Kiwifarms musings, recovering from hate
Reading the KiwiFarms forums is incredibly emotionally exhausting these days, and it's not like I can just ignore them anymore when they occasionally target folks close to me, and are known to produce mass shooters.
It's hard to believe that this sort of toxicity is what I used to surround myself with, and that it is so normalized in that sort of discourse. In a lot of ways, they hurt themselves and those close to them by getting involved in this, almost as much as they hurt their victims.
There are some people who I know from a past life in there who genuinely depress me, because they're heading straight towards a total life burnout stage and I can't help but wonder how much happier they'd be if they could just leave the fear and resentment of the other behind. I can tell that they are hiding a lot of things about themselves for fear of being torn apart by their own too.
So basically we have exactly two weeks to get a lawyer and it's gonna cost us $4000 up front, so anything anyone can spare and/or any boosts will help

Bernie people, your guy just wants to rename and/or redistribute ICE
Sorry, it's true
The whole entire federal-level Democratic party, Bernie included, needs a reckoning with their role in facilitating the border policies that Trump took advantage of and escalated

TN, homophobia, adoption
#Tennessee gov will sign the bill which protects the taxpayer funding of "faith-based" (in this context, bigoted) organizations that deny adoption to #LGBTQ prospective parents https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/tennessee-governor-says-he-will-sign-anti-gay-adoption-bill-n1116266
It's emulators all the way down (emulator is https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/silhouette, a Nintendo-internal SNES emulator for PPC)
Example: just because I am accessing a Google site from an IP geolocated in Japan does not mean I want content localized in Japanese. Especially if my browser is already telling the web server I want it in English. Which it is.
tonight i explained to my 3 year old why "the police arrest Bad People" (a sentence uttered in one episode of a toddler show she watches) is incorrect in an age-appropriate way.
i feel immense relief about this because i can't maintain my integrity if i allow my kid to develop the idea that cops and rules are inherently good.
Social media is distorting our sense of mainstream opinion. Twitter has become journalists’ easiest and most reliable source of OMG stories. This gives the social network—and its most active users—outsize power to shape the political conversation. https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2020/01/jeremy-corbyn-labour-twitter-primary/604690/
Yes, I received this free, but damn, it's good stuff. If your tastes include the feistier side of synthwave, you might want to give this a listen.
