       If you're using an app called Husky, beware, it's a malicious version of Tusky (Tusky's the legit one) maintained by white supremacists.It does not comply with all activity pub protocols, it does not respect blocking, and they've started blocking legit fediverse instances - mine included - at the code level. Uninstall and install Tusky (with a T) instead.

       @drwhoIn other news, I'm learning to #3DModelling on #Blender for human figure posing. Currently downloaded Blender and #MakeHuman, which IMO sucks big time. Can't find any other alternatives for Linux ๐Ÿ™#Daz3D works only on Windows, so that sucks.Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

       From https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/ijkbrd/twitter_removes_qanon_supporters_false_claim/g3eio0eIf you type in on Twitter: 'Q Jim Watkins' you'll see how the true owner of Q got doxed recently. Q . pub, Q-map/Q-anon is tied to current 8chan owner Jim Watkins. He's known for escaping America to the Philippines after suggesting that 8chan would be a safe-haven for: 'Peadophiles.' He's a rampant conspiracy theorist. His IP not only tied to Q-anon it's also tied to a obscure Twitter knock-off site that's popular with White-Supremacists called GAB and also links to The Daily Stormer which is a Neo-Nazi: 'news' site. Jim Watkins is Q and it's a essentially a viral front solely dedicated to spreading anti-Semitism as well as white supremacy online through various social media platforms.https://twitter.com/tamarafurey/status/1298052647686033408https://twitter.com/HW_BEAT_THAT/status/1297616337984843776https://twitter.com/bitburner/status/1298358752773431296> Make this information go viral.

       @er1nIt's a stigma. A good catgirl doesn't get fleas, where has she been? Have you been hiding in alleys? What kind of dirty things were you doing?You'll rarely see a catgirl go to the pharmacy and ask for flea powder; that's their mothers' jobs. What you do see is flea proof shampoo.  Look for the ingredients in the shampoos with the catgirl supermodel on the front and the "anti-rash" label near the bottom. There it is, the anti flea chemical.It should also be noted that a knowledgeable catgirl also buys normal shampoo, because excessive use of flea shampoo can cause irritation and gastrointestinal problems.Curious fact: Catgitls often have cat pets; they're the perfect excuse to buy flea powder (even if the cats end up passing their unwelcome guests to their owners).Oh, and the interspecies rumours are completely false; horny male writers are to blame. Never ask that question in public if you don't want to get your face scratched.#CatgirlFacts #Worldbuilding

       @perfectblueA friend of mine is blind and I wouldn't like them to miss all the fun.To expand on this:Imagine a diorama, a small cube encompassing a scene of life at a scale, with miniatures representing all objects / people that exist there.A comic book is like copies of the same diorama, captured at different points in time, and arranged chronologically like rooms in a doll house.The magic happens when the superhero can literally reach or move through adjacent rooms in this dollhouse, accessing different objects from past or future dioramas. Obviously the future is changed by his actions, so the next dioramas in the timeline are affected by his changes.An alternative explanation is that the hero can open portals across space and time, but it's much funnier when following the rules and limitations of a comic book format.

       The twitter feed format is too demanding and doesn't let you get organized.How about this:Thumbnails of the people you follow, sorted by custom preference/groups/date, etc. with those with unread messages always at the top. Hover for balloon popup with a bit of their latest toot.Click on thumbnail to see their recent timeline on left pane (messages will show "new" for unread statuses), click on message to expand on another pane.

       We're fighting an uphill battle, that should be obvious by now. Perhaps this should be described as an asymmetric battle.They have money, media, resources.We have whatever we can save from our monthly expenses.The goal of the game, I'm afraid, is not victory, but survival. Survival from the coronavirus, survival from racist attacks, survival to find a place to live in because the rent is due.We cannot win this game alone; We have to ask for help and organize.The good news is that this is possible. Every vegetable you can grow at home is a saved vegetable expense. Every liter of water you collect and filter from the rain is a saved bottle expense. Every ride we share is half a ride we don't pay.And every cent we save is a cent we can donate to those in worse situation than us. And from that come resources for the fight.It's very difficult but not impossible.The name of this stage is "community", and we got a late start. And then comes the next stage: Resistance.

       The thing about resistance is that as laws become more and more draconian, it becomes significantly harder to write about them online.If piracy was illegal, the next danger is talking *about* piracy beoming illegal. If strikes are illegal, then they'll classify organizing strikes as conspiracy to commit a crime, and so on.Even more dangerous than illegality is surveillance: No matter how legal is the resistance you plan to organize; if they can see the talk, they can shut you up - or worse, take you down.Organizing any kind of resistance MUST be done offline, which is why forming a local community is ESSENTIAL.Time is running out; if you wait until the elections, it will be too late.Good luck.

       (This is for a friend still too shy to openly ask these questions)For all #trans folks, but especially those AMAB (assigned male at birth), enbies also welcome:How was your "inner" transition, from believing in being "he/him" to "she/her" or "they/them"? Did you always knew?When did you start feeling comfortable being called a "her", even in private? Was it gradual? Did you feel ashamed or even uncomfortable at times? Was it a zig zag thing, one day yes, the next no? Was there an "eureka" moment?For those who did NOT experience dysphoria: Did you question whether you were actually trans? Did you think you were just confused or fooling yourselves? Did you feel like not belonging to the trans community because you were still cis? Was/is any of you still uncomfortable wearing dresses despite having an ideal female identity?Do any of you still identify as their original gender despite transitioning?Long explanations and stories welcome.

       Most of the VPN services I've found online are for accessing external websites, but that's not the kind of VPN I'm looking for.I'm looking for a VPN service where two machines from the internet can connect to each other as if they were in a LAN, something like a virtual office.Does anyone here have any experience with this type of VPN? It'll be for 5 computers max (maybe even fewer).Any advice is welcome.:boost_ok:

       Feeling kinda down right now. For the last year I've had to deal with my father's decreasing mental health. Dementia, worst possible scenario. After several months of him not improving we finally found out he had cirrhosis; his liver was completely destroyed due to his alcoholism.Last month he died in the worst possible conditions, not even awake and after lots of suffering.We lost the house, my savings are gone, and I'm over 2K of debt.This week I received the IRS notice and I had to pay over $200 of taxes, further increasing my debt.I'm terribly depressed right now and I don't know what to do with my life; I'll have to work for several months just to get out of the debt.I lost all motivation to go on with my novel. It was the most important thing in my life, and I was just starting to write again, but today I feel like shit. :'( Can I get some hugs please?Also, if you could donate, I'd gladly appreciate it. Boosts OK. :boost_ok: https://www.paypal.me/YukiMX

       Hi guys, to make this short and skip the sob story, I lost my home and still owe around 2K USD in credit card debt due to my dad's medical and funerary expenses. On top of that, last year's tax receipt just arrived and it's around 250 USD, so... ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จIf anyone's wants to contribute to the cause, my paypal address is https://www.paypal.me/YukiMX Make sure you don't specify a shipping address, or the IRS will think I'm selling stuff ๐Ÿ˜žSome of you guys already donated 150 USD (thank you! ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™). Thanks in advance guys. Love you all!
