A+ trolling (by Harvard?)

My governor has ordered schools in #WV to allow religious and philosophical exemptions to the #Vaccine mandate. Obviously this is a bad idea wince vaccines are good and diseases are bad. But I'm left scratching my head about something else entirely.

What the fuck is a philosophical exemption?

School: And why shouldn't little Timmy have to get his Measles shot?

Parent: Because Plato said he shouldn't have to?

School: OK

@Taweret The real monster was the reader.

Grover made it very clear he didn't want the reader to turn the page.

Whatever happened to consent?

The year of #Linux on the desktop will be when a major desktop environment makes "copy as plain text" the default.

@cbarbermd America under Trump:

- Canada? "Our 51st state!"
- Greenland? "We'll get it one way or another!"
- Panama? "We're taking back the canal!"
- El Salvador? "Hey, it's a sovereign nation! What can I do?"

Meanings of the smoke for the upcoming papal conclave:

Black smoke means they're burning oil, which could be a sign of piston ring or valve stem seal wear

White smoke means they're burning coolant and the papal head gasket has blown

Folks seem to only be interested in the melody of life. Live in the harmony instead.

Considering #Trump used a precedent from 1798 already to do some bullshit and has essentially voided the 4th amendment regarding ICE, how long y'all think before he fucks with the third amendment and puts troops on houses?

Today's #WorkFantasy as a mail carrier is doing donuts in a USPS vehicle.

Supervisor: Your scanner shows you did 50 U-Turns in a span of 3 minutes. What the fuck, Johnson?

Johnson: .......... There was a bee in the van?

If you've ever enjoyed the film "The Boondock Saints", you are required now to support #LuigiMangione and attend his trial if possible to assist in his escape.

Sorry, I know many of you had plans but I don't make the rules. See y'all there. #DeathToBillionaires

I PROMISE you that if you give up Spotify, follow a bunch of cool-ass musicians and music writers on here, and actually CLICK ON AND LISTEN TO the links they post, you will discover more great music DAILY than you'll find via Spotify "Discover" horseshit in a year.

Apparently #Bluesky has one centralized service, the "relay", which did not go down, but it has distributed its users across multiple PDSs (and users can roll their own PDS). The idea is that any individual PDS can go down and so long as the relay keeps working all the other users are OK.

But, ALL of the company's PDSs went down. 🤔

We are being told that a DDOS attack targeted ALL of #Bluesky's PDSs and they all went down simultaneously. Suppose this is possible, but it does seem odd.
