Honest question for white people that don't consider themselves racist:

White nationalists have been vocal about their attacks on DEI. These are literally the same people that talk about Charlottesville, Jan 6th, and ethnic cleansing.

They've laid out exactly how they plan to destroy DEI.

  1. Make false claims that DEI is about giving unqualified Black people an unfair advantage

  2. Work with racist politicians to use this as a pretext to make all DEI programs illegal.

@mekkaokereke I’ve started attending our org’s Black Empowerment Network meetings (with permission) to demonstrate some pasty-faced solidarity.

And let me tell you, they have their shit ORGANIZED and FOCUSED. They are on a mission and it’s freakin’ powerful to see.

The Attack Turkey

this morning on the run i got to the top of the hill and was resting, bc i'm out of shape, and off in the distance i see a bird trotting my way

as it gets closer i realize it's a turkey. it had a big red gobbler and its neck was iridescent. It was actually really pretty, so i just watched as it approached

@kellogh collapsible batons may be a good choice if you want to carry some defense.

But they’re dinosaurs that understand social hierarchy. Establish dominance like you did by whacking it with a stick and he’ll learn.

@kellogh FWIW, geese and peacocks are both used as guard animals for this sort of thing.

I NEED to know the inside baseball on Embracer, which had a strategy that made so much sense on paper

but now seems to be nothing more than arson of the games industry and its own capital

Interest rate shifts blew up the economics of the deal? Simple coke binging? What IS this?

A dead-end tech company job was destroying my mental health. I HAD to bounce to prevent another round of long-term burnout setting in. I could already feel it nipping at the edges of my mind.

Keeping my mental health AND insurance for the household costs roughly as much as the mortgage each year. It's quite a burden.

Still, burnout is far more expensive by comparison.

@danilo @Elucidating Good health insurance is basically the only reason I went into the corporate world.

Just think of all of the shareholder value I’ve delivered because I’m bound by health care peonage.

Someone in my friends slack left our politics channel because we are pro voting. They felt that being around anyone openly pro voting was to be subjected to being shamed for being antivoting. They are part of the "Biden is "pro genocide" so I won't vote at all" group.

There's so much there I just don't get, but not being willing to talk to your allies about your tactics is the top of the list.

@qkslvrwolf Must be nice to be so comfortable and insulated from the consequences of one’s own actions that they can abscond from even the most basic of actions.

@thomasfuchs The closest you might get within the next decade are in-yard hostlers. Drop your trailer in a transfer area, let the autonomous hostler pick it up and put it on a door from there.

And despite some flashy startup videos, we most definitely aren’t there yet.
