@atomicpoet there’s a whole podcast dedicated to this overlap of spiritual/health purity and far right idealogy conspirituality.net

@atomicpoet cos they were never feminists in the first place. A lot of the work on the right is finding words to make taking away someone’s rights sound like it’s the morally superior choice, and not doing so is oppression.

@atomicpoet I tend to gamify special interests like: stage one: a one liner about a special interest. Are they all ears or more like “oh ok lol”. A social “if else statement”, if you will.

@atomicpoet I have a feelings mine won’t talk properly for quiet a bit. I totally relate to wanting to talk about special interests. The rejection part is so hard tho. We take things very to heart.

I would love someone to tell smaller me that I can think of small talk as a game and have kids to play with/hang with, and dish out my special interests in stages on people I think might be worthy. I was good at learning rules.

@atomicpoet thanks. That sort of helps me flesh out a picture of how long I’ll be trying to get her to reply to people- all good. Mine is a little over 2.

Today is a bad day. It’s really hard when someone is obsessed with their pet metric being hit or missed over the emotional and physical well-being of the people the metric is about. I’m not sure what category of emotional or cognitive cause this is related to or how to begin to try and entreat a change. And I’m tired.

@atomicpoet how old is your kiddo, if it’s not too intrusive to ask? Starting to realise mine is probably on the spectrum, like me and probably her dad.

Hey everyone :ablobcatwave:

Just a reminder, you can see all the recommendations of accounts to follow ever made on FediFollows organised into nice categories at:

mastodon.online/@FediFollows/1

As I post about more recommendations, they will automatically appear in this directory under whatever hashtags I've used on the post.

Also, many of the categories have multiple pages now. To see the next page click on "show older" at the bottom of the page.

“There are many commentators drawing comparisons between ‘Cryptocurrency mania’ and the South Sea Bubble, and note that, ‘promoters of the Bubble made impossible promises.’ Perhaps historians of the future will have cause to look back with similar incredulity on today’s market. Only time will tell. “

Pragmatically, this does potentially mean that European companies could leverage our regional privacy rights to become a data equivalent of Swiss banks.

I cannot recommend that regular folk try and get heroku to run an app like this. So that leaves something like confluence to be their knowledge managment app.

The situation sucks. But it’s a wake up call to take open source more seriously and that easy of installation /setup will determine how many “normies” adopt these tools.

Cloud computing made it easier for small businesses and individuals to have the kinds of productivity tools you used to need and IT person running a server to install.

But that relied on trusting that your data was safe and only would be accessible if you were breaking the law.

When the law changes because all the cloud apps are hosted in a single country that no longer respects individual privacy anymore, then we’re up 💩 creek.

So basically it seems the best available self hosted & open source option is “outline”, but since there’s a hosted SAAS version from the devs, there’s no info on how to self host it. janejeon.dev/running-outline-w

Is there anything like notion.so that is based in Europe or self hosted?

I have so much personal data in there (personal budget, baby’s milk tracker, etc) and the imminent death of personal privacy in the US is making me want to switch all my apps.

Really excited about this SVG alternative to Figma for

Made right here in Madrid!

Consider boosting?

“That's because the right to abortion, according to the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, stems from the right to privacy guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment's due process clause.

According to experts who spoke with Mashable, the Court's willingness to toss one bodes ill for what many Americans' consider to be their basic right to privacy in their own homes.”
