I dont doubt for a second there are plenty of people who lie about it. Its the sort of thing i expect people to make up.

But I'd be curious what the actual numbers are around that.. cause at ~1% of people alive today (and 0.25% of people alive at the time) thats a pretty massive section of the population.

I never met a single person who had claimed to go to Woodstock, so my personal experience differs, but thats another matter.

@chris

If we take this a step farther...

One can assume most of the people who attended woodstock were under the age of at the time and that most of the people alive today would have been people under the age of 30.

The US population is about 25% under 30. We could also eliminate anyone under the age of maybe 15 or so since they would be too young to attend, but thats another matter.

As a rough estimate we can assume about 1% of people alive today probably went to woodstock if they were alive at the time.

@chris

Is there an actual study on this trying to quantify it?

The population of the usa in '69 was 200 million, so at almost half a million people at woodstock that would mean that 1 in 400 people alive in '69 had attended the festival... Thats pretty huge when you think about it. 0.25% of the entire population at a single festival, thats massive!

@RubenWA

Yes freemason's require you to be religious and recognize the overlap. Nothing wrong with sticking to religion.

That said I do find 95% of religious will say these words but not live by them in the least. Freemasons actually love by it. More importantly these teaching are more the focus and more central

@SirHendrick

A simple accusation isn't enough to qualify as slander. But yea if she meets all the criteria absolutely.

But again she was found to be telling the truth in court so....

While you should feel no obligation to donate, if you wish to you can donate to the non-profit that operates QOTO here (I will be sure the funds go to the server). This hasnt been made public yet so not much acitivity there. If its a one time donation just use the donation option, the others are monthly commitments.

Woot, we brought up a website for my new company with a little bit of information. Hopefully will make the hiring process a bit smoother too.

Naturally our company website also doubles as a #Fedipage based single-user instance.

You can follow it on the fediverse here: @cleverthis

And the website itself is here: CleverThis.com

As a Freemason I found the following passage about our teachings exemplary of why I joined

MASONIC TEACHINGS

[...] extend charity and sympathy to all mankind, shield and support the widow and orphan, defend virtue, respect the aged, honor the bonds of friendship, protect the helpless, lift up the oppressed, comfort the downcast, restore dignity to the rejected, respect the laws of government, promote morality, and add to the common stock of knowledge and understanding.

@ILoveAmericaNews

As long as its under oath then sure.. what does that have to do with the picture though. As far as I know she was never found guilty of false accusation in fact, she won the civil case. Was there some new development I missed?

@EubieDrew

I can point you to the nonprpfit when I get home. You can donate through open collective.

@EubieDrew

So blocked means the server will appear not to exist at all.

Silence means you won't see public posts and follows will show as a follow request. Anyone you follow you will see my normally.

Limited is for stuff like rejecting just media files.

Suspended is another word for blocked but usually refers to accounts rather than servers.

Does that help?

Thought I'd try the patterned white on white with a jacket.. works better.

@stux

Sounds excatly like how people used to complain about high level languages, which now you use :) Give it time.

@TheOldGuy

Not supporting Ukraine would be like not supporting Palestine. How could anyone not support the people in their own home against a foreign invader who claims ancient long extinct claim to the land. I dont understand how there are people who actually are against people's right to their own land.

@johnlogic paddle holster would defeat the purpose of a level 3.

@arbocenc

If your argument is "year russia deserves to be attacked and Ukraine defended but we should also therefore attack Israel and defend palestine".. then sure, we agree.. Sadly though it sounds like your just grasping at straws to weakly justify Russia, which is kinda sad on your part if thats what you were trying to do. That would be a rather idiotic stand point to take if thats what you meant.

@EugeneMcParland @guerra

@KimPerales

Agree that our healthcare system is a mess. The problem is as someone who lives in multiple countries and spends 6 mos+ out of the country every year one thing is very obvious, there is no working healthcare system anywhere in the world.

The problem is trying to fix a system when no body in the world actually knows how to make a working healthcare system is a huge huge problem. I dont really have much confidence in our politicians to crack that code.

Decided to try patterned white on white today. It works.. needs a jacket I think or it's too plain.
