Like, here's the circuit board and the case. It could totally take a USB outlet, but didn't. I wonder why? Cost, perhaps? I mean, it was a cheap phone. But this seems a little much. I don't know. But, I'll see if I can't fix it up later
So, the other day, I pulled apart a little microUSB charger that came with a cheap flip phone, hoping I could turn it into a cheap 5v supply. It turns out that it's actually just a generic USB charger that someone soldered a microUSB cable onto. Like, the case is even designed to accommodate a USB socket. So, assuming I haven't fried it trying to solder alligator clips on, I think I may try to turn it into a USB charger later. I did notice those are in short supply around here the other day...
how to be queer
@trashcat@www.librepunk.club Ah, that's how you do it. And here I was trying to figure out all this "introspection" bullshit. I'm glad it's much easier than I originally thought

subtoot, nsfw ment
There is nothing sacred in this world anymore, is there?
subtoot, nsfw ment
Because *of course* people would make yiff of SCP-1471-A. Why the fuck wouldn't they?!
mh (+), kink ment, self-harm ment.
Self-care is allowing your dommy side to gently dom your subby side while checking up on yourself.
"Are you having thoughts of self-harm?: Not really
Have you self-harmed in the past day?: Nope!
* Good girl. I'm proud of you.
* You're too beautiful to keep using yourself as a punching bag.
* Keep it up. You're doing great."
"Somebody is going get away with killing a cop because of this law."
@AndyTehNerd God, I hope so. I eagerly await the day someone is found not guilty in the murder of a cop because of this law. It will be a glorious day. A beautiful day. A day to remember fondly. A day—

An actual protest at YouTube Headquarters would have been more meaningful. At least that might have made the news.
As is there's no coordination here. No organizing. There's no site for information, no nothing beyond "don't go on Youtube these days". It's just impromptu.

A picket line is a thing you physically have to cross. A picket is something that people put up, and plan. There are signs, there's information.
This is a haphazard mess against a monopoly, and when it fails people are going to just go "aww shucks".

And I'm seeing a lot of people say that "you're a scab if you watch YouTube", but YouTube has become a ubiquitous part of our lives at this point, especially if we're clicking on links on Twitter, and this protest sprang up practically overnight with no warning.

#YouTubeIsOverParty, if the tag even is related to the boycott, is poorly thought out and poorly planned. It's trending now a 23.7K tweets.
It should have been trending a month ago.
I found out because the tail end of a video basically said "don't go on YouTube yesterday".
Subtoot, trans slur
If you're an artist, please don't tag things that feature or might feature trans folk with terms like "cuntboy". Those sorts of terms are not how you refer to trans people, and if you're, say, doing *pride avatar YCHs*, all it really tells me is you probably don't *actually* care about trans folk and just want a quick paycheck.

This is just an attempt by Twitter to execute on EEE: Embrace the technology, Extend it, then Extinguish it. And he wants to do this because he wants to stop the haemorrhaging of users from Twitter to Fediverse instances. His plan is pretty transparent -- give users the *ILLUSION* of supporting multiple, federated instances. You can bet, though, the money and control will all flow towards him.
Don't give Jack the time of day. He doesn't deserve the benefit of your genius.

The whole Twitter funding decentralized social media thing is a ruse. Y'all are having the wool pulled over your eyes.
Jack is realizing a consistent pattern of people abandoning the dumpster fire that is Twitter for the Fediverse. He *KNOWS* what Mastodon is. He *KNOWS* what ActivityPub is. You can get your *ASS* he's been following us for some time.
Alright, I'm done taking on hot topics. I'll go back to whatever the normal thing I do is.
Wait, what do you mean hot topics are part of the normal things I do?!
that youtube thing
Fucking, get your shit together, organize something, have some actual fucking demands that youtube can't easily evade, then fucking follow through until your demands are met. There are useful things to come out of this, but all of it is realizing you can actually do all the stuff I just mentioned. You're figuring out you can organize. Now, fucking do it *effectively*.
that youtube thing
Is youtube shit? FUCK YES. Are there lots of things that need to change? FUCK YES. Is this one of those things that needs to change? Probably. Should it be the top priority and the sole reason we try to do anything against youtube. NO.
