Raygun is now Australia's most famous dancer. What does she reveal about our attitudes toward dance?
"Why do Australians feel that dance is mainly for performance, rather than participation? We get up and sing tunelessly at karaoke, but shy away from dancing in public. The most recent arts participation report from Creative Australia shows that while one in six Australians engage with music, only one in ten Australians regularly dance. It seems weโre just not a nation of recreational dancers."
Perhaps toxic masculinity?
Raygun is now Australiaโs most famous dancer. What does she reveal about our own attitudes towards dance?
Raygun has forced us to focus on many aspects of dance that are often ignored in Australia, including the role of dance in communities and the politics of dance.The Conversation

Thereโs a powerful moment that happens every time you build your own PC. After your chosen components are slotted into place, every connection is double-checked, and each wire is neatly tucked away, you close the case and power on your new machine. Then you (hopefully) see that first loading screen, as a proud sense of ownership washes over you. It can be an addicting experience, but until last week Iโd never enjoyed that experience with a laptop...

#SocialCoop I just made a simple change to the instance to make Mastodon multi-column mode "make sense" in social.coop, meaning use up all space instead of having weirdly narrow columns.

Allow resizing columns ยท Issue #8632 ยท mastodon/mastodon
My main issue with Mastodon's design is that the columns are too narrow, which makes the content look cramped and the thumbnails look too small. Is it possible to let the user resize columns?GitHub
@ntnsndr FYI this has been reverted, please reapply the CSS manually if you still want this behavior:
div.column {
-webkit-box-flex:1;
-ms-flex-positive:1;
flex-grow:1
}
Oh darn, why was it reverted?
Honestly, I'll probably just go back to the single-column interface. I am fine with that.
@ntnsndr one user reported it broke their workflow, said it was too wide and it made the UI uncomfortable to read; they declined providing more details for now so I'm unsure how to work around their issue. Therefore I disabled it altogether.
Unfortunately social.coop/@flancian/11295628โฆ is also a thing apparently.
So maybe it'll also be single-column for me. Or I'll fiddle with userscripts ๐ But most people won't, so they will miss out, which is a shame.

The Republican attack on higher ed pretends to be ideological. But follow the money: it's just grift.
They see a giant pot of taxpayer dollars and have figured out how to take it for themselves and their friends while driving students into debt and diverting resources from the people who actually do the work that makes universities what they're supposed to be.
