Arts & culture and memes. Internet nostalgia and future. You know me, I've always thrown out such a jazzy line.

Apropos of several things floating across my TL, I just want to say as somebody who teaches college:

Yes, absolutely, politically conservative students on campus end up feeling uncomfortable in their views, constantly challenged. 100%.

So do leftists.

So do centrists.

So do students who attempt to be apolitical.

Nobody gets to hang out on campus feeling comfortable and cushy in their worldview. That is…you know…kind of the point of the place.

The ascent and corruption of Elon Musk’s soul is a microcosm of tech as a whole.

He went from focus on humanity sized problems like weaning off of fossil fuels and space exploration to being focused on dominating others and preservation of his immense wealth like a dragon guarding a treasure horde.

The tech industry has given up on even paying lip service to the idea of “changing the world” and instead the focus is maximizing shareholder value. Both at startups and public tech companies.

My husband gets upset whenever I call him a short king because he's not into monarchies.

The Atlantic has published an English translation of Claude Malhuret's speech. This powerful speech was widely cited in recent days on Mastodon, so here it is in full as a gift link.

Is there a Fediverse alternative to Pinterest? Like I understand Pinterest out of all the Social Media isn't as bad but it would be cool to have a similar layout to Pinterest on the Fediverse.
