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.
https://www.regulations.gov/document/EEOC-2023-0005-0001
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."

oh god Songtradr’s takeover of #Bandcamp has ended up being way worse than anyone expected much more quickly. tl;dr: Songtradr isn’t honoring the union, has locked out employees from critical systems, and is basically trying to steamroll everyone in the handoff.

At the very least this means this #bandcampfriday might not be so great, and most likely everything about bandcamp is going to shit very rapidly.
@DotRook but alas no sheep
@mcc unless you hit it accidentally
very important, that feature!
Random wondering of the day: Does anyone use "centigram"? I always see either gram or milligram.
Actually centi and hecto seem to get skipped a lot in general. I've only ever seen the later in "hectares" which...doesn't actually use it, just looks like it does
@scalzi @charleshbryan Translations would drive me mad as an author. It must take so much trust, given that for more of those you probably can't check their work yourself
dream wtfery
Brain apparently decided today was Crossover Day, as the last dream of the night featured dragging a corpus-infected Joker into the Underdark which looked more like Hell from Good Omens but better lit
@spottyfox Even in this power outlet F.O.E.!
@Momentrabbit eruf. hugs

Congratulations to everyone who read this vintage-1976 _Peanuts_ at just the right moment to gain a desire they couldn't begin to understand for years.
@shoq Only the first one rendered
@Gankra https://www.eurogamer.net/gabe-newell-right-declare-windows-8-a-catastrophe
Basically the concern from a lot of devs is MS wanted a thing like the app store, where they take a huge cut and lock out other methods of distrubution
@Gankra No, that's about right unless you count things like Steam.
Partially because well trusting the MS Store seemed like a not great idea
