I think I can deal with it on my own. But if you're curious, it's right here:

https://github.com/a-random-lemurian/randstuff
Mostly random generators, like random ascii and hex.

Most of the time, those who are being denied their humanity, those who are restrained in their response, those who have no power or say in the conversation and those who are more emotional than trying to prop emotions are the marginalized in the conversation.

Alrighty then. I'm also worried about prejudice in say, machine learning. We humans are biased, so who's to say the AI training data isn't biased?

In fact, I might be biased right now and I probably would not realized it.

Indirectly. I named myself after the lost continent. It was a decent name, which is why I use it as my psuedonym on most of the internet.

And the lost continent in turn was named after... lemurs.
