Given the crossover of people displaying “thin blue line” flags with those showing “thin red line” flags (which is stupid, who is against the fire department??), and with their success in harassing corporations into dropping DEI initiatives, I wouldn’t put it past right-wing crazies to try bullying their fire departments into ignoring incidents for their progressive neighbors
“Welcome to City 17!”
I love how his last name is pronounced “to share a” and he did, in abundance
Did any other US residents just get a text from cdc’s v-safe program? 👀
Don’t forget the trans and gays! 🙃
163 years without a civil war, it’s been a good run. Note I’m not knocking this effort, but the lines in the sand are being drawn…
I think it’s easy to understand Mastodon, or any federated service, using a metaphor for a country or large place, where you can say “I want to move to X country” but then you have to actually pick a place IN that country to live, like a specific city or rural district.

Buckle up buckaroos
As someone with formal education in electrical engineering, electricity is magic and we are wizards
Who are these people who vote for abortion access AND Trump? Does that make your vote for fascism okay?
If you don’t vote for Harris it’s effectively a vote for Trump, and Trump has publicly said he would help Netanyahu finish the job. That’s the choice we are facing
It’s called being realistic about what president can do with their powers. She absolutely should encourage Congress to pass legislation as that is much more permanent and effective than executive orders
Things seem to have improved in the last 5 years, so maybe give it another shot. I’m on Fedora 40 with gnome and lots of extensions, and I’m constantly tinkering with it to make it look just right (for fun, not that I feel like I have to). Nothing catastrophic has happened yet!🤞
Millions of American children are (were?) given these in the third grade and yes they all call them that
