I am an unpaid volunteer who runs five websites and five accounts helping people use Mastodon and the wider Fediverse. These cause bills every month which I pay.

If you want to help these sites & accounts keep going, you can buy me a coffee:

Alternatively, become a patron:

All support very greatly appreciated! 🙂

For some companies it's self-review time, so here's a useful tip for giving feedback about your coworkers:

If you're asked to give feedback about a coworker, ALWAYS sing their praises like they're the greatest person you've ever worked with.

Yes, even that annoying, arch-conservative, gossipy, lazy and confused, less than useless coworker is going to get 5 stars from you. Why? Because performance reviews are bullshit designed to pitch workers against each other.

Happy May Day!

Yeah, it feels like that.

So to sum up the Wisconsin arrest issue:

ICE didn't have a juridical warrant. They only had an administrative warrant.

The DOJ has not convened a grand jury to indict the judge. They only got a criminal complaint before a magistrate judge.

This is ridiculous.
