People, please start using CamelCase (aka PascalCase) to break apart words in #HashTags.

It makes it easier to read and more #accessible. Single words are OK to keep lowercase, unless they are proper nouns 😉
It makes it easier to review if you're a #MastoAdmin.

CW: Ableist bullshit regarding neurotypical eye contact.

My favorite thing in the entire world is experiencing casual #ableism as part of mandatory security training.

The company that produced this garbage is called KnowBe4, and while this was an otherwise vaguely entertaining plot driven series of videos that feeds those forced to watch it reasonably decent basic information, this is high grade fucking bullshit.

"Oh, and know when you talk to her, remember to look her in the eye.
It just makes people feel that you're listening."

How about fuck off?
How about don't impose your ridiculous fucking social interaction requirements on others?
How about don't fucking project your stupid assumptions about what people may or may not be doing onto others based solely on fucking eye position?
How about if you want me to actually hear you, you're going to deal with me looking somewhere else that is low on the sensory input so I can focus on actually processing what is being said rather than performing like a fucking monkey for you?

And what the fuck does this have to do with information security training?

Did the people making this video think that throwing in some "how to mask" tips would be well received?

Literally the only thing my #ActuallyAutistic ass has taken away from this is a searing rage and reminder why I will never willingly enter an office again.

@deviantollam why is our industry like this, when large swathes of our industry are neurodivergent? What the fuck.

Need some hopeful news? One of the most important books I've read on climate solutions is Drawdown by Paul Hawken. I was relieved and excited to learn about so many people around the world devising strategies to not only reduce carbon emissions, but drawdown /sequester carbon that has accumulated in the atmosphere. My specific interest were the solutions related to agriculture and land use, but there is much more! https://www.drawdown.org/

I'm joining the #MastodonMigration to find a place where I can express my passion, awe, and curiosity for the natural world, here on Earth. I get nothing but "blank stares" on other social platforms when I share my alarm over the slowly collapsing equilibrium that has given us this unique paradise.

One of the most awesome hikes I've ever enjoyed was in the Redwoods National Forest in Northern California. One can hike for miles surrounded by these majestic giants.
