I do various things and partake in various activities. Generally a sci-fi fan. He/him/his, xe/xem/xyr.
i think i just see most eye to eye with ride enthusiasts who can appreciate the full spectrum of ride experiences on all thrill levels. like obviously at work i talk to all sorts of people and i can hold a conversation with thrill diehards as much as people who are scared of carousels, right

Stop believing the horseshit urbanist view that "we can't make this anymore".

We are choosing not to make comfortable seats anymore. There is a monumental difference.

People writing the government bid proposal specification documents are dropping the ball here. MFGs build to a bid spec.

i really think we're past the point where it has ever been appropriate to call people fascists over fandom discourse

You hate Disney because you’re homophobic.

I hate Disney because they closed Dinoland USA.

We are not the same.

one of my biggest pet peeves about any sort of discourse involving any sort of development that will help people at all (irl or online) is the exact nimbys who fight development at every turn being like "we've been promised this for decades and it isn't here >:(" THAT'S YOUR FAULT

i think they closed dinosaur because dr seeker and dr marsh sent bob iger back to get hit by the asteroid and possibly chomped up by a carnotaurus

apparently i have to start blocking people over train opinions. ftr any variation of "Japan has better trains because they are inherently more respectful than Americans, Americans don't deserve functional transit" gets you blocked

Creating conditions where men, women, and children are suffering and/or dying because they are afraid to seek medical care outside of their homes is also violence.

Looking forward to the day when we win hard enough to not need articles like “what are the paramilitaries spraying at you?: a helpful guide”
Here's how to identify some crowd control munitions, canisters of which federal agents have left on the ground after deploying them against people in Minnesota. bit.ly/3YWp1jE

purge the ICE fascists from your community today
Every day there’s a new post that’s like “ the community of guys that have a big latex suit attached to a vacuum that makes them immobile in a sexual way have come out against ICE”

i know people can't really control how much they sweat but can we all agree that handing someone a headset with the ear protector so sweaty it feels like a sponge with 0 attempt to dry it off, sanitize it, or replace the fucking ear protector is rude as hell

#OnThisDay Jan 18 1945: New streamlined "President's Conference Committee" electric streetcars are introduced in Minneapolis. 381 women known as "Motorettes" drove the streetcars during World War 2, replacing men who were in military service. That year over 195 million passengers rode the system.

I believe speaker Mike Johnson was quoted as saying that ice is doing what it is designed to do...
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Okay so here is an abridged version of my story with HW.

We (me and @moonsheen.bsky.social) never submitted to Hiveworks. We were wined and dined and talked into it. I agreed mostly because neither me nor Alex had it in us to run our own shop and that was the only thing I allowed HW to do.
