NSFW, Looking for Kink Toy, Ball Gag
Reaching out to all the weirdos out there: does anyone know where I can get a ball gag with a squeaker in it? It doesn't necessarily need to be a ball, I just want a gag that squeaks when you bite.

"If they have to do it, they should do it in private."
"Yeah!"
"It's not right, doing it in the open where kids can see."
"Yeah! It's not like they have to, it's something they choose to do."
"True. Hate is a lifestyle choice."
"Absol- Hate?"
"Yeah. What did you think we were talking about?"

who knew, the instance that i fediblocked for interacting with the racist eris in 2024 has been called out in 2025 for something else awful
maybe those federating with the racist eris on that instance have something in common with being awful

Maar dan moet je wel durven. Je moet wel durven vragen:
"waarom betaalt Tata 94 keer minder energiebelasting dan een gewone burger en is dat eerlijk?"

En misschien moet ik ook nog maar eens herhalen wat er moet gebeuren om wel tot oplossingen te komen: de AGENDA bepalen.
Asiel, migratie en andere hetze-onderwerpen kan alleen maar extreem-rechts van profiteren.
Terwijl: De kosten van wonen, overleven en hoe het belastingparadijs Nederland voor de extreem rijken daar de oorzaak van is, zijn serieuzere acute onderwerpen.

For a while now, whenever I read or watch news pieces and pundit discussions about “the economy” I always think of this…

The concept of "sex-positivity" is to oppose Puritanism and laws that constrain the expression of CONSENSUAL sex amongst adults.
It is NOT, or should NOT BE, a condemnation of those who choose as consenting adults to be sex adverse, or those whose sexuality (or lack thereof) does not meet any standard other than mutual respect, mutual consent, and mutual pleasure.
It is so much more than just "More and better sex!!"

For #pride month you cannot say “let me get this straight”. Instead say “ok just so we’re queer”.
Having workshop equipment from "Delta-Sport" and other completely reasonable German discounter things
Someone rolls into a programming language IRC channel making false claim after false claim about the language, having very strange beliefs about it, and having immense amounts of trouble with even simple tasks.
And not five minutes later, they complain loudly about how horrible and awful the language is. You can set your clock to it, as one would say in Dutch.
(Bonus correlation: if they post their code, you'll find that they go to absurd lengths to make it resemble the language they are familiar with, even if it doesn't fit into this language at all)

#Verkiezingen of niet na de zomer, dit is juist het goede moment voor politieke partijen om hun eigen #Mastodon-server te beginnen.
Op 20 juni organiseert @degoedezaak in #Utrecht een hele middag met als titel Bondgenoten versus Big Tech. Hier wordt onder andere een miniworkshop over alternatieven voor Big Tech socials gegeven door @BjornW van @publicspaces. Ik ga er vanuit dat Björn enthousiast over Mastodon en andere #ActivityPub-toepassingen gaat praten. Ik hoop zelf ook aanwezig te zijn, en ik ben benieuwd of @koen van ProcoliX ook aanwezig is (?). Ik zou deze dag mijn wat meer gematigde pragmatische pet opzetten. 😉
Dus hierbij nodig ik eigenhandig ook (linksige) politieke partijen uit. Jullie kunnen je inschrijven via https://campagnes.degoedezaak.org/surveys/aanmeldformulier-online-haat.

hot take, politics (2)
And yes, it's left *or* right, not just 'right'.
With leftist views, it just looks different: "it would be great if we could have <leftist thing>, but others will never agree / that's not economically feasible / that will never happen / etc.", because there the fear is not disapproval of morals (like with right-wing views) but criticisms of practicality
hot take, politics
"Moderate" and "centrist" usually just boils down to "either left or right, but being afraid to speak it aloud due to social consequences and/or group dynamics"

“Pride isn't a party to celebrate gay marriage, its a fucking rebellion against queer oppression.”

And, by contrast, imagine investing a mere $0.5B into making linters and lexers and code highlighting and meaningful symbol discovery
... *without* LLMs
because that is the true relevant baseline here. If the AI folks let themselves spend literal billions on these flaky-as-hell tools
Imagine what those of us who *plan* could do
