really appreciate the author's dedication to explaining math in an approachable way

cw: targeted towards trans femmes :')

fracture ,

how is this a women's space?

fracture ,

the way you're trying to exclude trans men from a general trans space "because most of the memes are trans fem" is really othering and hurtful

i don't feel like that reason makes it okay to be exclusive to trans men. if anything, that strikes me as a reason to be more considerate, not less

sort of like how a typical women's space should be considerate in including trans women, since they're a minority of a marginalized group, no?

incidentally, you should see that the rules of the subreddit which forbid bigotry and encourage tagging your post with the audience it's aimed at

i don't know how to embed pictures but hopefully this works ^^; i've been seeing this one around lately and i think it's very funny

oh that's crazy, i saw that syntax (from my client) and went, no way that's correct (bc of the empty square brackets). but it being alt text makes it make sense, thanks!

looks like my alt text is breaking it for me tho (it's removed in the above embedding)

fracture ,

hate speech (of which nazi speech is a subset of) isn't political either. it definitely should be banned because it demonstrably causes people to get hurt

insane stance to be advocating that nazis should have free speech in 2024

fracture ,

preach sib (i do not know your gender identity)

i also love testosterone

i do it weird and put it on before bed, but it's always a high point of my night

also it's making me so big and strong!~

really good article

make sure you do your online illegal activity AND RESEARCH ABOUT THOSE ACTIVITIES behind a VPN

if you need to communicate with other people about illegal activity, do it behind an encrypted service like Signal

illegal != immoral

stay safe out there folks

and that's just the wage theft that's explicitly illegal!

Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools (www.404media.co)

this could not be timed worse for Tumblr which is in huge hot water with its userbase already for its CEO breaking his sabbatical to ban a prominent trans user for allegedly threatening him (in a cartoonish manner), and then spending a week personally justifying it increasingly wildly across several platforms. the rumors had...

fracture , (edited )

it's not federated or open, but cohost is a tumblr-alternative run by a group of queer devs who promise not to sell the company or your data. i don't blame you if you don't buy into it, but i do like the platform

https://cohost.org/rc/welcome

edit: based on what /u/FaceDeer@kbin.social has mentioned about the TOS, as well as further elaboration i found in a thread about it (https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1588769277053739010), i don't think i can responsibly advocate for cohost, even as a closed/private alternative to tumblr

fracture ,

is there a way they could protect themselves ("still legally be able to function") without that clause?

fracture ,

thanks for sharing this information with us, i think it's important to discuss this stuff on the fediverse

i notice that beehaw doesn't have a similar clause in its TOS, as far as i can tell. without the expectation of you answering this question, i'm wondering what the difference is between the two such that cohost has such a clause and beehaw doesn't. maybe it's because one is run by an individual and one is run by a small company?

i did a search on cohost itself to see if anyone else talked about this and found this quite extensive thread: https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1588769277053739010

so based on what you've said and what's in that thread, i'm gonna update my post with some qualifications about cohost. thanks for piqing my interest in the TOS

fracture ,

i appreciate this link but i still don't understand what this meme in particular is referencing :')

fracture ,

so sick of article titles that say shit like "strike averted" and not "university correctly meets demand for reasonable wage increase" or "money stops getting funneled to profits so that employees can afford nice things"
