Cringe culture is in itself, cringe. Go be weird and yeah maybe even get rejected. That’s normal. It’s how you find people who like you for who you really are

I was thinking earlier about how fucked up the concept of “class mobility” is. Like the promise of capitalism is that if you work hard enough you can become one of the exploiters instead of one of the exploited. That’s real crabs in a bucket stuff right there.

@ppaluchowski64 make sure you report any issues you experience in GitHub. We release updates every month!

@Dio9sys I don’t know the status of packaging on other distros, sorry!

@firebreathingduck we have experimental ARM builds at https://builds.elementary.io for sponsors. Hoping to publish a stable ARM build for everyone before the end of the year!

I happen to own a little open source software company that is expressly anti-fascist, has a “No AI” policy, and has recently been called “aggressively queer” in case you’re interested in supporting tech companies like that:

You can’t just say “I’m an ally” like it’s a set of magic words that absolves you of actually doing ally behavior.

We’re getting to the point where as a tech company all you have to do is not be fascist or actively sabotage your own product with AI bullshit. You don’t even have to be good, you just have to not actively be bad

This is probably the fucking stupidest statement I’ve ever seen. You can’t build a brand on environmentalism and right-to-repair and then suddenly say you want to be “apolitical”. Your entire customer base was built on politics.

Whelp we have a response from @frameworkcomputer and it’s extremely disappointing. Don’t buy Framework. They happily fund alt right bigoted groups and have no intention to change that. https://kolektiva.social/@Anarcat/115341841606988410

They can call me a lot of names but they can’t call me a fucking sellout

Every morning I wake up and ask myself one question: how can I decrease shareholder value?

And I don’t wanna hear some shit about nobody would do the gross jobs. I’ve seen the videos of the lady that volunteers to clean up for hoarders and the guy that does the overgrown lawns. I feel like that is an overblown concern. We can figure it out

“Communism is when you force everyone to have the same thing”

No communism is when community. It’s literally in the name

I just hit 500 followers on Instagram, but I’m just short of 300 on Pixelfed. Are you really gonna let Meta win?

It’s wild to me that I’m a radical because I want to live in a world where everything is free. And I mean not just like food and housing and healthcare but everything. And yes I will absolutely work for free in a world where I can just go to the store and get whatever I need and walk out with it. Money is fucking dumb. The economy is fake. I can’t understand why everyone doesn’t want this

Saw a post about Turning Point USA is gonna host an alternative Christian half time show. And someone responded, “but Benito is Catholic?” And the way some of y’all don’t understand that these people don’t consider Catholics to be real Christians. Literally grew up being taught Catholicism is a false religion. You’re way underestimating the fanaticism of American Christianity

The idea that we *ought to* be “neutral” or “apolitical” and this is somehow a moral good only helps oppressors

@nyx_lyb3ra I don’t think I really agree with the consent argument here. By being in public you explicitly consent to being exposed to other people existing in public, even if it makes you uncomfortable. People have a right to protest for example or to be openly gay (ideally) or practice their religion whether or not you personally consent to seeing it.

@dalias @alice

@alice @dalias I know this is probably frustrating and maybe feels contrarian but some people do post porn on main with no cw and yeah choosing to be part of their audience means understanding that they do that. I follow people right now that sometimes post content that is sexually explicit and makes me uncomfortable. I can choose to unfollow or block or filter. I don’t think I have a right to demand they curate their posts for me.
