Ich bin #ProAsyl, weil wir eine Mitverantwortung für alle tragen, besonders, weil unsere westliche Außenpolitik für viele Menschen ein Fluchtgrund ist. In einer Zeit, in der Geflüchtete direkt von Neu-Rechten Gruppen angegriffen und indirekt durch Maßnahmen wie die Bezahlkarte noch stärker marginalisiert werden, reicht es nicht, neutral zur Migration zu stehen. Wer glaubt, Migration und Integration seien bloß eine Frage des Geldes, fällt auf Desinformation herein, denn in Wahrheit ist es purer Rassismus, der die „Debatte“ rund um Migration leitet.

Kein Mensch ist illegal, keine Abschiebung richtig, kein Fluchtgrund illegitim.

„My country was burning and the same people who lit the fire now call me illegal.“

Es ist traurig, in einem Land zu leben, in dem es zivilgesellschaftliche Initiativen wie Pro Asyl braucht, um ein grundlegendes Menschenrecht zu verteidigen. Umso dankbarer bin ich, dass es Pro Asyl und den Flüchtlingsrat Niedersachsen gibt. Dank ihnen konnten meine Freund:innen aus Myanmar und den USA ein besseres Leben anstreben.

over the past year or so I've gradually tapered off any slop media I've been consooming, which wasn't difficult because I have also been doing this with internet usage habits in general since 2021 when I left Twitter, and what I've gathered after reaching a point that I only check a few low-intensity feeds lately (fedi, lisp subreddits, lobsters, bsky, a few imageboards sometimes) is that most of the internet in varying ways has a very noticeable decay setting in. I'm not talking about something as simple as the design of the space itself with like ads or captchas or paywalls and banners and whatever like you see on normie web sites; I mean that the users themselves all generally suck the life out of the room. no one has any fun using the internet anymore; everyone is always so serious all the time and never creates anything, only endlessly comments on *other things* ("content") and uses them as a mediating sign to be able to interact with other people. usually this also leads to drama and conflict and every space being full of nazis or wokescold shitlibs, or at the very least everywhere has a homogenized and dead culture based around owning some Other (the libs, the fascists, the proprietary social media platform users, etc) without producing anything of its own. it's all endless discourse and critique without anything new ever being made

anyway, the internet sucks everywhere now except xnfm so we need to make it bigger. total fedi domination by 2030

I have X configured just the way I like, with extensions and configurations to work with my screens, my TV, my VNC preferences, my scripts to switch between external and internal laptop displays, and last I tried Wayland, none of those configurations and scripts worked, and it was generally a step backward, while I was assured it was ready and great. now, there was no point in my wasting my time learning how to do something that I already knew how to do elsewhere, just because someone else expects me to get used to doing things their way, or to keep testing something whose primary interest was in rendering something I liked obsolete, and taking away the possibility of tunneling X through SSH and generally opening windows remotely; I've lived with that for decades, and taking that away is an unthinkable loss. the expectation and attitude that such loss, waste of time and imposing push for experimenting with software that is not even meant to bring me any advantage whatsoever to make up for the losses is just insulting and disrespectful, more so for someone who's neurodivergent (autistic traits such as cognitive rigidity, need for predictability, and fondness of regularity, plus pervasive desire for autonomy AKA pathological demand avoidance), but unfortunately they're all too common in the proprietary software scene. last thing we need in the free software scene is for the authoritarians and the clueless to import more of these horrible traits from their proprietary counterparts, or for people to get used to waste time learning how to get things back working the way they were before someone somewhere thought it was a great idea to push a breaking update onto them. https://blog.lx.oliva.nom.br/2020-03-15-new-dawn is about this not-quite-new social problem we're inheriting but should resist much harder.
