mastodon is dead, meta
would brands bring masto to life? i'd rather stay dead
would celebrities like ann coulter bring it to life? i'd rather stay dead
i'm pretty sure additional users or an expanding fediverse will not bring masto to life in the eyes of those who argue it's dead
if dead means a caring environment of interests and shitposts, then i'd rather stay dead
A quick search brought up two companies doing or planning this right now:
The Swedish startup hub Epicenter (apparently as an option, not mandated): http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2017/04/04/cyborgs-work-swedish-employees-getting-implanted-microchips/
US - Wisconsin's Three Square Market (also non-mandatory): http://kstp.com/news/wisconsin-company-to-implant-microchips-in-employees-three-square-market/4549459/
>>
And ultimately, working people, who need to accept various demeaning work conditions already to get paid and survive, will be unable to resist this new encroachment unless organized, at the workplace level or better yet, across industries and world wide. Resisting one by one gets you fired and hungry. Resisting as a group or as a class gets the goods.
With this talk of companies implanting chips in employees' actual private physical bodies, there's some highly predictable discourse coming.
Liberals of all stripes (but especially libertarians & ancaps) will be shocked at the idea to some degree but defend employees' "right" to "voluntarily" be chipped. They will argue that workers should refuse but that it's their "right" to allow it, too (and of course, the employees' "right" to mandate it.)

Please Retoot.
Hey y'all. I know it's been a few days. I've been busy with some things.
I'm taking commissions right now. In general, I'll draw any request, but for now I'm advertising profile images. I'm asking $25, and I can style it however you'd like.
I posted this on BIrdsite and Crumblr, and Kit suggested I post here. I was nervous about the self promotion, but at this point, after this month, I'll have no money to support myself. If you could please, please Boost this post, I'd appreciate even that.
Instead of new nailpolish today I just repaired the one already on there.#bluenailsunday

Sometimes I'm ashamed for my blatant lack of respect for example sentences, but objectively it's really cute.
yes "Why is BamboozleCat cuddling the snek" is totally what the snek language tutorial used in their example leave me alone https://computerfairi.es/media/St3l2KSJvghhrJSxNp4
Okay so… is #pcode still a thing? :o *might be sliding into a "I'm learning python" phase but isn't sure yet*
