Back in March, @pedropeguerojr.com and I hosted our first meetup for @3-3.fyi. Our next meetup will be the first time that we *don't* have someone give a presentation.
I want to highlight the great presentations we got this year because they have been *really* fucking good.

The problem with PLURIBUS is that it only has two characters. One is a hivemind with a selection of bodies and the other only has one emotion. Three episodes in and after the initial shock, the story is merely a selection of scenarios with emotionally identical structure and outcomes. It’s so dull.

I think the big draw to @letterboxd.social for me outside of design is it seems like people on there really love movies and so the ratings are actually valuable for me.
Are there other sites for other forms of media? @record.club is good for music but what about: comics, tv, books, etc?

I’m sure doing this on every social platform is easy for the gov’t but bluesky has to by far be the easiest. Like basically realtime monitoring.
This is your regular reminder that the federal government is actively monitoring social media and most social media sites will comply with subpoenas to some degree.
So, you know. Be careful what you post

Israel is engaged in genocide, it is a genocide materially assisted by the US, and AIPAC is the biggest lobby pushing for that material assistance to continue.

We need to proactively address anyone trying to exploit these realities and justified anger to advance or engage antisemitism.

another point to reiterate is that a lot of the 21st century push around anti-lgbt legislation across africa is funded by white evangelical missionary organizations. they'll claim lgbt inclusion is a "western colonial" imposition while reading off scripts given to them by family watch international.
