#DWebCamp

Today, I am grateful for the BER airport lounge toilet.

Because it is not a shaky stilted outhouse composting toilet that requires strategic lifting of testicles when sitting down.

I ordered food after tonight’s concert. I went to meet the delivery guy outside the hotel lobby.

As I stepped onto the sidewalk, a bicyclist slammed into me. We both went flying. I got the wind knocked out of me and several bruises. The cyclist helped me up and then rode off. I was dazed, took the food from the driver who seemed just as shocked as a witness, and limped back to my room.

Took me several minutes to realize what had happened. The meter in front of the hotel isn’t a bike lane. WTF

Is this because of @evanprodromou presenting earlier at @fediforum?

Excited to participate in the 7th @fediforum, which started at the top of the hour!

Every 6 months, the people building, operating, using, and cheering on a better open social web get together online to demo, discuss, and dream.

A trans refugee in Sverige facing deportation to Türkiye. I signed a petition to oppose the deportation.

Any immigrant to Sverige contributing to society should be welcomed to stay, especially those unable to live authentically elsewhere.

In Svenska, Jonathan = Johan. It's pronounced like “yo-one”. It’s one of the most common names in Sverige, so I joke, “If you can’t be the Johan you love, love the Johan you’re with.”

I tried that joke 3 times with Johans in Stockholm before accepting that Svenskar don’t have a cultural appreciation of Crosby, Stills & Nash.

Today begins the 2-weeks of spring calendar chaos created by George W. Bush and perpetuated by every US president unwilling to end daylight saving time.

@iamkonstantin ❤️🔥 I hope to see more of this and hopefully a growing list of complying vendors on https://www.eucloud.tech/

I rarely am looking for a vegan restaurant. I am looking to evaluate plant-based options at the restaurants my carnivore husband and friends want me to join them at.

Unfortunately, Happy Cow—the leading vegan/vegetarian restaurant review app—maintains an extremist requirement that restaurants have at least 1 vegan option, regardless if it has many tasty vegetarian options. 🙄
