Understanding fascism, art, critics, and thinking about judging artists and art works, only tangentially related to D&D. This blog post is about "The Worst Critic In The History Of The World."

This is the same Zak I linked to a few days ago. These blog posts are golden.

the biggest supermarkets in #switzerland are coops, one is called "Coop" (yes πŸ˜†) and the other is called Migros. they are about the same size and in most places you will find both (and even close to each other most of the time)

Is Latex still the best way to write mathematical notes, or is there better software?

@karl I find the Ur-Fascism article by Umberto Eco still relevant today.

@kmj @karl @im Sure, but how does the budget compare to fascism? Was Hitler good for the budget? Was Pinochet good for the budget? Franco? Salazar? I don’t care!

@karl @im I used to be Austrian, I have family in Austria, my dad lives in Vienna, my sister lives in Klagenfurt, and every now and then I drive past the curve where Haider died in a car crash and it is still full of flowers. I feel quite qualified to write about Austria. The budget is not the most important part of government.

@JordiGH I am not sure I have read anything by John Grisham (I might have, I read all kinds of paperbacks my friends had back when I was an undergrad), but I found his writing method really interesting.

@im Do all the fascist parties count if they’re (not yet) in power? FN in France, AdF in Germany? Did we loose Austria to FPΓ– or are they not established enough? SVP in Switzerland is part of the majority but doesn’t hold power in its own, either. So, there’s still hope as long as the institutions make it through the brown years.

@m3tti @solderpunk @Cat one of these days I will have to go through my Moku Pona list and do the Big Update. I just hope other people are keeping track of the Phlogs!

β€œit's on the shoulders of technologists to learn the lesson of EME: contributing to technologies that stop the public from adapting or auditing their tools is a profoundly unethical act, one that widens the gap between people with disabilities and the (temporarily) abled people who don't (yet) need to make those adaptations.” eff.org/deeplinks/2018/06/disa

@ebel Thanks. Added to my notes. πŸ‘πŸΎ

@brook @eleanor Yeah! We all need more leisure. The kind of leisure classical Greek philosophers talked about except not financed by slavery.
