Yes, when you were born is pretty important. I was born in the mid 50s. If they'd discovered at that time that I was autistic, I would've been put into an asylum and never seen the light of day again.

Thank the Gods they missed me! I was finally diagnosed aged 63, about 5 years ago. After I retired!

So I lived most of my life, and all of my *working* life, not knowing, unable to work out why I was so *very* unlikeable.

Happy Star Trek Day!

Live Long and Prosper. 🖖

Elon Musk is what happens when you give someone with the temperament of a chihuahua and the empathy of a jellyfish access to unlimited wealth and power and then tell him that he deserves to rule the world. #XMarksTheMoron

Christopher Wray warns about how many Russian spies are in this country.

Maybe someone should tell him that most of them are the leaders of the Republican Party.

Don’t mind us re-introducing ourselves....

Had a scary start of my day. I was brushing my teeth and looked in the mirror and there was some crazed looking old man looking back at me foaming at the mouth.

Hesci, estonko! Amy Warne here. Indigenous food sovereignty and health equity are my passions, as well as increasing Native visibility at all levels of gov't. I just ran for office and am the current chair of the OK County Dem Party. I work with entities such as the Regional Food Bank, HungerFree OK, First Americans Museum, & the Metropolitan Library. I represent less than 1% of Indigenous Dietitians in the field. I play soccer for fun and grow food to help nourish my community. #introductions

@ScottSoCal this is precisely the point my comment wants to make! Where is this “intrinsic” value in some shiny metal, less than 7% of which is actually used for industries.

Nazis are shitstains, pass it on

Nothing has intrinsic value other than food and weapons.

When I was 18 I worked for Gallup Polls. I spent a week or so calling people to ask them:

Who is your favorite actor - John Ritter or
Ken Wahl?

I learned two things:

I learned that you can't trust polls, and I learned who Ken Wahl was

now has close to 4K followers. It would be nice to see the account's audience here grow even further - it'll help us make the case to treat the fediverse as a first class platform in support of our mission to protect journalists and whistleblowers.

Beyond press freedom advocacy, we post digital security tips and updates, with an eye to protecting journalists, newsrooms and whistleblowers. Many of those tips are generally applicable to anyone who wants to stay safe online. :)

I’m inspired by the cool bags @geekmomprojects has been making, so I wanted to share this quilted pouch with a pull-up strap that I made for @arturo182.

It was super fun to learn straight line quilting with a walking foot. But I’ll be honest, the pouch wasn’t easy to make. I mixed up the right and wrong sides, even wrongly aligned the pull-up mechanism but it worked out in the end. Just had to rip apart the seams, and rebuild it altogether 😅

The German word "Sack" can mean:

- sack, bag

- man (derogatory)

The German word "gerissen" means:

- torn, ruptured

- sly, shrewd

So, when Germans say "Der alte Sack ist gerissen" it can mean:

- "The old bag is damaged"

or

- "That old fart is clever!"

Enjoy our language!
