They wanna profit off the water before the water wars begin. Usually the war comes first.

Potential upside: I know several housing collectives who sued for collective ownership of their trailer parks over disputes with rusty water. Of course, they literally lost thousands of dollars in damages clothing and in lost income from illness before that was possible.

You can follow individual communities as if they were people on Mastodon. Underneath the hood, communities are essentially bots that boost people’s posts to aggregate them into a single feed.

I could see something a little more abstract too. Like the whole “building is a different color behind smoke” thing is neat and may work better with really simple colors and minimal shading. But this is really the worst of both worlds.

I like the term “twice exceptional”. All of my biggest strengths are aspects of myself that come with tradeoffs. For 20 years straight, I was praised for the strengths and scolded for the tradeoffs. Motherfucker, you can’t enjoy how quickly I learn things I’m interested in and also treat me like I’m lazy when you expect me to sustain equal amounts of interest in 10 different things that bore me and I fail. You can’t enjoy all the art and tech I make and then get annoyed when it’s difficult to break me out of a hyperfixation.

I firmly believe that the tortured artist stereotype is bullshit. There’s nothing about being an artist that requires you to be miserable. But we sure do treat people like shit when their brains work differently.

If it didn’t fuck up the car, that’s pretty neat
