polycule/household management, ADHD
After many iterations of trying to make chores happen pretty reliably and not get forgotten, in a household of 4 executively-dysfunctional ADHD creatures (me included)...
We seem to have found a way that works! At least for the regular/maintenance chores. Simply a table of chores, with 7 sets of 2 columns; one set for each day of the week, divided into "claimed" and "completed".
Whoever 'claims' a chore is responsible for its completion to the end (by doing it or delegating it under mutual agreement), and whoever actually does it (can be multiple creatures!) signs their letter in the relevant box(es).
By the end of the day, we can see exactly who did what chores, which ones were delegated, which ones were forgotten, and so on. And if something wasn't done quite right, we know who to talk to about it and clarify things.
Combined with some other (individual) adjustments, we seem to be climbing ever closer towards a daily 100% completion rate :)
Some of these chores don't strictly *need* to be done every day (could be every two days for example), but for the sake of habit building they're marked as daily chores anyway, if they're found unnecessary then a dash is put in the completion box for that chore/day to denote that.
The list is magneted to the fridge, with a pen immediately nearby at all times, and gets replaced with a clean printout at the start of every week.

I'm pretty annoyed RE my #COVID infection.... I think I know who I caught it from. A friend of mine spotted me on campus and walked up to me while my mask was off, and by the time he was in my face I realised he had covid symptoms.
Like why do people lack basic fucking germ theory knowledge?! It's 2024, and IMO, its incredibly fucking rude to breathe in the face of anyone while youre symptomatic with any contagious disease!!!!

ryanair hiring manager: our other candidate fell through, are you still interested in this role? we can pay you €50,000
me: sorry, since you didn't make me an offer right away, i'm now demanding at least €90,000
@joepie91 Haha ik weet nog dat ik in de brugklas bij economie deze termen leerde en dat ik toen heel erg in de war was om deze reden. En de docent begreep mijn verwarring niet.
Seems to suggest a disconnect between the dev team and the user community, but what do I know?
fediverse CW field curb cut effect
yes, you can use the CW tool to give content warnings for material that requires content warnings, like news stories about ongoing atrocities or unsolicited suggestions to strangers
...but now that the technology exists, you can also use it for literally any information you want to offer to contextualize the post for those reading it
we love using the CW field to say when we're novice-blogging (talking about something we're not very knowledgeable about), as a kind of tone-indicator thing when we're posting brain nonsense, when we just feel self-conscious about taking up space ... it's handy
Kwam deze tegen in het Duits: https://todon.nl/@anarchiv/113271300327034109
Vertaling: "Ik ben van mening dat men in het Duits de term 'werkgever' zou moeten vermijden, omdat het een ideologisch gekleurde term is die de indruk wekt dat de 'werkgever' zo aardig is om de 'werknemer' (dat heet een arbeider, verdomme) een baan aan te bieden, en daarmee geheel voorbij gaat aan de uitbuiting en dwang die aan het kapitalisme ten grondslag liggen.
Tegenvoorstel: 'arbeidskoper', afkomstig uit het taalgebruik van de Zweedse arbeidersbeweging (Duits: 'Arbeitskäufer', Zweeds: 'arbedsköpare')."
Prima punt eigenlijk, en ook van toepassing op het Nederlands.
Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
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
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
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.
