If I am denying your follow requests, please consider the following before resending a follow request:

- You may not have enough or any info in your bio and that might be all that I see before I accept the follow request.
-Consider adding your age (or just above or below 18)
-pronouns
-politics
-give me some idea of who you are in terms of your interests. If I can't distinguish you from a newsposting bot I won't accept.

Do not just link to bio information elsewhere. That's neat, but I should know enough from your bio here to not need to depend on what may be a dead link or a site that blocks Tor connections. I don't want to have to be a detective!

The rest here rarely applies:
- Your bio says you are "above/beyond" gender and you are clearly a cishet dude just refusing to post your preferred pronouns because of some weird anxiety (seriously, stop even "any" is acceptable)
- You might be using national flags outside the context of indicating which languages you speak, which I see as a red flag.
- You use exclusionary slurs (not cuss words, I don't give a fuck) including anything homophobic or ableist
- You actively advocate for some kind of hierarchy (yuck)
- Multiple of the above apply, and idk why you sent me a follow request at all

I mute/block people who get too caught up in electoralist political theater and obsess over authoritarian policy wonk bullshit because its unhealthy for me to engage with and also drags me into that same distraction so if I mute/block/unfollow you and you were wondering why, that's probably the number one thing. That and joking about authoritarianism in a shitposty "I was just being sarcastic about my support of this regime or fetishization of their oppression" kinda way that used to just be purely an unhealthy 4chan thing for right-wingers, but now I see authcoms doing more often too. It has extremely toxic channer vibes that almost remind me of shit like bunkerchan making memes about Tienanmen Square, holodomor, gulags, etc. Also if you still think its okay to idolize Richard Stallman.

- Tanky ( Marxist-Leninist, Stalinist, Maoist, or otherwise apologetic of cult of personality figures: Juche(ist?), Assadist, etc)
- Patriotic or Nationalistic for any concept of a nation or in-group, excluding others from your concept of right to inclusion, mutual cooperation, and well-being
- You think something like "SJW's have gone too far"
- You do not unconditionally accept and respect queer identities
- You casually use ableist slurs instead of using words that are actually descriptive
- You don't acknowledge that white people have no say in what to do with stolen land
- You exclude people for reasons beyond their actions or stated beliefs
- You think that being "apolitical" is ever a good thing
- You feel the need to ask why for any of these

no nazis is implied, but as if they'd listen, they think they're owed a platform everywhere they go.

HEY STOP SUCKING MY TOES

my x200 thinkpad gets hot and locks up so I had to install a script to throttle the cpu based on temperature. Reducing my display brightness reduces power drain and therefore reduces heat, so the script will start unthrottling my computer as I reduce my brightness.
Now I have a weird superstition that on any computer it may actually run a little faster if I turn the display brightness down. I know this because I'm usually watching a stream of some kind in one workspace and I can watch the changes in refresh rate.

anyways reminds me of that xkcd about the person who scripted a function to the temperature rise of a bug where holding spacebar heated their computer up, but in real life. Brightness down enables turbo mode.
