Most people, when they think of Nazism, imagine a rigid dictatorship, in which Hitler gave strict orders to carry out a carefully engineered program of genocide.

They don't realize the degree to which Nazi functionaries improvised in an effort to curry favor with the Fuhrer by anticipating what they thought he might like to see.

IOW, they ramped up the violence b/c they believed they would be rewarded for it.

This is how "MASS DEPORTATION NOW" spirals out of control.

I mean.

The ENTIRE reason my account is popular AT ALL is because most of us are geared to listen to ruddy-faced blue-eyed white-dudes-with-beards instead of Black women—who are the actual sources of the things I talk about.

#MyWhitePrivilege

RT @Freeyourmindkid@twitter.com

White people - What is the most outrageous thing that you've gotten away with as a white person that you know damn well a black or brown person would have never gotten away with?

#MyWhitePrivilege

I'm standing my ground, because that's one of my white privileges, but disenfranchised and at-risk people in #Florida and #Texas should probably consider their options.

#MutualAid to help PoC and/or #LGBTQ+ relocate IS the underground railroad.

All of the times you fantasized about helping runaway slaves and being the white savior, this is your chance.

I also have hidden spaces planned in #Georgia. Just in case. Hit me up on #Signal

So. Here we go. In no order, just listing off what I loved. With so much more to discover.

Ericka's Favorite #Music of 2023.
We will start with #RockMusic first.

ROCK (all formats):
ALL THINGS BOYGENIUS: THE RECORD AND THE REST
Paramore: This Is Why
Yo La Tengo: This Stupid World
Dolly Parton: Rock Star
PJ Harvey: I Inside the Old Year Dying
Julia Zivic: Live At Guava EP
Meet Me @ The Altar: Past Present Future
Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS
Arlo Parks: My Soft Machine (& anything else she wants to do)

I will be frank. The amount of insecure, delusional, racist white men who have blocked ME for calling out their racism in the last 5 days is disgusting and delusional. Block lists will not help with racist reply guys. You holding them accountable might, however.

This is how I felt in 2016 when first introduced to this place and it’s proving itself to be true. Intentionally being violent towards Black people while touting fake diversity. No one will ever like mastodon except tech dudebros.

Shout-out to the Zoom SRE and DevOps teams, who had no idea that they were about to become critical voting infrastructure. 🤷🏿‍♂️

44,000 Black women on a Zoom call for future President Kamala Harris

45,000 Black men on a Zoom call for future President Kamala Harris

136,00 White women in a Zoom call for future President Kamala Harris

And yes, the White women call is the largest call in Zoom history.

Former DOJ officials warned in a new letter that the “fabric of the nation, the rule of law and the future of the Democracy are at stake in this election.”

New instance, new reminder that

Testosterone implies the existence of stagingtosterone and productiontosterone

"Can the democrats keep up this momentum for an election cycle!?"

Yeah actually. Easily. That's one of the great things about the timing, the GOP has to scramble to find a message because they can't repeat a lie for a year until it sticks.

In the meantime:

August: DNC Boost
September: Second Debate Boost (if Trump chickens out this could be a town hall)
October: October Surprise
November: Election

Somewhere in here is the VP pick boost as well.

Finally made another large-scale #SecondLife terrain model! 🗺️ To go along with my #SL21B exhibit, where I have a model on display of Heterocera, I've now mapped and made a video showing Sansara as well, SL's oldest continent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCdQO179uqM

More links as well as a brief overview of my process are available in the video's description text. And a shout-out to @Blender for being such an awesome piece of software! This project would never have gotten off the ground if not for #b3d and bpy.
