its fascinating how everyone talking in response to this (i cross posted it to mastodon and bluesky) is doing it in a way that continues to center rapists. i was hoping maybe we could think for a moment about the millions of people who are silenced from speaking about the rapes they have experienced

@Natouille soutine 🌬🧊🧊
the idea that you can't call people rapists unless they have been convicted of rape is an expectation of silence from nearly all victims. the reason people use it is because silence from victims is their goal

@davidgerard nothing would persuade me to have anything to do with meta / zuckerborg or their/his products
everything they do is designed to harvest your data for them to consildate and sell to the highest bidder, with no scrupples or cares for the damages it does to those using their product, so long as they get richer from it
Seven & I Holdings lifted its profit and sales outlook for the current fiscal year, raising hopes that the convenience-store operator's turnaround efforts are taking hold. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/07/09/seven-profit-outlook-turnaround/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #seveniholdings #seveneleven
@matt Though I understand your needs, you might be better off with a raspberry pi, a storage server (with some 16TB platters), and commercial internet.
Yeah it'll be expensive for about 6 months, then it'll be cheaper, as long as you put up some basic protections like Cloudflare (people might not like it, but it's better than not knowing what you're doing).
@shanie appreciate the advice, but that's too much work when we already have enough sysadmin work to keep us busy, which is why I'm looking for managed hosting.

Your public Instagram photo is now raw material for anyone's AI. Meta's Muse Image remixes public profiles into new images with no consent and no notice. Public Citizen calls it an egregious invasion of privacy and wants Congress to require opt-in first.

I Dated Graham Platner. I Believe Jenny Racicot and Lyndsey Fifield.
Until this week, I was a supporter. I believed he could be the kind of plainspoken, populist progressive “Mamdani for Maine” candidate that our party is starving for.
And I believe Jenny Racicot and Lyndsey Fifield.
I want to leave those two sentences sitting next to each other, because the discomfort between them is the whole point.

@stefan
I keep running into this term and everyone tells me it comed from someplace different… so now every time I run into it, I ask… now am asking:
How did you come to “asterism” as a term?
🖖
@DigitalTaoist I must have missed the part where nora said "I would like a stranger to tell me from a legal standpoint about rape." Do you do this a lot? Lecture strangers on what you think isn't technically rape? If so, maybe stop.
