"this leaves many white people open to a gross misunderstanding. Most of our encounters with black people are on “white turf” where black people present not as they are, but as they know we wish them to be – quiet, polite, humble, generous and always smiling. Paradoxically, most of our encounters with black people from a distance – through media or external observation – are of black people who are loud, assertive, self-possessed, proud and sometimes angry.

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Do not talk about sudo.
#2) Do NOT talk about sudo.
#3) If it's your first time using sudo, you have to fuck up something you don't have backups for.

@garrett @federicomena I have applied to a few RH positions, but I haven’t heard anything back yet - most were applied to a few months ago, though. Not really looking for anything on a specific team, but I’d love if I could work on the Desktop team.
SUSE positions were all in a different country, and I’m not at a stage where I can relocate in that way.

like, i'm glad that story blew up re: ICE detaining an american-born teenager for weeks.
but it also set me on edge because the focus needs to be that this organization is buck wild outta control and awful -- not that it's crossed a line for harassing a US citizen.

be cautious of @ funnypanja @mastodon.social
*gaslighter
*accusing people who call her out of being gaslighters to shut down their argument
*policing latinx fears about ICE
*policing black fears about cops
*sealioning
*bad faith arguments with the express purpose of silencing poc and queer voices who hurt her white feelings
*another gross white person that believes their feelings are above the safety and sanity of WOC, what a surprise -

Just about everyone I know within GNOME pointed me towards that job, saying that I’d be good for it.

I’m still pissed about the Canonical job incident. They thought I was a good enough candidate to interview when they saw my application, but rejected me only because I didn’t have a degree. All my skills and knowledge are nothing compared to a piece of paper.
