This is your regular reminder that, despite the mass denial everywhere around you, the minimising and the disinformation:

Avoiding infection from a potentially deadly and possibly disabling disease is the right thing to do.

Your health matters a lot.

You're doing great.
Don't need to be perfect, just the best you can sustain, because we're in it for the long haul.

Take care of yourself and each other.

#CovidIsNotOver

i love how once in a while i'll just see a new version of the polyamory flag. the original is so ugly people want to improve it, but also so endearing and nerdy it has inexplicable staying power

I hate how sarcasm and general hostility is so imbued in our culture that neutral or even positive phrases have been decided to now be signs of hostility.

That part of "bypassing much of the agency individual people might otherwise have to avoid them" is reflected in #Google integrating #Bard into android messenger. While academics worry about AI sentience and toy with them as objects of study, this is capitalism baby, and the information conglomerates came to kill each other and capture the market now that investors are calling due on stagnant ad money. It doesnt matter if the LLMs work. That's about as effective of an argument as saying politicians lie. Theyre just the pretense for a new modality of surveillance spanning individuals, groups, businesses, and governments.

#natenom wurde gestern von der Straße geschossen. Und getötet. Nein, nicht er 'kollidierte' mit dem Auto und 'erlitt [tödliche] Verletzungen', wie die lokalen Zeitungen apologisierend berichten.
Ich kenne ihn erst seit kurzem aus dem #Fediverse , aber seine Berichte aus #Fahrradmordor sprachen mir als #Alltagsradler und #Velomobil-Fahrer aus der Seele.

Unermüdlich benannte er die Missstände in der

This is your irregularly scheduled reminder that Christianity is just one kind of religion and not the universal human standard for any and all religions.

Atheists, especially, please tale note. When you make this mistake* you work to further Christian hegemony, which is theoretically counter to your stated goals.

* A mistake repeated enough times starts to look purposeful.

...I just found out that apparently a lot of people use the right shift key o.o

I thought it was a completely pointless key that nobody ever uses 💀

@jacksonchen666 (It looks like some level of automation may be involved there? If not, that definitely looks exactly like 'heading for burnout' to me)

A reminder that if your Github/whatever contribution graph looks "all green", you are most likely headed for a burnout

Vraag niet wat het land voor jou doen kan, maar vraag wat jij kunt doen tegen de pvv. #FCKPVV

@ionica Hmm, ik las wel de paragraaf voor de tekst die ernaast stond :p

@eater Yeah, search for Smurfit Kappa Parenco and look at the reviews for example

I find it kind of fascinating how cargo truck drivers (at least in NL) seem to have basically adopted Google Reviews as their platform for exchanging data with other truckers about what they should expect from the companies they load/unload at, and which ones are shitty about it

Heeft er iemand suggesties voor een links-activistisch -kanaal?

Hoeft niet per se activisme als aangewezen onderwerp te hebben, het gaat me er meer om dat de community duidelijk inclusief en activistisch ingesteld is (en dat het niet alleen maar een linkdump is van deprimerende nieuwsberichten o.i.d.)

Overpopulation isn't a problem.

Inadequate and unjust resource distribution is.
