Reminder that donating to the Harris campaign through #MastodonForHarris isn't just about the total amount of money raised, it's about the number of donations.
Of course we aren't going to outraise these billionaires, but what all these people who are willing to throw even $5 at this thing are showing the political world is that this is a network full of people who are engaged enough in politics to put our money where our mouth is. You can't say Harris doesn't have any supporters here, nor can you say we are just sitting on the sidelines, when over 100,000 people have given her money.
And you know, if someone is willing to give you $5, they are most definitely going to vote for you. You might even be able to get them to volunteer, or strategize around what this large group is doing.
This is a show of power.
This is proof that, if they give this network a chance, it could be a good place to get support from.

What a week!
I discovered the FediForum unconference on Mastodon and spent the next three days learning about ActivityPub, web fingers and hooks, and the history and politics of federated social media from some of the originators. I’ll have to level up my technical skills, again. I spent a few hours finding, learning about, and following folks across Mastodon instances and then closing scores of tabs.

New blog post! This time I'm taking a look at fonts. I ran into a floppy disk containing a pair of extremely cute dingbat fonts - a tokusatsu helmet alphabet, and a set of decorative lucha mask characters. They're well-designed and very detailed.

Before I was a mountain biker, or a trail runner, or a skier, or a mountaineer, or a caver... even before I was a rock climber, I was a backpacker.
This is a story about rediscovering that fact.

Someone suggested this the last time Grazing Private Lyin' was shot at: A dem needs to introduce a gun control bill called the "Save Donald Trump Act" and just see how many repubs reject such a thing. If they don't get on board, wouldn't Hair Furher put them on the shit list if they didn't support it?
La convergence des haines - conférence de Kylian DUCHEMIN
Une conférence très intéressante à l'initiative de @Hacking social
La convergence des haines, une histoire de narcissisme, de honte et d’idéologie !?!
Voici la conférence de K. Duchemin, doctorant en psychologie, que vous avez pu voir en live en juin dernier : afin de faciliter l’accessibilité et le dynamisme nous avons monté ce live.

A ce que j'ai compris, cette instance allemande d'invidious dispose d'un script qui modifie automatiquement le proxy.... suffit de patienter 2mn et la vidéo est dispo. D'ailleurs, vaut mieux éviter de vouloir recharger la page web, le changement de proxy est auto.

Oh well, maybe I can hit the next thing. Is anything else like that coming up? Any residual activity from it?
