while you haven’t said anything overtly wrong, i’m tired of this particular talking point coming up everytime the LGBTQIA+ community expresses being tired of there being so littile LGBTQIA+ representation within the hollywood system that openly LGBTQIA+ actors can’t even get work portraying LGBTQIA+ characters.

so it’s clear, it’s not your fault that your comment seems like an obvious take. the media outlets that provide commentary on the hollywood system frame it as us whiney gays being unable to discern story from reality. but what we’re really saying is we’re tired of a system that will take our stories and sell them to us without contributing back to any of our wellbeing except for maybe the writer. you can’t tell me no queer actors came for those auditions. have you been to a drama club? queer is assumed to be the default within those spaces, yet to get further in the most visible acting oportunities, you either have to be straight or allow your queerness to be obliterated.

in 2026 you really have to ask an employer what they mean by object oriented programming in the interview. do they mean a methodology of organizing pure functional code into actors and message busses? do they mean imperitive code that’s interacted with through generic interfaces as with python? or do they mean javascipt style OOP where you define classes to organize your imperitive code within a functional language without any concern for the generic interfaces this could hypothetically enable?

the most active developers in both communities are frequently in both communities, and if they’re not, they have a ton of respect for the developers in the other community. The “Neovim split the community” crowd who villifies the Neovim community seems to be a thread unique to people who first got involved in open source through Hackernews and are supremely confident that they know better about what’s going on than people who are directly involved

Their evil is an expression of that they’re all a bunch of losers who find relief from how much like losers they feel through petty displays of power

that’s the great trick of white supremacy! it lets the capital class convice the working class to work against their own interests

functionally, the global north’s oligarchs all support eachother’s agendas. Ukraine is nominally part of the global south based on economic pressures. largely, the liberal position of western europe is to stay out of it to avoid retaliation. this is, of course, a fallacy. russia is an aggressor. no one can be made safe by ignoring their threat and waiting for it to go away. the same can be said for the so called united states, china, and india. but largely europe doesn’t want to intervene on the side of the colonized in a colonial war because europe benefits from colonialism more than it doesn’t

fuck trump, fuck ICE, free Sudan, Ukraine, and Palestine

if you a communist, and you take a pro-russian stance, you’re a fascist, not a communist

we’re under quarantine. we are crikket. the rest of the galactic community saw what were up to and is putting us in the isolation void until they observe that we can act right

not to say “i told you so” to everyone who voted for trump because they were struggling under biden, but hopefully this is a wakeup call to listen to the people who were saying they’d struggle more under this president than they had been under the last one

most any that you intsall firefox from the repos. it disables autoupdate which requires you install firefox from a downloaded file like an rpm, a deb, a snap, or a flatpak.

i can sympathize with if you’re new to linux and you install firefox from the repo manager, that message can be scary

have you ever heard of the tragedy of the commons? because it was coined by an ecofascist and has inserted itself deep into economic theory. ecofascists are few, just like all fascists, but their ability to ply power allows them to influence world decisions by seeming reasonable while they murder, kill, and disrupt

anteaters are a step on the path to crab, confirmed

Appalachia out here like “it’s been long enough. it’s time i got huge again”

most! i have one straggler on telegram

carpet bagging phony

we’re under galactic quarantine until we get over this whole fascism thing we’ve been doing the last 20k years

i can speak to this very directly. my uncle thought he was working on making nuclear power more renewable. but what was really happening is that depleted fuel rods are the magic sauce that makes thermonuclear devices (hydrogen bombs) work. even now, i do not truly believe the nuclear powered ai centers are about the progress of man, but rather an excuse to set up extraction economies stripping the earth of her natural resources to then be turned against the working poor who mined the wealth for their overlords in the form of weapons of instantaneous genocide. the only arguments i’m willing to hear in favor of nuclear are to decommission old petrochemical plants, but none of the nuclear plans being presented now have these provisions. the capital hoarders do not propose to sunset any coal, and accuse you of being a pro-petrochemical luddite when you stand in the way of their nuclear proposals.
