patriarchal ideology runs so deep in our culture that it'd be a mistake to make this just a conversation about 'bad men'. it's about the domination and denial of bodily autonomy that structure daily life (also via transphobia, genocide, carcerality, labor exploitation, etc) and needs to end.

This is an exceptionally clear presentation of New Mexico’s exceptionally clear findings that Facebook wantonly and intentionally deceived the public in regards to the theft of their data and the incentives to promote and profit from hate speech on the platform. Tap in, scroll down.

Does it get exhausting being so cracked 🌩️

I dont talk enough about how Germ is for the gig economy. As relationships and communities become transient, we need tools that let us modulate what we share with whom over time— Rather than the opt-in-forever paradigm of yesterday’s identities and the networks they become

I agree with the first sentence here. But as for the second, I think young people are extremely aware they’re dodging censors everyday. What they don’t know is it wasn’t always like that.

This, alongside world peace, is the actual holy grail

Gotcha, I misunderstood you there

the idea that any “safety” scene is at the heart of this conversation shows how deeply deeply fucked this and by extension all of us all are

Sigh. I didn’t know I was a trigger warning weekend. Sending love

So maybe they’re calling out that the pablum language about suspensions is about safety but in fact there is no real process in place for determining long term safety I find this argument valuable. All perpetrators should’ve been expelled—not just for others safety but for their own accountability

This is even more precise than I remembered (sorry I didn’t re consult the text) The senate itself says suspensions end with the end of risk of harm. So they’re asking, how did the process determine the end of “all students”’ risk of harm from these men? How do you read it?

I think they’re making an argument about public safety, not the suspension process. I understood this as saying: these men were only suspended, which implies their danger to the campus was understood to have an ending. If so, how was the ending of their dangerousness determined

Meanwhile can we still have trains and fiber

I feel like I upgraded to priority pickup a bunch of times and now Lyft is throttling my standard ride waits ☹️

The latest answer in my brain for why is it called Germ: Because we’re the opposite of Facebook. Facebook plays innocuous and innocent when it’s hugely powerful and manipulative. Germ is honest and transparent about the joys and dangers of modern life, and builds tools that equip you for both
