This whole thing about nuclear trains reminds me of something I got caught up in a while ago. I'm a Trekkie, and I ran across a diagram of a starbase, with dimensions (based on size in relationship to ship, etc.). I started a spreadsheet, it got more and more complex.
Those things are HUGE. 2,000 acres of parkland. Hundreds of millions of square feet in deck space. Nominal population of over 2,000,000 people, and that's with low population density. I still have it, somewhere.
A big part of masking is often eating things you don't actually like in my experience. NT people can get really angry if you don't eat something they made, and often are aggressive if you split up food and only eat parts.
Eating is often a very sensitive topic, and for many people is often a very stressful time. If it isn't for you, please try to remember to always be careful and think about what you say.
On top of that, a lot of people love focusing on food when gathering together. Going out for coffee, a dinner-date, and the movies, are just a few examples. This may be excluding some people who get stressed in these types of situations, so it might be a good idea to keep other ideas/suggestions ready.
Welcome to #TransTuesday!
Iโve put this one off for actual years because I just didnโt feel able to discuss it. But now I do! Maybe? I dunno, letโs find out together as we talk FINDING OUR TRANS STYLE.
For trans people who transition as adults, figuring out our style can be a giant puzzle. It was certainly that way for me.

Hi all! I don't know if I have any teacher friends on here (though if not maybe you know teachers!) but I'm trying to collect questions about AI (especially ethical/social implications) from kids and teenagers that I can answer. I have a feeling they will have very good questions that everyone can learn from. :) So help me out and share this with someone who might be talking to kids about this stuff? #ai #teachers https://forms.gle/61g8iSYswEZtZZGe9
When I was a kid I always so scared of the wicked witch in The Wizard Of Oz so I decided I would try something a bit more on the scary side, say hello to Hagatha!! Happy Tuesday:)

@ned call me old fashioned, but if my kids couldn't tell me something as important as who they are, and what they need to feel comfortable, I'd consider myself a failure as a parent and as a human being.
Kyle Rittenhouse is being sued by the estate of the mentally disturbed man Rittenhouse shot four times and killed.
Rittenhouseโs response:
โThese lawsuits are making it harder and harder for me to move on with my lifeโ
The amount of cope white men feel after doing something horrible could power a city
Do you know what else makes it hard to move on with your life?
Being murdered
What absorbs us, catches our attention, causes us to stop and completely focus? Is it a thought of our own, a moment of imagination and play? May it be so -- may we be enchanted and entranced by nature and life.

This is what happens when you ask your library about representation in #autism books. You get #ActuallyAutistic authors who are singers, actors, comedians & more. I've not read these but I'm really looking forward to. Talk to your library today.
My actual #trans agenda.
I want trans people to thrive.
I want trans kids to grow into trans adults.
I want us to feel safe at work, at home, and in our communities.
"This is exactly why many women do not come forward to report harassment or abuse.
"We are being asked to ignore what you can see on film, and to dismiss a woman when she says she didn't consent. It is an outrageous situation."

@randahl I shared the post with my Ukrainian friend, and her first response was โWe are not allowed to film stuff like thisโ.
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.
