Lexi is a solid litmus test for how pro-genocidal a platform is and it seems @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app really wants us to know that they love genocide and hate protest against genocide.

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

Hi lefty video essayists. If you have a cool idea you want to talk about in a video and you just start with a laundry list of how fucked everything is, I'm going to be too depressed to wait for you to get to your fucking point. We already know!

Also, is there an alternate Star Trek Wiki to Memory Alpha? I don't want to give Fandom any traffic at all, even if I am ad-blocking everything.

I literally don't even know what to say in an email to my elected officials because I'm getting too much bad news and I don't know if I'm confusing my crises and I feel like they won't care if I'm not 100% correct in my concerns (and probably won't anyway.) I can't handle four years of this.

You say: they shutdown USAID. You mean: they illegally broke in to a secure facility over a weekend, hijacked sensitive data on vulnerable people and US businesses, destroyed property Americans paid for, cut off resources for sick and hungry families, and fired Americans across the country.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

But is it? Where are the churches protesting trump? Where are the churches protecting immigrants and trans people? Other than the Quakers there is a lot of inaction and silence.

Wanting to get more into testing the sites I build in an actual screen-reader. Does a web screen reader exist for Linux Mint? I just checked out a few places and everyone is pointing to a reader and then saying it's "only available on Windows" as if that's a trivial matter.

I've got a lot of complicated thoughts about pulling my podcast and the state of internet "content" in general. But at the end of the day, I have been in such a better mood since ending the show. I wasn't even expecting that. I didn't even realize how much of a drag that thing was until I stopped.

capitalism filters the most short-sighted and cruel members of society to the positions of greatest power, those qualities being necessary for prioritizing short-term shareholder value over less important things like the planet not going on fire

A thing I often do is say "Well, everything sucks. I made all this shit and I don't like any of it and no one paid attention anyway. Time to burn it all down and start over." Anyway, my old podcasts and YouTube videos are probably going away early next year.

I use my library all the time. I like to borrow DVD box sets of old sitcoms I used to watch and it's just a nice place to work for a few hours free from distractions. When I travel, I always like to check out what the libraries are like.

I've always felt it's strange that Spider-Man has two distinct electricity-themed villains.

The NYPD is working to keep the flow of Amazon goods moving in NYC despite the strike. They’re breaking the Teamster picket line as best they can and serving Jeff Bezos. Working people everywhere should oppose policing for so many different reason.

86% of queer voters voted for Harris, one of the few groups that moved toward the Dems since 2020. They rewarded us with this feckless, genocidal, cowardly, boot-licking, amoral, child-abuse-wrapped-in-the-flag turd of a bill. Why would we vote for them ever again? bsky.app/profile/alli...

The solution is simple. Universal health care. How do we pay for it? No more qualified immunity for cops. Health insurance companies pivot to cop insurance. Cops have to pay for all of the death and destruction they cause through the insurance they're required to carry. Fixed!

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers: Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users. That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

Seems like everyone has an "After Dark" version of their show or "____ After Dark." Every time I see that, I get excited and think it's going to be about screen savers. But it never is. 😞

Jesse Singal is a liar and a fraud of a journalist and I will prove it as an unassailable fact in this thread. I'll also talk about why I don't think BlueSky moderation will do anything about him afterwards so stick around or maybe just skip to that if you don't want to read the boring details.

Over a century ago, the Piggly-Wiggly grocery chain invented self-service shopping, replacing the older method where you'd hand your list to a "shoppie" who'd gather your groceries for you while you waited. This turned out to be a much more efficient system that saved everybody money.

My big project: The Death Generator. It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything. deathgenerator.com

One reason you see folks reacting with such anger over Singal’s stated aim of showing up here and importing accounts to spoil the Bluesky environment is because he’s long worked to radicalize journalists against trans people. He is not a good faith actor.
