    @maaikees@sw-development-is.social I&#39;m just going to say this: literally none of my coworkers look like that. I guess early Python developers had more time to go to the gym.

    @evacide@hachyderm.io I also want to point out that to &quot;zero out crime&quot;, as the Ring CEO called it, may sound desirable, but only police states have zero crime. In an open and free democratic society there is always an inevitable base floor of crime.

    Opened my California primary ballot today and saw this wall of names. This is just for the governor -- there are more pages for the other items. #uspol #California #primaries #governor

    @amiserabilist @LRRRonEarth I&#39;m vegetarian, so I have to stick to lab-grown roadkill raccoon penis. It&#39;s almost indistinguishable from the real thing!

    @alice@lgbtqia.space I too started on a Minolta 35mm, a second hand fixed lens range finder. I got it when I was 13. I still have it. @oddtail@meow.social

    @DarlavdRiet@mastodon.nl @johnmwildlife@mastodon.social that is a nuthatch. Both fascinating birds. We don&#39;t have exactly the same species here, but we do have nuthatches and the occasional brown creeper (similar to the tree creeper). One goes down the tree, the other up.

    @obscurestar@mastodon.social @benroyce@mastodon.social Zarathustra is easy to read, difficult to understand. Not for the simple minded. Ayn Rand, for example, should never have read it.

    @benroyce@mastodon.social Does anyone actually own cats? I&#39;ve had several and I&#39;ve never been in denial about the direction of the ownership relationship. Except maybe gingers - some of those definitely have no concept of... well anything really.

    @aSweetGentleman@mstdn.social @blogdiva@mastodon.social I disagree with updating these books. It wasn&#39;t a different time, it is racist now, it was racist then. You were just less likely to get called out on it, is all. They knew what they were doing. Keep the books as they are, so they remain a record of how people have been treated. But don&#39;t give them to kids anymore - consign them to history just like those awful blackface dolls that still occasionally surfaced when I was a kid.

    @VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social We need to reclaim patriotism. Patriotism is helping your community, it&#39;s making your country a better place for its people and its neighbors. Every time I meet a teacher, I thank them for their service.

    @blogdiva@mastodon.social yep: they&#39;re not even buying RAM, just RAM futures, creating an artificial scarcity that drives up prices for their competition (ie. us, ordinary human beings).
