We support the blockade of the Davos private airport by @DebtforClimate, demanding debt cancellation for the Global South. Thousands of private jets are using this airport to attend the World Economic Forum, where financial decisions strangling the Global South are made.#wef23 1/

Human Computer Interaction folks: is there any literature on designing interfaces for eventually consistent systems?

Whoever did this and I would get along well.

I wrote an entire mini thesis on the history and use of the word queer in college (at my school you had to write a 10-20 pg mini thesis for every class with a topic you picked that was related to the subject of the class and this was for an LGBTQIA+ history class). I spent hours every day for about 6 months extensively researching the history of the word, and its use in the US and around the world.

There are some nuanced parts of history of the word, but at the end of the day there is not any good faith argument for telling LGBTQIA+ people we cannot describe ourselves or our own communities as "queer".

Controversy over the reclaiming of the word (for individuals or the community as a whole) has historically and is currently almost always centered around the feelings of white cis gay men and lesbians who do not want to include trans people, polysexual people, ace people, and people of color (among other groups) from "their community". Do not let them get away with it.

If you don't want it used to describe you as an individual that is fine, but our choice to call ourselves queer deserves as much respect as your choice not to.

@gsuberland Literally always buying the fastest computer I can so I don’t ever have to wait, because waiting means drifting.

Stop asking "could this meeting be an email?" and start asking "could this discord server be a support forum?"

Instead of going to Brussels in February, I'm going to print out this sign for my office door and then watch the talks on my phone from the kitchen for the proper #FOSDEM experience.

…and just a few other things…

Deep down, I think we all know that if you have a machine like this, you’re unanimously the bad guy, right?

Adriaan & Rocher present: alles wat je moet weten over Blue Monday! Check snel dit draadje om meer over dit fenomeen te weten te komen.

Blue Monday, wie kent het niet? Meer dan vijftien jaar geleden is de derde maandag van januari omgedoopt tot meest deprimerende dag van het jaar. Elk jaar weer berichten media over hoe ontzettend mistroostig deze blauwe maandag wel niet is.

Bad news: the sewer at the end of our street seems to have overflowed and now sewage is flooding the building there
Good news: it's the police department

what I love here is that when I accidentally click on a random link with my thick fingers without meaning to in a post i haven't even looked at, I can be sure that it's not some random advertisement page that will overload my little mobile device and open a pop-up that I have go close before I can even think about closing the page. it's probably just some random blogpost

Scenes and organic things are still very difficult with this setup sadly, but at least I managed in the end.
