If you could somehow write your Mastodon posts directly in #Vim (or Emacs, or any text editor of your choice), that would be *very* cool. Maybe there's a way, but I don't know what it is or would be.
A bit late for #caturday but wanted to check if looping video works. This is Annie and she has things to say

Me: [spouting off about DEI on a board call] blah blah blah
Benson: [jumping on top of me and lunging across the screen to eat the last bite of chicken salad]
Me: [going off camera but not mute] GOTdammit! That was my salad! Oof! Leave it! Stop! Down! GAH. Fine! Take it! You DOG!
I love him and hate him.
This is why I'm drinking a Black Manhattan right now.

The Supreme Court made up a fairy tale and used it to deny services to gay couples. What will the Supreme Court make up next? I don't know, but I know what the bigots will try to do next.

The internet is not so different from the television set, Laurel. If you don't like what's on, change the channel rather than yelling at the tube.
Me: Can I be denied landscaping services because I'm black? What if I want my hedges to look like chess pieces?
Gorsuch: Well, Should I be forced to give you a blue heffawoozle if my Aryant only allows for red gobknockles?
Me: What?

Periodic reminder:
Marginalized people don't owe you shit.
Let them find joy in twerking in public at 4 am if they want to.
Let them laugh about stupid memes and spinning their skirts.
Let them post thirst traps even if you think it's kinda cringe.
Let them talk in uwu and wear fursuits.
Let them use neopronouns and have a gender that takes 2000 words to describe.
Let them wear their leather to Pride, or dress in exaggerated drag or dress in outfits that most people their age don't wear.
We're in a boiling world, in an end stage capitalist christofascist hellscape, and the forces who hate us ain't going to care how much we try to conform: they want us dead.
If you think less of someone because they're finding joy in an utterly harmless activity, that says far more about how you're a pathetic piece of shit than it does about them.
