As a former Catholic, I was just informed I’m considered “Catholic Adjacent”. Aka “dropped the God but kept the Jesus, and doesn’t believe saying some magic words will be a cheat code to salvation”.

Doesn’t matter what you say I guess. They’ll never see you as anything else.

But like if you believe “people matter” and “be excellent to each other” that’s teeing you up for membership to lots of basic religions.

“We shall repeal the twentieth century”: That’s how self-identified “radical reactionary” Murray Rothbard described the Right’s vision in 1992.

This really is the core goal of the radical Right: Roll back whatever racial and social progress has been achieved over the past century and a half.

Not a bad day to read up on Stanislav Petrov, for no particular reason.

A leaked transcript reveals Viktor Orban eagerly offering to assist Vladimir Putin, comparing himself to a helpful "mouse" serving the Russian "lion." During the call, the two leaders praised Donald Trump and discussed a failed plan to host a US-Russia summit in Budapest. This stark evidence of close coordination with the Kremlin emerges just days before a highly competitive national election, intensifying scrutiny over Orban's continued obstruction of EU aid to Ukraine.

here's a free idea: RAM shortage jam, where you have to make a game for a system with low RAM capacity. like maybe less than 128mb or something

edit: OOM jam is a much better name than what i came up with https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@aeva/116362518081235814

@eniko "oom jam" has a nice ring to it

I caught a Tom Steyer ad in which he promised to ban social media for kids under 16. Instead of holding social media companies accountable for addicting everyone (not just kids) with their products, he’s embracing surveillance and the industry that profits from it, and locking kids out of a means of communication with their peers.

I guess the billionaire is a billionaire after all.

@tagesschau die einfachste Lösung ist es, den ÖPNV ticketfrei zu machen. Private Strassennutzung mit Auto braucht auch kein Ticket. Ticketfrei im ÖPNV würde Geld für Automaten (kaufen/abstempeln) und Personal sparen - mal abgesehen von all den positiven Effekten auf die Umwelt und aktuell die Entlastung beim Tanken und Verminderung beim Ölverbrauch. Also wo ist das Problem? Moment… ach ja, es verdient kein Lobbyist daran und es fördert nicht das Auto. Na dann, schade 🤷‍♀️🤓 #verkehrswende

Extremely hard to like “work” and pretend that anything matters right now. But I dunno. I guess this is a thing.

It’s not like the world initiated a general strike during the bay of pigs or any other time during the Cold War. A simple “fuck this mess” type of thing.

We just keep toiling away. Ok. 👌
