Grindr in 2036:

Grindr runs on XMPP so you could bridge Matrix to it. Do with this information what you will

Superpower concept:
Guy who already has an appointment. He's already on the list. Your boss is expecting him. He has a to-good order waiting. Its probably under his last-name if you can just check again real-fast.

"I came here to stand up for the rights of a minority... but this crowd looks like a majority." - Judit Hernádi

#BudapestPride today was illegal... but also the largest we had in 30 years. Incredible turnout. Trying to ban it made it stronger. Propaganda trying to make hate the majority opinion failed.

A handful of counter-protesters blockaded the Freedom Bridge (because irony is lost on them), but the parade moved one bridge over and passed them by.

#Pride #lgbtqia

Hungary has banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which essentially means Pride. Today over 500,000 people in Budapest turned up for a Pride march and told the government to: 'Fuck off!'.

Today there was a demonstration in #Amsterdam for free migration and refugee rights. Organised by MiGreat (https://migreat.org/en). The weather was great (a bit to sweltering) with mostly nice people. The only disappointment was the turnout, but that also made it nicer in a certain way. The reason for the turnout was probably; 1. people were to tired after the NATO-summit; 2. the municipality decided to move us out of the center, a 15 min. walk from the nearest public transport (although not having to trip over tourists is also a plus); 3. there was also a demo against an anti-refugee demo in Haarlem.

Here is a short time-lapse (via MiGreat with permission, blur is ours) at the moment we arrived back in the Martin Luther King Park (the start and finish).

📣 A shout-out to @MokumTegenFascisme.

Liefde voor Jos en Chantal die ervoor hebben gezorgd dat ik naar WHY2025 kan gaan. ❤️

Voor wie het niet weet; ik heb multiple sclerose en kan niet goed lange stukken lopen/lang staan.

Jos en Chantal hebben hier pro actief oplossingen voor mij voor gevonden, zodat ik toch naar WHY2025 kan.

Shoutout 💪🍀.

Hackers are the coolest people on the planet. Change my mind.

Hold and attend de-escalation, conflict resolution, first-aid, volunteer medic, and self-defense workshops in your neighborhood, school, workplace, or community organization.

And yes, we can tell when it’s “AI art”

I am begging writers & writing-related-workers of all kinds—but especially people working in journalism and blogs—to stop using “AI art” to accompany your writing.

Please have solidarity with your fellow creative workers 💜

I've been thinking a lot about that idea of "community is something you establish, not something you end up in" and how a lot of eg. queer discourse revolves around "the queer community" when it should probably revolve around solidarity between *different* queer communities instead

Pigeons love posing for photos. They are fabulous and they know it.

AI is dogshit. And the more contact people have with AI, the more they'll realize it's dogshit and turn against it as tacky. The only reason anyone's doing any of it is because billionaires and multinationals are telling them "AI is the future!" and cramming it into everything

Even with all this they still can't get *most* people to give it more than a passing glance. Because people can instinctively recognize that it's dogshit, that it's useless insipid vapid bullshit with no intrinsic value
