@JulieSqveakaroo to be fair fear and fuck are weirdly close together in the brain

re: Making Concessions 

@Momentrabbit that's uh. that's quite the drive. would you just be putting the money into the gas budget?

@mawr "We're just demonstrating how creep- err how effective we are."

@mannix @badlogic making posts not viewable unless you have an account *unless* you go through the API is just weird.

@Charlotte @Phorm Forgotten Weapons doesn't do it as much, I guess because YouTube calls that life history? but yes definitely a category to open in an incognito tab if at all

(and mark so many channels as do not recommend it gets real gross)

@Phorm @JulieSqveakaroo this sounds like a prank to get someone to stand in front of an open bottle

USpol, wut 

US politics is weird as fuck right now, more so than usual. Today managed a new type of wut, though

Congressman holding a baby as he walks through the halls, and answering "Not yet" to questions about if it's his. Then getting into a screaming match about something unrelated, again still holding the baby.

(it was Santos, because of course it was)

Do people calling me just have a sixth sense for when I'm waiting for a call, or what?!

Whiteness 

@robinhood This assumes "culture" is tied to a piece of land an arbitrary ancestor and arbitrary number of generations ago inhabited.

For some people, that's true. For many it isn't. I could name half a dozen Northern Europeans counties I could be "from". Their culture isn't mine though, or my family's.

@22 Still worth seeing! it's just not gonna have that "wait did reality just break" effect heh

2017 was amazing

@22 Just so you know, there's no total eclipse this year. The one on Saturday is an annual (90% coverage) which is very different!

That said cleardarksky.com/c/ChicoObCAke has cloud cover forecasts by location. It's mainly for astronomy, but it does forecast day clouds! might be useful for location scouting.

@kauko I wonder if that's the artist I think it is

@mcc that looks like an amazing figit toy, too

@jwz I yelled at support about this a while back.

They responded by... offering me a discount on the product I didn't want? and now I run keepass.

@bk1e @jwz If you let the extension update, they replace it with a broken version

@mcc Logging out. hope you can shift between Ctrl alt delete fast enough!

US pol, positive for once, actionable! 

The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is updating its workplace harassment guidance to include misgendering and other #trans specific harassment. Public comment on the proposal is open until Nov 1, 2023.

You can include public input here — please do, as there's already transphobic comments on this proposal.

regulations.gov/document/EEOC-

Proposed additions to the EEOC guidance include:

"Sex-based harassment includes harassment on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, including how that identity is expressed. Examples include epithets regarding sexual orientation or gender identity; physical assault; harassment because an individual does not present in a manner that would stereotypically be associated with that person’s gender; intentional and repeated use of a name or pronoun inconsistent with the individual’s gender identity (misgendering); or the denial of access to a bathroom or other sex-segregated facility consistent with the individual’s gender identity."
