Blame it on the autism, but when I cannot begin to understand other people's motivation my brain just grinds to a halt and SCREAMS.

I get a lots of ads for ""musicians"" on my Instagram. Probably more than the average person because I click on them due to morbid curiosity and "for research" and it just gets worse because I never get any damn answers.

Half of them are AI to start with, so there's that…

The rest? Jesus fucking damn. Some of us have had music in our bones since we were born and we've been chasing this dream to the point of self-destruction while a burning world tries its best to finish us off.

These "singer songwriter" girls? I just don't understand it. My best guess is they have tits + long blond hair + money so being a "singer" is just another flavor of influencer grift. They think it makes them special. And their desperation for attention makes the rest of us who actually want to be recognized for skill and authentic vulnerability look bad. These are the girls "doing it for the fame."

And if they even HAVE a website or bio, which the majority DON'T, it never SAYS anything. WHY did they get into music? No clue. It's literally nothing but hollow buzzwords like "powerful" and "emotional" and "soulful"… (I am issuing a swift kick in the pants to every fucking "artist" who puts the words "soulful vocals" into their bio)… AND IT JUST DOESN’T MEAN ANYTHING. How and why am I supposed to care about your "music" if YOU don't even give enough of a shit to specifically TELL ME ABOUT IT and why it matters to you?!

I hate this timeline.

The point is that the person I'm replying to is bringing to the "fediverse" the
very worst of Twitter.

Her
entire usage of the Fediverse seems to amount to emphatically writing, in the #most #vapid #sort #of #language, about how she's... using the Fediverse to write about how she's using the Fediverse to share about how she's using the Fediverse to...

...ah, right: to escape from (and I quote) "the
#broligarchy" and "right-wing #haters".

One would not suspect an ulterior motive, were it not for the fact that, according to her WIkipedia page, she "is the founder and editor-in-chief of a now-defunct website that aims to provide 'positive role models' for young girls" and founded "a platform empowering companies and organizations with innovative tools to measure the gender gap", as well as having self-produced a "documentary about the marketing of unattainable beauty ideals around the world" so maybe it's a bit of a serial thing?

I didn't want the Internet and I certainly don't want the Fediverse to be captured by this kind of individual.

In other words, I think the individual in question is a very refined sort of (political) spammer and profiteer.

I would ordinarily just ignore the post, but renotes occasionally catch me off-guard.

I do apologise for that, a grownup ought to be able to ignore.

"It's easy to come up with simplistic slogans [rather than] carefully thought through ideas" said #ChrisPhilp on today's #BBCLauraK in reference to how #Reform operates

Does anyone remember all these slogans he himself once used, though?

"Get Brexit Done"
"Take back control."
"No deal is better than a bad deal,"
"Let's go WTO,"
"The will of the people"
"Brexit means Brexit"

Hi modern #mobileDevelopment folks!

We're looking at removing #firebase as a provider for managing server sent push notifications to apps on #android and #iOS

Ideally, we'd have something we could run on our own servers rather than relying on third parties (we want to limit sub-processors in terms of #gdpr ).

Seems like recommendations online are dated at best...

How would you do this today?
