All this political maneuvering bullshit is so fucking exhausting, just fix the problems already, the solutions are *right there*

There’s this weird notion that autistic people don’t function well with group work, but this is only true if there’s one autistic person thrust into a group of neurotypical people
Put one neurotypical person into a group of all autistic people and now let’s see who has a hard time with working in groups

If you ever leave a community - any community - because of (systemic) problems with it, *please* post the reasons publicly if you are able to.
You don't need to engage with people questioning your reasons or asking you things, or any other replies - merely state your motivation for leaving, what led up to it.
It may sound like a small thing, but it is *immensely* helpful to the people staying behind fighting to fix the community's issues, who will have a concrete thing to point towards to show that other people are not tolerating it either.

Anyone here with any experience of #RucksackRepair #OutdoorRepair #HikingKitRepair? I want to replace the zip on my rucksack which is now so old the teeth keep opening up unpredictably. I've replaced zips on clothes before but never outdoor kit. Am I looking for a specific type of especially strong zip, or will any do?

#WestSeattle street-name planning has, uh, incurred a persistent cognitive load tax on pedestrian and automotive street users alike

Be especially kind to trans/agender/non-binary people in the UK today
Lots of news sites and people are going to be discussing a high profile report into the UK’s NHS and gender identity.
One of the report’s conclusions is around the toxicity of the “debate”, which is no surprises and is borne out by some of the headlines I’ve seen in papers today,
Anticipate plenty of anti-trans comments and sentiment today so please be extra kind and supportive to people in your life who could be affected.

Hey nerds! What's a good way to get a number that can receive SMS messages and just forward them to an e-mail address with no need for an actual physical phone to be involved?

Can't believe some people need to be told that everyone has ideology like everyone has culture like everyone has an accent. I always roll my eyes at people who act like ideology is when you're too stubborn about your beliefs, that everyone has ideology but me, the one true social scientist!

having now seen a total eclipse I can confirm that if I had had even 20% less context for what was about to happen I would have immediately started throwing people into nearby volcanos

Don't do this, people. It helps no one and if anything pushes people away from our community.

Big update there on the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of solar PV. It was just 5 tons before 👀
Most numbers got updated, but solar is a big shift. No apparent explaination given, but I assume the feed data got updated.

have an urge to mediate conflicts as they arise

you want to show solidarity with trans people? actually do something that will help a little bit? put your pronouns in your CV! if you let trans people stand alone, just know you are not an ally when it counts. who up when it matters to trans people not when its the most convenient for you.

ik voel een soort afkeer voor stickers van De Rode Lap omdat die link naar hun website er meestal veel te groot op staat waardoor het overkomt als reclame voor hun webshop in plaats van dat het op zichzelf een boodschap overbrengt
