The Mastodon Media Tab is a thing of beauty. It’s a great way to check out someone’s #photography and/or #art

It’s incredibly satisfying to see everyday people be able to identity the misinformation and disinformation that Russia pushes to the public.

It means it’s no longer working.

Hangman is a great game to teach children that if they don’t learn how to spell they could be put to death.

As the former Vice Chair of the House #HomelandSecurity Committee, I’m HORRIFIED that the House #GOP appointed Marjorie Taylor Greene #MTG on the committee.

A #QAnon conspiracy theorist and a #January6th insurrectionist doesn’t belong on a committee that exists to fight extremism.

Republicans are trying to hold the economy hostage to exact cuts on the social security that you worked you’re entire life for.

I tried hard to be the perfect Mormon boy, until I was 15 and met the guy who would become my first boyfriend. We dated through high school - in the 70s, in Utah, so it was very discreet dating.

#smashthepatriarchy #ReligiousTrauma #growth I spent decades trying to be The Perfect Christian Woman from Proverbs 31. I worried about being too loud, too strong, & too much; tried to bend & shrink myself to fit patriarchal expectations. Eventually, I divorced religion & my husband. I stretched & grew & became fully myself. Now I know that the only person I need to satisfy is ME.

The first man on the moon, George Santos, has been put on the Space & Science Committee and the Small Business Committee by the Republican Party.

Sadly, the latter part of that sentence is true.

well, i guess it's time to actually search for a job

tef.computer/ is my "please hire me, this is what i've done before" website, but the tl;dr is that i'm an experienced backend engineer with some sre, dba, and security bits for flavour

i'm ideally looking for remote work in us timezones, even though i work in the uk, and i'm especially looking for adhd friendly employers

and frankly, i'm really looking for coding/ic work, rather than yaml janitoring or k8s babysitting

@ScottSoCal Yeah, I have done a lot of digging into his past. No one who knew him as a young man is surprised by his actions now. He has always been this guy; he didn't have a chance to prove it on the world stage. You probably know this but in addition to being an actor he was a producer, director, TV executive, and owner of a company with 300 employees. And he has a law degree. The media really should have done better by him than "just a comedian." He wouldn't have had to work so hard to prove himself now.

@Wallyapplebee
I'm waiting for them to respond the way they do when women are sexually assaulted.
How many drinks did he have?
What was he wearing?
Did he say no?
If he hated it, why did he drive Schlapp home?
Couldn't he tell something was off?

@KevinLikesMaps
Every time I see him visiting newly liberated territory, or speaking to the people of Ukraine, or speaking to other national leaders and asking / demanding / begging / whatever it takes to keep his country from being overrun...
I remember that I felt bad when he was elected, because he was just a comedian, and what kind of leader could he really be? Damn, I was so wrong.

Greta's first arrest. It's time for many more of us to stand up and risk arrest for the sake of a livable planet. It will turn the tide.

Cancer does not take away our capacity to love. I may be withered and scarred, but I can attend and listen. My remaining time is valuable because I retain the ability to love. Talking to me and allowing me to be with you, these things keep me alive.
