Fuck Eurovision. Fuck Israel. Fuck Zionism. Fuck settler colonialism. Fuck apartheid. Fuck ethnic cleansing. Fuck genocide.

(And if you’re more concerned by my language than with the injustices it decries then fuck you too.)

Ένα περίεργο πράγμα ρε παιδιά, ενωτικά το ΚΚΕ αν έρθεις μαζί τους, αν πεις πάμε από κοινού παθαίνει κοκομπλόκο και σε αποκαλεί πιόνι του συστήματος.

Μη ειρωνικά, αυτό το φαινόμενο Βίκτορ-Βικτόρια ξέρουμε από πού πηγάζει ακριβώς;

Information Must be Analyzed.

“An analysis of IDF [Israel’s army] operational systems indicates that a barrage of rockets was fired by terrorists in Gaza, passing in close proximity to the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza at the time it was hit,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a social media post."

“Intelligence from multiple sources we have in our hands indicates that Islamic Jihad is responsible for the failed rocket launch which hit the hospital in Gaza.”

Israeli military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told reporters rockets fired by Hamas the PIJ passed by the hospital at the time of the strike, which he said hit the facility’s parking lot.

Just noting that "Stand With Israel" and "Free Palestine" have different meanings to different people and it is a good idea to figure out how someone interprets those phrases before getting mad at them for saying or not saying them.

In a real country, such comically corrupt people like Gabriel would be ashamed to be seen in public. I wish we had one of those.

Two great tastes that taste great together: Medium's craptacular JavaScript (a blog page that pegs an entire CPU core!) and Signal's craptacular Electron app:

On the plus side, I finally heard my MacBook Pro's fans for the first time in months.

This is rich, coming from IBM: https://twitter.com/maximilianhils/status/1680193548212228097?s=46&t=u6IW5ZeTxOOP5ybPek9GoQ (don't hate on the employee though).

Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones (at the rebuilder communities).

The verb to post on Threads is “throot”?

Obvious that the platform is doomed, you can only have serious conversations with toots and skeets.

@Gargron I think it's really bad form for notifies to announce how many followers a new follower has. The whole ethos here is supposed to focus on quality not quantity. Many people will see 1 or 2 followers, and not bother to read the profile. It's a toxic metric, imo.

Someone leaked the Instagram Threads.apk Android app

https://we.tl/t-fW32yvGqdx

I unpacked it and now I am looking though the included files. I don't know too much about the structure of Android apps but there is a ton of insight into what its final form will look like just be exploring the contents...

I wonder what the acronym for "All Colors Are Beautiful" also stands for

A friend of mine told me he goes to Twitter for politics.

I thought suffering another heart attack because of stress is not in my five-year plan.

Mastodon is a healthier community. The whole Fediverse is.
