Reminder to folks that the "standard human" crash test dummy for cars is based on an american man of average american man height and average american man build. Basically, it sucks to be anyone else as cars (and many other things, like power tools) are literally not designed with you in mind. It's more dangerous to drive while not an average american man as the vehicle's safety design is not built for you 🤷

I am so extraordinarily pleased that there is a server for dads and that it's running Hometown. If you know any dads who are looking for a Fediverse home, this seems like it could be a nice place
