Fuck Work

But the government does its best work when its shut down.

Bidens state department openly enables and encourages genocide and then they feel slighted by his sub 40% approval (blaming the people for your poll numbers is really not helping the situation for anybody that needs to hear this). I don’t know what is so hard for them to understand. Nobody is happy with the course of action. A great way to reverse these poll numbers would be to stop providing Israel with material support for genocide and to provide Palestinians material support for simply existing, but Biden has made his bed with a base of liberals that is a rapidly shrinking block and without them he has literally no support what-so-ever. The message that these tone def liberals will inevitably not take from all this is that the democratic party needs to change dramatically if they ever want to win a national election again. Honestly this is the message they needed to get in 2016 and failed to pick up on when they went all in on Hillary. They took winning in 2020 with Biden as a mandate from the masses, which they misread incredibly (He won because we all had enough of Trumps shit and promptly learned that hey, actually Bidens shit is worse somehow) and they are now running on the mandate nobody ever gave them. Trump is going to trounce any Democrat they could run in 2024, because the one thing the Democrats don’t get is that the demographics have changed. Liberal boomers are not a viable course to victory and Black and Latino voters are much more conservative then they want to believe and are finding the modern democratic party just as racist as the modern republican party, so why not vote their religious values. The math is not good for a democratic base which makes a plurality of about 37% of likely voters. If the Democrats want to fill in that gap they need to do things to pull in more young voters, who don’t want genocide in Gaza. Denying it is happening is the most tone def way to appeal to a generation of voters who actually know what gaslighting is.

Fuck Israel and anybody that supports them. No Apartheid state has any right to exist.

If the things you want to say are transphonic you’re an asshole. Everybody that isn’t just trying to be a dick doesn’t haven’t walk on eggshells when they talk. But if what you are trying to say transphonic shit I don’t feel bad that you have to walk on eggshells, nobody has to listen to bigoted shit, just because you want to say it and I support anything anybody wants to do to make that stop. 🤷

Well unfortunately he used his final special to spew transphonic trash. Basically any time he wandered his way into politics it was never good, but he had some amazing jokes when he didn’t.

The problem with you techbros is you can’t imagine anything at smaller scales. But what you just said… Jabber is here for 25 years. That means it is good enough for tons of people. Not everybody needs a shiney new toy and if free software doesn’t scale, then who cares. It can and will still work for those of us willing to share the burden and for those that can’t, each one of me can accommodate at least a few such users and those that just won’t… Fuck em. We don’t have to capture every use case to be of value. I use jabber. I have plans to self host it. It works and has done so for 25 years. Furthermore AIM captured everything a chat needs to do, why do we keep reinventing this wheel when there are much more interesting problems that need to be solved.

If they open sourced all the server code, we could be helping them to operate it potentially, but they want to control the infrastructure, so I guess we’ll all be using xmpp soon.

Need to replace them with the SRA stat.

I love this idea. Will definitely look into installing on my desktop. I’m working on a searxng instance that filters out all the toxic sources that think they own the internet also. Its also very much a work in progress, but yeah, these putzes get too much attention on the internet and anything we can do for our own peace of mind to delete them from pur lives is absolutely worth doing. I put a lot of filters on mastodon to the same end and it has made my social media experience so much more enjoyable.
