Let me just add that tomatoes aren’t the only indicator of how much you’re going to enjoy watching a film, resp. of how “good” or “bad” a film is. badmovies.org for example uses skulls and slime drops, and while the two websites may have very different rating criteria, both are legit and can be valuable sources of entertainment.

Garmin Explore has a bit of a learning curve but offers a variety of very good maps and (once you’ve discovered where the web developers have hidden them) tons of nifty features. One of them is waypoints: you stick a flag somewhere and can give it a name, icon and colour. That sounds like the thing you’re looking for.
The downside is that it’s made for outdoor stuff so you get street names and some POIs, but no turn-by-turn navigation.

I use the website (https://explore.garmin.com/) to plan my tours and import/manage GPX files, and the Android app and an inReach 2 Mini satellite messenger while underway. The three sync seamlessly.

Since I have a paid subscription (required for satellite access) I can’t tell you what (if anything) you get for free, but it should be relatively easy to find out if you think it might be what you’re looking for.

For car navigation I used TomTom Go - it costs something but the quality of POIs and navigation is far superior to Google Maps in my experience. You can also add your own locations but have to do it on the phone by hand.
In my new car I use Google Maps because it came with the car and there’s no real alternative at the moment. I do miss my TomTom app.

I am genuinely not sure what you mean by the current state of affairs.

Sorry, I didn’t mean to sound mysterious, I just didn’t think it was necessary to elaborate.

The thing is that there are three overlapping discussions on pronouns and the choice of certain words now, and as much as I appreciate the mutual exchange of ideas, I feel like a lot of what I’d have to say could be interpreted by some people as (re)starting arguments that lead nowhere… in other words, the return on investment in this thread is rather low.
Not to mention that I’ve started finding the whole topic tiresome. I’m all for people being who they want to be without judgement (and I have decades of past actions to prove that), but I also have the right not to care about other people’s perception of themselves or have that perception imposed upon me. And I’m invoking that right now for the sake of my own wellbeing. A few days without social media sound just about right.

You take care too, and see you in another thread sometime!

I took my time writing a lengthy response to this, but considering the current state of affairs I’m not sure it’s a good idea to continue this discussion at the moment, even if in a strictly theoretical and stressedly respectful way. Maybe we can cross paths some other day in some other forum, I think I’d quite enjoy exchanging ideas with you. In the meantime take care.

ISTR some essay about OP not identifying as a lesbian anymore for reasons I didn’t quite understand, but considering themselves a goddess now. I must stress though that I only skimmed the text and couldn’t be bothered to reread it for this post, so if you want a reliable source you should find it on OP’s website. There are links to it all over the threads in question.

According to FlightStats and FlightRadar24, the original plane was a Boeing 777-206 from 2003, which has been replaced by a 777-300 from 2023. It’s en route now over the Atlantic.

So an issue caused by Boeing’s recent series of quality problems seems unlikely, unless there was a dodgy spare part involved.

I’ve upvoted your post because I perceive you as respectfully voicing your opinion and mentioning supporting observations. I don’t get these vibes from @Grail@aussie.zone’s rants at all.

Inclusion and tolerance are important, but I feel like @Grail@aussie.zone is abusing these concepts. And that may or may not be a part of their diagnosis (who could even tell for sure), but the point is, people can’t expect everybody around them to accommodate each and every aspect of their state of mind all the time. Just as @Grail@aussie.zone has a right to voice an opinion (withing the boundaries set by the community’s rules), so does everybody else. And that means people have a right to disagree with each other and/or call out obvious BS.

TL;DR: This is generally an extraordinarily tolerant community, but most people here are not therapists or psychiatrists looking to do pro-bono work.

So, besides all the assumptions you make and, let’s say debatable conclusions you draw from them: your point is that the solution to the problem of this particular case of (perceived) ableism is that we simply pretend that Trump is just your regular low-key average Joe? Or are you attempting to solve the problem by prohibiting a word that you personally don’t like to hear and calling it a day?
I’m still not sure I understand what you’re getting at.

Edit: spelling/grammar.
