@sindarina Waar het lastig wordt is wanneer je consistent taalgebruik wilt hebben voor zowel zelfstandige naamwoorden als werkwoorden, want een 'bijwerking' is dan weer iets heel anders

We are Mitosis, a newly formed intersectional anarchist radical communal care collective.

We are members who split from our original "Radical Communal Care" group. 
Our priority is caring for each other, for the planet, for other beings. This care is both our goal and a means to an end to create a more just world, that is safe for everyone.
In a world with violent capitalist politics, war, an ongoing pandemic and on the brink of a climate catastrophe, caring for one another is a radical act. It is both the smallest and the biggest thing that we can do right now, every day.
We recognize how the violent hierarchical systems we were raised in can impact our actions, and want to learn and unlearn together. We strive to create an environment in which we can feel safe to do so.
We extend empathy to others and to ourselves, try our best to understand each other and celebrate our differences.

Our intersectional values lead us to oppose all forms of oppression and injustice, including but not limited to ableism, speciesism, racism, queerphobia.

We advocate for wearing masks, cleaning the air, accessibility, inclusion.

Please follow us to keep up-to-date with our development and ways to get involved as we grow as a collective.

The term "Luddite" has become synonymous with "technophobe" but that's not what the Luddites were about. They were a labour movement that fought to give workers control over the technology that was advancing without oversight and rapidly automating them out of their jobs. Sound familiar?

"Luddite" as a pejorative was a technocrat PR coup.

layoffs, labour exploitation

Looks like even the WaPo is catching on to the privileged position of tech workers vaporizing.

The best time to start unionizing was yesterday. The next best time is now.

Tekenaar @royaards verbeeldt in @Trouw heel treffend hoe verschillend Nederland en Duitsland op de opkomst van het fascisme reageren. #NieWiederFaschismus #WirSindDieBrandmauer

i propose an internet-wide server eepy time, where once every month, we just shut down all long-running servers so they can rest for a bit :3 and that way internet users can get some time off the web too!

If neurotypicals are allowed to be so fucking annoying in public, maybe we should just stim to annoy them back :neofox_woozy:

I remember when i finished my last year in high school, my art teacher told me “promise me you will never stop doing art, please”

And i was really confused, because i was not good at it
And i thought that my art was really ordinary

I really didn’t why she told me that
Why me?

And more than a decade later, i finally understood: it was never about doing great art, but all about having fun making it

I always had fun doing her art exercises, even if it wasn’t good or very ordinary

I didn’t realize it at the time, certainly because of alexythimia and masking (so self gaslighting), but yeah, i loved her classes

And i loved making art

I stopped art for years, but two years ago i started again and since i experienced a lot of fun! ^w^

"Ah but what if we can tame the torment nexus? What if we can redirect its power and domesticate it, make it serve the people? Why should we throw away the opportunity to use the torment nexus for good instead of evil?"

"Aha meta is coming to us! Now we'll rule the roost! It's our time! Our time to be important! To get the recognition and accolades we deserve! We will be the fediverse ambassadors!"

a phone is a device you use to run the app for your bank, your health insurance, and your transit authority, because all of those companies are incapable of making a website

@frumble@chaos.social @schratze That's a common belief (about the bandwidth), but it's not really true, it depends entirely on how the website is built. On a technical level there's often barely a difference between the two.

The native UI toolkit availability is a legitimate issue, but many of these apps don't seem to use those in the 'native' apps either.. :/

(I do wish that browsers would reliably expose platform-native UI styling)

"we must force Meta to be accountable" has real "we must push Biden to the left" energy

non-google/apple smartphone OSes are doomed because people categorically need those apps and the companies will only ever make them for the last three versions of android with an active google account

Like, I *was* one of the people trying to get IRC into a more modern shape, and I eventually gave up due to the constant hostile responses, I'm not just saying things here

Show thread

"We don't need XMPP or Matrix, IRC works fine now" is an especially frustrating claim because that new development of IRC features seems to be a direct consequence of XMPP and especially Matrix threatening to eat IRC's lunch (ie. would not have happened without them), and for the longest time IRC proponents would refuse to accept any sort of complaints about IRC having become unusably outdated

Respect yourselves. Stop letting people tell you that the reason kids sleep twelve hours and can't remember breakfast is from missing a few months of school years ago, and not from sitting in rooms full of filthy air, cycling a degenerative plague back and forth for years after.

"immunity debt"
"desocialized"

You should be livid that you were ever expected to believe such bald-faced bullshit. You should be livid for the life they stole from all of us, and especially, from your very sick kids.
