Right wing white USian Christians: Anti-racists are just trying to make me feel guilty so they can control me.
Me: .... I want you to hold on to that realisation you've just had about the church you belong to....

a person with a 3d scanner did a full color scan of the 11foot8(+8) bridge and took measurements of the true height of the crash bar and made an animation explaining the overheight warning system

public transit systems never will - and aren't supposed to - make money or break even
fares are a holdover of a culture of "properness" and disproportionately affect disadvantaged people
fareless systems see significant increases in use, which directly translates to less use of cars and healthier cities

In the seventies, before desktop computers, both SF media and contemporary commentary portrayed data centralization as a huge threat. Both the surveillance issue and the labor capital issue. Then in the micro era, that earlier view of the computer as a scary spider was recontextualized as a joke, as an unfounded boomer fear. Who needs to be afraid when there is Windows 95 on every desk?
And now here we are.
Good morning and happy Friday! γγγγγ π¦β¨

A website selling soap: your password is WEAK, you should try again with capital letters and lower case letters and numbers and special characters and no English words
My literal bank: whoa whoa whoa, you can't put special characters in your password! Who do you think you are, the Riddler

The lazy Firefox logo I posted last evening was rushed since it was getting late, so here's a more polished version. Attachment 2 is the transparent version so you can use it as icon
