but yeah
the worst part isn't even the hate
it's the apathy
it's the cis people who stand idly by and say "this isn't my fight"
even though it totally is
this shouldn't be the only reason you care but, transphobic legislation can impact us all
some of them even profess to be allies, but when push comes to shove they're not even gonna correct someone who misgenders you
at the end of the day, not making a scene is more important to them than standing up for what's right
Another addition: "let us know if you cannot afford this" really isn't enough. It pretty clearly signals "we don't think you belong here if you're poor, but if you ask real nice we might be generous", which is extremely fucked up.
I really should write a broader article about accessible in-person events some day...
(Corrolary: if your events cost 1000+ EUR, that means that they are for corporations only)

Do not tell me this is unconstitutional without telling me how you'll restore the legitimacy of the Supreme Court. Otherwise you're just telling us to trust in a system that's actively trying to get us killed.
I also love how they shipped two other FPGAs in a whole-ass tray look at them, so lonely
Anyway here's a real "tossing the question out to the wisdom of the internet" long shot
Does anyone have recs for wet dog food that is one can per day for dogs around 15-20 lbs?
Ideally not grain or at least not carb free. That's an odd thing I know but as my doglet has no allergies, it's actually heart healthier long term to have some wild rice or whatever in there too.
My wee little old lady is wanting wet food these days (and getting her teeth checked on is also in the mix). I also am like thirteen different chronic health conditions in a trench coat so having something already proportioned out per day is really helpful.
Ofc it would also be really nice to not be one of those extremely fancy services where each meal for your dog costs like 5 dollars on up per day 🙃
This is definitely a long shot, but
If you're feeding your dog a food where it's one can per day per 15-20 lbs and you like it, tell me what you're using!
Or if you just know a cool search tool where I can search dog food and find options with filtering it in that "one serving per body weight" way lol, that would also be real nice
Thank y'all in advance if anyone can help!!
@fraggle @jimpjorps we trained a language model on five billion reddit comments and for some reason it's confidently wrong about stuff???
uspol, mini-rant
Apart from anything else, my white boyfriends seem to manage this solidarity thing just fine.
They listen when it’s time to learn and they pull me aside when it’s time for me to listen and learn.
I promise if you’re struggling with this kind of thing, this is a you problem.
Am I affected by transphobia? Even as a cis person? Absolutely.
Also, I’m an accomplice; not an ally. The stakes are very high for me and my loved ones.
The time for white queers to stop deflecting when white queers do not keep up their end of the agreement between communities was many many years ago.
The next best opportunity to stop deflecting and start listening would be today. Right now.
I should post fish here someday. Until then, please enjoy this gravel.
rant, git, UX
So here's a good example of how git actually isn't very intuitive at all:
- A common action before commit is to *stage* changes
- You do this with a command called git *add*
- To view the staged changes, you have to run git diff with the *cached* flag
Why are three entirely different terms used here to refer to the same thing?
(That is a rhetorical question, btw)

- The devil doesn't need an advocate; no combative arguing in my mentions.

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.
