Having watched the eightpoint.app situation for a while, rage.love will be defederating in a week because of the admins' decision to bring back Slaanesh despite her deceit about her identity and without any indication that she is no longer a danger to trans women. ( https://eightpoint.app/@Smutty_Tiefling/109506532416662564 , also see attached screenshot) Mods coming right out and saying they don't care about Slaanesh/Laurelai's victims they don't know is extremely alarming to say the least, among other expressions we won't use on the admin account. This is how abuser-enabling cliques form and we want no part in it.

Black/Indigenous users who are looking to leave eightpoint and think rage.love would be a good fit should feel free to DM or email this account for an invitation. #FediBlock

tl;dr the administration is still supporting LB

Batman but he finally gets therapy to deal with his parent's loss and realizes dressing up in a suit to beat up petty criminals is a trauma response and begins to invest billions into healthcare, police abolishment, fair housing, and drug treatment which drastically reduces crime to the point capitalists plot to eliminate him and when the succeed, this prompts the Justice Leauge to go after the industrialists responsible for his death, which give the general populace a chance to seize the means of production and the military is afraid to act because Superman has promised to destroy one military base for every civilian life they take.

That would be a pretty cool story.

https://genders.wtf from @effy is extremely good, please submit more bad forms asap

so now I'm wondering: if you have created and/or run both a Minecraft *and* a mastodon (fediverse) server, which did you find easier to do? (if you haven't done *both* please just choose "Spiderman" to see poll results, and please boost for maximum reach!)

The best thing I've ever done as an IT professional is install adblockers for elderly and non-computer-literate clients. Everyone should use them. It's not even just an aesthetics thing, it's an "ads are responsible for serving tons of malicious scripts that trick people into calling numbers or clicking links that lead to scammy shit" thing.

Fuck ads.

Hey, so you know how there's this thing where certain groups have highly specific ways of knowing and being in-and-with-the-world which might benefit everyone if shared?

Disabled people have that. Other marginalised groups too. When we ask you to *LISTEN* to us, it's not solely to complain about our struggles, suffering or oppression. It's also because if you listen to us, our experience may help *you*. And when we help each other, it increases the chances we all prosper #disability

Reminder that I collect weird, whacky, and bizarre form fields related to gender collection at https://genders.wtf and would welcome people submitting more

Some of you will know that there are character codes which are magic, For example, 8 is backspace, 9 is tab, 13 is enter/return, 27 is escape.

And then there's 127, which is delete. Why?

Because if you're dealing with punched cards, you need to remove errors. And the only code which will work for cancelling out a column is all holes punched, since you can't un-punch a hole

And 127 in binary is `01111111`.

"Sorry boss that form must have gotten lost. I'll send another one."

*"accidentally" bumps freshly-printed form into filing cabinet*

all negotiating with billionaire bootlickers for infrastructure will ever do is get us this lmao

Damn who could have predicted this

Based on my mastodon experience so far

I can understand if new admins don't know that Soapbox is bigotware and they'll be defederated nearly instantly for running it...

but Soapbox is bigotware and you'll be defederated almost instantly for running it
