one time reddit offered me a job, then their background check found my posts calling trump, andrew cuomo and jk rowling horrible pieces of shit and they rescinded it. what im saying is fuck them and their stupid website

"If you assume that additional majority-minority districts in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, & 1–2 other states would’ve been safe Democratic seats, then today’s #SCOTUS ruling strongly suggests that the Court’s 2022 shadow docket stays wrongly gave Republicans control of the House."

-Steve Vladick

The Shadow SCOTUS continues to serve their Oligarchy instead of the American people.

The 2022 Damage is done & the Roberts SCOTUS continues to influence our Democracy in ways that will affect Americans for generations.

You know who doesn't have to appear in Federal court in Miami on Tuesday?

The e-mail lady.

It looks like #Binance is telling its US customers to withdraw their USD by June 13, 2023, because their banking partners aren't going to service them any more after that.

June 13th also happens to be the hearing date on the SEC's request for an asset freeze.

What they aren't telling their customers is to withdraw their #crypto even though the SEC is requesting that their crypto assets also be frozen.

If you have anything on #BinanceUS you should think really hard about getting it off ASAP

“The best thing to do is to sit on the sidelines and let [LGBTQ rights advocates and Muslims] kill themselves.”

It’s too bad there’s no hell.

Where are you on the political scale? Please boost wildly!* 😃​

(*) Yes I mean Wildly not just widely

The January 1990 "Harlan Ellison's Watching" In 1990 I was 23, hadn't seen "Field of Dreams" and hadn't made this, rather obvious, connection to most of what'd I'd seen or read. All such things fade irrecoverably into the noise.

If you think antisemitism and racism in the USA aren’t linked and working hand-in-hand, you are mistaken. It’s time to unite all forces against the evil of these ideologies.

@noahshachtman Just so we're all on the same page: RFK Jr. has absolutely no idea what he's talking about with regard to vaccines, mental health, or pretty much any other topic that involves medical science.

Excited to get my first Tandy Color Computer (CoCo) 3! These are in high demand & a little hard to find at a reasonable price. They routinely sell for $500 or more. #coco3 #retrocomputing

@budlight@twitter.com @AnheuserBusch@twitter.com @HRC@twitter.com 4. @NBCUniversal@twitter.com says it "celebrates Pride and LGBTQ+ changemakers, organizations, and entertainers all year long"

But @NBCUniversal@twitter.com has donated at least $1,046,000 to anti-LGBTQ politicians since last year

attn: MUD developers

last year, a grad school classmate of mine died at the age of 38. every student and professor who met Geoff Hollis learned that he was a brilliant scholar, a sharp thinker, and a superb university lecturer.

but only a handful of his friends knew that geoff was also one hell of a coder. he spent nights as a grad student building his own MUD engine in C - from scratch, with a built-in custom scripting language - just for the fun of it.

nakedMUD enjoyed several years of regular development and usage from mud designers, before jeff had to shelf it due to his teaching responsibilities.

when he died, his server space was wiped without a backup, and all of his source code went with it. i've got the most recent version of nakedMUD (3.8.1), but i'd like to preserve v1.0 to v3.8 in his memory.

if you happen to have filenames in the format nakedmudv1.0.tar.tgz sitting around on old drives, i'd love to hear from you. i'm building a little source shrine for geoff, so nakedMUD can live on in memory of a kind, gentle soul.

@stux Apple at it again adding features that other platforms had like 10 years ago or so.....

BTW, I don't wish to yuck on your yums if this is a thing that excites you.

I'm just very, very on the side of "until your computer/phone/whatever is getting in the way of what you do, you almost certainly don't need a new one."

I'm very jaded by events/announcements/the like that drum up hype to convince you otherwise.
