Since i know there are language enthusiasts in my timeline: the recent Japanology Plus episode features a researcher who studies the nearly extinct language of the Ainu, who are indigenous to Hokkaido but maintain a distinct language and culture https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/2032224/

there's an adorable little owl that hangs around our neighborhood and he was right on my walkway last night as I was coming home

I think everyone should take time out to question their gender and actively make that choice. Yes, even cis people. IMO, actively choosing the be cis should be encouraged, rather than just seen as the default.

Heute wieder einige Kommentare in den Medien und Berichte aus Talkshows zum Thema Datenschutz in der Pandemie, die - gelinde gesagt - unterkomplex waren. Ich versuche es einfach einmal mit einer kleinen Reihe von sieben Merksätzen zum Thema, einer pro Stunde:

Böse Zungen behaupten, Datenschutz sei die heilige Kuh der Grundrechte.

Richtig ist: Viele Ochsen verstehen nicht, dass schon jetzt sehr viel mehr personenbezogene Daten als vor der Pandemie erhoben werden.

the #ASL word for "trans" is the same morpheme as "beautiful" but signed over your heart, where you'd sign self 😭

If you ever want to keep following someone for their toots but they boost a lot of other stuff, you don't have to unfollow them, you can turn boosts off on their profile!

Here's @binchicken as an example. You go to the three dots and take the hide boosts option. They'll no longer turn up on your timeline.

@distel the saddest part is when I „don’t follow any rules“ it is mostly to avoid accidents. yeah, I‘m not using that „bike lane“ in the dooring zone so that cars can overtake me with a 40cm gap. what a rebel I am!

if german cyclists talk about their wish to be able to ride without fear, like on dutch infrastructure, there is always this one car driver.

this one person who will appear and whine how they live in fear of running over a cyclist because those awful cyclists don't follow any rules and don't pay any attention to traffic and blablabla

it's super annoying.

i am once again thinking about the buff wizard

Someone I know wants to try out Mastodon, but he doesn't know English. Is there:

A) A way to look for users speaking a particular language?

B) A Polish instance that's well moderated (no bigotry allowed on there)?

Please boost, even if you don't know 😓

Diese vom Bundesverkehrsministerium geförderte Umfrage zur Meinung von Radfahrenden zu Begegnungen mit autonom gesteuerten Kraftfahrzeugen klingt ziemlich nach "Radfahrende sollen die Verantwortung aufgebrummt kriegen von autonomen Fahrzeugen erkannt und nicht umgefahren zu werden". Wenn ihr ne halbe Stunde Zeit zu viel habt füllt die gerne mal aus und sagt denen dass das nicht cool ist. 1/2

frage mich gerade, wie viel besser wir durch diese krise kommen würden, wenn es ein ausreichendes grundeinkommen für alle geben würde.

oder durch die nächste.

Lesbians! Has anyone ever implied that you shouldn't call yourself a lesbian because it's outdated or problematic?
