I’m moving/moved and got a chance to rearrange my bookshelf. Very happy with how it looks. Happy to discuss any titles that catch your eye!
I recently watched a video on exactly this. Thought it was pretty well done.
DEI and the Rise of the Modern Slur by Garrison Hayes on YouTube.
I don’t think I’d correct you at all! I think that act of at least questioning, or maybe double checking is a better phrase, that your sense of self actually matched the person you are in your head is absolutely not exclusive to queer people. I think neurodivergent people also deal with this, particularly those diagnosed later in life. There’s a huge set of language you learn once you realize you are neurodivergent that is there to help you give yourself more tools and grace to grow into the person you truly are. This is true for much more than just queerness and neurodivergence, but those are some good examples of people that often go through some in depth soul searching to become confident in who they are or want to be and have to develop very specific language to discuss those things.
I’ll try to keep tracking down more, but these were some tabs I had open.
I am also grieving the loss of REI as my go to outdoor supplier. I’d personally say Huckberry isn’t a full replacement as REI also does climbing gear, cycling, small boats, not just apparel and camping. I’m working on a list of my own of different businesses specifically to replace REI, because the reality is it was near unique in its offerings as a one stop shop.
I’ve got a bit of a back log to post, but I figured I would start strong with one of my better sourdough bakes.
Hello!
I'm Arkhive (they/she), one of your new mods and I've just got a sort of update from the mod team.
We, the mods of Onehundredninetysix (hereby referred to as OneNineSix for my own sanity), would like to introduce ourselves. The members of the mod team that are interested will post a comment below this post and hopefully mingle a bit. Something that has come up in our discussions is a general interest in owning our actions, even in online spaces. That means putting people behind the names you see in the sidebar.
As the OneNineSix community coalesces, things have been quite good from our end. While we could be quicker at processing reports, a lot of that stems from us discussing choices as a group before making final decisions...and probably a bit more fear to use our power than is good for us, but time I'm sure will fix that proceeds to power trip. We are absolutely not infallible, and we also strive to admit wrong when necessary and work to rectify it. There is a degree of patience that necessarily extends both directions between mods and users, and in the end we are all users of the same space. We will work to be good stewards of this space for all those being good stewards with us.
And so! This thread. If this idea goes over poorly, please take it out in the replies to my comment, and we will assess and hopefully the other mods will dive in on the discussion too. We have also floated the idea of an irregularly occurring, semi-regular, mod chat thread. My pitch is for "Modly Mondays" but its still an idea in its infancy and feedback is welcome;)
Thank you for your time, thank you for the memes (the cat included), and I'll ~~remove~~ see you ~~from~~ in the comments.
TL;DR I'm Arkhive (they/she), I'm a mod, there's more of us (surprise!), and we'd like to introduce ourselves in the comments.
Side note: I realize this is being posted on a day there are protests happening across the US and presumably throughout the world. While this is not an explicitly US comm, I want to remind people to stay safe. Know your rights, know the ACLU phone number, have an exit plan, go as a group, and don't talk to cops. We keep us safe.
For some reason I can only find stock images of this pill case. I have it on good authority it makes a satisfying clicking noise and my gay, neurodivergent ass wants one.
Ideally not an Amazon link, I deleted my account a bit ago and I do not plan to make a new one.
UPDATE: It would seems this is a prepackaged way E is sometimes distributed. Thanks to folks that pointed this out.
Somehow this was a fitting first screen out of the terminal…
I could have sworn I wasn’t wearing thigh highs a moment ago…huh continues typing
I realize that the lines of text in a normal file have gaps between then, which almost instantly renders this impossible, but I’ll ask anyway. I’m looking for a way to get diagrams like ASCIIFlow in my notes. I’d even settle for a dedicated tab/filetype similar to canvas. My use case here is input with a stylus on a tablet and the original site struggles. Just doing weird things with highlighting random text, because the whole page is text. Canvas kind of does what I want, but there is a speed and elegance to ACSII flow, with the added ability to copy the result as text. I often use Obsidian to write documentation, and various system diagrams often come up. Being able to use characters rather than an image would be great.
In case the “” in the title aren’t clear, I cannot actually offer any financial compensation for this, should a plugin actually be made.
This looks great! Willing to share the recipe?
