-deception-eugenics-and-abuse-618cf65c094a

with Swarm/Foursquare feeling like they might be at risk of shutting down at any point, I keep wondering what an ActivityPub-based equivalent might look like
Foursquare have an incredible venue database, I think in part because they’ve done a great job at gamifying data entry- what if you could do the same against e.g., OpenStreetMap?

@stavvers a german leftist newspaper gave this the great name "Gewinnflation" (basically profit inflation) driven by all companies increasing consumer prices because they want their part of the cake that is our misery

It would be very nice if my migraine would finally go away
FOSS, regularly scheduled spicy take
Here's your monthly(?) reminder that the Free Software movement is not meaningfully different from the Open-Source movement, that neither of the two are equivalent to "copyleft", that "copyleft" isn't working in practice either, and that the real problem here is capitalism and tolerance of it within FOSS communities, not the licensing model.
Invite a wolf into your community, get eaten. Requiring them to wear sheep's clothes doesn't fix that.
