For all you kids, a fax is like an email but a machine screams it through a landline telephone to a printer.
👴🏻 Everything is terrible!
👩🏿Yes. We're all being attacked by racists.
👴🏻I don't know how to stop this!
👩🏿Again, oppose the racists and the racism.
👴🏻I don't think that's right? Maybe we should march?
👩🏿 Against racism?
👴🏻What? No! I mean, we need strong borders, and DEI has gone too far...
👩🏿*Sigh*
👴🏻Let's march for my 401k first, and then march for my job next, and then let's reassess and see if we still need any more marches.
👩🏿I... kinda feel like you'll stop marching again once your 401k is back and your job is secure.
👴🏻Rude! You're not being very inspirational! You're making me feel sad!
Regular reminder that effective, cheap, mass sterilization technology for just about every known and unknown airborne pathogen exists — we just choose not to deploy it.
HEPA-grade air filters are cheap, easy to install, effective, and severely underused. Unprecedented flu outbreak? SARS pandemic? N5H1? It can scrub the air of all of the above quickly, efficiently, and economically.
Disabled people have been warning for years that the pandemic response (or lack thereof) was going to lead to fascism.
We begged you to wear a mask. To fight for clean air. To refuse to toss “the vulnerable” aside just because you wanted to go “back to normal”.
We are one of the first groups targeted by fascist regimes. We fight for survival every single day under a capitalist system that assigns value based solely on economic contribution.
Include us in resistance efforts. We can help. We are survivors.

I see the same kind of criticism aimed at Asahi Linux and Chrultrabook, "Why bother supporting Linux on this hardware, just stop buying bad laptops"
Not supporting Linux on Apple Silicon or Chromebooks, won't at all slow down the sales of these devices, but what it does do is give these devices the ability to have a second life once they've gone EOL saving at least some of them from going straight into e-waste
"Before 1914, the earth had belonged to all. People went where they wished and stayed as long as they pleased. There were no permits, no visas, and it always gives me pleasure to astonish the young by telling them that before 1914, I travelled from Europe to India and America without a passport and without ever having seen one."
-Stefan Zweig
Borders as we know them are a recent concoction.
The passport system as we know it dates to the First World War. ICE was founded in 2003 as part of the so-called "War on Terror," a disaster for freedom in every way.
These institutions are neither timeless nor beneficial nor inevitable.
