still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

The propensity for so many people who live in 'blue' states to have this mentality of "lets just abandon the 'red' states to the worst of this because this is those people's fault and they deserve it" is a clear sign they are not at all as far removed from fascism as they think they are.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

Trying to imagine what it'd take for me to yell at a server. Like if I ordered an omelette and they brought me a bowl of rats? But I'd probably still just be like "I'm sorry, you seem to have brought me someone else's bowl of rats."

It’s the flag America carried into war to stomp the bones of dead Confederate slavers into the mud where they belonged, & to stomp dead Nazis’ bones into the mud where they belonged. America is its people & the flag a symbol of what we make it, good & bad. It’s always on us to make it mean better.

So it turns out that compared to centralized distribution of digital information on the web, printed material in libraries provided a kind of distributed defense against the casual whims of an authoritarian government aiming to rewrite history.

Watching some particularly hashtag resist folks in "blue" states melt down when Canadians make sweeping generalizations about how Americans voted for this and so they deserve whatever happens... And man. That sounds SO familiar. I wonder where I've heard it before. Maybe they should just move!

I love English. It's a trash fire disguised as a language and I'm here for all of it. However, I really need to be better about people not speaking it "correctly." It's a goddamn trash fire. Of course people don't speak it correctly. I'm pretty sure there's no correct way to speak it. And that's leaving out all the racism and classism which goes into
"grammatical perfection."

English isn't Latin. It's a glorious clusterfuck of stolen parts bolted onto a bastard chassis and powered entirely by the burning of dictionaries. There is no way that it should be the lingua franca of international affairs, and yet it is. Speak it any way you want. English doesn't give a fuck. English will take your error and turn it into a part of itself. 

English drinks prescriptivist tears like fine wine. Contribute to the delinquency of English any way you can.

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...

Today would have been Carl Sagan's 90th birthday. He wrote this in 1995. Carl was absolutely right. #CarlSaganDay
I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time - when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30-second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance.

I'm hearing and reading so many stories about how the dock workers strike could wreak havoc on our supply chain and all I can think is, well then you better pay them what they're asking. Seems like an easy solution. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The US South is already being hard hit by climate change, the burden is already falling on the Black and the poor and the disabled, none of which DeSantis is. Cheering on our deaths to stick it to a fascist ain't it.

Here's the truth: artists AREN'T special-- in that we don't have some special Art Pass. EVERY human is an artist, if they would let themselves be one. Artists are just practised at it. To tell yourself art is so beyond you that you'd rather let a machine vomit something out-- that is a tragedy.

Fan fiction is taking back what belongs to the people
Fan fiction is a way of the culture repairing the damage done in a system where contemporary myths are owned by corporations instead of by the folk." Henry Jenkins, Director of Media Studies at MIT, 1997.

My politics boil down to people should be free to live their lives without fear and pain. They should be clothed, housed, and allowed to prosper. Their bodies should be nurtured through access to food and medical care. Joy and security should not be the hoarded resources they are.
