@0xabad1dea I’m good with words and can barely manage arithmetic. In the 15 years that I’ve been coding, my math handicap has rarely been relevant, and has never amounted to more than a bump in the road.
I’m only one data point, but also a happy one. 😄
@futurebird I’m so happy that we have arrived at a time in history when my natural aversion to phone calls is shared by so many. My extroverted friends call me out of the blue and I’m like I love you but why would you choose violence like this.
@pauline Also, but tangential: every so often, you’ll stumble across a self-identifying transhumanist (often a billionaire, or billionaire-aspiring) who is simultaneously and vocally anti-trans, and you just have to giggle. 🤭
You want a hot swappable brain, but your transport is only ever going to have two legs and an outie?
Now _that’s_ a failure of imagination.🙄
@ajbobo @TheSpaceshipper The boss’ office as a painful, sterile space for a space trucker works beautifully—I think you’re right; we’re supposed to be hurt. 😵💫
@pauline I did notice this. I have thought about it. I can’t imagine a culture of extreme body modification finding it nearly as titillating as we do, but then again: kinks will find a way.
Maybe these brothels offer services that are more than just the mere, proximate manifestation of transexuality, and instead transexual eroticism of some subtle flavor that’s culturally imperceivable to us?
What are your thoughts?
@tillybridges Yeah, you are!! 🥳
@TheSpaceshipper Hello, the most so-ugly-it’s-beautiful spaceship ever. 😍
@h5e I’m pretty sure my rhythm is also my hell. 👹

@tillybridges Put some xanthan gum in your coffee and you can have a slice of coffee alongside that slice of pudding.
This has been bad cooking tips with Nicole. 👩🍳
@h5e Done over video call or was it live?
@h5e Congratulations!!
A powerful #lesson - source unknown.
A teacher tells her students, "I'm going to come around and whisper to each of you whether you're a witch or a regular person. Your goal is to build the largest group possible that does NOT have a #witch in it. At the end, any group found to include a witch gets a failing grade."
The teens dove into grilling each other. One fairly large group formed, but most of the students broke into small, exclusive groups, turning away anyone they thought guilty.

It's weird, as a librarian, to have to have conversations with yourself about how far you would go. Would I be willing to go to jail for 30 days because I did the right thing and refused to take LGBTQ books off the shelves? Could my family afford me not working for 30 days for doing the right thing? Would I still have a job afterward? Would I be able to maintain my clearances to work with children if I had been to jail for 30 days for not removing allegedly sexually explicit books from shelves?
