@troyhunt Two questions I don't see answers for:

Do you have a budget in mind?

Do you have space or noise concerns?

@mttaggart But they might be AIs,
And what are we gonna do unless they are?

@mattblaze Well, Eisenhower was pretty active in Antifa.

Didn't hit the No Kings protest today, but protested by building community at a local library repair clinic. Got to help repair a sewing machine from the 80s and a lamp, while connecting with neighbors from across the city.

Just want to toot my own horn for a moment.

I remembered to check the directions for microwaving some frozen vegetables before throwing out the box.

@sophamir Do you have any idea how twisted and shattered my mother's back is?!

It's all from being a capitalist wage-slave, not from any of the cracks I studiously avoided!

"We'll get back to that after a word from this video's sponsor: Ground News. Because you should pay to consume christofascist propaganda. Don't you feel bad about how hard you're making it for the same seven blond white folks to lie to you about everything? Sign up with my sponsor code today!"

Hey. Sometimes we do STUFF with WEIRD COMPUTERS.

Accuracy matters, dampit.

If you need a good way to start your Friday, I recommend realizing the entirety of modern society is held together by metaphorical spit & bailing wire and the transition to large language models for critical thinking is absolutely going to produce an even dumber Enron-style collapse in the next five years.

Went to a new doctor (specialist referral) this morning and he was straight-up no-masking what felt like autism. It was weird just because I'm so used to doing mild masking myself, and threw me for a loop.

Once I got it it was great. But I was prepared for one thing and got another, damnit.

Do you have a GitHub account?

One of the conversations at #FediForum revolved around accessibility for non-techies in the Open Social Web. One of the barriers raised was the reliance on spaces built for developers, such as GitHub. So, we're wondering, how many people on the Fediverse have a GitHub account?

Please boost so more people can interact!

@jackgangi Why limit it to NYC?

I want the next gubernatorial debate in like fuckin' Montana to have to fly out someone from goddamned Queens to just throw elbows and complain about how shitty the pizza is.

@randahl Hey, this is Pete Hegseth we're talking about here.

He could be an ignorant drunk fool.

@wendynather @tayfonay @StefanThinks Especially the cats.

@cR0w "No, I just finished the dishes and now I'm waving good morning to the Bull of Fate. I'm not trying to taunt it."

@Kingu I’ve heard people seriously describe YouTube as a social network. I don’t entirely agree, but I’d say it’s neck and neck between Google and Meta’s dumping grounds.

It's a dark time right now, and a lot of people are struggling with keeping a light of Hope.

I think that's okay. Sometimes Hope can take the back seat, and let Spite take the wheel.

Every day you're alive and refusing to conform to fashy little rituals pisses the petty christofascists off. Sometimes losing slowly is enough to win.

"Fuck you, make me" applies to giving up, too.
