Sure… I don’t wanna stop people going though. I just want people to consider what didn’t even enter my mind as someone who is new to all this. Read up, and be willing to protect yourself if you go. But I DO support people protesting if this is legit.

Excited to see people ready to take action, but just be careful. See the thread on this profile for more info: bsky.app/profile/ecmclaughlin.bsky.social (this user has set her account to logged in users only).
“Listen, for folks who don’t know, I was a part of a small organizing team that led to a mass mobilization in 813 cities worldwide in 2019.
I am not talking out of my ass.
You should be VERY VERY VERY careful in this environment about sharing flyers for events that identify NO organizer”
There was also a mod thread on r/albuquerque about it.
I am sure there will be BOTH legit protests and shitty people using this for nefarious reasons. I’m still on the fence about whether to drive 2 hours to my local one or not. I’ve already signed up for other things through mobilize.us anyway.

Yes. Fuck giving them traffic, and you have to log in to view parts of it anyway - screenshots are better if truly needed.
- Comment on Help me out: which looks better for the Duck - the neck tie or the bow tie? 5 weeks ago:
Neck tie. You could also make it all lopsided and loose when the duck is all discombobulated, it’d be mad cute.
- Comment on Fear of job loss hits its highest point in years—but workers won’t accept less than $81,000 1 month ago:
I just quit a $90k a year job due to stress, burnout, and the fact that the company was a total con and I could no longer shill their crappy AI product. I’ll be back on the job hunt in the new year and I’m not particularly looking forward to it. I’m actually contemplating taking something lower paid so the process is quicker and I have less to lose when it’s shit and I burn out again.

Glad someone mentioned it, that was my immediate thought.
- Comment on What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games? 2 months ago:
Absolutely this. I am jealous each time I recommend it to someone who hasn’t played it yet.
- Comment on They're called leaves for a reason. 2 months ago:
As a Brit we were always taught to gently disturb leaf piles before jumping in them or throwing them into the fire, just in case hedgehogs were in there. The habit has stuck, although I now just rake our leaves up onto the mulched beds and leave them. The chickens will then pull them apart and consume any living thing unfortunate enough to live there.
- Comment on Is a Quest 3 really worth it? 2 months ago:
Very accurate. We have the Quest 1 and 2, both just collecting dust now, I’m not even sure if they would work anymore. We set up a VR gaming night with a few friends who also had headsets, played Beat Saber and Synth Riders a bunch, then got bored and decided to explore a new game where you walk about and chop wood and whatnot. Five minutes of that and I was so dizzy I almost threw up. It made me realize that the type of game you can play on these is very very limited. I did get a lot of mileage from Synth Riders, so I’m not saying it’s all worthless tech, but we probably could have got a better ROI just buying a regular console with the money.

And what about the ones, like me, in red states? How fucked are we? (I know the answer and hence drunk and high rn)

Always max out at 4/5 effort, so there’s always room to grow.

But then how much time have you saved not having to receipt the receipts.

For a little while ours was used for this. Covid too. Client was under an alias and wasn’t with us long so no idea.

Goopiness is a great word.

Please don’t tell on me, I don’t want to go back to the bad place.
- Comment on Dragonflies 6 months ago:
Female human here. I’ve honestly always just read it literally, a person having sex second in a multiple partner scenario, and it being sloppy down there for all involved. There’s just as much guy in the statement as there is girl, doesn’t seem all that problematic to me.
- Comment on And they don't fold well either 7 months ago:
Years ago my husband bought a random pillow from Amazon. I liked it so much I also bought one, but I guess it was a different manufacturer and I hated it. He’s not fussy so we swapped, and I swear to god this is the best pillow I’ve ever used. It was like $23 and the link is broken now.
- Comment on From 'quiet quitting' to 'coffee badging' — why employees are less interested in work 7 months ago:
Do bees coffee badge or quiet quit?
- Comment on Why are there "driveway connections by permit only" signs on roads? 7 months ago:
That’s a wild take, thanks for writing it up. I’m in Tennessee, and it feels like our state isn’t as shrewd as that, but I could be wrong.
- Comment on Why are there "driveway connections by permit only" signs on roads? 7 months ago:
Innnnteresting. That’s an angle I hadn’t thought about before.
- Comment on Why are there "driveway connections by permit only" signs on roads? 7 months ago:
Yep, it’s the road sign part that gets me confused. I live in Tennessee. I suppose that makes some sense but I still don’t know if I understand why it needs a sign vs just having an ordinance and fining people who don’t follow it. In my brain, road signs are for things you might need to know in the spur of the moment. It’s not like people are going “Whoops I just built an unapproved driveway!”

Sounds to me like it’s a well stocked food supply then.
- Comment on YOOOOOOOOOOOO 1 year ago:
Yeah most pizzas run 300-400 cals a slice. If I really try to go easy on the cheese I can make a tortilla pizza for 500 cals.
I also make a wicked delicious lasagna without pasta sheets (sub for zucchini and kale layers). We designed it to fit our keto macros and I’ve kept it on rotation even though we’re only moderate low carb now.
- Comment on YOOOOOOOOOOOO 1 year ago:
Yes! We use mission low carb wraps (they seem to crisp up better) and spread tomato puree on top, then season it with garlic salt and Italian herbs, add clumps of grated cheese, and then toppings.
The trick is to preheat the oven to 400 with a cast iron in, and then spray with oil when you take it out ready to cook on (use gloves, it’ll be hot). Carefully transfer the pizza to the hot pan, return to oven, and cook for 10 mins. Depending on the toppings, and if you like it a little more top crispy, switch the oven to broil at the 8 min mark for the last two mins.
My new obsession is a little smidge of grated brussel sprouts (don’t knock it til you try it) with an oil spritz.
