Hey website boy? Can I make a humble suggestion for upstream? I think it really suits the new brand push for better marketing data for our new journalist friends.

Nieuwe blog … 📣
*Mastodon is geen revalidatiecentrum voor white innocence*
https://blog.joenepraat.nl/mastodon-is-geen-revalidatiecentrum-voor-white-innocence
"Wat een eer! In het zoveelste artikel over #Mastodon staat mijn #mastofittie (hierbij als nieuw woord gelanceerd) met ene Caroline (what's in a name). Zelfs Todon.nl wordt in het zonnetje gezet! 🎉 Helaas word ik wel gemisgendered (ondertussen op mijn verzoek online gecorrigeerd). 🙄
De context was dat op 19 november jl. de bus van #KOZP (waar ik in zat) net daarvoor was belaagd door (inderdaad) fascistische terrorboeren in de buurt van #Staphorst. Tijdens de terugreis naar de beschaafde wereld maakte ik in een sarcastische toot/bericht met een (uiteraard) fake motie om dat zwaar gereformeerde dorp om te toveren tot een Natura 2000-gebied. Een manier van mij om deze afschuwelijke ervaring te verwerken. Dit werd door vele mensen zo begrepen en gewaardeerd, dus ging die trending (ja dat hebben ze ook op Mastodon) en kwam het op het beeldscherm van deze Caroline terecht. Die kwam hier op Mastodon voor haar geprivilegieerde rust 🤦🏻 en dacht een activist die nog vol met adrenaline zat de mond te kunnen snoeren (tone policing). …"

Edit: Ik had door alle euforie het misgenderen over het hoofd gezien. 😢

TACTICAL S-HOOK!
TACTICAL NYLON WATER BOTTLE HOLDER!
TACTICAL LANYARD!
TACTICAL PEN!
TACTICAL!!!!!111!!

The link below from @schratze is giving me PTSD flashbacks from when I first started working in games. One of my duties was getting the cell phone games I was working on translated into other languages.
Trying to fit a 20 character German word onto a menu item on a 128x128 cell phone screen with the localization guy telling me repeatedly that there's no shorter way of writing the word was a very special kind of hell.

fediblock grumping, long
*everyone sits down for story time* Come children, imagine with me a group of people who are being made to have an extra rough go at things, and against whom all forms of abuse are normalized, defended, and exacerbated both by institutions and individuals, simply because they survived unimaginable brutality in any condition at all when it was hoped they wouldn't
Imagine they make a tool to protect themselves from the bigoted nonsense that other people routinely dish out whether those other people see it as bad or not
Now imagine that people from groups who benefited from the abuse of their predecessors and continue to benefit from continued abuse of them try to intentionally interfere with that tool as a *joke*
I cordially invite everyone who's intentionally interfering with the fediblock tag to eat shit. Fucking eat shit. This has been an extremely polite under-reaction 😘

Silicon Valley is a direct pipeline to the surveillance state. Remember that Ring Cameras went from being a super-neat Amazon product to a surveillance network that can be accessed by police in real time.
Everything that can be used against us, will be used against us unless we fight and get privacy protections in place from the get-go.

@researchfairy seriously the jokingly doing the exact thing the original user was complaining about was not that funny the first time anyone did it, and it has not been funny the next seven billion times.

@joepie91 this instance is not covering it's running costs http://activism.openworlds.info/ you can donate to the #OMN here https://opencollective.com/open-media-network
If you are running a (non-commercial) fedi instance, and you're having trouble paying the server bills, reply with a fundraising post and I'll boost it (and chip in myself as well)!
If there really are instances that are having trouble staying afloat, then let's fix that together :)

@bikeshed I believe ever since most of the population started to think of COVID as a virus deadly only for disabled people in early 2022, due to state propaganda but also due to experiencing or witnessing mild enough infections from the original Omicron, the latent ableism throughout society permitted a lot of people including many anarchists to give up on COVID.
I think the lack of a militant anti-eugenics movement is a big reason why shit is bad.

Shout out to everyone else who was "just interested in being supportive of queer people", who "didn't really have a reason" but started researching neurodiversity to "understand others better", or who "just really wished people were kinder to trauma survivors" without being sure why...
For everyone who has had the moment when you realize that the unheard, marginalized voice you've been trying to amplify for so long is actually your own.
Love y'all. In case nobody else has said it yet, welcome home.

HAM radio, 🧵
Alright, so we need to talk about HAM radio.
So I'm actually a general licensed HAM, I cannot stress how wonderful and delightful of a hobby and learning experience it has been.
But, we have a serious, serious, problem with the demographics, and it's killing the art.
So let's talk about it...

Developers, PLEASE, for the love of all that is holy, don't disable pasting into password fields.
We all want to use more secure passwords, but if for some reason our password manager doesn't work with your site or app, having to 10-finger a long password is annoying.
