terminally online shenanigans, terf shit, margaret atwood
anyway if you’re not terminally online and you need some context, the author of The Handmaid’s Tale has publicized an essay contending that trans women are preventing people from using the word “woman” in a take that looks and smells like some “war on christmas” type shit

One of the first things a really problematic user of any web service will do is block its admins if possible, usually after being reminded of rules.
I have no idea why this is allowed in mastodon. You control your own followers, and we can see your posts from the admin tools anyway if we need to. It's not clever; it means you chose your instance poorly and will be yeeted once we notice.
Anyway, don't assume a mod sees the same problem posts you do and has been ignoring them. Report them. :)

i have spent a long time thinking about what the free software movement means to me, and why i care about it. i’ve decided that, for the most part, the free software movement is missing the point.
i’ve decided that i care about ethical software, not free software.
it’s not how free the software is that matters. it’s who uses it, and what they use it for.
most software must have its source available in order to be ethical - but that is not a requirement.

medical device, hacking, recall, diabetes
Medtronic is recalling insulin pump controllers because they allow third parties to change settings to fatal values--murder by hacking. The potential for this has been known for decades. https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-recalls/medtronic-recalls-remote-controllers-used-paradigm-and-508-minimed-insulin-pumps-potential
Text of love poem
I'm still figuring out how to use stuff. 😅
Text of the poem reads:
Have I knelt at the altar of your beauty before?
Have I sucked dew from your skin and slept in your shade?
Petal by petal, my fingers trace the world in your skin
And you are as a cherry blossom tree;
blooming after many winters.
Hi I am a big goof and wrote a love poem.
I like it but also my situation is not one where I should really necessarily be exchanging love poems right now. So, y'all get a secret poem till I'm ready to give it to them.

twitter from a physio about ME/CFS
suggestions from a physiotherapist about reasonable things that physiotherapy *can* actually do for ME/CFS when the topic isn't monopolised by the ascientific Graded Exercise Therapy. the suggestions are practical stuff about establishing patient baseline activity, diagnosing dysautonomic factors and so on (none of it is curative in itself, which is what the BSP clique claims about GET):

We know you're hiring, shut up about it. Everybody's hiring. If you're hiring, it's because you sucked at valuing your employees.
@mithrandir@raru.re @vanillacherry I'd like to posit that it does, but that they don't even realize that needing glasses or a parking lot for a vehicle, for example, is an accommodation for accessibility.
Fuckin ableist 'disability' binary.

I've never been in a poly relationship but I imagine that means multiple people can borrow your hoodies now
