Hallo ihr,
Ich brauch eure kreativen Köpfe
Meine Tochter und ich wollen einen #Podcast starten, wo wir gemeinsam #Filme besprechen; aus #Kinder/Teenie Perspektive und eben auch aus #Eltern Perspektive.
Die #Idee kam auf, weil wir es lieben Filme zu schauen und wir hinterher sowieso immer drüber sprechen, was uns gefallen hat und was blöd/nicht verständlich/unangenehm/rassistisch etc war ...
Was uns noch fehlt ist ein guter #Name
Also teilt gerne eure Vorschläge!

“His last name is Null, the same word used by computer scientists to mean "no value" or "invalid value." The Nulls of the world, it turns out, endure a lifetime of website bouncebacks, processing errors and declarations by customer-service representatives that their accounts don’t exist.”
Oddly Google maps is missing the body of water along the southern coast of the US: the Gulf of Mexico.
I had to use an address on Gulf of Mexico drive and correct the location too, and it is not technically an outdoor swimming pool.
Please help them correct their maps.
Are you a #woman? Do you marry someone and change your #name? Republicans would like you to know that they don’t think you should be able to vote. If the #SAVE act passes, your driver’s license or REAL ID, isn’t good enough if your name doesn’t match your birth certificate. There are no provisions to allow for legal name changes for any reason, probably to punish trans people. But it means that up to 30% of American women will lose the right to vote with no recourse but legally changing their name back to their birth certificate name. ( Having once changed my name after a divorce, I can tell you that it is an absolute nightmare of bureaucracy. I’m not looking forward to the expense and hassle again.)
The gop hate women, they have always hated women, and why women continue to associate with them has baffled me for many decades.

Want american Democrats to ACTUALLY DO something already?
Consider Direct Action instead!
But as well as that, we *do* need a non-corrupt (yet! there's always time, ofc) replacement party that is ACTUALLY left-wing.
Tea Party and MAGA supporters did it. Don't follow their strategies completely, but DO LEARN FROM them. We All deserve better, even the Leopards Eating People's Faces party.
How many of them would have supported having their faces eaten if they KNEW it wasn't hyperbole or something?
Or if they took time to imagine and plan for the risks: their or loved ones' faces being eaten by leopards?

Now we just need a name and bunch of furries to advise how to protect our information technologies.
Also, Sapphic from Sappho, right?
So Wildeic / Wiledic from Oscar Wilde, for androphilic. andric?
Ah whatever. mlem.
How did #LilNasX get his #name
Lil Nas X once joked that the idea behind the name was to steal three different #rap #names and combine them into one.
#Women #Transgender #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA #Entertainment #Music #Rap #HipHop #Representation #Culture
I have an #unusual #name that is a bit hard to pronounce. It’s a name that reflects my Christian #cultural #heritage and it’s important to me.
This is a tough time of year because everyone calls me “Chanukah” as a joke and laughs as if it’s hilarious.
This happens in professional settings as well and I worry about suffering #professional #consequences if I correct them or tell them that’s not my name.
