human beings were meant to wake up at noon and eat nothing but cookies. it's what the cavemen did

living in the anthropocene means mourning a world I never really knew

So my best friend from high school made a documentary about an Ojibwe tribe that lives in the UP, and I thought I should share the trailer: https://vimeo.com/344217227

Hey everyone, Earth Strike UK has just 17 hours to raise the last £1,000 needed in order to fund the first general strike in the country for almost a century. It has the backing (and financial support) of the Industrial Workers of the World, the University and College Union, the Bakers, Food and Allied Workers' Union, and the International Trade Union Confederation. They're aiming to get 1 million people out in streets during September, now it just needs to secure the funding.

Nazi Germany didn't just use the gas chambers out of nowhere. They first deliberately denied food, water, & medical services to the people in the concentration camps.

Then, when the conditions became so horrid that they risked infecting the outside world, the Nazis decided to "put them out of their misery" because they "didn't have the resources to take care of them".

They let it reach critical mass and then did a "mercy killing".

Video YouTube keeps recommending: "In Star Trek's economy, what gives life meaning?"

That question really shows how capitalism has conditioned us.

Good for them?

I miss how totalitarian tyranny enabled by cybernetic automation used to be seen as a bad thing.

Fedi is like a comedy show and a burlesque show and an art show and a TED talk and a court trial all going on at once, on the same stage, and all the participants are engaged in each of those all at the same time.

Hey, I have a blind friend who might want to join us on the Fediverse. Does anyone have a guide to accessibility etc that might be more useful than me just sending her a link to an instance?

three years ago was the first rustconf when I was spending most of my brain cycles questioning my gender

tomorrow is the fourth rustconf, and I'm queer as hell and sharing my hotel room with my girlfriend
