Folks, if networking is king, where is a centralized space for atypical individuals? I'm talking people left of center. People working with what th...

Guess we gather somewhere else, cause there's zero responses here =P!
Bahhh, sorry I missed this post, Jo.
Those places that Rachel mentioned are great!
Also, we have a yearly event for Pride month where we encourage folks to post under #devpride (and some folks post under #pride).
As Rachel mentioned though, we could certainly get better organized here!
Hahaha, no worries Michael! I was hoping to catch some fish, as they say. Baiting them with this post. LGBTQA+ is cool, but damned if I didn't want more than a single segregation of folks. I feel like there's a small underground army of individuals who are just waiting to be united. I want that intersectionality, of what people would consider the crayon nubbins of the world. Then I want them melted together to form a jumbo-crayon ;P!
I'm gunna follow those tags too by the by! Thank you!
Haha, thanks for spelling it out to me... love the melted jumbo crayon analogy! 🙌
For what it's worth, I most definitely consider myself to be in the "weirdo" and "freak" category. At least that's who I aspire to be... all my heroes are weird and freaky haha!
It would be really fun to try and build a gathering of us like-minded oddballs...
Maybe we could us an org or create a dedicated tag. Gonna think on this for a bit! 🤔
Lol to this comment, we would love to have a more clustered queer place here!
We do have a DEV tag:
#lgbtq
That I have always wanted to revive. Good luck to ya and let me know if I can lend a hand!
Ah, seems like we also have:
#lgbt
#trans
and maybe some org pages too! @michaeltharrington mentioned to me
Feministech
Thanks for this Rachel. They're a good start, but I don't want to just be relegated to queers. I love my freaks and geeks too! I wish there was a space for all folks considered "other" to gather. So we can gather in ranks, and help one another up the ladder together. I'm gunna follow the lot though.
Thanks again!
