Oh, I am a dumb butt. I should have mentioned if #SouthernGothic isn't your thing, you can add that term (and #AppalachianGothic) to your filters list and you can still follow me and not see any of those posts...if I was alert enough to tag them...which I wasn't. I'm going to start over...

I'm going to be sharing #SouthernGothic images / music for the next two weeks. So, heads up if that's not your thing. It will all be over by May 16th.

was reading about usenet and the history of email systems and found this usenet simulator that has a ton of weird old content from who knows when that you can explore in its original form

I have no mercy or compassion in me for a society that will crush people, and then penalize them for not being able to stand up under the weight.

Format a USB stick and encrypt it > use Firefox > create new user profile > create folder for profile on the USB stick > USB stick and password are required before opening Firefox > data is kept off the computer > data is also portable. Good idea?
I got Ungoogled Chromium working with extentions. I prefer Firefox, but this is pretty nifty. If you go into chrome://settings/ you can add tab grouping features. Seriously should be standard in browsers.
Getting my shit together, back to tooting!

I posted this 1918 Space Opera to peertube yesterday.
I might Deoldify it today and see what happens.
It's a pretty interesting film, in that it seems to visually inform the style of a lot of scifi that came after it, it was made durring WWI, released in the early days of the 1918 flu pandemic, etc.
It's a pretty film, in terms of costuming, set design, cinematography.

The amount of energy people put into defending ignorance and brutality is beyond me.

Whenever government assumes to deliver us from the trouble of thinking for ourselves, the only consequences it produces are those of torpor and imbecility.

racism, anti-racist action, need advice
So apparently racists have this new operation called "It's okay to be white" and the premise is sort of like "straight pride". Where the goal is to get a backlash to make it appear that they're being condemned for actually being white. Best tactic? Mockery?
Anyone else listen to Mission Control on SomaFM to fall asleep?

Too many libertarians esteem wealth more then they cherish liberty.
