So my daughter and I did a thing together and got some piercings.

I got a rook and a conch and she got a tregus.

Highly recommend following @Huntn00. Great free-thinker and progressive.

I hope E Jean goes after CNN. They allowed trump to defame her all over again. Sue them both for millions more.

Someday the history books (if they are allowed) will talk about this moment as key in the normalization of extremism. Libraries (if they are allowed) will have programs analyzing this. Independent media outlets (if they are allowed) will decry this moment as a new low in the mainstreaming of white supremacy. #CNN

Looking forward to the CNN special on how much concentration camp guards loved their pets.

If convicted and sentenced to prison, do you think it is fair that George Santos should have to go to jail even though none of his crimes involved violence? 🤔

Shame on CNN. That was disgusting.

In the words of Garry Kasparov:

PDA vs "smartphone" 

If I wanted to write and edit something on a very small device that would fit in my pocket a Palm OS PDA is legitimately more pleasant to do that on than a smartphone. (I am literally editing smolZINE on my m500 as we speak)

Interacting with text, aka actually doing something useful with a pocket computer, is so much easier. The stylus perfect for selecting text. The shortcut strokes for copy and paste built into the OS are quick and convenient. Even switching between apps is faster and easier.

This is simultaneously praise for how well designed Palm hardware and software is and an indictment of how garbage smartphones are for doing stuff you should be able to do easily on a computer.

And while we’re waiting to hear where all Santos’ money came from, will some journalist, PLEASE find out who paid off all Kavanaugh’s debts!
