Family values are those values that don’t include a woman’s right to her own body, that don’t include our queer bretheren, our trans siblings, our immigrant neighbours in a world of immigrants.
Isn’t it funny how family values exclude so much of real families?
Yang chas Solo chone Wookiee!
Nah, he’ll be put in charge of women’s health and reproductive rights.
The tax isn’t the point. The point is to crash the economy so that the rich can buy up as much as possible as cheaply as possible, once more consolidating more wealth into their hands and robbing it from the rest of us. They don’t care if the price of eggs, or iPhones, or any other goods are going to increase, they have the funds to wait that out, but when the cost of ownership of land, property or corporations goes down, they can buy them up and control that wealth once it recovers.
They don’t care that you suffer. They just want to own all the stuff.

“Rollers, owners, dealers, stoners” was the order I was taught.
DNSNet, it’s a FOSS app on F-Droid, works on pretty much all apps, as it acts like a vpn but runs entirely locally.
It’s been nice being on GrapheneOS for the last couple of months. Nothing trying to listen to me, or be helpful in obtrusive ways, just a phone being a phone.
It should be a requirement to not “set aside the controversy” when taking about ZA/UM.
This annoys me to an unreasonable degree. We’re watching Shameless (US) and they are constantly gesticulating with empty coffee cups and I get mad every time.
Google are killing it recently, broken installers, bricked chromecasts, ai slop masquerading as search results. Absolutely killing it.
I use Qobuz, and I like it a lot. You can easily download music for offline listening, there’s a lot of high def on there, and from what information is known about how much streaming services pay back to record labels, Qobuz appears to be the biggest payer per stream.
The app is no frills, they only added auto generated playlists a year or so ago. Their recommendations are less tailored, but high quality if you’re wanting to explore outside your usual tastes.
Plus, it’s just music. No podcasts, no audiobooks, no games, no generative ai for some reason.
Any character voiced by Tony Jay becomes hot by the velvety nature of his voice.
Fuck yes!
So glad I made the switch to GrapheneOS, and hurridly pulling my data out of Google’s services. It may take me another month or two before I’m just down to migrating the rest of my email from gmail (reckon that might take me all year) but these articles just spur me on more.
Starmer is such a weak centrist cuck.
Just finished Red Shirts by Jon Scalzi, a Star Trek satire about the disposability of side characters in sci-fi. Not a bad book, by any regards, but had a very simplistic writing style that got tedious at times. The best part of the book was when the narrative finished 75% of the way through the novel, then it spent three chapters exploring three of the minor characters from the narrative and the repercussions the plot had on them. This made the book worth reading, but I still felt a little unsatisfied at the end.
I’m now reading Alien Clay by Adrian Tchaikovsky. I’m only two chapters in, but so far, this looks much more up my street. Earth has become a fascist technocracy that sends its political prisoners to far off planets to endure forced labour. The descriptions of acceptable losses in the first chapter made the tense descent of the main character to his new prison planet all the more so. Interested to see where this one goes.
I just recently set up a private NextCloud instance and had OnlyOffice integrated for document editing, until I tested it on my phone and saw you needed to pay for a license to edit documents on mobile. Went with Collabora instead, which is working nicely. Dodged a bullet there.
I’m not the author, just saw this elsewhere and thought it needed more visibility.
From a cursory look, as I don’t know NPM, Swag doesn’t require a database itself as all config is file based, and doesn’t have any user management. Both seem to be nginx based with Fail2Ban installed, there’s probably some other differences.
What I like about Swag is that with my config checked into a git repo and an act runner set up, I can reconfigure swag on the fly, with a rollback, as it’s just a case of pushing an update to the repo and letting the runner pull changes and restart the container. It works very well for how I want things set up.
Pooh Bear energy.
