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.

You too can buy a Tesla, and support the main share holder Elon Musk, who abuses his social media platform to convince his 185 million followers, that the US justice system is corrupt, because his favorite criminal is brought to justice.
Or you could buy another car.
Do you have trouble communicating metric sizes to Americans?
If so, I have you covered!
I wrote this simple app where you type in a size (e.g. 1.2 meters) and it will output more useful units, e.g. "It is almost exactly the length of 7 medium-size bananas"
I freely admit I'm an "outside looking in" cis-guy, but it seems like "trans issues" are the issues created by people who have a problem with trans people. I mean, y'all just living your life and doing your best, like the rest of us, and some gomer comes in and starts telling you what is and isn't. Nobody needs that.
i swear the venn diagram of trans issues and neurodivergent issues is a just a fucking circle
- research to find a "cure" when there isn't one, nor will there ever be
- the best method of treatment involves accommodation and affirmation
- there is no single way to be either of these
y'all agree or nah?
Never mess with pediatricians
(they have very little patients)
Done. After 15+ years of driving hybrids, to reduce petrol consumption, both cars in the house are now EVs, to eliminate petrol consumption.
Next to go is the gas house heater (heat pump), gas water heater (heat pump), gas stove (induction cooktop). We installed solar 2 years ago, and generate more than the house and cars use. When we draw from the grid, we're using wind/battery stored solar. Except for plastic, we'll be fossil fuel free.
There is increasing disparity between what the public wants and what the politicians want.
The public wants litigation against #FossilFuel companies while politicians continue to approve extraction projects.
#FossilFuel companies don't just cause #ClimateBreakdown, they threaten #democracy.
Vote with your wallet as much as your ballot.

Now that the verdict is out, the right is acting predictably deplorably. But no matter! The good news around the conviction of Donald Trump far outshines their darkness. I walk through it all in todayβs piece. Check it out in the replies.
I'm forced to wonder if Elmo went insane, or if he's always been insane, but just recently stopped listening to his PR firm?
Elon Musk is the prime example of why billionaires are bad.
Not simply bad for society, but bad for the billionaire too. That kind of wealth drives people insane. It's not healthy.
Did you know that Democrats have consistently voted to PROTECT CONSUMERS from price-gouging corporations? They believe that we deserve affordable prices and fair treatment, not exploitation.
SCOTUS has no jurisdiction, it was state charges. Unless they try to argue that business fraud is a right protected under the Constitution.
WE MADE IT TO A YEAR!!!
Every Friday for the last 52 weeks I have added a new dancer to the canvas. I now claim my crown as Queen of Pointless Projects & hope that you all have a splendid weekend, if you possibly can π
It's election season and Tories are losing. I'm sure there's a lot of hot air blowing around UK, these days.
For the first time, wind power in the UK has exceeded fossil-fuel power for two consecutive quarters. #ShareGoodNewsToo https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/wind-overtakes-fossil-fuels-uk-electricity-generation-maguire-2024-04-23/
MAGA Haberman needs to go away.
And while we are on Katy Tur
ALSO the propaganda parrot magamaggot Maggie Haberman. She is a mouthpiece for the convicted felon Donald Trump. We have now heard it under oath, these two are Trump spokespeople
NEVER QUOTE THEM. Never ever forward ANYTHING they said
and keep boycotting the NY Times
Yet another reason to cheer for median, rather than average.
