#GameInfekt - Das Spiel ist soooo hübsch! Erinnert total an ältere JRPGs und der Charme kommt echt gut rüber. Der Soundtrack ist auch super. Freue mich schon sehr auf den Release Ende August. 💗
Time for another Touhou hijack. This time it's this cooking action/sim! It's liked by a lot of people even if they're not particularly into Touhou. I highly recommend it. Very unique game.
On 24 July we have issued our first volume. It includes a nice editorial piece outlining the journal's life story and our future plans and hopes (for Tektonika #DOAJ and #openscience).
CN because the idea seems to frighten some people ;)
after having the "kind of to do" item in my head for quite a while, I finally put some blocker events in my calendar. they're for the course I'm going to be co-teaching next semester:
the course timeslots themselves, amd 2 more slots for looking at assignments for that course.
next: think about a timeslot for (remote and in-person) office hours so students can approach me with their questions. #pascodaGoDrrr
I have several great ideas for thesis topics and I hope the titles/synopses are okay for my professor because I would LOVE to supervise bachelor's/master's students on these topics - and then have them publish something on a serious topic with a salty, fun title 😁 #pascodaGoDrrr
... @opensuse Project turns 18 years today in 3,5 hours
also @debian turning 30 next week, was thinking of doing something in Stockholm but signed up to an @android developer meetup at Klarna instead and got busy
"In the waning days of the Cold War, Rainer Sonntag helped fuel a neo-Nazi movement that still plagues Germany today. He was also a Communist spy—and worked for Vladimir Putin."
Nope we have a big Nazi problem and most of us learn that the only right way to go about it is to be very self critical with our history and to call those racist dipshits out whenever we can
Also
Half of Germany where commie spys
That’s a hell of a statement. I wish I could show you how wrong you are. Just look at the origin of our past terrorist attacks and you will see a trend and a priority list for us.
If you look close enough to all the bullshit destabilising western countries, there’s always Russian influence at the end of the string.
Even Trump election was made with Russian influence, which caused a huge division in the west. That’s the type of strategy they used in countries like Ukraine (worked until they launched a full invasion).
REALLY sick of hearing about how you have the experience to make value judgements about the experience of being diagnosed as a child.
I get that the diagnosis is a revelation.
And it is. I agree .
But i want to puke remembering how that "privilege" was used to justify telling kids "IF you manage to prove that you are able to emulate a person you can be awarded honorary adult status"
Otherwise you count as something between a child and an animal
Now im going to address the reason i made this thread
The phrase
"Aspie Supremacy"
First off
The concept of subtypes was CREATED to force "useful" autistic kids to compete for the privilege of being allowed to survive.
The fucked up messaging designed to make us desperate to prove we are NOT useless was built in on PURPOSE.
And that message ALSO is reinforced by ableist thinking in general.
Diagnosis or no, internalized ableism ISN'T avoidable
And here's the part which adult dx people are NOT going to like.
If there WAS a hierarchy within the autistic community based solely on being autistic.
The privileged category would be people who masked well enough to reach adulthood without being outed.
If You were diagnosed as being autistic without needing much support before autism was recognized as a SPECTRUM...
Most white people would have been labeled either high functioning or aspies
@BBC_News_Labs Why don't you have a main @ BBC or BBCNews account like you do on Tw*tter? That seems like the first thing everyone would be looking for.
@BBC_News_Labs@NIH_LLAMAS What are your metrics for it going well? If it's views/followers/engagement then you won't get much until you offer things that people want, like BBC News.

Oh goodness, one of my favorite genres! I love "The Years of Rice and Salt" by Kim Stanley Robinson. The story looks at a world where Europe is destroyed by the Black Death. What makes it so fascinating is that Robinson shows how world history would have unfolded in roughly the same fashion with some new locations or focuses. For example, a Renaissance takes place in Samarkand and many cities in our North America are in the same place.
