:gimp: For those who missed the news, #GIMP got forked big time:
#Glimpse is the rebranded version. It will also bring changes in other areas of the program (while staying based on GIMP as it evolves of course) https://getglimpse.app/ I wish it didn't come to this but I'm game for switching.
@annika I have a homework day tomorrow, then my next workout is Tuesday. then I have nearly a week off because I'll be at pax, so I'll get to whine more about social exhaustion over physical exhaustion 😂
the newest Philosophy Tube links climate change and colonialism/racism/fascism/capitalism (duh) and roasts ideas like "technology will save us" espoused by the very technologists contributing to this apocalypse
Weird how most "crimes against humanity" are crimes with a finite number of victims, but crimes like fossil fuel profiteering or the destruction of the rainforest, where humanity itself is the victim, aren't actually crimes at all
I spend so much money on my dysphoria- just constantly donating "women's" stuff from my old life and replacing it with equivalent "men's" stuff that makes me happier.
it's like I paid the pink tax once, and now I'm paying that bullshit "FOR MEN!" surcharge where I get the same items, only boxier
@zenhob tekniklr culture is hollering "on your left" then muttering "why the fuck did you stop in the middle of the path" to yourself about the old lady you just passed on your bicycle
Hi trans ladies, if you are scheduling your surgery or waiting for your date, I would love to connect with you. I feel pretty alone in this process and would love to find some folks at a similar point in their transition, whether it's a new group or an existing one.
someone should buy the domain work.sucks and make a way that you can enter in an employer and commit to unionizing. Then whenever a workplace hit a large enough percentage of workers it emails them putting them in touch with the IWW
Starting in middle school I heard from several other students that they would always fight back if someone attacked them. Because even if you did nothing and someone punched you, both students would get the same punishment.
They said, "if you're gonna get suspended anyways, you might as well fight back".
Even at that age they had already learned that the systems of "justice" weren't fair and that they had to protect themselves.
today BIPOC, queer, trans, and disabled comrades were on the front lines. like literally parked their chairs in front of the black bloc to the point the police tried to arrest them in order to get better access to arresting others. the man on the left was arrested. the bravery shown literally brought me to tears and has me reflecting on what it even means to hold the line
seems like portland had a pretty normal one. police escorted fash, beat and shot protestors, and arrested people for just being places, like they do 🤷♀️
PPB also just gave a press conference, though I was unable to stream it. Followup summaries seem to suggest they're shutting down a couple streets and the Hawthorne bridge. Presumably this is to make it harder for bystanders to end up caught in the mess, which in turn makes it a lot easier for cops to kettle & arrest.
It was also a show of force; there will be a _lot_ of cops there this time.
Fun fact: each book scanned for the Internet Archive has a unique identifier, usually the title of the item, or its first 16 characters; the volume number, or 00 if there isn't one; and the first 4 characters of the author. So:
there is a big white nationalist event this saturday in Portland, and there are reports that two queer folx found molotov cocktails sitting in their yards menacingly. stay observant and safe everyone :antifa:

The most frustrating thing about socialization is that trans people can't actually talk about it in a productive way because literally anything we say will be weaponized by transphobes.
Every couple of weeks someone tweets like “Wow so crazy we’re all still going to work in the middle of a mass extinction event” and it goes viral and then we all still go to work the next day
If there wasn’t a video many would think this is unbelievable. Spitting in the general direction of a group of cops (several feet away from them) isn’t a basis for arrest, but that doesn’t stop these Portland cops. twitter.com/feefifofummmm/…
#BETACUCK4LYFE was able to stop American Guard member, Mark Quon from hitting an activist over the head with a hammer and was taken in & charged by cops for his efforts in stopping neo-nazis from harming people. Please help and donate what you can! Pass it on! twitter.com/abereviate/sta…

On Friday, Trump’s Justice Department asked the Supreme Court to rule that sex is based on a person's genitals at birth and that anyone can be fired for wearing clothing or acting in a way that does not conform to conservative gender roles. 1/3

Apple accidentally unpatched a bug it had already fixed and now all up-to-date iPhones are vulnerable to hackers and there's a working jailbreak sitting on Github as we speak
#PDX is what it looks like when a town is under a fascist onslaught being assisted by the state, it’s also a good example of what a community coming together to say no looks like. So proud of my city
im just saying... weird to call city residents a terror group and not the far right groups who have been traveling across state lines regularly for 2 years to commit violence

I cannot wait for more diverse, nondiscriminatory people to run big businesses because I'm tired of questioning if my gas or gym or chicken sandwich hates me.
The only way you can view Antifa as the equivalent threat of white supremacists engaging in daily acts of violence around the country from hate crimes to terrorist acts is if,
OMSI had to have a full fucking lockdown because of the chuds. Luckily the staff was amazing and kept the kids distracted so they didn't know what was going on, but holy cow.
Out of town fascists terrorized a childrens museum today
Time and again, the people of Portland who oppose fascism are the victims of police brutality while white nationalists get a dedicated right-of-way and police escort home.
So, in sum: Proud Boys and a few hundred friends got a very enthusiastic police escort for an un-permitted march, away from the left wing counter protest, across a closed bridge to meet up with American Guard, a Nazi bonehead gang, who embraced them and greeted several by name
It looks like the German translator of the Grandia HD Collection wasn't given enough context… When you miss an attack in battle, it says "FRÄULEIN!" – that's "miss" as in "lady", not as in "didn't hit". *Swings weapon* "UNMARRIED WOMAN!" twitter.com/Chaz_Ashley/st…
Traffic Alert: @PortlandPolice plan to close the Hawthorne Bridge to all users as early as 4 am on Sat., Aug. 17 as a security measure before an anticipated demonstration in Waterfront Park that day. Follow @PortlandPolice for updates on Aug. 17. portlandoregon.gov/police/news/re…
@jaarboss eugenics, the rich living forever and getting more terrible, the poor continuing to be disposable cogs in an uncaring machine, morlocks, eloi
i really don’t know how rich people look at themselves in the mirror knowing they could save the world, but instead they own 800 handbags & the sad thing is she could own all these handbags & still save the world lmao twitter.com/pradaxbby/stat…
We had a bunch of #defcon branded chairs around the chill-out areas, and not all of them made it back. We understand this can happen - just want to make sure they’re having fun and found good homes. If you see one, post a pic so we don’t worry. #defconchairadventures
like, here's a fact: screen readers read your display name before every one of your tweets. that means that if your name has 40 emojis in a row they're hearing Rose Angry Face Rose Hammer and Sickle lesbian Pentagram Trans Flag before your tweet "ate yogurt today"
