#LGTQIA #GRAReform #Gender

Folks we need as many of us in the UK as possible to fill this in. There is a campaign of folks wishing to deny the rights of #trans and #nonbinary people.

ENOUGH! Now is OUR time to act.

I urge you set aside at least 30 mins for this #action

The powers that be tried to make me write JavaScript, but I was too clever for 'em.

Tired and sad feel so similar.

I thought I was sad, was gloomily pondering what I need to change in my life to not be sad.

Then I remembered that I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. Oh. Duh.

What's wrong with just 'bar/restaurant'? #hale 🙄

It's time to make this official:

Hi, I'm @maloki, and I've joined the #Tusky team.

My main focus will be answering you questions here, (check out our pinned posts), working on a FAQ, and figure out funding avenues.

I'll also work with the rest of the team @ConnyDuck , @charlag and other contributors, to move the project forward by listening to your feedback and trying to make your #MastoApp experience even better.

The weather outside is vile. But the stove is lit, the house is warm, the kettle's on, and there are windfall apples stewing.

Life could be a lot worse.

yes it's #SunnySunday

If you see two friends of yours using the hashtag, it'd be wonderful if you'd introduce them to each other.

If you want to be introduced to new good people, post the hashtag and a little bit about yourself (some talking points for initial conversation with your new buddy?)

The more people doing this, the better for everyone. Even if you're not participating it'd be amazing if you'd pass on an explanation. Thank you!

I feel programming should be a side-skill. i.e. an engineer/artist/medic/historian/etc would learn programming to ease repetitive tasks.

This way they would have sufficient experience in an area to contribute effectively. Software is crystallisation of the thought patterns of its programmer, and the results of an error in that are magnified many times.

So a historian programmer would do things for historians.
