For saying "Erdoğan has a shady political background", the former co-chair of Turkey's opposition HDP, Figen Yüksekdağ, was sentenced to 18 months in prison for "insulting the President".

Interesting, considering Erdoğan is an insult to himself. Go to jail.
subtleties update! they're all here!!
The other day I was describing Mastodon to some local friends and I said "on other platforms if you're the weak member of the heard the wolves come for you, the same is true on masto, except the wolves come with flowers and chocolates and get well cards, and try to help you feel better using kindness and respect."
That was just something that I only assumed was true, and then today I felt bad and didn't keep it in, and now I know its true.
Ya'll are just the best. I dont deserve you. ❤️
Hey, y'all,
So ICYMI, I was dropped by my employer of six years last month. They say with the new year they're looking to make changes in the company, and I guess those changes don't involve lil ol' me.
I've always been pretty terrible when it comes to asking for help (I just naturally think im bothering folks when i do), but if any of y'all could kick a couple bucks my way to help make rent or get some food, I would be incredibly grateful.

https://imgur.com/gallery/U9Gmkki this is an imgur gallery of 90s game ads. as such, content warnings for suicide "jokes", massive sexism, awful, AWFUL graphic design, 3do game adverts, lots of guns and horrid hypermachismo bullshit, and a lotta gross, tired jokes.
I'm linking this because A) this is basically all the evidence one would need to know the 90s were a hellpit of awfulness, and B) ... honestly that's about all the reason for it. aside from maybe going "oh hey that's a game I remember"
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
