I’m making a new religion that turns libraries into religious institutions and our most holy practice is going to the library and reading books. On the weekend we all get together and read silently together at the library. Our holy leaders are our librarians as they are guides to knowledge.
This way it makes it significantly harder to defund libraries. 😈

I have a theory that autistic people enjoy unfamiliar and minority cultures because it's far more likely someone will explain the rules of these cultures,literally, at some point
When it's your own culture, or the dominant majority like in colonialism, it is assumed to be neutral and natural and inevitable and never explained literally. When really all cultural norms for manners and politeness and protocol are grown from history and power and sometimes a foreign environment, sometimes arbitrary

Modern day eco-warriors save the planet by hacking Starlink's satellite control system and deorbit satellites into all the mega-datacenters being used to power AI. Also some OIL CEO mansions and yachts.
Happy Pride everyone! Remember that pride isn't about who's in your bedroom, it's about showing the world that you're ok with being different, that you're valid, and that you're not going anywhere. More importantly, it's about letting other different people know that they aren't alone in the world.
Also remember that corporations don't give a shit about us, they slap rainbows on everything in June because they want your money.
P.S. The original Pride was a riot against police brutality and the right wing elements that want to exterminate us. Unfortunately not much has changed.

"does kink belong at Pride" is such a shitlib question
"does capitalism belong at Pride" is a much better question
Imagine if you tell someone that a friend has started cancer treatment. "This is good", they say "but only if they stop smoking and eat more vegetables".
You never told them if your friend smoke, or what their diet is like. In this scenario, as a norm, anyone that get cancer treatment is told how they have stop smoking and eat more vegetables, even from complete, random strangers. No matter. Not? No meds.
This is not not acceptable, right? Anyone can get cancer, and even if they smoke, treatment is given. What else is important is between them and their Dr.
"But this cancer medication is ALSO an MS medication! They smoked! It is NOT right that they take this med away from people with MS, making their treatment more expensive!" would also NEVER be acceptable.
This is what people using #Wegovy face continuously. #Obesity is mostly caused by medical conditions. Wegovy is a treatment.
Don't toss "they also need to exercise and eat better!" at people.
They don't steal it from diabetics.
Stop #abelism.
This (use `file`) is probably my #1 make-linux-easier tip. My #2 make-linux-easier tip is did you know vi can just open zip files? And like tgz files and stuff. To vi they are just funny directories. You can use vi to poke around inside zip files and read text files inside of them without having to decompress them.
My #3 tip: run `man -k blarg` (or `apropos blarg`) and it'll search all the man pages on your system for "blarg". If you forget the name of a command you can use this to look it up.
In the final 4 years of the 20th century, before I found furry, the queer community was there for me.
It was positive, sincere and fun, And accepted me even though, as a furry asexual, I was nothng like the norm.
Happy pride month🌈
I want billboards all across the nation (in the USA):
"If it can happen to Trump, it can happen to anyone. DON'T BREAK FEDERAL LAW."
Smaller text:
"That's how society works: if you break the law, you face consequences."
Even smaller text:
"(If you're running for office, don't try to hide payments to prostitutes you had sex with!)"
