My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

Hello it is me
I am the extreme alt left
I am here to bully you online into accepting ridiculous ideas like:
* Literally everyone deserves a good life
* Universal, unconditional healthcare
* No one should have too much power over anyone else

Developers, PLEASE, for the love of all that is holy, don't disable pasting into password fields.
We all want to use more secure passwords, but if for some reason our password manager doesn't work with your site or app, having to 10-finger a long password is annoying.

Many people know Ubuntu Touch but very few have heard about its predecessor the Ubuntu Shuffle
@kookie@octodon.social But does it have an "ADHD walk?" parameter

@owashii "if you actually defend yourself with violence you are as bad as them"
Libs end up fetishizing nonviolence, which only really serves the fash. Because they use that "don't be violent" aspect to put pressure on the left, while the right and fash are understood to be violent by default
And like
Nonviolence is a tool
It's useful
But it's not *the only tool*
It's the compromise position. "Deal with me, fix the situation, or then you deal with others who will be more active in their defense"
@llamasoft_ox Because an awful lot of people (wrongly) believe they are immune to propaganda.

I’m exhausted by the way so many people believe that if they just remain obedient and subservient, capitalism will eventually reward them for their effort, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Squatnet: **Amsterdam: eerste kraakaktie van het jaar, Spui 11**
"Gister is er een nieuw pand bekendgemaakt, er is een kleine manifestatie gehouden op het spuiplein en zijn flyers uitgedeeld aan de bijstaanders. Politie is ter plaatsen geweest en geeft aan nog niet over te gaan tot ontruiming. Het pand vestigde 179 jaar lang de muziekwinkel Ha…"

concern trolling, polarization, DEI
Concern trolling about “polarization” only serves the status quo. If others caring about inclusion and stating ways in which things are exclusionary, makes one feel attacked, one was never really on the side of DEI.

.art has one moderator for every ~1000 active users, 10 mods total right now, spread over all timezones.
We have six or seven of the top eight languages used on our instance covered (and more that aren't in the top 8), and we're an entirely queer team; our team has BIPoC, queer, ND and disabled voices with a great deal of intersectionality between them.
I say this because I'm proud of our team, and I'm glad to have their voices contributing to keeping .art a safe space. <3
@aliettejonkers@newsie.social Die had ik ook al gezien, maar het is niet echt een *bron*. Die cijfers van het RIVM moeten ergens vandaan komen - hoe wordt de fijnstofuitstoot van vuurwerk precies berekend? Hoe zit dat met de berekening van fijnstofuitstoot van auto's, en op welke data is dat gebaseerd? Is de fijnstofuitstoot van bijv. autobanden daarin meegenomen? Want de passage in dat artikel suggereert dat er enkel vergeleken wordt met de "uitlaatuitstoot" en dat is niet juist, en zou de uitkomst sterk vertekenen.
Ik denk dat er best goede argumenten te maken zijn voor een vuurwerkverbod, maar de beredenering moet dan wel steek houden. Op het moment dat er dit soort opvallend (en implausibel) hoge cijfers rondgeslingerd worden zonder duidelijke onderbouwing, dan gaat er iets niet goed.

As a child playing the Sims allowed me to act out adult fantasties like having my own house to decorate, doing well in a career, and raising a family. As an adult I play the Sims to act out wild fantasies like having my own house to decorate, doing well in a career, and raising a family.
@aliettejonkers@newsie.social Waar komt die statistiek over "evenveel fijnstofuitstoot als zeven maanden aan autoverkeer" eigenlijk vandaan? Want ik zie hem onlangs steeds weer langskomen, maar iedere keer zonder bronvermelding.

Masto wishlist
A moderation workflow that lets me immediately suspend a bad actor, while still flagging the instance it's on for further review, without hiding the report, so I don't forget about it
