Question. I need to merge the contents of a dozen of archive mail folders into one. I was planning to do that with Thunderbird over IMAP, but it feels fragile, and I'm wondering if there's a better way? I do have access to the Maildir directory on the server.

Thoughts?

Likewise with terfs. I thankfully haven't seen anyone unknowingly RT those accounts but I found that browser plugin Shinigami Eyes pointless because they're way less subtle than marble bust guys making propaganda for normies and often explicitly self-labeled.

Then again, I was looking through a list of mastodon instances and immediately clocked "Spinster" for what it was based on the URL alone, so...

Do you have a favourite exoplanet? I do: TRAPPIST-1e.

It's an eyeball planet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeball_planet

It doesn't have a day/night cycle nor seasons. Only permanently-hot and permanently-cold-and-dark sides, with a never ending sunset and extreme winds in between.

I'm always surprised when people don't immediately clock accounts like "The Cultural Tutor" on twitter as fascist.

I feel less attuned to the nuances of online subcultures than I was like 10-15 years ago but these guys are a perennial strain and they stand out like neon to me

• A wallpaper version of my Kinetic Kudu illustration - https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Kinetic-Kudu-933747978. - An energetic Kudu jumping for a portrait in warm and firey colors. Build out of highly dense energy. If you take a close look you will see lots of smaller kudus in action showing up by following the movement looking like ancient cave paintings. Inspired by the Ubuntu release name 22.10.
