The terraforming bots started working on this planet a hundred years before any of us were born. But landing our first colony ship was still a momentous occasion.

Even before the engines finished cooling down, the argument over who would be first to set foot on the world resurfaced. I tuned it out until someone called my name.

“Alex?”

“Hmm?”

“Outside the window. Isn’t that your cat?”

Since #Russia invaded #Ukraine in 2014, its forces have detained and tortured thousands of fighters and civilians. Here, photojournalist Zoya #Shu recounts five years of documenting their stories.

The pictures are haunting. There are portraits of Ukrainian men and women who have spent months and years in Russian captivity: soldiers, civilians, paramedics and volunteers.

Heute habe ich extra Ausschau gehalten nach der Krähe mit dem kaputten Schnabel und sie war wieder da. Sie ist viel schüchterner als der Rest und traut sich nie als erste zu den Erdnüssen, deshalb hab ich ihr dann extra welche hin geworfen, nur für sie. 🥺

Ich schau auf dich, keine Sorge.

Even though the bureaucratic state is perfectly situated to serve the people from below, those in power (particularly those in power who are animated by ideological arguments) choose to warp it with biased appointees. The last place you'll find these "servants of the people" is supporting from below. The image is a translation (originally for personal use), that helps remind me about the purpose of government.

„Hallo, wir würden gerne kurz Ihren Garten nutzen.“

„Öh, okay… wofür?“

„Wir würden einmal gerne mit 3 LKWs, einem Tieflader und einem U-Boot drüber fahren!“

„Sie wollen WAS?!“

„Ihren Garten nutzen. 😊“

Don't call it couch fucking. It's "Sectional Healing."

Guten Morgen, ihr Lieben, 🧡
habt einen wunderbaren Tag! ☀️

Mein gestriger Witz-Ohrwurm für uns hat mich wohl selber umgehauen.
Ich habe eine Nacht hinter mir,
in der ich stundenlang mein grünes Handy (das ich in der Farbe gar nicht besitze) und meinen kl. viereckigen Autoschlüssel (meiner sieht ganz anders aus) gesucht habe.
Eine Katastrophe folgte der nächsten.
Puuhh...!

Nun für euch etwas ruhigeres für die Ohren und gleichzeitig tschüss bis Samstag!

I think I finally caught covid

Heut war anstrengend... Bin erschöpft ... Glaube, gehe besser zu Bette

Gut Nacht und wünsche wohl zu träumen 💤😴

Good gosh, over a quarter of a million dollars raised from Mastodon & the fediverse for Kamala Harris's presidential campaign — and here was me thinking money was tight for everyone & that's why funding for Fediverse software and servers was so low.

I really hope we do a better job at supporting the platform we're all using in the future. Every little bit helps make this a better place.

Edit: All I'm saying if we want the Harris campaign to use the fedi, that also requires financial support

I really don't think Microsoft gets enough hate for not giving security providers the tools necessary to implement EDR capabilities outside of kernel mode. If one company is messing around in your kernel, their software architecture is flawed. If every company is messing around in your kernel, your software architecture is flawed.

Nobody just wakes up one day and goes "you know what would be fun? Maintaining a stable and reliable driver for 500 different versions of the Windows Kernel".

I am not anti-Government per se, I don't just hate & fear the guvmint on principle, I approve big government acting for the benefit of the people, which is of course their intended purpose.

However, when government abdicates its popular role, sells out instead to big business who have a very different view of the people, seeing them as cannon fodder, at best a consumer market & at worst a source of feudal or slave labour, then the government, with its police & military & intelligence becomes a very formidable enemy.

I realise of course that this only happens in foreign countries, not in your democracy where you still have elections every few years, however ...

When was the last time that a change of government made any substantive difference to the decline of your civilisation?

Just imagine a fictitious world where the evil plutocrats had purchased all available politicians likely to be elected.

Would that still be democracy?

Is it still democracy?
