FSF staff union elects Ian Kelling to the board fsf.org/news/welcoming-ian-kel

There is a ton more work to be done to restore trust, and there's good reason to remain skeptical about the road ahead, but this seems like a notch in the right direction, at least.

@artemis@vulpine.club My daughter and I had this theory that Kiryu is basically an AU version of Kenshiro where the nukes didn't go off in the 90's turning the world into a deserted hellscape.

Reminder about how to use my pronouns: pronoun.is/xe

Thank you friends :potion_demiboy: :heart_nb:

@artemis@vulpine.club Kiryu seems to like acting tough to intimidate, because scaring fools off is better than outright blowing them up a punch :3c

Please, if you are planning funny pranks, don't crash another supercarrier into the Suez. Please wait until they've cleared away all the digging equipment first.

imo we had enough men and women in fiction already and it's time for all new characters from now on to be other genders

@Gumby yeah, I don't get it. Like it's nice, but there's a privilege barrier to participating

mh, internalized ableism 

@dark_soil we are often our own worst enemies

My friend is trans femme and unemployed. I'm raising $105 to cover training fees for a job she was rejected from. They've sent the bill to collections. She was rejected due to a strike on her record for shoplifting *groceries* while very sick a few years ago

Fuck the state! Help a trans gal!

fediblock rec I guess but also just like, cmon 

Someone from “society.oftrolls.com” with the pronouns “I/me” in their bio popped into the replies of a week-old toot of mine to tell me it was boring and also that it’s funny how Americans think f*g is a slur. Le epic troll 😈

The martyr parent dance, abuse/control 

@ljwrites oh I am very familiar with this, let's just say I am glad she's dead now.

@Gumby watch2gether has in-browser VC too, so that is another option

Subtooting another rando techbro 

Using the github issue tracker to file protests against the open letter makes you look like an asshole.

And this "war" that you speak of has been going on against women in the computing world since the time of Ada Lovelace. So kindly fuck off fossbro. It's time to clean house.

Since we're talking about FSF, I feel like this post about FSFE is relevant as fuck.

There's a toxic culture problem within free software. If you don't recognize that in your projects and communities surrounding it you can't possibly combat it.

@mavica_again Ugh I know right? Tell me about it!

You'd think that people would know better than to fall for this scam.

re: random worldbuilding thoughts, it gets a little weird 

@Felthry @socks They could be internal gills as well. Not as efficient as their ancestors' but still serviceable for amphibious purposes.

@socks Then there's the question, why does a character have to be a girl to have boobs?

;)

Imagine a lizard race where the guys are the ones who got the boobs.
