Notes to the folks who are scared that Trump's trial(s) will lead to violence by the white supremacists:

The white supremacists want you to be scared, and the white supremacists have already been violent on Trump's behalf.

Fuck the white supremacists. Fuck being scared.

Hey creative people. When you write a post about your work on social media, no need to put in a disclaimer like "shameless self promotion" or to lead with an apology.

1) You made a thing. That's amazing!
2) You're allowed to tell other people about the thing you made.
3) You're even allowed to say it's for sale.

You're not forcing your message on anyone - especially not here, where there's no algorithm - and you're not manipulating anyone, or lying to anyone, or spamming anyone.

You made a thing, it's available for sale. No need for apologies or guilt about letting us know.

seeing some new faces here! welcome. here are the ground rules:
- there are none. there is no “using it wrong”.
- use content warnings however you want (or not at all)
- ignore tone policing. it can get a bit much, so…
- …if someone gives you the ick, block ‘em.

our time is short and valuable — there’s no point in spending some of it letting some dude hound you in replies for not calling Twitter “the bird site”. that guy sucks.

enjoy your stay besties ☺️✌️✨

My personal crusade against the "minimized keyboard accessory" control for iPadOS continues.

Today's example: I wanted to create a new folder in the Notes app, but I couldn't because that thing was covering the button. 😡

i feel that when people talk about social media, phones, and other technologies being harmful because of dopamine something, this is done in part to avoid looking at the needs that are filled by their use

"dopamine" as a thought terminating concept
