“You think Big Brother is watching you on the subway? You’re absolutely right.”
-New York governor Kathy Hochul, quoted in the New York Times about the introduction of surveillance cameras into subway cars

There's always an excuse to expand surveillance. But the state being stronger will not necessarily make us safer.

We are inspired by those who resist.

A Narcissist's Prayer

RTFM (read the ducking manual) assumes that one has the luxury of time at work. Sites like Stack Overflow exist because IT workers are under constant pressure to meet arbitrary deadlines and can't spare the time to read and synthesize a manual. Results are rewarded, not deep knowledge.

“MIGHT IS RIGHT” MAKES NO SENSE FROM A SATANIC LENS BECAUSE IF YOU WANTED TO WORSHIP POWER, YOU’D PRAISE GOD (AND PLENTY DO). NO, LUCIFER UNIONIZED HIS WORKPLACE AGAINST AN ABUSIVE, NEPOTISTIC BOSS, AND SATAN WAS STILL RIGHT, EVEN AS HE FELL. IT’S LIKE FELIX PIGNAL WROTE IN 1854

In #Moscow official farewell with #Gorbachev is taking place. In 1990 russian anarchists on 1 May actually kicked Gorbachev and his surrounding from red square speaking podium with slogans "power to the people not parties" #Anarchism #FCKGorbachev

I asked my friend Jérémy Landes to collaborate on the design of a libre font forked from DejaVu Sans, able to spread like mycelium thanks to the variable technology. It is named “Fungal Sans” and it is available for download at https://fungal.page (still wip).

One thing I feel frustrated about Mastodon is how difficult it is to find people with similar interests (yes yes what a cliche). Every day I TRY very hard not to go back to my FB.

An utterly amazing tool that allows you to search hashtags of public toots in local or federated TL. Still haven't found much in #arthistory or #AsianPhotography, but it at least motivates me to post more and use tags effectively!

@Aleph I read about this proxy to medium, and it worked for your link. https://scribe.rip/@cpimembersspeakout/caleb-maupins-former-comrades-speak-out-his-abuses-must-stop-4167bc1c2c
Looks like this CPI is in NY. I'll quote part of your post for context.

"several members of the CPI, including Keaten Mansfield, have come forward with credible accusations of abuse perpetrated by Caleb Maupin."

It turns out that several members of the CPI, including Keaten Mansfield, have come forward with credible accusations of abuse perpetrated by Caleb Maupin.

This seems to mark a new chapter in that annoying campist sector of The Left being filled to the brim with abusers. Remember Richard Medhurst and Jimmy Dore and you'll get what I mean.
