@ScottSoCal @georgetakei Would hate to be the new CEO who has to try to actually make the company work while Musk is constantly forcing them to do every ridiculous thing that pops into his mind.
This is your year non-trans folks. This is the year
to be the one to call out grandma for misgendering your non-binary cousin,
to call out how fucked up your uncles transphobic jokes are, or
to tell your mom that her excuses for deadnaming someone arenβt good enough.
Itβs time to make this your problem. How are you going to stand up for trans people this holiday?

Pretty much this. Musk doesn't have to be in a CEO position to keep pulling strings just to see what unravels.
Average power use for my house is ~25KWH per day, I deliberately got a larger system because I anticipate adding a couple of BEV vehicles in the near future. Probably 1 electric-only and 1 plug-in hybrid. 2 days before the shortest day of the year, I'm still making more power than my house uses. I wonder what it'll look like during the summer?

#muskolini embracing the antivax bs is classic propaganda. If you followed me on Twitter you know my son is autistic and I did my best to fight the antivaxers for a long time. In the early days it was the far left promoting that bs. Earned my first Twitter timeout for telling Jill Stein to go fuck herself. Rinse and repeat what works is their playbook. Their playbook is dangerous and deadly to actual lives and democracy.
@scrumble_eggs I bet the cosmic void is full of owls.
new server, new #Introduction! Hi, Iβm Kate. I live in #spokane, WA, which is my hometown. As a teenager I moved to Germany and spent about 12 years there, in Hamburg and Berlin. All my formal education was in urban planning and design, but I also did a lot of neighborhood-based organizing for housing justice and against fascism. These days Iβve somehow ended up as a full-time community organizer assisting communities that are dealing with all the consequences of white nationalism in the US.

Bees are hairy for good reason.
When bees forage on flowers they automatically catch and collect fine pollen grains on the many hairs all over their bodies. This βefficiency by defaultβ makes them ideal pollinators.

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.
