It's maddening. The concepts for a better world are there. And we constantly go on about human perseverance, human ingenuity, about how humans at the core love each other.
When have we forgotten to try new things and then adapt? Why are so many hellbent on keep doing what doesn't work?

2024-06-09 19:13:27

Maybe we should retire the idea of a "libertarian right". These people are libertarian in the sentiment that THEY want all the freedom but not for anyone else. In order to protect their freedom and enforce rules on you, they always turn to a master.
The libertarian right is just a mask for fascists.

It's so tragically obvious that #Zionism is nothing but #fascism of another ilk. Underlying is the same greed for money, land and power that signifies #Capitalism.

Hola fediverse,
maybe some of you have fixed it.
I am using #Fitbit wearables for #jogging for a while now, and the Fitbit app used to sync to #Strava without issue.
Ever since #Google bought Fitbit and took over this sync does not work anymore.
Any idea how to fix this? Don't tell me to google this, I tried. I am more hoping someone here had the same issue and knows a fix.

2024-03-15 08:45:54

Look, you have to fight fascism NOW. Oppose it everywhere in any way you can and see fit.
The longer you just sit on your arse the harder it will be.
You WILL have to fight them.
And it WLL get violent.
This is a truth.
It's a hard truth to accept; I grapple with it myself.
But defeatism now will only lead to the camps. Not for other people; it will be YOUR way to the camps.
Believe you me: it is that fucking simple, and it is that fucking true.
It's in the history books. Plain, true and simple.
The Nazis could have been stopped around the late 20s early 30s. Later on, resistance meant certain death.
You will not be able to switch sides or go "under cover". They have lists, and if you are - by whatever fate or whatever God - not on those lists, they will put you there if they need someone there. And fascism always needs someone on a list.
Fight them now! Fight them in whatever way you can.
You will have to fight!

The funny...no... tragic...nah...the interesting bit about the Wizard School Terf is that she could've just harboured her hatred in silence, and she would've been fine. She'd still be a quite adored person with fans around the globe. If you don't seek out trans-places, you really don't come across transpeople all that often. She could've just done that.
But famous people really, at some point, get the feeling they have to voice their opinions on anything, anywhere and anytime. And then she doubled-down.
Now she is only surrounded by crazies....

K. I am tired.
Just remember through all my ranting, annoyance and sometimes downright anger:
The greatest treasure I have ever found, the greatest gift in my life are other people. Everything I love, love doing, love sharing...all of it is usually created by and for people. The only exception might be nature's magnificence which does not need us. But even this, I love to experience and share with people.
My reason for fucking anything is you lot.

By the way, you can criticise Biden and still not be pro-Trump. You can point out war crimes and downright genocide in Gaza put in motion by the current, fascist Israeli government, and still not be an antisemite. You can be against Putin's invasion but still know that not everything is kosher in Ukraine.
The world is not black and white. In fact, this easy way of just choosing a side is exactly what fascists use everywhere around the globe.
Anyone who sells you easy answers that consist of "one-side good, other side bad" arguments are certain to lie....
Don't fall for cults, and for fuck's sake stop waving flags...

2023-09-18 14:34:07

Okay, hivemind. I need an opinion.
Let me set the scene:
For nearly two years now, I am in this course for a new job. Throughout the course developed the regular spread of people who are quite good at this overall, people who are not really in it. Some people who know one topic while being bad at another. Like, a regular spread of 'intelligence' or aptitude.
Now, in the past six months several people of the group approached me, told me they are struggling and they love when I explain things. Sweet little compliment, right? And I love to help out. That's just the kind of idiot I am.
So, this weekend I sat down and worked half a day to create a study group as well as a schedule in which we can revise things. I did it because obviously I cannot tutor everyone individually. I even invited people who I think stand no chance in hell or who I actively disliked. But I invited them anyways, because I am an idiot.
Fast forward to today, and every single fucking one of these people bailed. Some with (bad) excuses, some didn't deem it at all appropriate to tell me why they didn't turn up.
Naturally - because I hold grudges - I went online and basically cancelled the whole thing.
Now people calling me an asshole, and I am SO FUCKING MAD about this.
Let me be clear: I do not think for a second I am in the wrong here. They asked me, I did, they deemed the thing they asked me for not important enough´, so I cancelled the thing.
What makes me mad to the core of my being is that THIS is apparently what people think solidarity is. It is something they want given to themselves but don't feel the need to extend to others.
I am so friggin pissed off about this. Like genuinely annoyed.
I guess I don't even need an opinion about it. I just wanted to vent.

@npub1qe5…8ugl No FDP- politician gets off the hook by stating the obvious.
Voting for autocrats and fascists is one of the ways people try to escape the daily exploitation of neo-liberal/libertarian economics. Unfortunately, these people do not see that the economic policies of their little national-identity-boner-clubs will be even worse for them.
The FDP has pushed neoliberal thinking at every turn for 40 years now.
THEY created the fascists, they think they can use the fascists to control the exploited. They will fail in doing so, and in the end everyone loses.
Fuck the #FDP !

There she is. Untamed, kind and cruel. A treacherous little thing.
The peninsula I am standing on is just north of what would have been outside the city gates in ye olden times. And this place has refused to become a usable part of the town for as long as the town existed. It became a bath place once, the latest attempt was sprucing it up for a garden fair, and yet it always falls back into some kind of Dornröschen sleep. A place of perpetual quiet melancholy. My only happy place in my hometown.
You could sit here for hours, looking over into another country, dreaming of drifting towards the sea.
I make it a point to turn up here for at least half an hour every time I am in town, and it is weird to think that some day it'll be the last time. And no matter how much of a constant she was in my life, once I am gone she will already have forgotten about me.
In the face of nature, we are so utterly insignificant that it is comically tragic that we presume to be her masters.
We wound her, and she will just shrug us off.

Chuck Berry over Elvis Presley anytime.
But that's just my random opinion.
Nothing Elvis ever did beats the raw stomping energy of 'Maybellene'.
And yes, I do recognise the fact that the topic of the song's lyrics is something I absolutely despise. Connecting the 'sexiness of cars' with masculinity is something I loathe when I encounter it today.
But I will simply concede that the song is so frigging simple and just good, and the lyrics in this case well and truly are 'of their time'. Doesn't free them from criticism but ultimately, for me, not a deal breaker.
It's a good song, y'all.
(and it, arguably, started Rock'n'Roll....and as much as I try to listen to a lot of stuff, I will always be a sucker for guitars even though I could not play one for the life of me)

Get it into your thick skulls. And no, having to choose a server on sign-up does not make this a site for nerds. It just shows you do not understand how the fucking internet works, because all you do is 'consume' community while trying to get clicks.

Just helped my sister fill out forms for various shit. Turns out that even a low paid job amounts to 100k when you never pay for rent, your own food or... anything because daddy.
And my step-father regularly has the chuzpa to call me 'the spoiled kid' at family reunions.
Apart from fucking up university, I did EVERYTHING this empire of dirt asked me to, and yet... at the age of forty I have shit all to my name but a dying planet and fascists at my doorstep.
So, I tried to get outside to walk off my annoyance, and who do I run into? A mob of party people on their way to a gig of that Nazi band while loudly chanting songs about how all these women 'wanted it'.
In general, I love people. I genuinely believe nothing in this life is more important than the people we meet and our connections to them; and yet some days y'all make me cry.
How are there so many people who just don't see it? Do you lot not have EYES??!!?
It hurts, okay? The fact that I'd love to connect to almost everyone but apparently I am only interesting if I can be (momentarily) exploited or used as a punching bag.
And here's the thing with the woods: Even if I could flee, I'd go crazy because I need people around.
So yeah, I am annoyed.
