the big secret on how to become an expert in your field:

fuck up
figure out why and how you fucked up
learn how to recover from fucking up in that specific way
repeat until you are an expert in your field

a lot of schooling tries to skip steps 1 and 2 but they are very important

The team that made Beak, Feather, & Bone is making 6 little, weird, beautiful TTRPGs you get once a month digitally, and then altogether as a boxed set: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1013756372/possible-worlds/

I am putting a call out to the fediverse for people who rely on screen readers to use computers to critique Mixxx's accessibility. Input from people who are musicians would be especially appreciated. I want to consider your perspectives as we are planning how to rewrite Mixxx's GUI with QML. Please boost.

If you're interested in helping, reply to this toot and introduce yourself on our Zulip chat:

Please boost this post if you would like the EFF to join the fediverse.

In a survey the EFF sent me, I suggested they create an account on the fediverse, so they can reach more supporters and support innovative free software that promotes interoperability among platforms, something they've advocated for in the past, too.

If you can boost this post, maybe I'll be able to show them that there are quite a few users who would like them here!

The EFF is the infamous nonprofit organisation that fights for privacy, government transparency, and digital freedom. Their fight is very important, and the EFF is very special to me. https://www.eff.org/about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation

You can see some of their work here https://www.eff.org/work

In the meantime, you can follow @eff, which is an unofficial mirror of their Twitter.

Things autism research could be about:

- How does autism radar work?
- Do we have an easier time communucating with other autistics because our ways of communication are similar, or because we've all had to learn to accomodate the people we're talking to?
- What can be done to prevent and treat autistic burnout?
- What even *is* autistic burnout exactly?
- What effects does masking have on your mental health?
- What autistic traits are actually traits of autism, and which ones are trauma responses?
- How is a non-traumatized autistic brain work?
- How can we better accomodate autistic people?

What autism research is about:
- How do we make the autistic people stop existing?

What are platforms/avenues for a radical/leftist theatre artist? I'm a playwright and actor interested in writing about rad things and helping develop rad theatre (I fucks with staged readings).

hey fedi, is there a bandcamp for writing? like a place to find indie short stories online? I'm specifically looking for sci-fi stuff.
