@f0x Me, a french canadian: I can't believe our culture keeps being reduced to this, not everything we do has to do with maple syrup, jeez
Also me: *has a father-in-law who runs a maple plantation as a hobby*

work 

been thinking that it'd probably be good to not be the sole frontend/js person for GoToSocial, but also I'm not sure i would work well together with anyone in that context...

> it's an implicit opt-in

aaaaaa the mental gymnastics

this will, of course, keep happening as long as Website Boy keeps adding APIs literally designed to show off instance metadata to scrapers, and shipping config defaults equivalent to "scrape me Mommy 🥺🥺🥺"

i wonder what part of (online) debate has made it so hard to be critical of things you support

i guess it's polarization, and foregoing of nuance?

meds, caffeine, bad 

me starting adhd meds: oh no i had 5mg of methylphenidate and slowly drank less than half a cup of coffee because i wanted to quite slowly and now im hella overstimulated

me now: takes 10mg with a swig of energy drink

can't wait till someone writes a nice color theme for GoToSocial, and then have it seamlessly work for FediFox and FediFox Shield too

This whole fediverse trend of responding to ideas about improving with moderation with "well just make a personal block list, there you go"

really need to die.

Personal filters and block lists are not "moderation" they aren't an affirmation of shared community values, they can't replace moderation to effectively stem the flow of hate content.

They don't meet the need.

If you don't have this need that is fine. There are places you can go. But lots of people do. jeeeeez

One thing I will say about that chart going around that shows monkeypox in rapid decline:

I can't help but notice that all the media outlets that bought into the gay disease panic narrative are reeeeeeeeeeal quiet about how effectively queer community mobilized to shut that danger down.

Really hyped drum and bass mix I found while looking up if Cercle (from the really well-produced techno/house sets) did any dnb too. They don't, but this mix is great :D
