Also, I've switched from Signal to Molly (https://molly.im) as part of my experiment in "how long can I get away with not installing Google Play Services on #GrapheneOS?"
Weirdly, the only app which absolutely refused to work without Google Play Services so far is BrainFM (https://brain.fm)
Happily, I've discovered brain.fm has a web player which I can install as a shortcut

“As we consider these three risks, we don’t have to speculate about how AI data centers might affect Massachusetts. Consider Ireland, a country with a similar population size, where AI has driven a data center boom. Warehouses full of servers are on pace to use one-third of Ireland’s electricity, drawing from fossil-fuel power plants and wind farms alike. That keeps old, dirty plants on the grid, sucks up renewable energy that otherwise would help replace fossil fuels, and drives up costs for everyone. The Irish pay among Europe’s highest electric bills.”

Look guys I know this seems bad but I think it's important to keep things in perspective. Yes, we are now at the point where a random drunken middle aged man with an ICE badge can follow your daughter into the women's bathroom at a fucking Denny's or whatever and wave his loaded gun in her face for no reason. But on the other hand, two trans volleyball players won't be able to play volleyball with their friends. TWO. In the entire country.

So, you're saying I get bonus points for being so old I misread it? #winning
Fediverse Fabulous Fun Farm!
Hey there, fans of fun, it's time for the new sensation that's sweeping teh internets.
It goes a little like this, and I think you're going to like it:
Player A sets up a joke.
Everybody else is Player B just by completinging the joke in the thread.
Everybody ready?
Here's your first joke premise:
John Mastodon, Nicole the Fediverse Chick, and a Demon Core walk in to a bar...
Go!

@dangillmor It’s only a ‘no win’ situation for #Disney because “the notion that choosing integrity means losing” is automatically interpreted to mean “the notion that choosing integrity means losing (money).”
We can #SaveAmerica if more people stop associating #winning with making more #money.
also in #winning: the "merit review" is a ton of work and raises don't keep up with cost of living
