This is a tankie nightmare. I’m a border control agent? And if I fuck up my wages are reduced? Seems like you answered the opposite of my question

Yes yes amen to all of this
Thank you for this, I’ve been thinking a lot about this recently. “Pushing” is almost always a violation of consent, unless it’s a fun consensual thing like pushing a child on a swing. Applying force to an autonomous creature to make it do something (be that a person or a donkey or whatever) is not something that should be normalized, yet here we are. I think there are times when pushing may be justified under the circumstances (e.g., pushing someone out of the way of a moving vehicle), but there should be a check-in and repair process afterward when that happens.
This is not a consensual world we live in, and we violate our own consent all the time, but I think we can be more accountable to ourselves when we do that. When I push myself to go to work in the morning, I try to check in and remind myself that the entire system of wage slavery is not okay; that we do this to survive, not because it’s good or normal. When it comes to things I have more control over, like diet, exercise, socializing, etc., I try to always invite myself to do things, provide the encouragement and support needed to do them, and be understanding about the very real reasons why the invitation sometimes gets declined. Being patient and thoughtful with myself about things is working soooo much better than pushing myself ever did.
Remember when you joined the fediverse in July 2024 and immediately fought with strangers about AI? That was a wild time
Just read “The Story of Mel” for the first time (Issue #4, page 22); feel like I’ve been inducted into a programmer secret society
Thank you! This makes sense to me
It would be great to have a place to share resources we’ve found. Like ways to get help, find food, survive the heat, etc. Those topics come up in all the different communities, but it would be good to have a main place to go and look
This is the right answer. Next can we get rid of money altogether?

This is awesome, I was looking for something like this
Remember when Biden told rich donors “nothing would fundamentally change” if he was elected? Man lived up to his word, smh
As someone who is only a few months into learning to program, I find this perspective very grounding. If I set my expectations appropriately, then I can enjoy the process and not get frustrated with myself that it’s taking “too long.”
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this!
Thank you so much for the detailed reply! I’m learning a lot from this thread

Hadn’t heard of it till now but I’ll look into it! Thank you!
