Mój drugi w życiu chleb na zakwasie, i pierwszy robiony wbrew przepisowi, bo musiałam tu i ta zrobić inaczej bo ból głowy domagał się spania. Ale hej, wyszedł :D

In a conversation on reddit today someone asked if other languages have phrases like "rightie tightie, leftie loosie" to remember which way to turn screws/lids/etc. And one person answers that in Spanish, the phrase is:

"La derecha oprime, la izquierda libera."

or:

"The right oppresses, the left liberates."

(Now I kind of want to put this on a t shirt)

#Vermont appears to go in for some rather robust central dividers on the interstate. #geology

If god wanted us to stick with capitalism she wouldn't have given us imagination.

Fuck off with calling all these anti trans and anti gay laws "controversial." They're hate laws. They're fascism. They're evil.

Journalists are going to "both sides" fascism until they are literally executed by the fascists.

If I gave my instance admin $8/month, he'd just squander it on old computers on eBay.

@mekkaokereke In undergrad I tutored math and was wildly popular among women. I learned to ask in the 1st or 2nd session "OK, who was it who made you believe you were bad at math?"

Every. Single. Student could, and did name names.

I see Jack, one of the Twitter founders, is working on a new Twitter but "federated" ...

Not #ActivityPub though but their own AT protocol atproto.com/

The worst thing that ever happened in software engineering was when Kirk asked Scotty how long something would take and Scotty said thirty minutes and Kirk said you’ve got five and Scotty got it done in five and impressionable children watched this and grew up to become managers.

😢 Sad story: For a long time pre-2022 I'd have happily paid #twitter $8 a month for a well-moderated, ad-free, time-ordered timeline. They never gave me that choice

😊 Happy ending: That's exactly what the #fediverse has enabled for me. I make $8 donations to my instance host to help keep it sustainable

@tanepiper "Nice online brand presence you got there. Would be a real shame if something were to happen to it"

"Why won't you pay the $8?"

Five months ago, before she died, my 91-year-old great-grandmother described to me how, while her mother was taken to the gas chambers by the Nazis, she asked her mother, "Where are you going?" and "When are you coming back?" She never saw her mother again. I was literally shaking while I was listening.

Now, when I checked Twitter, I bumped into two accounts, one "verified," and the other one lost their "verification" yesterday. I'll just leave it right here...

I guess I’ve wondered for a while now how we will know the moment when fascism has unequivocally arrived either in the US or UK.

There were Jews who recognised that same moment in 1930’s Germany and made escape plans.

I’ve just witnessed a number of GoFundMe pages on here for trans people to escape from the states they had long called home.

That moment is no longer a theoretical possibility, it’s sadly arrived. We can’t just pretend it’s not happening. We need global action.

Oh, hello little Junco!

I never expected to find such a variety of wildlife under our camper with the camera: skunk, possum, porcupine, couple cats, many mice, bunch of birds, and an ermine.

Code runs on computers, literature runs on society. If code is good, the computer doesn't crash. If literature is good, the society crashes.

Sitting on a bar patio in Little Rock. Dude at the next table screams "Linux _is_ UNIX!"

If we aren't defeated by our own politicians Little Rock has a chance of becoming a real city.
