My favourite hill is Mount Robson so I guess that one

Oh boy I originally read this as that we needed to pick one of your listed hills and get behind it, and I liked the concept

Don't say "acronym" when you mean "abbreviation"!

"Acronym" specifically refers to an initialism that forms a new word. For example,

• scuba (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus)
• NASA (pronounced like a word - you don't say "ehn eh ess eh").

It's acro- (height) -nym (word) - a word that exists on top of / above other words.

In contrast "NIH" is not an acronym because it isn't pronounced or read as a word. It's appropriate to say, "'NIH' is an abbreviation" or "'NIH' is an initialism". But saying "'NIH' is an acronym" is wrong!

People should be educated on FOSS software & Fediverse and try to use it whenever possible.

• spelling "catsup" as "ketchup" is as juvenile as spelling "night light" as "nite lite"

• Ohio isn't part of the Midwest

• all of Rory's boyfriends in The Gilmore Girls were terrible, but Logan is the worst

• using a slur "because it's not a bad word in my culture" still isn't okay

I could easily die on Mt Washington, NH.

The race of a voice actor doesn’t matter

This is a one-way ticket to everyone being the dominant race behind the scenes because studios won't hire other races.

Using "themselves" for a non-binary person or unspecified gender is grammatically incorrect.

It's "themself." (Unless they're plural.)

Also, "Latinx" is performative white ally cringe. It's not pronounceable in Spanish. Use "Latine." -e is the obvious gender neutral ending.

The hill upto the finishline on my local park run this morning was way harder than usual, so (almost) that one today!

Both employer related:

• no biometrics
• birthday not for sale

It is possible to crossdress/be gender non-conforming without being trans

I’ve never heard anyone suggest otherwise. Who are you having this argument with?

Daylight savings time needs to be gotten rid of.

The imperial measurement standard needs to be gotten rid of.

The UN security council veto should be able to be overridden by the general assembly.

Collective responsibility for a democracy's crimes should be a thing.

The country of Israel should be moved to an open area of land with no people on it. Siberia, Alaska, Greenland, or the jungles of South America.

There should be a corporate death penalty when they commit crimes.

All kids should have food.

All humans should have access to very basic water and food. Like beans and rice for everyone, no exceptions.

Basic sanitation is a human right.

Religion should not be respected any more than any other bag of philosophical ideas. Stupid parts of religions should be called out and discussed, not hallowed and treated with respect even if its utter nonsense.
