I am SO TIRED of gay people throwing Trans people under the bus.

#Trans #LGBTQIA

@danhon the repeated waves of layoff in the tech industry certainly undermined the assumption that tech workers do not need unions.

you know if it weren't for covid i'd be surprised if we weren't on the cusp of another occupy-style movement, at least one signal is the greater willingness (and demonstrated effectiveness!) to unionize and of strikes but you know, maybe we're also fucking exhausted

I drew a small shrimp just for you please take good care of them

Trolling in the '90s: Saying rancid shit on usenet

Trolling in the 2023rd year of our Lord: "I like javascript"

we've said it before and we'll say it again

it is important that Linux distributions are independent from upstream software developers, that they have their own governance structures and their own experts on how to integrate software into an overall system

that is a feature. that protects people.

Linux distributions have done an absolutely astonishing job at organizing large amounts of volunteer labor

in most cases, software publishers don't have to do anything at all to take advantage of that labor. if they want stuff to happen faster all they really need to do is talk to somebody, which we would hope is easy since it's the publisher who has paid staff and all that

maybe, like, take volunteers up on their efforts to help instead of trying to subvert the process?

Someone asked, probably rhetorically, "Who has 12 kids in this day and age??"

I'm gonna answer anyway: the people who have 12 kids in the USA in the 21st century are religious fundamentalists whose ideologies are so unpopular that their best option for spreading their beliefs is to indoctrinate children from birth in isolation from the rest of the world.

Now you know.

Sensible, human me: work is frustrating today and a lot of things are chaotic. You should breathe, keep a level head, and carefully address everything people need with measured, chosen replies. Be considerate of people's emotions and overreactions, tread lightly while keeping others calm.

Fox me: you should pee on all of this and then leave.

Not my thing but...Fox-Me might be onto something there.

I guess in the mean time if anybody's got a line on a good trans friendly primary care doctor in the Las Vegas area let me know?
