I am seeing lots of art pieces on the instance not having image description.

If this is not a pure impossibility to you, please do describe your images, there is a function in mastodon especially for that.

It can be extremely helpful for blind people, neuroatypical people, and so on.

It's ok to sometimes forget but please do.
The fonction has been implemented for a reason.

Boost this up!

Drugs & Wires is back! But at what cost. Look at all this stuff I had to draw. LOOK AT IT AND WEEP

so yes, if you are short on a thing, checking around with local small business owners to see if they have extra thing they'd be willing to trade you, for cash or other goods or services, is A Good Plan

A Great Plan if you already have a relationship with said small business owner, who is one of your neighbors

A Fantastic Plan if you continue to deal with small locally-owned-and-operated businesses even in times of smooth sailing

Let the corps and their warehouses filled with crap hang; strengthen your relations within your community. You are more resilient together than any assistance the corporate machines can deign to offer.

*looks at watch* oh boy! it's Out Of Touch Thursday today again?!

Today we have a new version of our mastodon mascot designed by @betalars for world autism awareness day :)

Tomorrow is my birthday. I have been having serious health problems and I have been thinking of quitting my job. With COVID-19 going on, the idea of quitting my job has become even scarier because I am scared of getting a new job. But the idea of remaining at my job is terrifying as well. If anyone out there is doing well financially and would offer me any kind of support, I could consider taking a health break to hopefully recover and then look for a new job after everything has blown over. That would mean a lot to me. https://www.paypal.me/TheT113

Never mind touching my face, I'm used to touching /everything/ when I'm outside: to find out where it is, to read the label on something in a store...I've tried going up and down stairs without using the railing and that's a bad idea!

And food shopping. I did so little of this before but now it all has to be me! Can I not find a thing because it's missing or because I'm blind? I'm playing this game a lot now

And the screen thing. Ugh.

Approaching Utopia is a Buddhist “libertarian syndicalist” (anarchist) run media firm, focused on Creative Commons media.

Right now we have published music by @megabyteGhost and a podcast called Your Secure Life (YourSecure.life).

And many other projects in the works.

So apparently a common thread among covid-19 mutual aid groups seems to be politicians and landlords joining the groups and attempting to de-politicize mutual aid.

They try to contain mutual aid into a microcosm, completely disconnected from other systems of oppression and necessity. Saying shit like "Rent strikes aren't mutual aid".

How can we inoculate against this? We need to prepare for the cooptation of our efforts and figure out how to respond to that

@solder_on @djsundog I was impressed by the strip club in Portland that worked to keep everyone employed during the quarantine (strippers as delivery drivers, bouncers as bodyguards for the strippers, bartenders taking phone orders, cooks cooking), and rebranded themselves as "Boober Eats".

An orgasm implies the existence of an andgasm, a norgasm, and an xorgasm.
