They're going to come up with some definition that works for the right like "You woke it when you see it" but hopefully non-Fox adults have been embarrassed sober on this.
What does woke actually mean?
It's a craft beer way of saying the n-word. And everyone knows it and the right loves that they don't have to admit that.

It's almost as if they never really thought it through. A catch-all for right-wing grievance doesn't quite work.
We have a next-generation spacesuit! Axiom Space has unveiled their brand new spacesuit, designed for Artemis astronauts who will return to the lunar surface.

In 1933, the Detroit News wrote this condescending headline about Frida Kahlo. #FridaKahlo #condescending #ArtHistory
I was let go from my job yesterday. If you know anyone that has a need for a creative yet pragmatic #AgileCoach, #ScrumMaster, #ProductManager, #ProductOwner type of #Agile worker, let me know! (Boosts for reach appreciated!)
For the sake of empathy, I ask you all to take a second to consider things from the perspective of Conservatives:
Inflation is out of control. Housing is unaffordable. The healthcare system is broken. Everyone is drowning in student debt. Ecosystems are collapsing. We're constantly on the brink of war.
So naturally, one would ask, how can we even hope to solve these daunting and complex issues if we do not have detailed information on the genitals of every American citizen?
Properly jaw-dropping moment this evening: an e-mail from my US publisher saying that "since it's a science book", they'll publish Blue Machine WITH METRIC UNITS. So I don't have to convert everything to foot pounds per square elephant. In YEARS of writing for the US, this is the first time I have ever had a hint that there is a world outside feet and inches. Progress! #Books #Metric #Science
My #Fitbit recorded my 10,000th step today while I was carrying my chocolate, caramel, and pecan pie to the couch. Because staying active is an important part of health π
The Mastodon community is so accepting, supportive, and generous. As a tooter with quite a few awesome people following me, one of the ways I try to add value to the community is to help others find their people. With this in mind, I tend to boost every introduction toot I see. I may also do this upon request.
#Follow liberally.
#Boost often.
#Love the Fediverse.
Hereβs me with an actual decent Australian politician.

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.
