Someone asked Angela Davis why she specified that the 8 richest people in the world are men and 7 of them are white when they felt that the actual issue is that there are 8 people who own like half of the world's wealth.

She replied with one of the greatest explanations of intersectionality theory I've ever heard. I can't transcribe the whole thing in this toot, it was like over 5 minutes long, but the thrust was "Where do you see capitalism without racism?

Dead saxy hack: palm pilot collapsible keyboard to USB conversion.

These were great little keyboards, if needing a desk or hardback behind them. They collapse into purse size nicely.

Why don't YOU own Wikipedia, Gordon?

@alexandria "Situational awareness is key"
That... I don't know if that's just irony or if the devs are deliberately mocking people for not being able to use their shitty keybinds.

@alexandria Wow. Having the official game be worse than the demo is quite the feat.

Happy Autistic Pride Day! remember: autism is not a disease or a disorder to be cured: it is a spectrum of differences in the human brain more akin to a disability like deafness. Listen to autistic peoples self-advocacy, not the arguments of non-autists who want to eliminate them
