So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

The #txlege is trying to sneak in voucher bill #SB8 Mon after attempts to move it without a hearing were shot down. This time, they've added measures for more high-stake testing. This is what is at stake: @TexasObserver https://www.texasobserver.org/voucher-program-arizona-privitization-public-schools-disabilities/
I made this poll for important research purposes. Please boost so it can reach a wider audience.
Over on #birdsite, the hate group American College of Pediatricians claims they have been subject to a cyberattack when actually they just left 10,000 private files in a completely unsecured Google Drive. Aka they cyberattacked themselves: https://nitter.nl/ACPeds/status/1656630733966909441#m

I've watched it from the beginning, and I enjoy it, but hubs refuses to watch it - he says it feels exploitive. I understand why he feels that way.
It is a gimmick, with an overly-broad paintbrush, but just as I identified with The Doctor and Seven of Nine trying to figure out their humanity on Voyager, there are aspects of Sean Murphy figuring out how to "people" well that I relate to.
now feeling totally justified in never having seen this damn show https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2023/05/11/good-doctor-memes-autism/ @actuallyautistic #actuallyautistic

I talk to my dogs, and my parrot, sometimes in English, sometimes in canine/whistling. It's 50/50 which is more effective.
The parrot clearly understands intent, if not every word.
"You want to go upstairs and get some sleep?" A beak bump is yes, preening is no. When I head indoors, she anticipates the direction, with her wings spread and an occasional flap, until we're at her sleep closet door.

Oh yeah, totally. Itβs part of our egalitarian approach to status and hierarchy. Crows and dogs and cats and chickens are all people who just donβt speak our language, and afaict they usually appreciate our lame attempts to speak theirs.
Or as in your example, to speak ours at them unfiltered and vice versa, like Han Soloβs bilingual conversations with Chewbacca or Greedo or Jabba.
I don't know if we need AI to filter us out of the universe - distributed mobs of psychopaths will stop us long before artificial sentience emerges.

If you correct me by saying "Actually it's *an* historian," I will hit you with my pedantic stick.

Because CNN is owned by a MAGAt.
Wagner Founder Prigozhin:
"The flanks are crumbling. The front is failing. Everything is going on in a global tragedy for Russia."
βͺοΈThere was a flight of units of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation from the flanks.
βͺοΈToday alone we lost an area of 5 sq. km.
βͺοΈThe enemy occupied tactical heights from which Bakhmut is in full view.
βͺοΈWhen the Armed Forces of Ukraine enter Berkhovka, the gradual encirclement of Bakhmut will begin.

If I bought the leader of Wagner Group this t-shirt, do you think he'd wear it?
I nominate Stella Mudd (estranged wife of Harcourt Fenton Mudd) as the new #Twitter CEO.

Yes, and this is her husband, Marcus. Not Mark, or even Marc, but Marcus. He runs a "pray away the gay" center. Can you imagine?
oh wow... it's still there β€οΈ
(I used to frequent The Plough and the Stars, back in the '80's)
Okay, so this week?
I bought 4 bananas and I ate 4 bananas.
I did not eat none of them or one of them and then pretend that I would make banana bread when they got overly ripe.
I did not have to throw them away when they were no longer fit for bread of any kind.
I ate 4 bananas. On 4 different days.
I can take this as a win if I want. Fuck off.

We learned our lesson about publishing everyone's address.
I just got to 9%, I'm lacking $250 to 10%! Can you help me? I'm a Brazilian trans girl living paycheck to paycheck with a dream of doing my bottom surgery <3
