@academicchatter I'm thinking anti-ableist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, etc.
Actual inclusive as possible for us to achieve online conference-planning. Pushing the date far enough out that we can do this without stressing the hell out and with enough time to fundraise for ASL interpreters, captioning, etc.

@YLee Yes and yes - and that all sounds super noble and admirable. In reality, it becomes an expensive competitive fancy dress comp where staff and students dress as entirely non-book related characters (films/superheroes etc.) and it does nothing to encourage a genuine love of reading.

I wasn't aware of the cosplay aspect to it. Reading is probably a little too quiet and internal for modern society. There has to be some lavish, external (read: Instagram-worthy) display to get people interested.
I released my first game on Steam and got rid of impostor syndrome!
My first game Mushy Score is out on Steam! I have been creating games since I was a child but never felt like a real game dev. Now I finally have a game that I can show to other people.
Mushy Score is a 2D Roguelike where you fight against endless waves of enemies. Collect points and try to get a high score! I am super exited for the release !

Just bought and played it and had a lot of fun! I love the frequent powerups and the variety of the monsters. The first time I saw the toad was truly terrifying! Lol. I'd love to see some kind of powerup that helps with arial enemies. Maybe the plants can shoot upwards, too? Or you can? Or a flying plant? Or a second bullet that goes up at 45 degrees? Anyway, well worth the super low asking price. Looking forward to playing more! It works perfect on the #SteamDeck, too! @games
The marketing fluff doesn’t, but they actually did increase upload speeds. Mine went from 10 to 20 up. And here is the DSL reports forum thread from when this round started.
Also, they are testing larger increases. I could get 100 up today, if I had a supported modem.
So, check your actual plan and modem to see what you have now.
Decent base pay, a fair amount of pto, and a stellar 401k match are my absolute requirements. My wants are unnecessary as I’ll put up with a lot if my needs are met.
Although in my field this was all achieved through the power of a union.
As an #autistic user of your website, I'm working hard enough just to cope with reading your text. Please don't also make me cope with stuff that moves or slides or fades too. Just present me with a static, stable thing to parse in my own time. And don't have things that move or slide (eg. fancy navbars) when I move my pointer (which I may be doing as a reading aid).
And here on Mastodon I've had to mute so many people because they use animated gifs in their user name.
Unfortunately, @trunksapp - which is the best Mastodon client I've found so far for my needs - doesn't stop these from moving, flashing, flickering or whatever the hell else the user thought would be amusing.
