@tanepiper *Really* not a fan of the framing of 'demanding environments' as being stuff like "needing to put food on the table", this 100% feels like a pretext for dropping disability support to me

Voorwaarschuwing voor de Dutchies hier: maandag is het weer NL-Alert testdag om 12:00. Dus dat gaat wat lawaai uit je telefoon geven.

Early warning for the Dutchies here: Monday it is again NL-Alert test day at 12:00. That will create some loud noise from your phone.

Got a marketing email from an app that sells train tickets, informing me that their “Crazy Black Friday Sale” is beginning on the 30th November, which is the Saturday

This doesn’t fill me with confidence about their ability to sell me tickets for travelling on the correct date…

please CW things like "like this post or X will happen". it's not great for folks with OCD and other neurodivergencies

@ramonita (That is, ways to do that that don't boil down to "spending half your energy trying to figure out who the informant is instead of doing useful work")

@ramonita I've been meaning to ask this for a while, but do you have any reading recommendations about how to deal with managing trust in action groups better than... whatever the fuck that group-hopping nonsense is?

hello, you who are on bluesky. can I ask a favor? can you make some noise about #rescueTransRescue over there? share a link to the shop or the site, talk about the stickers, etc. I would be very grateful!

site: rescue-trans-rescue.glitch.me/

edit: and feel free to link your posts in response to this one!

Oproepje voor mijn Friese volgers.

Er is een echte Friese Mastodon-instance, maar die worstelt om overeind te blijven. Weinig donaties, hij draait vooral op de privé-investeringen van de beheerder.

Weten jullie in je omgeving mensen of organisaties die trots zijn op hun Friese roots en dat best willen uitdragen op de Fediverse via een Friese naam? Wie kent er nou het top-level domein ".frl" tenslotte? 😉

@rallias There would be, but in this case "do you" really is the right phrasing for what I'm trying to work out 🙂

I'm glad I posted this poll because the results are not what I was expecting :)

in an effort to get folks to contribute more to the most marginalized folks' mutual aid requests, i'm open for small sketch requests for donations. send me proof of $10+ donation to a black or indigenous person's mutual aid and you get a little doodle request !

here is a non exhaustive list of such requests (updated 3/15): weirder.earth/@thief/114155764

Ich habe hier einen ganzen Eimer mit Einweg-Kühlpacks rumstehen.

Im Prinzip sind die noch gut zu gebrauchen und für den Müll zu schade.

Hat jemand in #Aachen Interesse daran?

Ich gebe sie kostenlos ab.

@herhandsmyhands Have the workers communicated how they would like the public to support their action? Not buying things, or deliberately keeping up the ordering to increase pressure, or something else?

A website I really miss is browsershots.org

It could create screenshots of a website in a quite a wide variety of browsers

It could be recreated as an open source project though... QEMU/Wine... Kinda expensive to run as SaaS but a modern computer can easily spawn 50+ parallel browsers in a minute I think

@miyuko It's currently accessible at joepie91-home.cryto.net:3500/ if you're curious (using test data) - cyan background is a debug indicator meaning it is loading messages from a simulated server that takes about a second to respond. Note that that link can stop working at any time, it's just my dev process running locally

I've linked my work-in-progress chat client in a few places now, and some of the most notable commentary includes "why does it look like basic Qt" and "are you making an IRC client?" which means I'm probably on the right path, given that it's a Matrix client that runs in a browser and the project is partly intended to disprove people's assumptions about what that means

Racism, sexism and bigotry in porn 

I remember there once was a meme or a post going around basically saying "are you a white cishet male or are you a porn category?" and I hate how accurate that still is..

Whenever I make the mistake of visiting mainstream porn sites I am reminded that if you want to see people of color, feminine people who aren't straight up underweight, trans people, queerness or otherwise anything that's NOT white people having straight sex you need to look through dedicated kink categories that specifically fetishize minorities. I do not understand how in the year of our lord 2024 it's still ok to have shit like "BBC", "blacked" and other similar "kinks" that reduce people of color to a weird fantasy of dominance on practically all the major porn sites.. If anyone out there is into that while believing it's not blatantly rooted in racism I think they have some serious introspection to do.
