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.

I wonder if it was on land or water.

One of the things my team @ProPublica does is run our Nonprofit Explorer database. Itβs super popular and useful, but it relies on IRS data to run.
So weβre in a unique position to both see that the IRS is failing at its duty to make this data available and also to be able to report on it as news: https://www.propublica.org/article/irs-hasnt-released-nearly-half-million-nonprofit-tax-records

Several racist incidents targeting Black people occurred this high school football season around the nation. Administrators in some cases have used these incidents to start conversations about race.

As children in Bosnia prepare gift boxes for their peers living through war in Ukraine, their parents remember the time a generation ago when they were the ones receiving the little moments of joy sent by strangers. https://t.co/weKCN6Xq3u
Please boost! So today I turn [redacted] and I'm looking for electronic music suggestions! I like being exposed to new music, and while not everything will be ofmy taste, I'll never find new music if not exposed to it. EDM, Techno, Dance, Trance, synthwave, etc and all subgenres are welcome! Please link a YT or Spotify link.
I'll go first:

If this doesn't make your day a little brighter, then you are a cruel and heartless person.
Dog charity let's the dogs choose their own Christmas presents.
Things Iβve noticed here so far. 1. Length of posts is long enough to make a point without assuming to much prior knowledge or droning on. Nice. 2. Very few whacky follower/following ratios, not too many huge egos. 3. Canβt translate posts. Weβre good for three languages in this house and then we have to give up. Little disappointing. 4. The general attitude seems to be *donβt be a jerk face*. Hope it lasts but the trolls will come. 5. Wanted, leftist views from all over. International iykwim π
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made an impassioned and emotional plea to Congress on Wednesday for continued American support against Russiaβs unrelenting assault, speaking personally and passionately about why Ukraine needed more aid and weapons. https://wapo.st/3YM4mO2
I canβt stop thinking about the Afghan girls Robotic team knows as Afghan Dreamers. The girls with minimal resources were able to design and build low cost ventilators and their expertise were used during Covid crisis. Roya, a member of Afghan dreamers was ranked among Timeβs 100 most influential people for her work in building internet classrooms in Afghan high schools.

Auschwitz is a place that shows where hatred, #antisemitism and contempt for a fellow man led people decades ago.
It is also a place where we should reflect on our own responsibility for the world we live in. The warnings of the past should be a key to better future.
Help us commemorate the victims & preserve memory.

State Sen. Jennifer McClellan on track to become the first Black woman to represent Virginia in Congress.

I just watched Zalensky, the Churchill of our generation, deliver a brilliant address to the US Congress. I also watched the camera cut to infamous Republicans that sat on their hands during the ovations of this great man. It was a disgusting display of fealty to their true master in Moscow. May they reap what they sow.

The idea of a daring wartime trip by Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Washington had percolated for months before the visit was revealed hours ahead of the Ukrainian presidentβs arrival. Then things quickly fell into place. https://t.co/FcsIQec3Pk
Can we also take a moment to note that "woke", as used here, was originally a Black American term for being aware of systemic racism, and in just a few years, the US right turned it into a totally content-free sneer? And the entire English-speaking media basically just ran with it, to the extent that you now hear it used in _Finnish_?
Because that's white supremacy for you. Criticism, even awareness, of the racist power structure will not be tolerated.
At the beginning of their regime in 2021, Taliban claimed they will guarantee womenβs rights βunder the limits of Islam.β But as a matter of fact they have made life a living hell for women in Afghanistan. The most recent atrocity is banning them from attaining university education.
