I wonder what would happen if pro-choice demonstrators picketed outside churches with pictures of women who died in childbirth from lack of access to abortion?

There aren’t that many second-generation computer programmers, and certainly not that many as old as me.

So I’m asking you to think of my Mom, the first-generation programmer in my family, who taught me as a kid — and who will be undergoing extremely serious surgery early tomorrow morning.

She believes that good thoughts sent her way really do help, so please help!

"Why do rich people sponsor fascism if it ruins everything tho?"

For the exact same reason they sponsor fossil fuel consumption on a boiling planet; it's profitable for them in the short term and these are deeply fucked up people who quite frankly aren't all that bright, but definitely lack "empathy."

You unfortunately live in a society that A) rewards that behavior and B) has been rigged entirely to cater to this, objectively fucking homicidal morons.

In reality, Mastodon is an entirely different community for me from Twitter. Fascinating, chatty, smart, curious, friendly. One does not fully replace the other. Grateful to be on this site, but I do wish the other weren't so deeply troubled.

Being afraid of made up ML risks, and not being afraid of very real, very present ML risks, is kinda like dogs being terribly afraid of vacuum cleaners and fireworks, while being completely unafraid of mountain lions and rattlesnakes. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Visits to the Local timeline can be very rewarding. They add a bit of controlled randomness into the posts you see, beyond the more familiar inputs from your Follows on your personal Home timeline. Refreshing.

I am on a fairly large instance where the surprise element is dominant. Those on smaller, more focused instances will see more posts that are closer to their own interests. Either wsy, it's fun to visit Local.

Plus, Local is the place to find new arrivals and welcome them!

What I'm pretty sure is a Red-Tailed Hawk perched atop an Eastern Red Cedar in South Dartmouth, MA near sunset this evening. Never caught a look at its front, and the angle of the light made it a little tough to see the tail when it flew off.

Rick Wilson's take on No Labels: A reminder: No Labels is a pro-Trump re-election SuperPAC funded by Republicans.

They’re going to run Manchin as their candidate to draw off dem votes from Biden.

They’re not centrists. They’re not moderates. They’re not independents.
