Tucson improv movement and racism and homophobia

My first and last stand-up set at Tucson Improv Movement 

One white man got on stage and made anti-vax jokes and joked about being at a KKK meeting. Another white man got on stage and said fagg*t. Another white man got on stage and said that he took pictures of himself being black, referring to his penis.

And then most of the people weren't funny. Honestly, I can take people not being funny, but most of the people not being funny on top of the racism and homophobia was more than enough.

I really can't suggest going here if you're a decent person. I'm sure that the stand-up portion of this project isn't a reflection of the entire project. Take the improv classes and whatnot. Don't fuck with any of those comedians.

This isn't about a safe space, this is about basic human decency. When you got people saying slurs on stage and dehumanizing black cismen to their genitalia which has a long line of historical problems, you don't have any standards.

Takoda Institute and adult education program REVIEW

The video: https://youtu.be/Uxcfu9c28YM this is a review of The takoda Institute adult education on Franklin avenue in Minneapolis Minnesota! Availability - they have reasonable daytime hours, 8 - 3 and 4. Accessibility - as someone who admittedly isn't disabled, I would say that the building is easy to navigate with wide hallways and a lot of movable furniture. The doorways do seem kind of narrow to me, so I don't know how someone with wheelchair would get into some of the rooms. But if someone who isn't wheelchair-bound I don't know what the necessary with is. But they feel narrow to me is an able-bodied person. Location - the main office in a lot of the adult education programs in a right on cedar and Franklin. These are bus routes blue Line, 22, 2, 67, and a 9 mainly. I would say that's a great location with high Public transportation traffic. cedar avenue and Franklin avenue are not so great during rush hour for personal vehicles. they do have their own parking...

Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp

 A lot of you probably didn't notice, but Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp went down yesterday because the dsn a and AAA records were attacked. I don't have a full understanding of what that means, but given that the domains became available for purchase, I can make context clues based on the information I already have with my short time as a self-proclaimed internet historian. I'm also the type of person that is more interested in why this happened because what happened is a lot simpler to explain. What's not going to be so simple to explain but the media is going to try to explain anyway are the Pandora papers. The long records of a former employee recording all of Facebook's wrongdoings. I was one of the many watching the highlights of Facebook's hearing, but I wasn't watching them in full like many others. If you weren't involved at all, but you're getting involved now, you're about to learn a lot from the summaries of the Pandora...

Review: BAUHN foldable Bluetooth keyboard pink/silver

A quick review of another attack item from Aldi  What's really cool about these foldable keyboards is that they have four color options!  It magnet shuts close but it doesn't have magnets on the other side to make it stay open so you have to use it on a flat surface.  It has a hard time connecting/staying connected with cell phones, but it works fine with my Linux mint laptop. I initially bought it to see if it would connect with my KiaOS flip phone and unfortunately it didn't, but I'm going to keep it because it connects to my laptop. For it to connect to my Samsung Android, I have to unpair it and repair it and do the connection settings every time. I can't suggest buying this, But if you want something cheap for your laptop that comes in different colors, go for it.
