Forgive my lack of empathy for a rich person with multiple homes during a housing crisis who has to pay exorbitant homeowner's insurance to live in a flood zone he chose to create with his local/state politics.
This is like a person with two homes who wants to live in the one in the desert complaining about the power cost of running the air conditioner.
Yesterday morning, I looked out the window & went out to take a landscape photo but this caught my eye. #photography#roses#dew#gardening@gardening This is the only blooming rose in the rose garden at the moment Ingrid Bergman.
"The flipside of the post World War 2 cries of 'never again!' was an unspoken 'never before.'" - Naomi Klein on deliberately overlooked parallels between the Holocaust and #genocode of indigenous and Black peoples.
As I recently heard it put, it's not that what the Nazis did to the Jews was either the largest or the first, it was that it was the first time it really showed what people would do to their neighbors if they had the permission and urging to do so.
#Mastodon is actually turning into quite the interesting phenomenon, almost like the social media version of Doom. It's fascinating to see how people are pushing the boundaries and making it work on all sorts of devices!
Just recently, there's been a Mastodon client developed specifically for Apple II, and surprisingly, it's quite impressive. Almost all the features you'd expect on Mastodon are there; from viewing timelines and receiving notifications to even creating content warnings. The only things missing at the moment are bookmarks and polls, but I have a feeling they'll be added in no time. It's genuinely an impressive endeavor!
Who knows what will come next? I'm personally excited to see if someone manages to make Mastodon work on a Texas Instruments Ti-99/4A Ti-84 calculator. Now that would be something truly remarkable! 😉
