Hype Machine's Merch Table scans your Spotify Wrapped playlist to show you what is available for purchase on Bandcamp, and since tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday it's a good time to support the artists you've been listening to this year:

Looking for donations for server hardware, boosts appreciated 

So uh, hypothetically speaking, do any of y'all have 4 TB of redundant NVME storage laying around and are within driving distance of Minneapolis?

Cyberia.club is going on a hardware upgrade road trip to expand our Baikal server. We're looking at maybe four 2 TB NVME drives, if anyone's feeling generous and/or has a pile of them somewhere.

Otherwise, donations towards new crunch are appreciated over at cyberia.club/donate. No pressure to send us dosh, we'll love ya all the same. 🖤

remember that time a north african merchant(?) named constantine was in italy and a guy in the hostel was sick and they called a doctor and constantine was like "uhh aren't you gonna take a urine sample" and the doctor was like "a what" and constantine was like "…" and the doctor was like "…" and then constantine africanus moved to the monastery of monte cassino and spent the rest of his life translating arabic medical texts into latin,

because i think about this probably every single week

a few years ago, i started thinking "you know, it would be pretty cool if somebody took seriously the idea that G-d has no gender and came up with a third-gender system in Hebrew and used it to make a de-gendered siddur. i would love to see what that looks like"

and then i was introduced to the Nonbinary Hebrew Project and i was like "wow! i hope somebody uses this to make a siddur! that would be really neat!"

and then i was like "...oh, i'm somebody, huh"

One Last Call To Makers Of Collage! 

#collage

I've successfully whittled down many, many boxes of old magazine clippings and booklets over the last year or so. In large part thanks to artsy types on here who took many of them off my hands.

Is there anyone left out there who'd still like a box shipped to them, gratis?

DM me & we'll set it up. (Yes, if you're outside the U.S., we can still try it. I can check postal rates & then get back to you if they're not fatally high.)

Boosts welcome.

i am *so* into the beam parable, is the thing: if you steal someone's beam and make it part of your house, true repentance means tearing down your house so you can give the beam back, not just paying financial compensation. *this has implications for decolonization* #DafYomi #Taanit16

The Straights, minor lewd word, mild trans ignorance 

My straight friends are pretty good, except they didn't know what 'bussy' meant. I guess they heard it on twitch?

They're trying to use it properly now, but it's, uh, imperfect.

Food, recipe, vegetarian, alc, sous vide 

2 T butter
2 T brown sugar
About a shot of French brandy
6 cardamom seeds, three pods lightly crushed
2 t the best vanilla extract ya got
2 pears, kinda under ripe

Slice the pears and remove seeds (I used my mandoline because it's easier than a knife)
Put all ingredients into sous vide bags (zip locks with air squeezed out is fine)
Immerse fruit in 150°\80c water for 1 hour 20 minutes

Save the liquids and serve over anything, it's great.

Put the pears on a salad or something, I don't know. Have them with ice cream? Brag to your friends or family?

whats wrong with this picture 

And, as if to rub it in, because this is of course a group for blind people, the image came with a description. “[Image shows Seeing the ***Ability North West in red letters... The blue *** replaces the Dis to show Ability]

So there can be no doubt about the intent of the logo. (And it’s just a terrible logo anyway, you know if it is if you have to explain the semiotics of it.)

But the hilarious thing, the way I really know this is a “tell me your organization for blind people is run by sighted people without telling me…” situation, is that this is not only a garbage idea but no one thought to take screenreaders into account. You know, that thing that the target audience is disproportionately going to use for this group.

Because with a screenreader, the name of the group is Seeing the Asterisk Asterisk Asterisk Ability.”

Not only does this make it weird and tiring to try to follow (imagine hearing that without seeing it!), it calls so much more attention to the asterisks! Wanting to draw attention away from the “dis-” and towards the “ability” is a terrible goal but if that is your goal, this is actually really counterproductive!

That makes me laugh a lot.

So let this be a lesson to you: don’t shy away from terms like “disability,” don’t do terrible graphic design, and don’t forget about screenreaders especially if blind people are your audience. And if you do all these things at once, the results are literally going to be laughable.
