Hey I found an open source menstrual cycle tracking app called Drip that doesn't call home to anyone and encrypts your data on your device. It's gender inclusive and it has a prebuilt version Android that you can get either on F-Droid or on their site here: https://bloodyhealth.gitlab.io
They have an iOS version but it's not pre compiled. I'll be working on that today so you can get loaded onto your Apple devices, along with the instructions to install it on said Apple device.
Please boost so others can see this!

@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev I've definitely seen this somewhere in the past.

made a post on a local queer internet forum attempting to incite a riot over roe v Wade and now undercover cops posing as drug dealers are messaging me
re: discussion regarding matrix (IM) and privacy
@kescher @shahaan@eldritch.cafe Or to put it differently: Matrix seems to generally be held to much higher standards here than other systems, and often with disregard for what's actually technically viable.
And worse, the whole sentiment of "Matrix is so terrible with metadata" seems to originate from a malicious concern troll (Maxidorius) in the first place, and retroactively filled in by others with less outlandish claims to support it...
re: discussion regarding matrix (IM) and privacy
@kescher @shahaan@eldritch.cafe I think that it's important to remain critical of metadata littering, but I also think that people tend to unfairly magnify Matrix's position in that.
The metadata it retains is generally pretty standard operational stuff that any system keeps (which allows it to function technically), and the one general-purpose system which claims to keep less metadata (Signal) is highly suspect in its claims on the topic, and definitely not peer-reviewed.
I wonder how quickly the US would grind to a halt if everybody went on strike until abortion rights were reinstated.

given that opinion polling shows that the majority of people in this country actually tend to come down on the good/humane side of questions posed to them about stuff like abortion, why don't we just pack the court up to a reasonable sample size of the populace? the constitution says nothing of how many seats there are supposed to be so,
I dunno I figure a million should cut it? like basically 1 out of every 300 Americans should be on the supreme court.
@autumnal I assure you that I am 100% serious :D

@katnjiapus@toot.site @schratze As a burger enjoyer, all burgers are terrible compared to a very specific burger I ate in a very specific restaurant when I was a teenager, which was literally plate-sized (but fairly thin) and drenched in cheese
Legitimately the best burger I've had in my life, unfortunately the restaurant no longer exists :(

Gentle reminder; don't brag about your cool crimes (like doing graffiti) on here. It's not a secure place. That's how people get caught. In general, it's important to learn to be happy being a secret bad ass.
If you need help doing cool crimes, only tell one or two people you'd trust with your life. Make sure they won't tell anyone, even if they get arrested. The Weather Underground and the people who exposed CoIntelPro got away with it because they all kept quiet.

how much faster and easier to use would the web be if all advertising and tracking was removed from it?
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev Oh, that's just because of the Bitcoin exchange rate fluctuating

People with uteruses have been prosecuted before for being victims of gun violence during a certain 9 months if you get my drift.
Miscarriages Will be monitored.
And if you don't think this will affect you, because you don't have a uterus, it will
Just because they've come for this right first doesn't mean it will be the LAST right they go for.
I haven't read the current opinion, but when I understood of the leaked draft was it was abundantly clear they were coming for other rights as well.

what happened in the United States today
@JonathanMBR in the United States, the Supreme Court--our Top Lawmakers--just said that access to abortion is *not* a protected right. this means that some of our more extremist states that have already repeatedly tried to make abortion a crime can do so. in their statement they also said that protecting gay and interracial marriages was "a mistake" that they intend to "correct," so we all know what they're going after next.
unfortunately, Supreme Court judges are lifetime appointments--we can't vote them out, or have any way to remove them, unless they die. the extremist right-wing religious party has been pushing to get their judges into the Supreme Court for a couple of decades now, they have a majority, and this is the result.
also that is a *fantastic* picture!
