A reminder that it's been a full week since DHS put out a press release claiming TEN CARS ambushed one of their agents, and have since charged ZERO of those alleged 10 drivers, arrested ZERO of those alleged 10 people, filed ZERO reports of alleged property damage, & have offered ZERO evidence of their claim.

I'm old enough to remember while filing false police reports was a felony.

Corporate media has done nothing to demand answers or hold accountable the abject lies from the Trump regime.

Well this is admirably concise and direct by Germany's justice ministry.

"Chat control without cause must be taboo in a state governed by the rule of law. Private communication must never be under general suspicion."

THANK YOU. Without Germany's support, Chat Control is dead in Council. For now at least.

Some serious introspection now needed by DG HOME for its antidemocratic draft law and illegal lobbying.

Dear everyone who is currently working on a Thing,

Whatever that Thing may be, Good luck with the Thing.

You can do it. You will succeed. You just have to do it.

Best wishes,

Apparently theres a new wave of people joining mastodon, and with them a new wave of self-appointed cops "welcoming" them with long lists of mostly fictitious "rules" they need to follow.

This is a social media platform, with many different ways to use it. It's fine. Mostly, just try to be decent to other people, just like you should try to be everywhere else.
