for once I find myself agreeing with Joe Walsh... we need to keep on message & focus on solving our own issues with our own wannabe king. one of the primary curses of "the Left" is muddied messages.

I'm going to play with some Emacs keybinds while trying to see if I can figure out how to make Peertube's code do a thingy @ozoned wanted over at https://cast.samsai.eu/ in about 15 minutes. I am going to be flailing around a lot because I am not super comfy with these Emacs keys yet and have never had a look at the Peertube codebase either. But maybe it's educational in some weird way. See you in the chat!

I'd like recommendations for a Europe-based dynamic DNS provider, please!

I've been with freedns.afraid.org for about eight years, and they've been rock-solid and good value at $60 per year, but it's time to cut my remaining ties with US-based services.

Please boost for reach!

Hey! Today I'm launching Tiled Words, my own unique spin on the daily word puzzle genre.

You can play Tiled Words for free on any device here: https://tiledwords.com

Tiled Words merges tile-placing board game mechanics with crosswords. You rotate and rearrange tiles to find clues and rebuild a broken crossword. Every day there will be a new, hand-crafted, themed puzzle for you to solve.

Today I'll be showcasing the game at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo with the Portland Indie Game Squad, so if you're in the neighborhood, come say hi!

This game has been a labor of love. Please share it with your friends and check back tomorrow for a new puzzle

@topofmyvoice

I think a better question is, "How do we regain their trust?"

People severely underestimate how much distrust the Biden admin sowed by participating in the Gaza genocide, lying about it, and cracking down on pro-🇵🇸 student protestors. Not to mention the treatment they received by regular Dem voters online and IRL.

That's why Kamala lost, and that's why GenZ roll their eyes at #NoKings.

The Dem party at large needs to do a lot of soul-searching and fence-mending first.

@StillIRise1963 I'm sure you know it, but for anyone who doesn't, here's the Toni Morrison quote on this:

CNN: We document 100+ U.S. Citizen children abandoned because the Trump regime deported their parents

ProPublica: We document 170 cases of ICE arresting and torturing U.S. Citizens, almost all of Latino ethnicity

Northwestern University: We studied 150 years of data and it proves that immigrants have ALWAYS had lower crime rates than U.S. citizens

The Trump regime is a fascist and racist regime enacting structural eugenics. No one is safe because fascism never stop at one demographic.

Also we find out Max knows a surprising amount about the Amish.

Opinion: "…not just how you campaign and which outlets you talk to, though. Successful campaigns must prioritize producing content. One thing successful content creators will tell you about excelling in the world of digital attention is that there’s no penalty for quantity. No one checks your percentages — only your total numbers. You need to always be posting if you want a better chance of things going viral… meet the most disengaged and youngest voters where they are."

TO ALL THE #NoKings NAYSAYERS

there’s always folks like you who crave the negative attention. maybe try counseling instead.

these protests act as containers for all the grievances people hold against the status quo. they have people protesting #ICE #transphobia #techbros #billionaires #christofascism #zionism #genocide #misogyny #racism because they are all connected.

oh, you just wanted your one special interest represented? today is a safe day to go protest about it. go out there & do it.
