I‘m watching Gardener’s World. (BBC) and they featured a garden based food coop and I had a vision of Station 11 (post apocalyptic story Max), a simpler time in my imagination when people work together in small groups for the common good. It was appealing and strange that it would take a post armageddon scenario or colonizing another planet, to possibly see that. The planet scenario would likely be high tech, but who know? 🤔

@skykiss While I whole heartedly agree with the sentiment directed at , I hesitate to use an overused phrase by the Right to mislead the weak minded among them, during their upside down, Koolaid binging, group hallucinations.🤔

@TonyStark @rabbijill
I'm definitely not a lawyer but I worry that every ruling from the judge opens up a potential delay or even worse might get the case up to the SCOTUS before we've had a chance to reform it.

@GreenFire @Huntn00 Excellent graphic. It really drives the point home that there’s way too much dirty money in our politics here in the US.

@Huntn00
The last more than a few years have been a real wake up call towards alerting us to what some Americans think about our democratic republic form of government for sure.

I don't think that there's anything ethical or good for democracy that we can do about the anti-democratic Americans themselves. Hopefully, enough of them on the left side of the aisle are now going to get more involved in government and elections so that we can get and keep them out of power otherwise idk.

@GreenFire A combination of rationalizing, denial, and ignorance. A common problem for lay people is who they chose to vest their trust in, and commonly that trust goes to the source that resonates with their wishful thinking, prejudices, and perceived self interest.

Finally got a free Oracle VM so I'm giving self-hosting another shot :blobcat3c:

#introduction for a new server... I'm a 30something year old ace nerd who's mostly here to vibe and talk about my hobbies. I enjoy #gaming (including but not limited to #FFXIV and #HonkaiStarRail), #books (mostly #fantasy and #scifi), and #knitting and #crochet. I'm a software engineer in real life, but you probably won't catch me talking shop here. I also have a very cute Siamese cat named Minnie, and I post far too many pictures of her LOL. Cat tax is included, hehe #CatsOfMastodon

Please boost to help the new server federate!! Love y'all

@n1vux @jbaggs @mattblaze I dunno, I was watching Air Force One (Harrison Ford) the other night and apparently subduing hijackers involves firing off Uzi's inside a 747 willy nilly 😂

Looks like he was #4 for takeoff. Former presidents apparently don't get to cut the line.

I assume that for safety reasons all ketchup had been removed from the plane's galley prior to departure.

There will be a trump trial every quarter next year. He will have to be there everyday of each trial. This thought brings me a tiny joy.

That was quick. Texas A&M is paying Kathleen McElroy $1 million to settle claims after right-wing agitators and ultimately some regents objected to her hiring as journalism program director. tamus.edu/internal-review/

You know how weird things are these days? I repeatedly find myself rooting for the #CollegeBoard as defenders of #academic honesty and critical thinking.

@Huntn00 @GreenFire This is so true! Many people also don't really pay attention to what's happening in politics—either at the national level, or at the local level.

Thanks a lot, Florida. Your idiot leaders have now taken away my daughters' ability to take an AP Psychology class, which would have started in a week. In turn, this is taking away her chance to earn college credit, and therefore also is going to cost me money. I really appreciate your closeminded bullshit. 😡
