PL politics, women's rights, PLEASE boost 

For context: the current Constitutional Court is pretty much a bunch of lapdogs for the ruling, conservative Catholic party.

They tried a few times to introduce a harsher abortion law, but chickened out after extremely widespread protests.

So they figured they'd change the situation via Constitutional Court ruling, while pretending to keep their hands clean.

This is unbelievably evil, but I guess that's how ultra-conservative Catholics roll.

PL politics, women's rights, PLEASE boost 

The Constitutional Court of Poland (which includes illegally appointed judges) just made a ruling regarding abortion law.

Abortion in PL is now illegal for p. much ANY reason. Women will be forced to give birth not just to children that result from rape. It'll actually be illegal to abort a foetus without lungs or a brain. No, this is not an exaggeration.

This is a EU country in 2020. Difficult to imagine, right?

Please boost to make this widely known.

blinks. So, now, Mastodon just leans hard into the dark patterns, and eats up half of my notifications column with a thing demanding to enable desktop notifications, and no way to dismiss it. 🙀

To add insult to injury, the annoying demand is laid out in a way that's more attention-grabbing than toots and such:

bright blue button, with an all-caps label;
different typography than the surrounding elements;
wider margins, which makes it pop out more (and eat more space) : even though “Never miss a thing” is only 1px bigger than display names, it seems much bigger due to its ample breathing room.

@kellerfuchs who even thought this was a good idea, we aren't birdsite, let people decide their own level of engagement

I hope everyone sensible patches it out

@junebug @deejvalen LONELY MONSTER AND THE BLIND GIRL IS OUT OF HIATUS THIS IS NOT A DRILL pixiv.net/en/artworks/85164099

when people try to defend copyright related shenanigans that happen with "well, the law says they're right", its like. you do realize the law itself is what we're taking issue with? you're not making a point by saying the law says its okay because its the law we want changed

we actually backdoored the switch on purpose. miyamoto didn't put our lead engineer's fursona is smash

@EeveeEuphoria @deejvalen pretty sure melly is asking because of my recent post, in which 2/3 of the depicted creatures are reptiles, at least

It's and also the second time I had support issues with the printer. I may have to raise the platform support thickness and exposure time...

@thomasfuchs I'm gonna need to salvage one of these old thins for my print cleaner, the tactile feedback is even better than the sound <3

If any of the cheap furniture in the shared basement isn't spoken for, I might just grab that
