FYI this appears to be the most current guidance on contributing to a strike fund for New School PT faculty on strike https://www.instagram.com/p/ClzLqxELvY6/
@mathowie look,, we've evolved
@fraying I really appreciated this framing although I've been sober for almost 9 years! The analogy actually still mostly holds if you switch out bars for 12 step meetings (though people saying the craziest shit in AA (which they do) has uh, fewer consequences outside the room I guess).
amazing my idea for a shot for shot remake of Stalker in Horizon Worlds didn't get more traction on twitter
(look I thought it would be nice on a friday to ask people for nice stories OK )
when was the last time you were actually "excited" or "thrilled" to "share", be honest
@maxliboiron possibly too niche in its subject matter but when I taught it to undergrads it seemed to strike a chord by virtue of being a really concrete example and something they'd encountered in their everyday lives: https://modelviewculture.com/pieces/i-can-text-you-a-pile-of-poo-but-i-cant-write-my-name
meta mastodon talk
@DaveSanders I think instances will make different decisions about that; ultimately mutual aid itself is kind of a "from each according to" situation so that would probably shape my own approach.
meta mastodon talk
I should probably develop this thought further in not-a-microblog, but I think maybe it would be helpful to situate federated social in the context of mutual aid and concepts like "we keep us safe" rather than replicating a model of deferring responsibility to a corporation.
meta mastodon talk
Something @nasser and I were talking about last night: one way of thinking about freedom is that it takes more work. Redistributing power means redistributing risk and responsibility. When people are no longer beholden to the whims of a corporate platform, they're more beholden to one another. We're seeing people used to just being mad at Twitter for making bad moderation calls face--and make--moderation calls and face the fallout and face being beholden to others.

OK brand twitter is bad but this tweet is good https://twitter.com/NJGov/status/1308755338166968322
@sam I'm still hung up on the name tbh, how is it real
like are people actually posting on xoxo.zone? that feels very 2018
all the follows from the original incarnation of this account (mostly by now-inactive mastodon users) are slowly re-populating and my notifications feel like a welcome home party of only ghosts
