@frameacloud @anthracite heh, that's more of an ideal of how Yangle is supposed to function than a reality. :]

The straw bans literally mean disabled folks can't drink. And no, many can't use the shitty paper ones.

But I'm sure the sea turtles, who are far more affected by industrial plastic pollution than straws and which nobody seems eager to stop, will appreciate it.

Cue gatekeepers all "give them to people who are disabled only." Because they have to look sick.

@frameacloud @anthracite see THIS is why we need a truly customizeable, responsive, non-horrible PDA. it would be *trivial* to set Yangle to "okay be quiet for 60 minutes and then beep to tell me when the time is up, also look like a dragon and make the beep a rar." because Yangle would KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN AND DO *THAT*, and not try to sell you timers on Amazon. :|

@frameacloud @anthracite I have a Death Star kitchen timer--when time is up it makes the "blowing up Alderaan" explosion. :D but now I really want a dragon timer that dings, yeah...

PSA to White Folks about White Centered Racism 

If a person of color trash talks white people and you find yourself hurt and upset by it, bare the following in mind:

The way that made you feel is an emotion that most people of color experience every single day. They have to carefully bottle that emotion up and hide it away from public view.

If you see a glimpse of that anger, don't try to police it. Instead try to quietly empathize with where it comes from.

If you do, it won't be about you. ♥️

@anthracite hmph. there's several hourglass timers with dragons on them... this is clearly a niche that needs to be exploited!! now if only I had the faintest idea how to make such a thing...

@anthracite I would so use that, yes. gnrrgh... what was the name of the dragon-themed catalog from the 90s that I loved so much... if it was "Dancing Dragon" then it's gone. but now I have a Quest! or something.

@ada I like how the picture only shows two people. "these are the people who are welcoming Trump. they were all we could find..."

@Leucrotta @KawaSeadrake here's a page about it--I'm not sure if it would be helpful/applicable but it's a place to start. :|

TIL There’s a robot that can take your plant into the sunlight or back to shade as needed. It can also do a dance when it’s time to water the plant and even play with you

How very #Cyberpunk

We caught up on Steven Universe tonight. [spoilery?] 

@KawaSeadrake @anthracite oh, true, white diamond! though my belief is that White is the diamond that's formed when the other three fuse, which is why we haven't seen her yet. ;)
