   Come to think of it, I very much grew up in isolation; I was homeschooled til 14, parents didn't have friends so we only occasionally had stepdad's family over, and my cousins. Started college at 14 but didn't have any friends til I was 17.

   Had some friends as a kid but we would always be moving around for stepdad to find work so really didn't keep many long term relationships early on.

   So having lots of people around (and within walking distance) I am not so used to.

   Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) -

   "This is a president and a Republican Party that is taking a battle ax to bedrock that American families rely on.

   So this is just a very, very savage time of cruelty where you're going to see millions of Americans suffering because of the things that they're doing to bedrock programs and providing health care and food programs.”

   @wyatt I mean media in the sense of a form new messaging is conveyed over (radio, TV, etc.), not an existing physical object something already fixed is stored on.

   So, your laserdiscs are safe. 😁

   @trwnh @jalcine there are probably ways to do it that don't require 100+ pieces of software to learn your new flag.

   I'd probably change the account name and description to "[Suspended]" and make new properties for the former name and description and so on.

   So software that wants that info can get it, but everyone else sees a clear indication that the account is shut down.

   Alright, so the TTS needs at least 100 samples to train on.

   So, I'm still not QUITE sure if this is even gonna work.

   So, user @samuelhayimbrody at Bluesky pointed out that this EO directly states that race is a biological reality and implies that not believing that is "insane" (link only available to signed in users: https://bsky.app/profile/samuelhayimbrody.bsky.social/post/3llgraj7kas27)

   When I said that ableism is a weapon that can never be wielded on behalf of Black people and is consistently used against us, this is what I was talking about. IQ is just one example, historically and presently we also have things like drapetomania, calling all old Black men "crazy", etc. the list goes on.

   So if you are out here calling people crazy, insane, stupid, moron, idiot, etc or god forbid the fucking R slur like ppl love to do, you are doing the work of the segregationists, Nazis, eugenicists, fascists, and billionaires that run the government. You are following in their footsteps and marching to the beat of their drum. Literally acting on their behalf, whether you intended to or not.

   So I need for us to ask ourselves if we're really opposed to white supremacy or not. If we're really against ableism or not. If we really believe in racial and disability justice or not.

   Because if you really do, what are you willing to give up? Are you willing to interrogate your casual use of language? Are you willing to reconsider your words and actions in light of new information? Are you comfortable grappling with the idea that you have the capacity to harm others? What about if you already have? Are you motivated enough to try to make restitution?

   Because if you're acting like a damn collaborator and you're not okay with reconsidering that, what does that tell me about your character? Answer: everything I need to know.
