I mean, I guess one funny one might be coming into class and teaching the wrong thing, e.g. teaching freshmen senior-level stuff and vice versa. That might be amusing, if only to see how long it takes someone to go "What the fuck is this shit?" But, Iean, you'd still have to be careful with that.
When you're talking about Linux, it's okay to say that it's "open source".
It's okay to say that it's "free software".
It's okay to call it "GNU/Linux", "Linux", or to mess up its name.
It's okay to refer to it as "the one with the friendly penguin".
Part of RMS' legacy has been an incessant obsession with terminology and pedantry, overshadowing far more important shared objectives which are fundamentally emancipatory in nature.

You know, honestly, April fools peaked my third grade year when my classmates and I hatched a plan to prank a classmate by pretending to prank each other just to get him scared of being pranked, but not actually pranking him. This whole holiday should have just been called off after that. It wasn't going to get any better than that.
sigh. it's stallman comments again
microsoft is not invading free software
microsoft is probably fucking on the floor laughing because you assholes literally can't stop licking stallman boot and it's legitimately killing free software as we speak
**you're not an ally simply for using the name and pronouns you call our "preferred" ones, that's just the bare minimum, but you are definitely a transphobe for using a name that isn't ours to call us**
you're not an ally for just not going in an enraged panic that your friend came out as trans.
you'll be an ally when you stand up for them when they're being kicked out of their home, fired from their job, denied healthcare. when you work to make it so those things can't happen.

Trans Day of Visibility is in two days.
I don’t want to hear about how you as a cis person relate to trans visibility. I want to hear what you’re concretely doing to stop what is quite literally genocide. https://twitter.com/aclu/status/1376649057775587332
