Someone can have a bad take, or be expressing their frustration and overgeneralizing, and it doesn't mean they deserve to be dogpiled, attacked, excised, or blocked.

It is also true that two people can take away different _narratives_ or _readings_ for the same set of facts, with neither interpretation being "right" or "wrong," simply perspectives.

It is also true that certain generalizations are more tiresome or harmful and indvs should always feel empowered to prioritize themselves.

Vivian, Musk‘s trans daughter, has things to say about the Musk biography that portrayed her as brainwashed and a cause of trauma to her father (rather than the other way around) on Threads https://www.threads.net/@vivllainous/post/C-jgBWQxyRs/

Paris mayor drops f-bombs on anti-LGBTQ+ critics of Olympic opening ceremonies -

But while the ceremony organizers have denied any intention to recreate “The Last Supper” or offend others, Hidalgo was much more blunt, saying in a recent interview, “F*k the reactionaries, fk this far-right, f*k all of those who would like to lock us into a war of all against all.”

Limited-federation networks

Super stoked that @oliphant@oliphant.social started ION, a limited federation network that uses allow lists instead of deny lists.

If there's one thing that we know so far in light of these recent discussions about moderation, is that we don't know what the solution is, nor whether a one size fits all approach is even feasible.

There will always be communities who value reach above all, and there will be other communities (especially marginalized ones) to whom limited federation has great appeal.

This is a wonderful experiment, and I wish them all the best!

Gerade erreichte uns dieser Brief von Frau L. Sie ist die 1.000. Person, die der Freiheitsfonds aus dem freigekauft hat. Zusammen mit ihr konnten gestern weitere 62 Menschen früher nach Hause, die wegen fehlender Tickets in Bus und Bahn im Gefängnis saßen.

Auf dem Bild ist ein Teil eines handschriftlch geschriebenen Briefes und oben und unten ein Erklärtext abgebildet. Erklärtext oben: "Gerade erreiche uns ein Brief von Frau L. Sie ist die 1.000. Person, die wir freigekauft haben." Brief: " Ich bin Ihnen mehr als Dankbar für Ihre Hilfe, dass ich schnellstmöglich ausgelöst werde und nac Hause kann zu meiner Familie und mich auf die bevorstehende Geburt in Ruhe vorbereiten kann zu Hause." Erklärtext unten: " Sie kann nun die anstehende Geburt zuhause vorbereiten. Frau L. ist nämlich im 7ten Monat schwanger."

Für ihn ist kein Fluss zu breit, keine Pfütze zu tief, kein Strudel zu gefährlich, kein Sprichwort zu weit hergeholt, keine Schuhsohle zu zäh, keine Erdbeere zu gefriergetrocknet – und kein Thema zu schwierig, um es anzugehen. Unser liebster Grüner-Pulli-Träger wird heute 72 Jahre alt. 💚

Die Desinformation zum Thema olympisches Boxen hört einfach nicht auf. Rechte und andere Transfeinde wollen nicht wahrhaben, dass die algerische Boxerin Imane Khelif eine Frau ist. Ihre drei lächerlichsten Fakes haben wir darum hier widerlegt.

So much of what I care about in computing boils down to: Can we please stop capitalists from being the ones to shape our technological reality? Can we please stop living in a cyberpunk world?

As such it goes beyond computing! I'm an anti-capitalist, a degrowther!

Let alone the injustice of requiring us to work to earn a living, the people who can afford to pay a living wage repeatedly prove to be terrible judges of what work needs to be done. So can we workers please judge it for ourselves?

xpost from linkedin. Would appreciate a signal boost, especially in the EU. Hoping to find a workplace that is as furry friendly as VRChat was.

I'm looking for a new role as a result of the layoffs.

"You get more conservative when you get older" only really worked for the generations that got RICHER as they got older.

The real truth was always just "You get more selfish the more money you have".

we're a small underfunded team with a majority queer developers, and while we're punching way above our weight class we need the support of our community if this game is going to be a success. please boost this post, and if you can afford it buy it on steam and leave a positive review on the first day (the text doesn't matter, only the thumbs up, so "i like gay fops" is totally valid as a review)

i also want to prove fedi is powerful enough to make an indie game succeed, so even if you're not personally that into the game, please boost this post? 🙏

Fediverse, ich brauche eure Hilfe! Bald wird meine Website an den Start gehen, die das Ziel verfolgt, Spenden für die Open Medicine Foundation zu sammeln, die an ME/CFS forscht. Ich bin selbst seit 08/2023 schwer an ME/CFS erkrankt und überwiegend bettlägerig. Um die Website, die auch über die Krankheit aufklärt, weit zu streuen, suche ich nach Journalist:innen, die bereit wären, etwas zu diesem Thema zu schreiben und die Website dabei aufzugreifen. Bitte teilen!

I just realized a good argument against computer ads.

Contrary to regular ads, it is actually using your resources (your power, time on the CPU you bought, etc)

So, shouldn't ad companies paying you money for displaying their ads? Like they pay billboard owners or news paper owners, etc.

So until then, using ad block is just preventing theft.

Bock, die wegen zu geringer Anstrengungen beim zu verklagen, aber keine Ahnung, wie?

Bock, und Konsorten in den 🍑 zu treten, aber kein Geld für ne Anwältin?

Gar kein Problem - schließ Dich einfach als Nebenkläger*in der von @germanwatch an, die sie zusammen mit @greenpeace_de und Einzelkläger*innen, u.a. mir - und Dir? - beim Bundesverfassungsgericht einreichen!

Oh gods it's true it's so fucking true dragncrysmile

A post on Twitter from user rahaeli (@rahaeli) that reads, "Sometimes people ask me how I know all the random shit I know (with varying levels of politeness and belief in it's veracity) and all I got is 'I have ADHD, an internet connection, really good research skills, and zero self-regulatory mechanisms'"
