Book recommendation question: I'm looking for queer space opera stories that are an easy read. The general vibe of "The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet" is pretty close to what I like! Anyone have other suggestions?

was fetching my bike at a somewhat inconveniently placed bike parking next to a recently renovated building. there was another guy also fetching his bike (late at night, im a little drunk) so i remark to him "weird place to put a bike parking huh" and he responds "i designed this bike parking"

he was the architect for the renovations.

I'm actually a decelerationist. i think things should stop getting worse

Question: does anyone have suggestions for games with a similar vibe to Stardew Valley?

Keti Koti, wat letterlijk ‘ketenen gebroken’ betekent, vindt plaats op 1 juli en verwijst naar 1 juli 1863, de dag waarop #Nederland de #slavernij heeft afgeschaft in de koloniën. Toch moesten de tot slaaf gemaakten nog tien jaar doorwerken en werden de slavenhouders gecompenseerd door de overheid.

Hoewel deze dag op steeds meer plekken en steeds groter wordt ‘gevierd' is het nog altijd geen nationale #feestdag. Ondanks vele initiatieven zeggen tegenstanders van dit idee ofwel bang te zijn voor te veel verschillende dagen van het vieren van vrijheid of de afbraak van de 4 en 5 mei viering. Wij denken dat al deze deze drogredenen terug te voeren zijn op witte onschuld.

Can't help but wonder whether the pro-Facebook admins realize that they're gonna be un(der)paid sysadmins for Facebook if they end up federating

silicon valley and the tech industry has way too much money floating around. like life changing amounts of money to people on here can just be a rounding error to half these people's personal finances

twitter turned on authorized fetch? nice, glad to hear they're taking safety seriously *finger to earpiece* oh

The Verge goes deep on who killed Google Reader, ten years after its demise. I’ve always been furious about this, and somehow, reading this made me even angrier. theverge.com/23778253/google-r

in other news, Twitter hat vom WWW deförderiert

people need to learn how to pirate again

I can tell that Matrix got more popular because nowadays I see more Matrix encryption memes than OMEMO memes.

name change things 

It's annoying how many things you sign up for where they don't ask for legal documents at sign up, but then when you want to change your name, suddenly they need ID.

Feels deliberate and I hate it.

lol one of the founders of neopets joined the /r/neopets discord server to shill his new crypto thing and when nobody gave a shit he went "i fucking hate neopets" "wish id never made it because of this chat" and posted a picture of him flipping everyone off

"But small creators deserve a viable advertising business model" is not the moral statement you think it is.

If you care about small creators being able to viably do things, you will do the correct thing, which is work to implement UBI.

Or overthrow capitalism.

But we can start with UBI.
