Ich denke oft drüber nach, welche Filme und Fotos ich ohne #CW weiter geben kann. Bilder von unfassbaren Leid, Schmerzen, Panik, Angst... empfindungsfähiger Lebewesen.

Nachdem ich jetzt xx mal von Karnisten die Rechtfertigung, dafür dass sie weiter Tierleidprodukte konsumieren, gehört habe:

"Staatliche Stellen, das Veterinäramt oder sogar die Bauern untereinander würden schon darauf achten, dass es den Tieren gut geht."

Werde ich mehr davon Posten, Zeigen wie es den #Ausnutztiere n geht. Information ist in einer Demokratie unverzichtbar um verantwortungsvolle Entscheidungen zu treffen.
"Ich kann mir das nicht ansehen, das ist zu grausam" aber weiter Konsumieren, ist verantwortungslos und widerlich.

Der Betrieb in #Dießen Ammersee auf dem vor kurzem 80 Ziegen verhungert und verdurstet sind, war Teil eines Biohofes auf dem sich gern Politiker haben ablichten lassen, um zu zeigen wie toll doch unsere Bauernhöfe sind.

New #blog post: A Time-Traveler's Guide to Affordable Computing

1467 words

Ok, I heard some fair complaints about my schlocky previous post, and this one is much more serious. Ok, what am I saying?? It's straight-up sci-fi comedy with a retrocomputing subject matter, but I took it seriously.

Initially, I was inspired by CJ's wonderful blost about his transition from being a long-term mac user to now daily-driving Linux, and wanted to share my own experiences as a long-term Mac user over nearly two decades, with a decade and a half separating the two times. But then my internal Sotolf mental processes went off and reminded me of how elitist and anti-common-person / anti-consumer / anti-human Apple was, and I went in a very different direction.

I hope y'all enjoy the humor. :D

Minor #CW: some of the humor is of a USPOL nature. It's very light, humor and presentation-wise, but the implications are pretty dark, if you take it seriously (which you're not intended or likely inclined to!)

Continued thread

#CW Damaged vehicle

Since some folx asked for pics, here are a couple just for posterity. I got some during a visit to the lot to retrieve the rest of the belongings from inside. The ones from the incident have too many faces.

I'll reiterate that everyone came out of it okay as far as I'm aware.

@gregly

This was discussed extensively in the #Mastodon #Github some (now) years ago

By allowing a third party to add a #CW to an existing, published post after the fact, it allows the new editor to completely invert the meaning of the original post by adding a label that is the inverse of the original content

Whether some individual "apps" allow it is irrelevant

And yeah, also see #QuotePosts

I personally believe that most effective way to speed up CW receiving is by practicing ICR (Instant Character Recognition). This method has had the largest effect on my receiving. Even short practices seem to have noticeable effect.

I previously released iOS App for this and now it is available as web based. Remember to use physical keyboard!

Go a head and try it! Post your results too!

#CW: talk of abuse, control, and food.

This morning at breakfast my partner apologized for leaving the heel* of the bread loaf for me, and I was reminded of how much my ex used to control my eating.

*there was another loaf thawing, so I could have easily eaten that instead of the heel.

I used to get a "talking-to" for:
- eating the last of anything my ex might want.
- not eating the last of anything my ex didn't want.
- asking for things I wanted (like Swiss cheese**).
- cooking something for myself that they liked.
- cooking something for myself they didn't like.
- not cooking things just the way they liked.
- eating "too much".
- being "too thin".

**earlier in my relationship with my current partner, while we were at the grocery store, they asked if there was any cheese I wanted. I said "I like Swiss" as I broke down crying, following up with "but I'm not really allowed to get it".

My current partner is amazing, and my ex is my ex for a lot of good reasons, and I'm happy-sad crying a bit this morning, and I just want anyone who this list resonates with to know they aren't alone—that's abuse, plain and simple—and you can get out too.

Here's some info on coercive control (just ignore the ad for BetterHelp, because fuck them):
