Does this exist...

a way to compare my GoodReads READ list to a list of books i have in my Calibre library?

one of the hardest lessons is that these two things are simultaneously true:

1. being hurt is a real feeling and you are allowed to be hurt; your pain can be real

2. hurting and being in pain does not give you the right to hurt other people

everyone at one point or another can and will fuck this up.

the people who admit they've fucked it and will do better next time are the people to keep around you - not the rest.

i still love the shit out of the phrase, "the canon sunk my ship"

Hey all! I’m in the process of writing a paper about LGBTQ+ people and their experiences in the Catholic Church. In order to get some more primary sources, I came up with a quick survey. If you identify as LGBTQIA+ and are a part of the Catholic Church, please consider helping me out!

All answers are anonymous and will only be seen by me.

Also any boosts are greatly appreciated! ❤️❤️❤️

Wokabulary that I wish people would stop using: folx (or “folxs” as I saw one time and have not known peace since that day)

“Folks” is already gender-neutral!!! “Folx” is a tiresome shibboleth that fills no niche that does not already have a perfectly good word to fill it!!!

PSA! Finding work for my friend who's a nutritionist/personal trainer. Please read because there's a lot to this :D Also please share! <3

My friend Jen has fibro, IC, depression, and anxiety. Two years ago she was hugely overweight and unfit, and walking ~100m was enough exertion that she'd feel sick afterwards. Today, she's lost 80kg in weight and is a qualified personal trainer and nutritionist. She does Krav, boxing, runs a community social walking group, teaches teens self-defense. (1/?)

I never feel the difference between hyper verbal and non-hyperverbal #autistic so much as when I try to talk with my father.

We can't do #ActuallyAutistic style 'be together without talking' socializing because he's an ocean away. All we have is words.

And he just doesn't word. Does anyone know how to have a long distance relationship without words? In person, I don't need words, but LDR takes away all the non-word things... and I miss my father.

Anyone doing CI/CD with C or C++ codebase ?

Any tips

dose anyone know any doctor or pharmacist types or know about hrt that I can ask questions?

...dear gods, I'd forgotten how much I <3 James Nesbitt in JEKYLL.

in the meantime if anyone knows about accessibility software that would help someone with tremors type better please suggest! (boosts +)

NYC folks: if you'd like a free ticket to my day long workshop this Friday about, essentially, how to run a great Mastodon instance for your community, I have discount codes!

It's based on my https://runyourown.social guide but it uses the guide as a jumping off point and I get into some of the nitty gritty, including things like "how to stay on top of Mastodon releases and keep your community informed of new features if you don't know anything about programming"

When will Wizards of the Coast bring home the DRACONOMICON from the edition war?

I use Inspirobot and Artbreeder as digital fidget toys. They require attention, but not a lot, and are at the right level of stimulation for me to be a background distraction without taking over. Any other sites like these?
