Mozilla Google budget screaming 

@ParadeGrotesque Psst, they’re not a not-for-profit. They’re a not-for-profit that owns a half-billion dollar for-profit corporation. Or, as their head of EU public policy once told me: “We’re just another Silicon Valley tech company, why are you holding us to a greater standard?”

Gee, I wonder why.

Maybe because that’s not how you present yourselves…

now that all the pixietown infra is fixed, time for my "morning" shower

i'm sorry for doxxing @haskal but the people have a right to see this cute

think @vantablack's dial-up is messing up, tons of line noise on the TL

fuck now I'm not sure if I subconciously read this and am stealing someone's joke or I just had the best idea ever

covid rel brand/mask recommendation 

the IKEA now has a reusable mask, the VETSKAP, for the price of a throwaway at 1 euro for 2 masks.

good quality, fits well, and good for 11 uses (10 washes)
