toying with the idea of win98 development. what framework/workflow should i follow? i want windows with some bitmap drawing. something similar to what furcadia or the palace have done back in the day. i'm wondering if mattkc's .net 3.5 backport is good enough for it :boost_ok:

Kamala Harris has now raised over FIVE hundred thousand dollars, AND 100 Venture capitalists have thrown their weight behind her. she has more money than she could ever need.

my friend Momodou, @Sbarry8520, is trying to raise $2,500 to rebuild his family's home and farm. so far he's only received just under $500. if you've got money to chuck at Kamala, you can spare a few for him, surely.

Newsflash. 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️

White LGBTQ+ people can be racist. Is that something we need to say?

So many responses here being like, as a trans person, I got such better community on Mastodon from the beginning.

Change that to "As a WHITE trans person."

Take a look at what Black, Arab and other nonwhite trans people have been saying on here, and how you've been treating them.

#mastodonforharris #mastodon4harris Kamala has raised $231 million. she has enough. here's a #mutualaid post you could donate to instead.

my friend is disabled and ineligible for state assistance and needs 2000kr to get herself some medication to help, and to pay her bills.

she won't give out her personal paypal so you'll have to send it to me. tag it #snepaid

@mynameistillian If people saw that no politician cares about who donates and why, they would probably stop. Harris doesn't need Mastodon, she has Biden's money + the companies donating to her. The people here do.

#MastosonForHarris kind of proves that liberals prefer anyone in a suit and tie over the fellow citizens and neighbors who need more help. They'd give money hand over fist for a company who's asking for help before considering feeding a family.
