It's 2032. All major smartphone brands incorporate a small amount of explosives, enough to blind someone or blow their hand off, for emergency use on Bad Guys. Non-explosive phones are still available for purchase, but they're not as neat, and the app you use to pay your transit fares won't run on them. And besides, you're not a Bad Guy, are you?
leaving a discord as they plan to discuss a paul graham article and well, i'd rather go to the numerologist convention to talk about seeing faces in analogue-tv static

Y'all are incredibly comfortable being racist on here in a way I haven't seen elsewhere, while lecturing us about how if we tweak this one thing the racism disappears.

I'm spending my time combing through those calling @KimCrayton1 the N word & those who reported her to us for essentially making white people feel bad. The best is the one who reported this post by her: "Good ol’ Mastodon I’ve NEVER been called NIGGER more than I have TODAY"

Find Black women talking about racism offensive huh?

I just defederated from nationalist (dot) social. I would have done it based on the name alone, but of course it also contains all of the Nazi garbage that one would expect.

Musks daughter gave an interview where she torched him. Now we know it wasn't Grimes leaving him for Chelsea Manning, it was her coming out that motivated his descent into right-wing brain rot. His hatred for trans people started at home. This story is sadly very familiar to a lot of trans people.

It’s been a minute since I have been in the #mastodon world.

I was diagnosed with stage 2 grade 2 clear cell renal carcinoma. I’m 32 years old and soon to be 33. I was given the “go home and don’t come back convo” from my oncologist which is great.

My first scans on May 31st were clean, and my next ones are October 31st. Would love to connect with other #cancer folks here if there are any.

If this doesn’t apply to you, that’s fine, but boost if you can ❤️👏🏻❗️

Some extremely exciting news: Google Fonts is funding four developers from the open source community to work on Rust UI in 2024. Goals include demonstrating extremely high performance, using Vello for GPU-accelerated 2D rendering, and a port to Android.

All the work is in the open, and we look forward to working with others in the Rust UI ecosystem.

More details here: https://linebender.org/blog/xilem-2024/ I'm excited about what we'll build together!

Started an X-Files rewatch, but was struck by an uncomfortable thought:

Where was Fox Mulder on January 6th?

Hell yes, #TrueDetective: Night Country. First episode does a lot of establishing, but it doesn't get clunky, the characters are great, the mystery compelling, it's nice and creepy, there are parts that have #TwinPeaks vibes, a hot sex scene, and the supernatural adjacent elements are back with a vengeance. Also, I expected #BillieEilish, but not that #TheUnthanks song I first heard in the folk horror documentary. I'm definitely on board for this.
