What am I if I want everyone whose lands are being rolled into by oligarch tanks to fight and win their a central homes back?

Lenin said that if he were in Britain, he’d vote Labour. Not because he agrees with them, but to show the British people that yes, moving leftwards does make improvements and no, Labour is not doing enough. To show them that a further-left Socialist party is needed.

Accelerationism is a … choice. It’s easier, in my view, to push further left under ineffective neoliberalism than it is under right-wing authoritarianism. What you may view as a chance to get your ideal from the ashes, the fascists view as their chance to put you down for good.

I’m fortunate to live in a state with ranked-choice, where I can literally make a gradient of my preferences for nearly every contested election I vote in.

What I see most frequently is uncontested elections. Vote for the one registered candidate, or write someone in. Most of those have an R next to their name, and dollars to doughnuts a red armband in their closet.

“Liberate” is an interesting choice of term, given the communities in question aren’t in Russia’s sovereignty.

To be clear, I don’t personally have proof of whether the citizenry is broadly thrilled about or terrified of the soldiers in their streets.

I just believe it’s journalistic best practice for any case where an army taking part in a war of territorial expansion claims territory to use a neutral term like “control” rather than a biased one like “liberate” or “oppress”.

I suck at programming, and GH is easier to use. As I learn more, and gain some skill, I’ll waste Codeberg’s server space instead of Microsoft’s

In the most British act ever, Britain is cracking down on a drug that makes you laugh.

If code is where you’d like to contribute, a lot of large projects label some non-critical and low-complexity fixes for known issues as “beginner contributions”. They should be relatively easy contributions, for folks with some background in code.

Of course, if you have spare cash flow, donate a fiver to your favorite open source project. It goes a long way.

If simply using it is the goal, check out f-droid for android, an alternative app store for open source apps, and look into open source replacements for your usual suite of apps. It feels good to use, and to know you’re keeping your own data yours.

Is this the ceasefire that both countries said was happening at different times?

Sorta like saying truce right before getting punched, eh?

At least here in the US, we didn’t lock down at all. That was kinda the problem.

A permanent victory, no. Another shot fired in a long war, yes. A thankful nod down the trenches to Judge Boasberg.

RT, the Russian state media outlet, is annoyed that after 50 years of Germany responding to open threats with inaction, they’ve decided to have a military again.

In other news, the sun rose today.

I’m gonna grain-of-salt just about anything reported by Cucker Tarlson

neovim through nvf on NixOS. I’m not even a power user, I just had a shit mouse in college and didn’t want to use it and now I’m hundreds of lines of Lua too deep to go back. This is my life now.
