Delete Chrome. Now.

Google is using its exceptionally powerful position to make *the browser itself* analyze your browsing behavior and serve that on a plate in the form of "cohorts" to anyone interested.

They are transforming Chrome into a "browsing-history-passport" - right now.

If you care about your intellectual freedom even a little bit, you must put Chrome out of your life as soon as possible. Support others doing the same.

The problem with April Fools is its a lotta effort and talent to make a convincing fake product or project. Energy you could put into something like your actual project. At best you're wasting resources from your main thing and at worst you make something that's actually interesting but can never work on cuz it was a "joke."

not to be tankiepilled on main or anything but I feel like it's worth mentioning that the U.S. has, in -very recent memory in fact-, contrived massive human rights abuses that weren't actually happening to justify sanctions, war and forceful regime change abroad.

you know that story that seemingly all americans teach their kids: how the concept of money today came from some earlier form of bartering economies?

yea that's completely made up.

Things autism research could be about:

- How does autism radar work?
- Do we have an easier time communucating with other autistics because our ways of communication are similar, or because we've all had to learn to accomodate the people we're talking to?
- What can be done to prevent and treat autistic burnout?
- What even *is* autistic burnout exactly?
- What effects does masking have on your mental health?
- What autistic traits are actually traits of autism, and which ones are trauma responses?
- How is a non-traumatized autistic brain work?
- How can we better accomodate autistic people?

What autism research is about:
- How do we make the autistic people stop existing?

a real strike is something that shuts down or otherwise impacts production. a ‘virtual strike’ aims to moralize consumption via boycott, while leaving production unaffected

I’m really tired of this genre of viral internet post that’s like “DONT CROSS THE PICKET LINE! don’t order from Widget Burger Co on Tuesday because there’s a BIG STRIKE” and then you go to look at widget burger co on Tuesday and there’s nobody picketing and everyone is at work like normal. it totally devalues the idea of what a labor movement even is and makes you look gullible as hell for joining in. and this is self crit bc ive done it before

ace @ chitter .xyz is back at it again. Do not donate to any requests for fundraising to the kofi account acestarr or the paypal account foxyart.

She got permabanned from twitter for transphobic, antisemitic, and ableist tantrums as well as copious suicide baiting, and now she's come to mastodon to try to grift from people here as well. She's a notorious scammer and a megathread of eveidence aginst her from various sources can be found at https://twitter.com/corust_/status/1353151949529640960

I've tried presenting the evidence to chitter administration in the past but was written off because they don't want to deal with it, and in the process are putting their instance and many others at risk as she has been ousted from countless communities, my own discord server as well, for violently toxic behavior and extremely abusive and gaslighting fits whenever she doesn't get her way.

She claims she acknowledges she was toxic "in the past" but she was calling people "jewish rats" and throwing around the r-slur and lying about using money people gave her for food to get a new ipad a matter of weeks ago, and she continues to behave exactly the same way with no intention of changing.

Block her, warn others about her, and stay safe. Do not let this abuser prey on the generosity of people on the masto and bury other crowdfunding requests from people who actually, genuinely need it.

It’s funny how Y2K is remembered as an overblown hoax and not as “for fucking once we saw a problem coming in advance, actually dedicated sufficient time and resources to solving it, and a crisis was averted before it happened.” Makes me wonder how people would think of Covid if we had handled it well.
