This building looks like how I imagine Fort Knox will after it’s privatized. Col Sanders presents the “Kentucky Fried Chicken Buillon” depository

Oh great so then we can look forward to listicles “20 tech journalists disrupting the panhandling space”

What else did you think they meant by “Knobby” tires

Sure the Geospatial Commons is great functionally, but I’m still disappointed they renamed it from the “Data Deli”

The first Tricumvirate

Pretty fucked up given the regional context, no?

Not sure what the others are talking about. This looks like a normal bike to me as well? Maybe it’s different in their respective regions?

This should be an emote lol

What interested you in this book club? Are you neurodiverse? Do you know someone who is? I finally pursued an adhd diagnosis after 30+ years of coping and depression after being raised by parents too anxious about the stigma of neurodivergence to pursue a diagnosis (just put me in advanced classes instead). My partner and I are both shades of partly diagnosed spicy, adhd and major depression are mine and she has a “highly sensitive introvert personality” with anxiety. We’ve been tugging at threads in our tangled brains to try and figure out what’s up. We’re both fairly successful in our fields through masking, coping, and misery, and want to be advocates such that no one else needs to feel anything besides pride and an embrace of their neurodiversity. Hoping the perspectives of this book will be transformative in the way that Trans Liberation was the first time I read it. A better future is coming for all of us.

What stood out to you about the introduction? Any choice quotes? Anything you relate to? Will download tonight and dive in and check back in to the thread.

Ps this com has already done wonders for my understanding of neurodiversity, embrace of my own and that of others, and you’re all wonderful people who deserve nothing but the best from life
