possibly relevant note: the QingPing has never been calibrated manually and I may or may not have done that with the Aranet at some point a long time ago

I have two different air quality monitors now (QingPing for home, Aranet for the road) and the CO2 readings tend to diverge, sometimes a lot. Why… is this, as in technical details?

@astrokatie.com @kateviolette.com this seems like the kind of thing you might know

I knew how to ride the subways by myself and figure out how to navigate big foreign cities as a kid, the skill points just went elsewhere

If the cops grab you at a protest remember: 1) Ask "am I free to go?" if they say yes, GO. 2) if they say no, say "I am invoking my right to an attorney and my 5th amendment right to remain silent" then SHUT UP. wait for your lawyer.

But if they stopped blaming people who are actually fighting fascism, that would mean they’d have to take a look at their own complicity and maybe put in some work or something! That’s much harder than yelling at people while sitting in a chair feeling smug about themselves :(

a probably unpopular opinion is that the escalating culture of leveraging bullying and victim-blaming to coerce people into voting for democrats has actually been an acceleration mechanism for fascist creep, and bears significant blame for where we are today.
