Natalie, further organizing
So at the memorial service for Natalie in Seattle today, we spun up a Discord server for further solidarity, memorialization, and organization, including potential legal action.
Here's the invite link. Any freind of hers is welcome.

collar question
so, whenever i end up replacing my collar (which died), i'm thinking about having it be a kind i can wear in the bath/shower and stuff, instead of leather maybe
i've seen a few kinds like that over the years, one a bit like a coated steel rope (like you might secure a bike with) and one was like a perfect stainless steel ring [which needed a special key to open it] :3
but i don't remember their names
and idk if there's cool new ones
pls tell me ones you like? (boostable if you wanna)
@aparrish The more I think about Mastodon, as a project, as a social network, the more I think it challenges the definition of success. Everyone, especially detractors, are quick to call it a failure or a nice try. While our daily activities here tend to show us the opposite. What is a successful social network that does not play the rules of close VC funded ones?

i love how in DS9 it's established that, being able to do all this amazing "hook the x into the y" bullshit they do on TNG and voyager... is not some amazing coincidence, it's explicitly how the federation computers are designed
and cardassian computers DON'T let you do that, bc cardassian society and ethics are totalitarian
the federation computers trust the chief engineer or whoever to decide that it's worth the risk to do smth possibly unsafe if they're gonna.. explode anyway if they don't, or whatever
