Come to think of it, we need way more clarity about the app/relay situation re: moderation given that some users on the non-default apps could find some of my posts while I was suspended, but they couldn’t find my account.

What do you expect, scorpion and frog, etc etc but it's astonishing what a piece of shit this guy is. Just psychologically, easily one of the worst people alive
Her breaking point came after the president called her a "traitor.
Of the torrent of threats that followed, one stood out. It was aimed at her son.
"That's the one that bothers me on a visceral level," she said.
Ms. Greene reached out to Mr. Trump, hoping for compassion from a president she had stood by for years. She forwarded copies of the threats to him, hoping that seeing the threats against her family would be enough to tone down the attacks.
She got a five-word reply from the president: "Your fault, you deserve it."

I don't know what to do witht he way some people take it as axiomatic that popularity or political success is in itself compelling evidence of not being a Nazi. This seems like quite an odd thing to think, in light of the thing where Adolf Hitler was elected.

When using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.

This framing makes even MORE sense when we start thinking about how legislators and political actors have framed issues of trans rights in terms of individual choice as opposed to fundamentally grounded in how trans people are in the world through their bodies.

If transness is just to be humored as a kind of play-acting, then of course more "material" issues will take on a more pressing character. On this view, even if the current regime rolls back gender affirming care and criminalizes transition, we can just fix policy when we come to power again.

Hack: when looking for references of people, take screenshots from videos rather than drawing from actual photos. You’ll end up with a more unique reference. Also, use screenshots of locations from street view in Google earth when drawing backgrounds. You’ll end up with references nobody else has

People are discussing how Halloween candy is so terrible these days. A reminder that alot of the candy we eat is made with women’s prison labor. Russell Stover’s factory in Kansas busses in 150 women a day via a convict leasing program to staff their candy factory.
Russell Stover has begun using prison labor to make candy in
Kansas
A Russell Stover candy factory in Kansas has begun hiring incarcerated workers through a work release program, Eoin Higgins reports in his newsletter, The Flashpoint. About 150 women are bussed in from the Topeka Correctional Facility and paid $14 an hour, but the prison keeps some of their wages for room and board, taxes, transportation, and other expenses. When all is said and done, they take home less than $6 per hour. These deductions are high, but elsewhere in the country, they're even higher: In our May series on prison

(Also, fascists tend to spend huge amounts of time obsessing over their public image so poking them with the slightest bit of goofiness, eg couch fornication, will often cause them to crash out and spend weeks trying to fix _that_ instead of doing new evils. Which is also fun to watch.)

The fascists being made fun of will not change their behavior, but to communities, knowing there are other people out there who hate Thiel or Musk or Trump's guts is _hugely_ important. It gives them permission to show their own contempt, and it swells from there.
