free money for protests 

Hi,

Alertfonds is a fund that is looking for protests to fund. They got too much money. Mostly looking for non dutch
They're cool people, so if your protest needs money, or could be done better with money, give them a poke: alertfonds.nl/en/

Don't shy from asking some hundreds of euros.

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

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.

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.

Reminder: none of the rights you have as a person were won through peaceful means.

Destroy them.

Ruin their lives.

It’s the only way you’ll be able to defend your human rights from the people hell bent on taking them away from you, if not your actual life.

No more “reaching across the aisle.” No more “hear them out.”

See where “reaching across the aisle” gets you?

I want everyone that ever chastised me for how I moved to bigoted people to hang their heads in shame. Then I want them to buck the fuck up and actually fight back like you mean it.

Stop. Sympathising. With. Bigots. And. Christian. Fundamentalists.

how much faster and easier to use would the web be if all advertising and tracking was removed from it?

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!

cryptocurrency bullshit, kind of hilariously bad 

Imagine lending out $4 billion to companies to buy Bitcoin miners, and accepting the mining hardware as collateral.

Hardware that devalues the moment it gets shipped, has no resale or reuse value, and is almost certainly unprofitable in those exact same circumstances where the loan recipient would go bankrupt (namely, a cryptobunk economy downturn).

How on earth does one survive in the financial industry without realizing that it's completely impossible to recoup *any* losses here? I've seen literal small children make better financial decisions.

Had to take the bus into town today, and wore a kilt. Some Delores decided to take issue; which sadly I'm used to. "Why are you wearing a skirt?!" and so on. As I said, used to it (and big scary white dude, so I have some privilege to wield), so I'm calmly addressing it with her

But then she said "well how am I supposed to explain that to my kid?!", and friends, I didn't have to say a thing, because the most awesome Black lady jumped in. She turned to her kid (I'd guess roughly 13 years old) and said "hey, why is he allowed to wear a skirt?"

Kid: "he's grown enough to wear whatever the fuck he wants"

Mom: "see?! Ain't hard ma'am"

Delores huffed but that was pretty much the end 🤣

#^PlasticArm: Get Your Next CPU, Made Without Silicon



Known for its core design IP that ends up in everything from IoT to smartphones to servers, Arm is now presenting that it has enabled one of its key microcontrollers in a new form factor: rather than using silicon as a base, the company has enabled a processor core in plastic. The technology has been in the works for almost a decade, but Arm has...

you're not even allowed to develop a sense of self before the age of 20. it's a happy accident if you do. before that, you're expected to be a bundle of nerves jumping to the cruel whims of random adults.

and these people want to increase that to age 25. actually disgusting.
