riffing off of what Prop said on the latest Hood Politics

y'all gotta start by helping your neighbour. your friends and family.

who needs money for rent/food/medical bills? who needs hormones and gender affirming care? who needs to get a state that's safe for getting an abortion?

go see how you can help those people first.

start there and build from that.

okay so now y'all Harris stans lost, what's the plan?

cause y'all gonna need a plan that's not just "let's just wait it out until the next election" because that's not gonna work out for most people.

and I get it. I get the desperation. but what still pisses me off is not the fundraising.

it is the way people boosting said fundraising would get angry at anybody criticizing the fundraising for Harris on here.

"hey maybe that's a bit gauche to raise that much money for an establishment politician when people here struggling to keep up with monthly bills"

and getting mad at people using the hashtag for their own fundraising needs *and* using the report system to report said people.

that is the shit that pisses me off.

so much for all that fundraising y'all could have done for each other's needs instead of giving it to a politician who was gonna lose and I think y'all knew she was gonna lose because y'all were *desperate*.

y'all wanna hear a joke?

#Mastodon4Harris

that's it, that hashtag is the joke

I need to commission a logo for a new podcast I'm working on. I'd prefer to commission someone on fediverse for this.

Who's interested?

Larry Mizell Jr. is on air now and as usual he is playing some interesting music

Larry is my most favourite of the KEXP crew fr

it feels like every time I put KEXP on I am adding albums to my Bandcamp wishlist

I say "surprising" because before then I hadn't seen video games handle the topic of PTSD with that kind of nuance and care, especially for a non-human character

this reminded me of the Overwatch Animated Short (remember when they made those?) for Bastion called "The Last Bastion" which came out around launch of OW 8 years ago

it was a surprisingly nuanced depiction of PTSD, what makes it even more cool is that Bastion isn't a human character

fucking christ on a stick, Overwatch came out 8 years ago

Horizon Lunar Colony legit is my least favourite map, even after they reworked it

2CP/Assault was in general a unfun game mode but HLC was the worst map of all the 2CP maps

sure as fuck never want to play 2CP Horizon Lunar Colony or Hanamura ever again in my life

oh man I feel like this is gonna be fun for a few games for nostalgia's sake and then its gonna get old real fast

Mastodon's anti-spam capabilities would improve 1000x if it just used SpamAssassin's Bayesian algorithm to train on spam text

fucking basic shit

wow more basic as fuck spam from mastodon.social that would have been caught by a email spam filter from the 2000s

and now wind down and sleep time

completed the three questionnaires the clinic sent me and sent the ones the "observer" needs to complete to my sister.

used a loop instead with the file module and that worked

the install-angie role is done, the next thing on the to-do list is the configuration templating and copy role

that's for another day, I'm pretty low energy now and its almost dinner time
