Cool. Any must-have apps?

If you want to enable a new kind of Internet I suggest you get yourself to the 2018 #DWebSummit at the @internetarchive

The 2016 event was a watershed moment. Both @matrixdotorg and @ipfsbot launched there amidst a rich tapestry of technology, philosophy, ethics, and activism.

I'm going to work with my IA friends to make sure that more #platformcoop will be on offer. In 2016 Maira Sutton from Shareable was there, hoping for a lot more.

Love that my favorite Android Masto app, #Tusky, is open source. Love the fact that #Pinafore and #Halcyon exist as alternative web UIs. Love that #Pleroma is coming along well as an alternative #ActivityPub server. Love that the sex worker community on #Switter is actively working on building open source tech that works for their use case. Love to see instances like #OpenSocialAfrica and vis.social.

Y'all inspire me that this open source/free software thing may actually work out in the end. :)

so i’ve been thinking more and more about unions and have been looking for unions for therapists and counselors but that doesn’t seem to exist in the US

i found a UK one (https://pandcunion.ning.com) which seems small and a big vague but whose ideals seem to be good and aligned with what they should be.

how would one start a union???

Has anybody I know ever played hnefatafl ?

Oh, sure. They got outrageously rich, and NOW they realize they fucked up? Now they apologize for what they did to us all?

Fuck them all. Except Richard Stallman. He's OK.

If one is really authentic in their desire to help move America past it's brutally violent and racist identity, you've have to accept that there is no way white people come out as the 'good guys' in this story.

No, white people are not responsible for what happened int he past, but they are responsible for keeping the culture of racist hate alive and well in America.

There's just no way around that. If you want to help, you gotta face that reality.

We Klingons know exactly what to do when someone changes their name and/or pronouns.
