Please add descriptions to your images.

There are visually impaired users floating about the federverse and they deserve descriptions.

A simple description of "airplane" or "cute Kitty" is sufficient. You can do more if you like, but at least add a succinct, basic description if possible.

the idea that gun control will prevent a popular uprising in the USA is a fantasy.

Historically, most uprisings have been started by people taking guns from military stockpiles, not from their own homes

In addition to this, most gun owners in the United States are not socialists or anarchists, many of them are reactionary or worse.

and to those who say its hypocritical to get gun control while the military still has guns, limiting the total amount of murder machines is still an admirable goal and not worth standing against in the name of whataboutism

Isn't it ironic how the largest open source code platform (GitHub) is itself proprietary and closed source?

Is Sesame Street urban fantasy?

Game dev exquisite corpse:

Each person gets one week to do or add whatever: graphics, music, code (although you're discouraged from rewriting all the code others have written even if it's dumb) and then you send it off to the next person without comment.

You could all keep your own changelogs that can be added to one another afterwards to see who did what.

Keep on going in cycles until you've all cobbled something together.

Then send it to the wide world, or at least to me~

how much you wanna bet that ready player one is gonna have a sequel and it's gonna be called ready player two

ok! So if 15 people send me $10 than I will be able to pay my rent and I won't be homeless at the end of the month. Anything helps you don't have to send a lot but if everyone gave a little bit I would be safe.I'm so happy for all o the help I have revived and I hope one day I can repay everyone who has even just boosted my statuses.

My continuing adventure

On most days my gender is an anime weapon.

For people new to #mastadon, some #tips on mastadon compared to twitter:
1. Toot = tweet
2. boost = retweet
3. favorite = like
4. No general #search, use hashtags!
5. local timeline == only switter
6. federated timeline == can contain stuff from other mastadon servers

A recent interviewer asked about my experience with Windows. I use Windows for work and Linux at home.

And I caught myself a millimeter away from saying "Windows in the streets, Linux in the sheets."

I didn't. But they all knew that's what I meant.

The only real purposes of a gender field are marketing data and automated pronoun systems. The former is unnecessary and the latter is better served by not hiding it behind a gender label and just letting people pick a set of pronouns.
