I'm really glad I never got into gambling beyond buying some lottery tickets here and there. It's probably the least productive industry there is, even tobacco companies at least have a product with a production chain. The only thing gambling companies produce is human suffering.

Cloudflare specifically reported on a reduction in Yandex bot traffic and people ran with it because they're technically "Russian bots". I get it, it's comforting thinking that the global rise of fascism is due to a single rogue State or individual, but that's not the world we live in.

Been seeing a lot of people claiming far-right online engagement went down after the Yandex bombing. Y'all realize all those bots were web crawlers, right? It's the same thing Google does to index web searches. They weren't social media bots, there was no significant change in social media traffic.

Please check out and support Resonite, it's such an amazing and fun experience that deserves the chance to get out of barely surviving. I have had more fun and felt more in control then I ever did with the alternatives. I love that I can just make a thing or import an image or video to share.

Oh geez, it's been three years already. I haven't even realized it's today. On one hand... yay we survived three years! On the other... how are we still surviving, everything feels like it's on fire lately! So on the third hand (which is a foot) - thanks everyone for helping us survive.

In times of crisis, you CANNOT win by selling yourself as just the status quo, as just "we're not them", especially when the other side is getting foreign funding and preferential treatment in social media. We aren't in the 90s.

It's about time the institutional "left" understood that anti-capitalism is VERY popular. The "left" isn't losing because they're too radical, it's the exact opposite. Fascists sell themselves as a radical alternative, even if they want to preserve capital and exploit workers even more.

One thing not a lot of people realize about the Brazilian election results, as terrible as they are, is that 3 radical leftists got elected to either the federal or State legislature. These people were dismissed by the ruling party as "webcommunists" who'd just split the left vote. They won.

A lot of people assume FA is profitable. If that were the case we wouldn't have needed a GFM when Neer passed to keep it out of probate. It's been two years. The funds were used. FA is struggling financially. And I am 🌟s t r e s s e d🌟 I'm scared to ask for help, I feel like no matter how much-

It's incredible I even have to say this, but if you're making a list of supposedly awful people, claiming two individuals are the same because they happen to share a *sona name* is completely absurd, especially when taking 2 minutes to look into who you're accusing is enough to prove you wrong.

Speaking as a former lawyer, if you make statements about someone that can severely impact their reputation, and they're later found to be false, it's in your best interest to issue a public retraction. There's a reason journalists ask for input from whoever they're accusing.
