FFXIV NA Party Finder is breaking our minds, even as cohesive groups of good players. It's week 4, and we're still struggling to get clears and reclears in a timely manner due to the Behaviors. Woof. Made us all cranky tonight even with each other. Extremely unusual for these friend groups.

Then that's not encryption. A key that can be shared is no key at all. It's the year of Linux. (Says 30yr Windows IT guy)

“Hundreds of immigrant mothers” in Texas concentration camp uprising

pro-tip for Americans because you guys haven't had to do the post-fascism reconstruction yet* When you eventually, hopefully, put the thousands of ICE agents on trial, do not under any circumstances accept 'just following orders' as a legal defense. Trust me *many of us have, thank you America btw

i straight up just think everyone online with aggressive bad opinions is a bot now tbh

Midwest folks: ICE is building detention camps in North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota — centers for everyone targeted in the Midwest Violence elsewhere always has a pathway to where we live now and what we vote for Call your reps, ICE OUT MIDWEST www.wired.com/story/ice-de...

Gorgeous sunrise today. But red sky at morning, sailors take warning, so that storm is definitely on the way

are YOU a university professor, professor emeriti or associate professor of history, social sciences, law, philosophy, theology, and religion? Did you know you can nominate people for the Nobel Peace Prize?

I have a reputation at my job for speaking truth to power, which I've done to the head of HR, more than one director, and at least two of C-suite. It's the reason I'm still a contractor on questionable hours, but it's also the reason we still have two of our biggest clients. (Yes, I'm looking.)

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this: America's problems are solved problems. Just not here. What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

Am I the only one that thinks this cartoon by Charles Addams (the guy who created the Addams family) is legitimately creepy?

the knitters too. this is the top pattern on ravelry right now

Just wanna make it clear for folks: The same way Civil Rights protestors has hoses and dogs set on them? They're causing these life-changing injuries on purpose. They want to scare you off the streets.

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

once again saying: our ancestors accomplished more, with less, against worse.

People who were actually enslaved believed that chattel slavery would end one day. I'm sorry but to me that suggests that you [who are not enslaved in 2026] can also imagine an end to the current horrors.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Hey. You know those cute little crow time comics everyone loves so much? That's Isa. That's who everyone is talking about. I think that needed to be made clear since I noticed some confusion and a lot are actually rather unaware of this fact because she's great at separating herself from this.

I am glad to see more and more people talking about this, even in newspapers here in Sweden the talk about finding alternatives to US tech have started. You dont really realise how much we rely on it until now, when they went from being an ally to an enemy. I just hope we have time to change

Hello, traveler! This is my first post on this platform, show me your first post!✨🌟

I've been quoting this woman my whole life but didn't learn her name until today.

Hey, people are permanently losing their eyesight at some of these protests and have been for some time. These people, the ones that have put their bodies on the line, are among the people who would benefit from your usage of alt-text when posting protest related imagery.

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically. The people had tobacco medicine in the beginning, not the tobacco like what the white man has turned it into,

Reminder: You will focus on what you can control and release the rest. Your fear is understandable, but constantly worrying about the worst-case scenario isnt helpful. You will try to be kind and gentle with yourself. I'm proud of you

pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:

While the pasty incels who work the federal agencies continue to churn out feeble, bloodless AI pastiches of Axis propaganda, here’s how a living breathing artist powerfully invokes design history. This is by illustrator Emily K in South Philly, a free poster-sized download on her website: →
