So I've been muttering a lot about some stuff Patreon is doing, recently, here's the whole thing, with copious link citation: https://www.patreon.com/posts/88720290

Ah yes, this is a *great* way to turn “Can I see your driver’s license?” into “Can you hand me your unlocked phone so I can rifle through it?” at a traffic stop.

Yes, it’s more convenient than having a separate card, and it may serve as a great backup in case your physical card is lost or damaged. But please don’t use this as your *only* driver’s license, especially if you are an often-targeted demographic.

I feel so soap-boxy lately, maybe because I’m teaching a class, but here’s another kernel of truth I’ll throw at y’all about communities:

If you are trying to get new people, expect diverse people and young people into your hobby, and your first reaction is to show off your really expensive kit and say how much it cost, you are gatekeeping mega mode, even if you’re just trying to share your interest. Nobody wants to hear there is a $1500 (or $5000) barrier to entry to their new hobby. It’s demoralizing, not educational, and they’re just gonna leave.

Happens in bicycles, drones, photography, astronomy, gaming, marksmanship… you name it, there’s a rich older white dude ready to show off his six grand investment in a hobby to a college student with a three digit bank account.

Lol love that my own joke from years ago is making the rounds as a slightly different joke

Elon let thousands of actual Nazis back onto Xitter under his selective, BS "free speech" rationale. And now, he is taking a poll to see if the Anti-freakin'-Defamation League should be kicked off of Twitter?!?! Worse still, those thousands of Nazis will determine if the ADL stays or goes b/c they were the constituency most willing to pay for blue-check marks?!?

So if you're in San Marcos, TX and you want some fabulous brisket or sausage and need some quality herd-of-cats time, I highly recommend Black's BBQ.
