I'm a blind ADHD activistic queer New Zealand expat. I'm also an Indigenous Australian (when imposter syndrome isn’t raring its ugly head.)
I have many different interests, some of which include music and various audio related things, books and hanging out with people.
I also love a good game when the mood strikes.

Thought for the day:

When I invented the New Management in the Laundry Files I was NOT trying to write predictive mode dystopian SF, dammit!

(Side-eyes the USA.)

The campest, gothest thing ever. I give you the skull mirrorball.

From #DadSaysJokes I haven't seen my twin brother since I left Australia.

We were separated at Perth.

client: we can't restore from our backup, can you help?

the 'backup': three years of logs stating that the backup failed (ssh error 'Permission denied (publickey))', no other data

me:

Yikes. Ren made quite the Dis track against a guy called Kujo. It's very angry.

Back to basics, tactile energy management by Sensory Spirit

This episode is part of a series going back to basics exploring important spiritual concepts that might not be so easy for us to understand as blind people. This episode presents a tactile exercise that you can do with one piece each of Jet and Amber for energetic protection as well as replenishment of earth and sky energy. It’s great for people who have trouble visualizing or may not have a safe place to be outside. I also introduce both our new interactive WhatsApp community and  Mastodon presence. If you do try the exercise Feel free to comment on Mastodon, WhatsApp, Facebook, Discord, or even send an email to [email protected]. If you want to talk with others about your spiritual journey or any other tips and tricks you might like to share, please join the WhatsApp community at: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GWA2B2NbYsW44lWGM9BRZ2 Follow and interact with Sensory Spirit on Mastodon at: [email protected] Join the Discord server at: https://discord.gg/f2sAegnCeS and follow Sensory spirit at: facebook.com/oursensoryspirit for updates.

Whenever you talk to another person, think about the fact that you, as well as them, as well as anyone else you talk to that day is here because their ancestors survived wars, famines, more wars, life-changing events, perhaps a country move or twelve and just marvel that humans survive anything at all.
Each and every person likely has something in their passed that could have killed them if they were just one second too late to move one way, or went somewhere one minute earlier than some other thing.
The dance of life and energy it takes to be here right now at this very moment is something special.
Just my Saturday morning observation.
OK hear me out.
I teach on zoom, and today I tried their #AI recap feature.
It isn't stupid, it isn't useless, it is ridiculously useful. Genuinely.
I am actually blown away right now.
I know people either have an AI hard-on or hard-off if you hate it, but there are times in your life when something honestly impresses, and for me, this is it.

Do you think Jeff Bezos sleeps naked, or with pajamazon?

GOODNIGHT

I fucking resent the suggestion that I'm licking billionaire boot because I am sometimes forced to choose accessibility over principals. Please, tell me more about how I have no good reason not to switch to Linux. I just love hearing about how disabled people are invisible to you.
