I spent most of a decade traveling to authoritarian countries and teaching people how to circumvent internet censorship. I am appalled that this is now something I have to do in the US.

The report is the latest indictment of America’s broken healthcare system.

I’ve been trying out Bluesky, but I just can’t get into it.
It doesn’t have the same vibe or interactions that Mastodon has - it’s a bit of a peculiar place tbh, kinda like a Stepford Wives place 😑

Your weekly Sunday reminder: Your religion prevents YOU from doing things, not others. Keep that mumbo-jumbo shit to yourself.

Here endeth the sermon 🤭

A Christian family member just posted an apology to God that the opening Olympics ceremony used an image of da Vinci's Last Supper. I've never once seen her apologize for most American Christians supporting a lying, unethical, dangerous, narcissistic, adulterer who violates every tenet of her faith.

I do not understand faith that is obsessed with the meaningless and not the vital. Stop obsessing over symbols and start raising your voice about what matters in our spiritual and physical world.

Woke up today to news that ‘Christians’ are ‘outraged’ about the drag depiction of the Last Supper at the Olympics. Strange how there’s no outrage about all the child sexual assaults within the church’s ranks.
Guess it’s all about ‘priorities’ 🤷

hate when a job asks you to set "goals"

my only "goal" is to remain employed so that I can continue to pay for my living expenses while finding fulfillment in the areas of my life unrelated to a day job
