โAcross U.S. prisons, LGBTQ inmatesโespecially trans womenโare disproportionately assigned to clerical jobs: typing, filing, data entry. Staff justify it as โtheyโre good at paperworkโ or โless likely to be violent.โ Pay: pennies per hour. Many say itโs forced feminized labor that trades on stereotypes while keeping them visible & vulnerable to harassment.โ

The evolution of pizza delivery is the plainest example of our everything-to-the-top economic decline.
=Ordering a pizza in 2005=
Customer: I would like to place an order with free delivery!
Business: Thanks! One of the drivers on our payroll will arrive shortly!
Customer: Great! I will tip them at least $3, or more if anyone in our household is attracted to them or likes their jokes!
Driver: I will now buy other things with minimum wage plus tip income, and write the gas and mileage off my taxes!
=Ordering a pizza in 2025=
Customer: Why is this pizza $30?
Business: We donโt know. If you need delivery, please order through the app.
THE APP: With our fees your pizza is now $45. Would you like to tip the driver? Otherwise, we wonโt pay them.
Customer: Wait, none of this is going to the driver? What are these fees for then?
THE APP: They are for The App.
Business: We also have to pay for the privilege of being on The App. If we donโt, weโre aborted from the internet.
Driver: If you donโt tip, Iโm yeeting that pizza through your front window, because I just depreciated the value of my car for negative money.
Customer: Why did I pay $15 in fees to get my pizza yeeted?
The App: Good question. The fees are now $17. I recommend blaming a foreign war or food stamps for this.
I keep hearing about new AI software because of crazy shit people let it do, mainly deleting entire codebases or drivesโฆ So Iโve been playing with google AntiGravity lately (in a VM because im not an idiot)
Wisconsin lawmakers push to ban VPNs in age verification bill A.B. 105, claiming to โprotect childrenโ by blocking privacy tools. But itโs technically impossible & harms businesses, students, journalists. โWhat the actual fuck?โ
Itโs almost winter, and you know what that means: hoodie season. It also means you now have the opportunity to not only buy a very nice new hoodie, but one that supports human artists (and websites).

@dannotdaniel I do wish it wasnโt chrome based, but it has every single feature I want in a browser, the (closed source) UI is hands down the best UI of any browser Iโve used, out of the box it already includes ad blocking, rss reader, and calendar, along with DAVx compatible services to sync with.
And they actually Improve itโฆ like new features arenโt just shoveling in AI or whatever mozilla thinks is worth forcing on all their users. Vivaldi actually puts out regular updates that are worth reading the release notes about.
Their mobile version is great too
@dilmandila @blakefox @operationpuppet I am more then happy to have other folks content hosted on my peertube instance, but I wouldnโt go so far as to call mine โreliableโ since its literally just my home server and there are no backups of the videos.
It is fairly easy to setup your own, Mine has been going for over a year now mostly just mirroring youtube channels i like, but if you want to test run on someone elseโs feel free to use mine

GOPโs โcoercionโ panic is projection: They ban abortion, endangering victims (9,000+ more IPV incidents since Dobbs), then accuse providers of abuse. โThis case is about coercion. Plain and simple.โ Real coercion? State-sponsored forced pregnancy killing pregnant people.

Recent events have compelled me to issue a reminder that โleftistโ does not mean โvibes with the cool kids at harvardโ. it means opposing capitalism. by definition, if you support capitalism - or endorse (willingly or by default, whether at home or abroad) the genocide, apartheid, exploitation, racism, sexism, homophobia, grievance politics, transphobia, political intimidation, or imperial violence that capitalism relies on - you are not a โleftistโ.

Wish I knew why this happens every time i unlock my screenโฆ It must be triggered by something because the number of times it reshows the bar is different depending how long ive been away. Reloading hyprland configs fixes it just fine so its a very minor annoyance really, but an annoyance none the less.
