"Welcome to the Infinite Library. We have all books that could possibly exist."
"Do you have any I could have written?"
"Yes, we have all of them."
"Are they... are they any good?"
"Some potentially possible readers love them."
"Thank you. I'd better try to write then."

a friend of mine who spends a LOT of his time picking up plastic waste from parks, rivers, streets, etc. had a good idea. He decided to photograph the non biodegradable waste and tag companies on social media with it. So if he finds a plastic Subway cup, he tells Subway about it with the message "is this yours?" I dig this because it's not something that blames the consumer. It puts the blame where it belongs: on the producer.

Join me on Friday when my friend and colleague Elke will finally release her new comic “Love Migration”.
Short, autobiographical episodes follow Elke falling in love with Russian queer activist Masha in St. Petersburg and their subsequent decision to live together in Berlin.
Elke will be presenting at this year’s International Womens’ Day celebrations of Quarteera, a Berlin-based Russian-speaking LGBTQ* organization. So also expect Russian queerfeminist standup comedy, open mike and much more!

Im bayerischen Schweinfurt ist ein 22jähriger aus Somalia geflüchteter im Polizeigewahrsam verstorben. Eine rassistische Tatmotivation kann nicht ausgeschlossen werden. https://www.br.de/nachrichten/bayern/22-jaehriger-asylbewerber-in-haftzelle-verstorben,RJBZHbV
"You're a woman!" he said.
"Yes?"
"You can't use a sword!"
"But I do."
"Swords are manly."
"How?"
He blushed. "They're long and hard... and, uh, thrust..."
"How is that manly?"
He died of embarrassment. She could have cut him down - she had a sword after all - but why bother?

The Gender Census 2019 is now open until 25th March!
https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/gendercensus2019/
It's for anyone whose genders (or lack thereof) aren't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and the results are useful in academia, business, and self-advocacy.

have you ever noticed that someone post a screenshot of text without providing an image description, preventing you from being able to read it? or maybe they posted a huge amount of text that just can't possibly be described with the image description feature?
simply tag @OCRbot in a direct reply to the image. it will download the image and scan it using tesseract OCR to output the text contained in the image!
because OCRbot runs on fedi.lynnesbian.space, it has a character limit of 65535, so even the longest images should work OK!
check the reply to this image to see it parsing the attached screenshot!
Hello nice community,we have a big announcement to make! 🎉 Halcyon.social went down one year ago short before we took over the project.It was a huge centralized service using this code.Starting today it's online again - Not as a centralized #Halcyon instance but as a information page with a improved instance list and much more.You can visit it at https://www.halcyon.social .We hope you like it 😍
Some accessibility lessons:
- Excessive symbols and emojis (e.g. in names) are annoying. Stupid zalgo or math characters or whatever are read one by one.
- Links are spelled out with all those "slash slah colon" stuff.
