I work in and love tech except when I hate it (which is more and more often), in the much maligned and overlooked realm of QA. I love doing and watching sports (#running, #climbing, #tennis, and #ninjawarrior) and if I actually piled my TBR pile it would probably be taller than me 😬 Firmly #antifascist, #anticapitalism, and pro #DefundThePolice.

Now the way the Internet Archive is doing mastodon is how more organisations and celebs should be joining the fediverse!

They have a dedicated in house instance, which lets you identify official staff, and gives them control and security over their content, whilst also allowing people and instances to opt in or out of interacting with them

Kudos for doing it right @internetarchive!

I guess the preference is really contextual for me. Like, if you just did a super long hike or something else hot and sweaty outside, a nice cold shower beer is pretty amazing. But this morning, when I was tired and pretty stiff/sore from my workout last night, shower coffee really just hit right

I can't decide what's better, shower beer or shower coffee*. Both are frickin delightful though

(To clarify, drinking a beer/coffee whilst in the shower, because I guess there are probably kinda bad directions the kind could go with this)

Hmmm, looks like next step if getting my feet under me here is finding a new instance to call home. A project for the weekend.

I think much of my issue around the Content Warning culture on Mastodon, is the vocabulary. "Content Warning" has a very specific meaning in other contexts. Here, it is more like "Content Filter" or "Subject Line," to give readers a choice to expand or not.

This feels wrong, because of other contexts where majority folks have tried to express trauma or pain at even having to hear about the racism that impacted me. Feels very much like "Ban teaching civil rights, so white kids don't feel bad."

Lets support people on here who've been cleaning up for a while. Ones I've learned about are @Are0h and @CaribenxMarciaX.

Really upset to see all the stories about racism and people getting harassed here within days/hours of sign-up. Trying to get oriented here and then figure what I can do to help. Might start poking at the code base/docs to get a better handle on how that works - I know tech isn't the silver bullet, but I know it better than I know people and can maybe help implement ideas from those who are the reverse.

Oh yeah, and I guess there's an important election here in Alberta as well, but...that whole thing is just so disgusting and rigged that it's hard to motivate myself to even look. #ABElection
