There's this weird Venn diagram of conservative, religious and homesteading (the community-rejecting weird racist survivalist type) obsession with sewing and crafts, so a lot of the time when you look up any kind of sewing tutorial or sewing product review, there's always the possibility that the seemingly nice and polite white woman doing the video is a Super Karen.
So every time you click on a video title and the presenter is a black woman? Such a good and warm fuzzy flood of relief!
Haven't been online much, been saving my energy for work. But yesterday I found out I'm going to England for a week, and I'm flipping between panic and shutdown.
Street view of Google Maps, to see where I'll be going (hotel and work). Getting familiar with sights, building, landmarks. Planning, planning, planning, even though I know it won't go 100% to plan. Researching the topics I'll be expected to cover, and the history of the program contract.
Atheist, Antitheist, and Antireligionist
I am an atheist (lack belief in or rejection of god$).
I am an anti-theist (rejection of or see theism as harmful, ie. belief in god$ or the concepts themselves as harmful).
I am an anti-religionist (rejection of or see religion as harmful, ie. all religion or religious philosophy is harmful including ones without gods).
This is not full definitions just quick examples.
Iβm no fan of AI, but AI David Attenborough narrating a Cybertruckβs symbiotic lifestyle is pretty damn funny.
Monday greetings to all of you beautiful beings of the Fediverse.
I hope you all had a great weekend with some rest, relaxation and fun thrown in for good measure.
I hope your Monday is too manic and that you can cruise smoothly into Tuesday as we begin to work our way towards another Friday.
Be well, take good care, and stay alive! Cheers!
Ukrainian #fencer Olha Kharlan auctions gold-winning saber to fund cutting-edge military equipment
The saber that secured #Ukraine gold in Paris #Olympics will now fund βShaBliaβ turrets, remote-controlled systems for machine guns. These turrets can protect machine gunners by allowing remote operation up to 100 meters (328 feet) away.
One of Germanyβs largest employers announces to boycott #Tesla because of Elon Muskβs behaviour:
"Elon Musk makes no secret of his support for Donald Trump. Trump has repeatedly described climate change as a hoax - this stance is in stark contrast to Tesla's mission to contribute to environmental protection through the production of electric cars
For this reason, ROSSMANN will no longer purchase Tesla vehicles for its fleet in the future."
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.
