I’m David. I live in Tacoma, Washington. I do square foot gardening, home automation with Home Assistant, and have too many cats.
You think you saw me behind some ferns? You just might have!

That’s a pretty good question. I 💯 agree that it can fall into authoritarian colonial bullshit, and in fact that’s probably what I was thinking of in terms of ‘defining’ vs ‘advancing’. I’ll invoke the case of the ‘Sad Puppies’, a bunch of lame ass white men who were super mad that the Hugos were overwhelmingly going to ‘not white men’ (read: interesting BIPOC voices everyone loves and gasp…women?!).
I would probably claim the Sad Puppies tried to define culture.
The rest of the attendees advanced it by telling them to fuck right off.
I’m on Team Crosspost, although duplicates marginally annoy me too. Because of the low content volume and the potentially fractured nature of Lemmy means more people will see it in the event of blocked instances. Although, I hope crosspost combining becomes a thing like [email protected] mentioned.
It is…I would like a Fediverse video platform, but this one ain’t very cash money.
