Ahh, okay thanks for filling me in

Thats super interesting context, thanks for expanding on what they said!

What does make big rocks into little rocks mean?

Knockoff toys specifically is such a fun premise for a wiki

Is it a known thing that they were dishonest about speaking to a lawyer with that situation?

I’ve been meaning to change instances and find a new home, if it’s known that they lied or mislead their users thats something I’d love to know more about

I mean, I’m not a big fan of the carsal justice system, I don’t think sending this 80 year old woman to die in prison will somehow bring back the dead, but not taking away her license is kinda unreal

A no contest rather than guilty pleas and moving assets feel like they may be things she was advised to do by her lawyer but do feel additionally gross.

The culmination of it all definitely does not feel like justice. Though people in the comments here calling for her to die in prison probably ought to do some self reflection on how much they’ve bought into the notion that harming those who have done wrong somehow makes society or victims better off. Our criminal justice system sucks ass, institutional retribution has never been “justice” either.

What a fucking depressing story and miscarriage of justice.

While it is good to have empathy and understanding for less technical folks, OP may be in a better position to know what is realistic for their family and level of support they can provide

While that’s true I don’t think Bernie is trying to say every district, he’s disagreeing with the broader notion from entrenched Democrats that these are outliers that can’t be replicated and that the Democratic party needs to stay moderate (neoliberal) to win. The article lists a couple more races where we could see this pattern of more progressive candidates winning continue

Other progressive victories victories could be on the horizon in Maine, where Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner has had a double-digit lead over Gov. Janet Mills in polls ahead of the June primary and raised three times as much as Mills and Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) combined in small donations in the final quarter of 2025; and North Carolina, where Durham County Commissioner Nida Allam is challenging Rep. Valerie Foushee for a second time after losing a close race in 2022.

(Nida Allam is up for vote where I am I believe. While Foushee hasn’t been a bad representative I’m excited to do more research on Allam and think I may be voting for her :)

Interesting little piece of history, thanks for sharing

This is cool as fuck, thanks for sharing! I neither code nor am learning mandarin, but I hope you get some more folks involved who can contribute too :)

It might require posting places other than the fediverse though, I’m not sure this is a wide enough net to find folks who can get involved

Anyone know if there are any good places online to share foss projects you’re hoping to build with more people?

they ask their daughters to pretend to pray so that the men in the family, especially the husband or the brothers of that child, won’t know that she is of fertile age now. Because as soon as they know that the girl has started menstruating, they’re going to pull her out of the school, if she goes there, and they’re going to marry her off to a man double or thrice her age. And that is something we have seen so often. It just breaks my heart. Mothers are usually very helpless in these situations. The link to child marriage contributes to the secrecy around periods and makes it an extremely isolating experience.

As a guy I hadn’t really made that connection to how menstruation would become so stigmatized. Thats gutwrenching…

Yeah, I have a circadian rhythm disorder and my first thought was “oh, somrthing ivcaould actually do!”. But then again I also have ADHD and no internal sense of time so it’d be hard to show up at the right time 😅

Glad you got it working!

If you’re not already connected to local organizing efforts where you are, start looking for ways to change that. Look up if there are any mutual aid hubs around you, o to protests, ask around, try to get involved with food not bombs and see if you can get linked in with more efforts

Any efforts to protect our futures and our neighbors will happen through local organizing where YOU are. If you want a democracy, this chapter of history seems to demand that we work for it; start getting connected.

If you’re knowledgable about CSS you could use the Stylish extension to customize websites, but given frutiger aero’s aesthetic, you’d probably have to add a bunch of images for ui elements, so I wouldn’t neccisarily expect it to be easy

Short of customizing stuff yourself, I think thats a really niche styling to be looking for, for already niche platforms. If you wanna check for other people’s CSS creations you can go to the userstyles.world site, or the older and I think now defunct userstyles.org, and search for mastodon, or any other sites you wanna check out themes for. There may not be many, customizing your websites with CSS stylesheets isn’t exactly a huge hobby, so the most themes are available for sites everyone uses (YouTube, Wikipedia, google, etc.). Any themes there you find could be used with the stylish extension, though it may require some extra work from the older site

As someone else who enjoys the y2k retro aesthetic, I hope you find something you enjoy :)

Love seeing this acknowledged. So many of the societal harms we trace back to men and then we fail to engage with why men end up that way.

We do men and boys an enormous disservice by essentially raising them to be emotionally stunted and interpersonally dysfunctional. And then they grow up and they subject more boys to the abuse that was normalized to them- because hurt people inflict more hurt on others.

But if you say the word “patriarchy”, men who are deeply hurting under said patriarchy will disengage and treat the idea as a threat to be defeated because they, like everyone else, are a product of their socialization, and their socialization teaches them that of they fail to measure up to the rubric of masculinity, they are a failure, and that masculinity is the ideal. Questioning that is a non-option.

If you wanna address those societal harms you have to start by raising generations of healthier boys and men, and protecting them from the abuse that is the normal response when those men and boys try to learn how to engage with their emotions.

Shit makes me sad. And instead of engaging with men’s issues in addition to women’s, our government decides we should just stop engaging with women’s issues, because this admin is patriarchy incarnate. No questioning the status quo.

Holy SHIT Godot is moving fast, the page is like a mile long!?

Some context on why this is uplifting might be helpful :)

Lol

Christ is that relevant to leftwing spaces, and to lemmy

Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate having seen this
