And a further non Finnish interlude: earlier this year I was part of a Dutch documentary about railways called Europa spoort niet

Now there’s a version fully translated into English (or: me without subtitles!) 🙂

It deals with topics of course

Me: Shit is getting real all over the world with this climate thing, record heat, record floods, record hail. People don't understand. It's going to hit everywhere and it's going to hit them. And it's only May.

Also Me: watches hail fall as second power outage of the day hits.

Marcia Luyten: De naaktslak rukt niet zomaar op.
Als de bodem krioelt van het leven, worden de meeste slakkeneitjes opgegeten. Duizendpoten, aaltjes en kevers zijn er dol op. En met dat bodemleven is het dramatisch gesteld.
Als gevolg van te veel stikstof (door te veel mest), te veel bestrijdingsmiddelen en te veel klimaatverandering, zitten in de Nederlandse aarde steeds minder schimmels en bacteriën, bodeminsecten en wormen. Plus zeer nat weer => slakkenplaag.

It may sound/look like I spend a lot of time thinking about the Wrongs of Men, but I really spend more time thinking about the ways that the cishet women around me swallow patriarchy's brainwashing so easily.

That weird woman/tree meme touches on something. Some of us are uncomfortable when the men in our lives share some vulnerability. There was one time an ex quietly mentioned he'd had a time when his consent wasn't respected.

And I was immediately uncomfortable. My gut reaction was to reject what was going to come out of his mouth. And I could tell he was bracing for it.

Instead, I said, I'm sorry that happened. Everyone should have their boundaries respected and she didn't respect yours. Do you want to talk about it?

He didn't. We never talked about it again. From then on, I've been a lot more accepting and empathetic when the men in my life come to me with stories of trauma. The same way I'd be if one of my girlfriends shared their assault story with me.

@DeliaChristina@sfba.social avatar

The narratives the women in my family carry are just as damaging as those carried by the men -- and these aren't gender-specific but they come from patriarchy:

Suffering is to be done in silence.
Emotional vulnerability is weakness.
Self sacrifice for the family.
Respect the hierarchy.

I see these narratives sneak out in conversations with my sister, my dad, about our family history.

Deconstructing or unpacking these veils of untruth can only benefit everyone.

Naw tho, I've done that reading:

“If a white man wants to lynch me, that's his problem. If he's got the power to lynch me, that's my problem. Racism is not a question of attitude; it's a question of power. Racism gets its power from capitalism. Thus, if you're anti-racist, whether you know it or not, you must be anti-capitalist. The power for racism, the power for sexism, comes from capitalism, not an attitude.”

For the past few years, I’ve been running , a tech blog / news publication dedicated to open source, decentralized social communication systems. It’s evolved from a tiny personal blog to something that kind of resembles a news outlet.

This is a musing on my journey, and my hopes on where I can take this thing.

Yes, masks. In 2024. At a tech conference. It’s a beautiful thing.

A fantastic piece prompt by man vs bear...

"Patriarchy has everything to do with men, but at the same time, nothing at all. In a male-centered society where maleness is associated with power, what’s really being centered is power itself. What’s suppressed is mutual relationality. Patriarchy is intertwined with colonialism, racism, and other oppressive social structures based on hierarchy. It is a fundamental fracturing of our human wholeness."

I said “reduce total workload.” What are some thing that accomplish •that•?

“Do we really have the problem we think we have?”

“There’s a simpler way.”

“Work from home!”

“Hmm, I’m going to think about my reader, and edit for clarity and emotional impact before sending this email.”

“We’re willing to pay for experience / expertise.”

“Things are going well. No need for you to stick around!”

“Maybe we don’t need to do this thing anymore. We can just choose not to have this problem.”

This is quite rare - the C root-servers are out of sync with the rest of the world by 3 days. Since that time there have been no changes in the root zone, except for DNSSEC signature updates. It appears all C instances (operated by ) are serving an outdated zone. For now this has no operational impact, but that might change

I cannot stress this enough, the "master plan" for the ruling class here is literally "kill billions of people so we can keep doing capitalism on a boiling planet for perhaps 3 more generations" and literally everything you're struggling to understand stems from that. Why fascism? This. Why AI? Because PEOPLE won't agree, but machines can choose genocide for them. Why police state? Cause you won't go quietly into that good night.

All of it, stems from this.

We are literally out of planet, and either capitalism goes, or a shared biosphere that can support 8B+ people does. And the rich guys who own everything, including your states, have made their choice - this is what that looks like, this is the only possible answer that explains EVERYTHING falling apart around you in the precise way it is. And dawg, you're gonna tell me "that's a conspiracy theory" and I just ain't here for it - capitalism works this way, it's not a "theory" at all.
