health-, insurance
So apparently my kidney disease means that I'm straight-up unable to get disability insurance as a freelancer, and so I'm basically fucked if I ever cannot work anymore.
Fucking neolibs

so apparently universeodon.com is doing FULL INDEXING on every post they receive, without consent. It sounds like maybe even non-public posts??
"we didn't get people yelling at us, so it must be okay! but now people are? what the fuck?"

I don't usually make fediblock posts, but uh
yeah if you don't want to be indexed without consent...
#fediblock universeodon.com for fulltext indexing incoming posts.

medication, shitpost
In addition to funny pills, nifty pills, angry pills, baking soda, and styrofoam, I now also have shitty powder
Why yes, I *do* assign punny names to my medication so that I don't forget which ones to take when

Ah, my favorite time of year: #Eurovision, when every single person on my timeline are all attempting to describe the same event, but have clearly each taken a different bespoke hallucinogen.

It's just so strange to me how many people are not receptive to being told
"Hey maybe we shouldn't have all of our computers based on proprietary operating systems and APIs controlled by a single corporation"
"Hey maybe we shouldn't have web traffic directed and organized through search by a single corporation"
"Hey maybe the way that we talk to each other online shouldn't be owned and controlled through algorithms and advertising by a single corporation"

What fool uses the term "time traveller" when they could have used
"zeitguest"
Has anyone else noticed Minecraft mods inexplicably vanishing from Curseforge? Someone is reporting three mods from two authors that have vanished in recent months, but the last-online date for the authors is years ago.

Anyone else with ADHD buys in bulk even though the item is just for you?
I am down to the last bits of my last tube of lip balm and YES I will be restocking with 7-10 new ones
The thought of buying shit when I need it is fuckin exhausting because it’s gonna take, at least, 3-5 days before I even get the focus AND energy to buy more 🤦🏾♀️

welcome to "the entire fedi is talking about a thing I don't care about at all" night
re: twitter, fascist commentary, cops
(These are translated to be clear, the original thread is in Dutch)
twitter, fascist commentary, cops
A selection of comments to a video showing a cop being grossly negligent and almost pushing an activist under a train:
"It's the climate terrorist's own fault"
"We should invert the right to protest; forbidden unless you have permission"
"Shame they didn't get hit"
"Actually, the cop saved the protester"
Jesus, the replies on Twitter have really gotten *so much* worse and more outright fascist since I last looked there...

berlusconi
"The Berlusconi family does not control the company directly. Instead, its shares are owned by 38 separate companies, all named 'Holding Italiana' followed by a number (1-38), most of which are in turn controlled by Berlusconi."
wow, that's obvious

If anything, I'd say queer context is more aligned with what humans actually are rather than a reductive binary because that context acknowledges how complex human sexuality is and tries to create space for people to find what fits them from the standpoint of nuance.
It's silly to reduce ourselves to a handful of labels that are only descriptors of social markers anyway.
