Are people really being hired through Mastodon posts? I feel embarrassed to put my CV on here but I see a lot of people doing it and my workplaces and funds are illegally removing the only women and would appreciate any help finding remote work in STEM

@karenattiah.bsky.social: "I was the last remaining Black full-time opinion columnist at the Post, in one of the nation’s most diverse regions. Washington D.C. no longer has a paper that reflects the people it serves...."

Bogdan, who is sadly not on Mastodon, built a web server from a disposed vape.
On the one hand, what has the world come to, treating 32-bit processors faster than our youth's computers as disposable...
OTOH, the sheer amount of cool we can do by just repurposing the trash shat out by rampant consumerism!

Hey by the way South Koreans are now reporting they were put in chains and treated like animals for 7 days after ICE raided the multi-billion dollar plant they were setting up for the benefit of 8500 high paying American jobs.
They had valid visas.
They were here legally.
They did everything right.
Trump still treated them like animals.
It was NEVER about "legal" immigration. It was always about banning non-white immigration.
PeerTube is a decentralized alternative to YouTube
that doesn't believe in harvesting user data and pushing people into echo chambers via a proprietary algorithm.
Built on open standards and federation,
it lets communities host and share video without depending on a central server.
Borrowed from fakebook.
My daughter came home from school and said,
“Mom, you’re not going to believe what happened in history class today.”
Her teacher told the class they were going to play a game.
He walked around the room and whispered to each kid whether they were a witch or just a regular person. Then he gave the instructions:
“Form the biggest group you can without a witch. If your group has even one, you all fail.”
She said the whole room instantly lit up with suspicion.
Everyone started interrogating each other. Are you a witch? How do we know you’re not lying?
Some kids clung to one big group, but most broke off into smaller, exclusive cliques. They turned away anyone who seemed uncertain, nervous, or gave off even the slightest hint of being guilty.
The energy shifted fast. Suddenly everyone was suspicious of everyone.
Whispers. Finger-pointing. Side-eyes. Trust dissolved in minutes.
Finally, when all the groups were formed, the teacher said,
“Alright, time to find out who fails. Witches, raise your hands.”
And not one hand went up.
The whole class exploded. “Wait! You messed up the game!”
And then the teacher dropped the bomb:
“Did I? Were there any actual witches in Salem, or did everyone just believe what they were told?”
My daughter said the room went dead silent.
That’s when it hit them. No witch was ever needed for the damage to happen. Fear had already done its work. Suspicion alone divided the entire class, turning community into chaos.
And isn’t that exactly what we’re seeing today?
Different words, same playbook.
Instead of “witch,” it’s liberal, conservative, vaxxed, unvaxxed, pro-this, anti-that.
The labels shift, but the tactic is the same.
Get people scared. Get them suspicious. Get them divided.
Then sit back while trust crumbles.
The danger was never the witch.
The danger is the rumor. The suspicion. The fear. The planted lies.
Refuse the whisper. Don’t play the game. Because the second we start hunting “witches,” we’ve already lost.

#Musk accused of ‘incitement’ after #Robinson march comments
The tech billionaire claimed a “dissolution of #Parliament” is needed & said “massive uncontrolled migration” was contributing to the “destruction of #Britain”
He also told the crowd that “violence is coming” and that “you either fight back or you die”
LibDem leader Ed Davey said on X: “Our democracy is too precious to be a plaything for foreign tech barons.
He should have called for killing homeless people like Fox’s Brian Kilmeade did.
That seems to be acceptable.
