<<The last two weeks have seen
Britain’s gravest secret finally break into the public domain: that Russia interfered in the Brexit referendum. The fact that such an operation happened is not surprising or even, in itself, much disputed at this point: if the United States, Germany, France, and other Western democracies were targeted, it would be odd if the UK were left alone. >>

YESS mastodon now says "booped your snoot" for favs for me. Y'all on awoo dot space, change the language to "awoo!!" under settings if you'd like!

Remember folks, if you abandon Twitter, Facebook or Google, it's not a boycott, it's a STRIKE.

Because you're the [unpaid] workers that earn them billions of dollars in capital.

When you don't post, they don't get the benefit of your labour. And when you don't use, they lose money.

Social Media STRIKE days should be a thing.

South Park's problem is they punch down, a LOT, and treat it as "well we punch up too!"

That's like saying "well, I kicked a baby, then I punched a murderer, so it's fair and balanced."

Interviewer: "What would you say to your opponent after a night like tonight? It must feel very vindicating."
Roem: "I have nothing but nice things to say about Bob. I would never attack one of my constituents, and Bob is now one of my constituents."

An admirable woman, and I wish more of our politicians were as Christ-like.

tfw you are literally saying "fuck SMB I will use Fucking Trash Protocol" because SMB is an overcomplicated pile of fuck

Oops. Ethereum has a slight code flaw. No big; just all your money might literally disappear, that's all. It's probably not important.

Imagine what it would be like if America was a place where money could literally buy legislation

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/359110-gop-lawmaker-donors-are-pushing-me-to-get-tax-reform-done

<<Rep. Chris Collins (R-N.Y.) had been describing the flurry of lobbying from special interests seeking to protect favored tax provisions when a reporter asked if donors are happy with the tax-reform proposal.

“My donors are basically saying, ‘Get it done or don’t ever call me again,’ ” Collins replied.>>

Complexity is not a sign of intelligence.

It is a sign of gatekeeping.

Make things as simple as possible

But no simpler.

This is the story that Disney was so angry at the LA Times for writing that they barred their movie critics from Thor: Ragnorok pre-screenings.

<<Over the last two decades or so, as Disney’s annual profit has soared, the company has secured subsidies, incentives, rebates and protections from future taxes in Anaheim that, in aggregate, would be worth more than $1 billion, according to public policy experts who have reviewed deals between the company and the city.>>
