   Well, no.

   It turns out "Gothic" fandom still exists and there's even a Discord server. Someone learned about the book somehow, told their friends, and now some of them want it as a collector item.

   I mean, it is nice to find someone with a shared appreciation of something, but also just imagine, you made a game 25 years ago, and some people still like it enough that they want a book about it in a foreign language.

   @aburka @pixx @vkc Yes & no.

   It is if you accept the user clicking where the computer tells them to as part of the language!

   But for any practical purposes: No it is not.

   Whether this means HTML isn't a programming language... Depends on definitions!
   As far as I'm concerned most of those saying it isn't are doing so to dismiss HTML, & the important skills it represents!

   When people ask me if I feel isolated because of my COVID precautions, I very truthfully tell them no.

   It's not the precautions that are isolating.

   It's the alienation that comes from realizing most people are willing to kill their neighbour for brunch that's isolating.

   And giving up precautions isn't going to change that problem.

   "Leftism" being in big scare quotes because these ppl aren't leftists. And you will have no idea how many of my personal feuds and online disputes, some of which have run years, root ultimately in someone insisting on left jacketing this cracker reactionary nonsense just because these folks pushing crypto-fascist ideology/talking points present faux left. Like is Glenn fucking Greenwald an anticapitalist? Hell no.

   It's a sore point for me. Anti-racist, antifascist, AND anti-capitalist or GTFO.

   @mez Sadly, no.

   It was always going to be a stopgap. All my energy is going into building the Small Web. That’s a real alternative instead of a bandaid.

   The "abusing in plain sight" is the thing that men that do this rely on. They rely on women's fear of "making a big scene" or "distracting from the celebratory moment and killing the vibe" to stay silent/not complain.

   No, it doesn't even matter if they had dated previously. She didn't want him to kiss her at that moment, and on some level he knew that, and did it anyway, removing her ability to say no.

   It's also incredibly selfish. It makes her moment about him.
