uspol, COVID-19
Never forget this is all because of the greed and lust for power of the people in the executive. If we had properly locked down, with rents and mortgages halted and a UBI, we’d be over the pandemic by now and have had only a fraction of the deaths and chronic sickness.
They literally murdered close to half a million people so far. With nothing to show for, other then billionaires getting even richer.
Oh, I forgot, also a bonus armed resurrection trying to overthrow democracy.

Drying my old #typematrix keycaps. Nothing mechanical (yet?), my hipster cred is too low.
Just a well deserved cleanup.
Microsoft sued a renowned e-waste innovator. Eric Lundgren was sentenced to 15-month prison term and a $50,000 fine for providing Windows restore disks that MS provides free downloads for. It's still a rotten company.
California Fires, Capitalism
Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth, Gerard Butler's house burnt down, making headlines. One of dozens of houses they have or could buy in a heartbeat with their many millions of dollars.
Meanwhile exploited agriculture laborers and prisoners *putting out the fires* have to work for criminally low wages risking their life, cause they don't make enough to afford to not work.
Fuck capitalism.
I know I'm in a bit of a bubble but since the whole thing that got me into #ruby development was to contribute to #diaspora I was shocked when no one I talked to at #rubyconf has heard of #mastodon and the one person that heard of #diaspora thought it died a long time ago. I knew we had work to do on getting the #fediverse profile bumped up but still shocked at the lack of awareness of it here. Going to put my thinking cap on on this topic...
