"These aren't accidents, these are results." -- Tom Flood
Or as Jessie Singer points out, "accidents" seem random only because we solely look at the last person to make a mistake, not the design that made it easy for that mistake to become a fatality.

@vantablack You go, gurl!
@booyaa Works fine for me, at least on my app.
@vantablack Once, when I was a kid, I was having a nightmare so I shut my eyes tight ends the nightmare thing was there, and I was wondering why could I still see with my eyes closed, then I opened my eyes and suddenly woke up. ๐ฎ

Crowdfunding, hospitalization, unemployment rejection
So I talked before about how I was hospitalized on Sunday due to chest pain. While I don't have heart disease and have been given a prescription, I need to try to take it easy for this week and beyond. Also I have received news that I have been rejected from unemployment and am trying to appeal it. So I could use some help.
Please share, and pitch in to my Paypal, Venmo or Cashapp if you can.

@ljwrites I'm trans, so I'm often involved in (er... dragged into) online discussions with my country's transphobes. ๐
@ljwrites Ok I'm stealing this and posting on twitter
@tek Somewhat off-topic:
You just reminded me of an old text file that circulated on BBSs with a DIY noice reducer gadget for your phone line. (I remember because it kept complaining about Ma' Bell services, lol)
It had a potentiometer for callibration. I never managed to make it work, but whenever I cranked the dial too much on one direction, weird characters began to appear on the screen until the connection dropped ๐
I always thought it was a really cool thing for plausible deniability on my end. "Sorry, I'm getting a lot of static here, looks like it's raining." Click.
