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.

Kans is groot dat ik zelf met dit idee aan de slag ga. Moet nog wel even kijken of ik andere mensen kan vinden die mee willen doen met organiseren enzo.

@joepie91 en dan is het vaak ook nog van deze ellende.

You know what? No. A team I've never heard from cannot invite me to a 9am Monday meeting out of nowhere. What the fuck?
Idee: website waar je gratis activistische stickers kunt bestellen, en waar je zelf als ontvanger de postzegelcode koopt en bij je bestelling invult. Dan hoeft er helemaal niets met geldstromen en administratie gedaan te worden.
De hoeveelheid zitplekken op Nederlandse stations is echt heel karig

Asking for a friend (genuinely): can anyone in the UK recommend a therapist (with availability) who's queer, kink, polyam? For remote sessions. Friend is trying Pink Therapy but no luck yet, and some other org that I can't remember, but I figured I'd ask here too :)
It was probably just a minor technical defect as the train was just delayed by 5 minutes in the end; it sat a small distance away from the station for those 5 minutes

@njion I just looked up what that train is and... yeah that's got the design where if any water gets into the HVAC duct area it gets launched in passengers' faces. That's not nice.

So far it seems like people have only two possible reactions to seeing the WinRAR purse. Either they immediately know what it is, or they think it looks… familiar, but they can't quite tell why. …and one person who yelled "WinZIP" at me.

Firms will no longer be allowed to ‘ghost’ candidates that they interviewed for a job under new rules coming into effect in the Canadian province Ontario.
An update to the Employment Standard Acts will oblige firms to notify candidates about the status of their application within 45 days.
The new rules, which will apply from 2026, will also oblige firms to outline salary details in adverts and disclose whether artificial intelligence is used in the hiring process.

A stranger’s rude question left me in fear of one word
"All this, I later learned, meant I technically qualified as disabled, but I never thought of myself that way.
I remember having this preconceived idea of what being disabled looked like: either you were a wheelchair user or someone who was hard of hearing and that was it. There was no in-between, no grey area."

To all the babytranses concerned about passing:
At some point passing will stop to matter to you as much as it did before. Because your self-worth is not determined by how other people perceive you, I hope you'll cone to that realisation. You are the architect of your own life.
(Secretly this post and its replies are a todo list for me that I can easily find again
