When I was a kid, the KKK planned a march through our downtown. I was at my grandparents’ house for the summer. The phone rang, my grandma called my grandpa to the phone. I sat and listened to his side of the conversation.

“Who? When? Where? Where are we meeting? On my way.”

Being the little boy, I want to go with him, whatever it was he was going to do. Lemme go!

“Not this time, son”, as he brushed past me.

With that, he went to the hall closet, pulled out his shotgun and a box of shells, and sped away in his truck. Time for business.

There was no KKK march through town that night or any other night. People don’t know about it because it didn’t happen. I think about that a lot lately.

Absolutely a true story.

I don't get excited about supporting small businesses that are registered LLCs and hiring waged employees.

I am excited about supporting independent craftspeople and sole proprietorships/partnerships.

I would be even more excited about supporting large, unionized, anarcho-communist industrial firms.

"our flag doesn't belong to fascists"

yes it does. grow up. stop defending the flag and start burning it

The way people spread personal info and faces of resistance fighters and average people, but refuse and act like its morally wrong to do the same to corpos is weird and bad

the downfall of netbooks and the loss of RSS are the two greatest technological disasters in recent memory

my take on access to HRT, including DIY and minors 

It should go without saying but apparently it might not be as obvious as i thought

But I believe that access to HRT is a fundamental right of every consenting individual who wishes to use it, with no "if"s or "but"s

That includes those who do not wish to interact with the medical system for *any reason* and minors when it comes to puberty blockers *and* hormones

Including DIY

This is not an invitation for discussion, if you don't agree with this I can only invite you to kindly unfollow right now

you should build your next project in G. you should check out raccoon. have you tried nub? it fixes a lot of the problems in chunt and it's faster than elyfant. did you see the spatula announcement? it looks like frothy's syntax with toddler's type system. at work we use zabar's on the front end and conspiracy on the backend. trying to get them to switch to herodotus. have you done the xyyz tutorial? have you read the bart book? have you tried lisp?

open source projects are either corpo or gay

Can't wait for next month, it will finally be warm enough to start prepping the garden
