I'm going to start volunteering more. I have time and people need that time.

There's no way this had any affect. I like the sentiment but it won't work.

It shouldn't be my responsibility to train their stupid software. Fuck the Internet. I miss 2007 Internet with Geocities, angelfire, xanga, Live journal and Myspace. Back in the day I had like 10 favorite sites I would visit daily. Now, the whole freaking Internet is delivered through maybe 4 apps owned by billionaires that actively want to harm us for selfish gain. I'm sure it was bad back then too, but at least we didn't funnel the entire Internet through a handful of private companies.

I'm not here to discuss how we need to be ethical in response to a fascist takeover. So we gotta play by the rules but they don't?

Exactly. Usually to fire someone justly for a reason like this, the employer needs a trail of documented incidents, feedback, and coaching. There needs to be an effort by the employer to provide opportunity and resources to improve conduct. Then if the employee does not follow through or continues to show less than adequate performance, there is a better case for termination

If they can't be openly gay and comfortable in their own skin, no one can be. I fucking hate Republicans.

I don't know anyone IRL that uses the fediverse. They just use everything else and then complain it's all owned by billionaires

I mean I feel like we're paying attention to that too? I mean we can read more than one kind of article in a day. Everything you said seems pretty well understood to me
