@Banur @Cat_LeFey Lots of people think that "it's natural, so there are no side effects."

They think that conventional medicine has side effects because it only contains the active ingredients. The whole herb has other ingredients that prevent side effects from occurring.

Seems about as plausible as the Doctrine of Signatures, but 🤷🏼♀️...

@steter @ai6yr The driver was arrested the same day according to Wham Bam.

Can I run these metal grills through the dishwasher? #moving

@juergen_hubert Isn't that where the stork gets the babies from? Storks like ponds and marshes.

@skinnylatte @Littlebobbytables That's a big difference between European and Asian food culture.

There's a reason why the most-widely spread Christian prayer includes the line "Give us this day our daily bread.."

I love having a cold sandwich lunch. Prawns with rocket on wholegrain bread. 😋

My South Asian friends are not nearly as keen. They want it at the very least to be heated. So many panini lunches. 😂

@ai6yr Does that include his own companies? 🤔

@ai6yr I wonder how that will go down with the White House. My impression is that Trump approves of grift, but only if you don't get caught.

@ai6yr A friend of mine lives in the Florida Panhandle. She reported 6" earlier today! Surreal!

@pluralistic I hope you're wearing a good quality face mask. Urban fire smoke is no joke.

@wordshaper @mekkaokereke It seems crazy, but it really isn't. We see this over and over as genocidal movements rise to power. It's not because the intended victims are measurably different from other populations.

In fact you can see the same discussions sped up to hours rather than years when a devastating weather system is forecast to hit a populated area. Normalcy bias and survivor bias both play a role.

@cstross I wonder what their selection criteria are when even the long list is all male. 🤔

@evan Yes, and political contributions should be limited to physical humans. Corporations and organizations don't get a vote.

Nitpick: Currently permanent residents are allowed to make political contributions as well as citizens.

@evan It just so happens that my modest monthly contribution to my instance went through today.

@evan When collaborating with people, you have to meet them where they are. So if you have coworkers who are neurodiverse, that's something you need to take into account. But that's not unique to designers.

@evan As a product designer, I vote strong yes. Considering neurodiversity means e.g. providing ways of turning off animations and providing context cues. Ideally you also test at least key flows with neurodiverse end users in their habituated environment.

@phaedral @ai6yr It's like enterprise software. 😂

Cat food has food color in it even though cats don't see colors.

@W6KME @phaedral @ai6yr Are you explaining my own point to me? 🤔

@evan How do you define a chat app? I'd count Signal, Facebook Messenger and Discord for sure. But I'm not so sure about Basecamp, LinkedIn and Mastodon.

#ICYMI Another @teamspellbinders card brought to you by the need to update my #affiliate links.

The person I gave this card to didn't like it. 😂 But I do. Creating it was quite the journey and in the end I loved the results. It uses the Large Die of the Month for November '23. This was the first time I used @sarahrenaeclark Color Catalog, but certainly not the last. It's a great tool!
