@skinnylatte @rednikki wow I feel lucky: no fooling around with food, just plump in two syringes full of saline and boom. (Well except for the thing where there as to be 2 of us, one holding the squirmy fur-ball in a towel and the second operating the plunger )

New Stretch Goal!

If we hit $10,000, we’ll print the first edition as a hardcover... and everyone who pledged for a paperback gets one!

Book your copy of THE BLAFT BOOK OF ANTI-CASTE SF on our Kickstarter:

Reverse Hunger games.

Every year, we reap 10 of the 100 wealthiest people to fight to the death. The odds of being chosen are proportional to their net wealth; they can surrender wealth to lower their odds.

The chosen have one week to prepare. If you can afford a giant killer robot, now's the time.

The losers' fortunes are donated to the poorest countries. The winner gets launched into space. If they did very well, they're inside the rocket instead of strapped to it.

@Kalytis je compatis: mon bureau n’est pas fermé mais la SNCF a supprimé tous les trains pour Paris. J’étais heureux, seul sur le quai de la gare.
Ok the world is shitty right now. But we have Michelle Yeoh. (Yes, I’d rather see some new stuff rather than YetAnotherSequel, but one takes what one can)

Oh mais joie de voir que @danslesalgorithmes porté par @hubertguillaud prend forme !

"La société du calcul est là. La transformation numérique est accomplie. Et l’arrivée de l’intelligence artificielle va encore l’étendre et l’accélérer. Nous sommes désormais tous et chacun “dans les algorithmes”. […]Il nous faut donc comprendre ce qui s’est mal passé pour apporter collectivement une grille de lecture et pour adresser les problèmes auxquels la société est confrontée."

I posted about brain cancer and hope to find people to pick up the torch on my accessibility projects that I think could help make the web better. I have a major surgery May 29th and time is short. I will only become less able.

Summaries and links can be found here: https://github.com/alt-text-org/in-need-of-adoption

I'm happy to answer any questions, or just discuss things, but I do ask that kind words on cancer not be posted here, despite my appreciation for them.

Boosts and sharing elsewhere appreciated.

Bon allez Masto on est à deux doigts des 5000 balles. Encore un effort! https://piaille.fr/@Kalytis/112271206962709108

Attaché : 1 image Bon, Masto. Des filles du collège Katia et Maurice Krafft (REP+, que je crois être à Béziers) se sont qualifiées, avec la section minimes (14-15 ans) de leur AS, à la finale du championnat de France de foot en salle. Ils n'ont pas les moyens de les y emmener. Elles et leurs profs ont ouvert une cagnotte, mais ça patine un peu : 750€ en 10 jours, sur 2.500€ minimum, 5.000€ optimal... Est-ce qu'on ne leur montrerait pas la puissance du #Fediverse ? 💪 ICI : https://www.helloasso.com/associations/association-sportive-college-krafft/collectes/en-route-pour-le-championnat-de-france-futsal-minimes-filles

Scientists have further confirmed the discovery of a new (on an evolutionary timescale) nitrogen-fixing organelle in a species of marine algae. The last time this kind of organelle evolved, plants were created. #ShareGoodNewsToo https://fixthenews.com/r/7fb2affe?m=d62c57a4-125a-4b9d-b04d-bdfd23b8627c
Two lifeforms merge in once-in-a-billion-years evolutionary event

Last time this happened, Earth got plants.
