I AM ABSOLUTELY HERE FOR PRO MOTH PROPAGANDA

i love them both so much 🥹

Jfc 😅

half of the department’s 50 officers “had been suspended, demoted, terminated or dishonorably discharged from their previous law enforcement jobs,” the station said, citing personnel records obtain under a Freedom of Information request.

Thanks! Meant to come back and give it a read so I could learn specifics but really didn’t wanna try to wade through stressful stuff right now

Though my trust it will stay that way is not super high 😅

How the hell do you use this app? I’ve had it favorited in my f-droid client for ages but never figured out how to actually use it 😅

I get the impression the threadiverse is a very white space and to me, white people’s opinion on what feels appropriative seems unlikely to have as much perspective as you might want if the question matters to you. If there are folks you’re close with who it’d make sense to ask and are black, they might be a better crowd to ask. Or even a different part of the internet.

I think in general when you’re wondering how people feel about something you need to talk to the affected people. Thats easiest when you have relationships where you know thats welcome, or if you go to a space where it is actively invited.

Maybe the folks answering are giving good answers rooted in perspective though- as some random white guy I wouldn’t know short of asking someone else. Honestly my read on the demographics of the platform could be off too. Being that it’s a somewhat anonymous feeling version of social media you don’t have a great sense for who’s answering your post and what kind of perspective they’re speaking from 🤷🏻‍♂️

I use home automation to help manage a disability and have been meaning to move to home assistant but right now I’m still using google home devices…

Guess that means I have to move up my schedule. Really wish I did this before the ai hardware price spike like I was considering doing.

Can’t wait to go see if thin client or needed components will cost me a billion dollars. ALSO BECAUSE OF AI. Fucking stupid horseshit, I have no money

Saving this to send to people I’m trying to flirt with

I absolutely agree, I am also a leftist but constantly stewing in political news isn’t good for your head, or even in a practical sense good for your ability to go actually get involved in stuff outside. You have to take care of yourself if you want emotional energy with which to do any real political labor

I wish we could come up with some collective strategy to create better balance cause this platform tends to share politics as common ground, and with not many people here that means a lot of what gets posted and engaged with is all just news and politics.

And yes, I know everything is political. AND, you need to be able to step away from the politics of the world and catch your breath and be mentally well. Any one thing dominating your time and emotional energy can become unhealthy quickly, especially when its all bad news or small victories that remind you of the broken bigger picture.

Balance is important. I’m thinking about creating a seperate account and blocking all the political communities and filtering by keywords so I can just be here for hobbies and folks chatting when I want that

Are taking up arms and violent revolution generally thought of as being mutually exclusive with socialism that embraces democracy as the basis of governance, or do they just usually not go together?

I’ve also heard “the process is the punishment”

We will all know when it’s time.

Rest of the comment aside I think this is untrue and not a good position to be arguing. We have already passed many things that people would have thought completely unthinkable, I think it is dangerous to assume it will just be obvious. We all have lives and unless we are individually targeted they will just go on- getting worse little by little, every passing day, and you will get used to it

Regardless of where you draw your line, people will not all just innately know, people must draw their line consciously and decide when it has been crossed over

National Guard Stop Being So Embarrassing.

Lol, thats an excellent thing to put on a sign

Its his brows going “oh… Oh no…”
