On today’s 100-mile bike ride I wore my special sun-protective SPF capris. Apparently they don’t block whatever part of the spectrum that causes “sun allergy,” because this happened:
@ninapaleyThat looks painful. Put some cold water or lotion on it.
Could it be something in the sunscreen such as a fragrance, chemical, or dye? The best sunscreen is natural mineral based sunscreens with no fragrance. Zinc oxide is a good sunscreen, but it's white and chalky.
Certain drugs can make people photosensitive.
If it doesn't get better, and your primary physician can't help you, you might have to see a dermatologist.
@LuvGreenTea2019I have had this since I was a teenager. Dermatologists’ advice is “stay out of the sun.” I am not willing to do that. I do wish something could protect my skin from this, but neither sunscreens nor sun protective clothing work. I am just showing off here. It is definitely uncomfortable but I would rather endure this than not go outside.
SEATTLE — Police are investigating after multiple gunshots were fired into a home in Ballard early Sunday morning. The Seattle Police Department said the house was “potentially targeted due to political and ideological signs in the window of the residence.”
According to the SPD, officers responded to reports of shots fired at a home around 3 a.m. Sunday. Responding officers found several bullet holes in the window of the home where the signs were hung.
A Ballard home may have been the target of a shooting due to "political and ideological signs" placed in the window of the home, according to Seattle police.
Seattle also has the highest amount of Syphillis cases in the country, and the virus is mutating. I don't know if anyone has seen the videos on YouTube of what damage Syphillis caused back in the King Henry the Eighth lifetime, but it was horrific. If this is mutating, I would hate to see what people with the life of homeless people or mentally ill out on the street are going to develop from this, and wonder if it has spread to Oregon and California. The West Coast is doomed!
As I am a big fan of X11 - and I really look forward to the latest X11 fork XLibre - I decided to create its logo/wallpaper - as I believe no one else did it.
@vermaden vermadin, agree, I NEED the functionality of being able to fire up a graphical X application over an ssh connection. Wayland fails in this regard.
@KaiXin There was a project that intended to give it this functionality called Wayland on Wires, but it seems to have died, at least I've not seen any actual deployment or news from that group lately.
Wayland is, as near as I can tell, an interface to provide an efficient gaming experience and not much more.
one of the subtler benefits I’ve noticed in reclaiming my own music library is I can put on a new album and there can be a vibe change part way through without leaving me wondering whether it’s still the album or if it’s finished and switched over to algorithmic feed.
turns out constant vigilance for the algorithm is really shit for the enjoyment of art!
I’ve been working on a free tool to validate the signed status of PDFs. It’s been quite a slog since Adobe’s spec can be boiled down to “whatever we want,” kind of like the App Store.
I started watching #LoveDeathAndRobots last night and there's a lot more #sex and #nudity than I was expecting. It's good stuff though. I really appreciate that they're short, different styles, and tell a wide variety of stories.
New COVID-19 ‘Stratus’ Variant XFG Now In 38 Countries, WHO Monitoring.
XFG is a combination of LF.7 and LP.8.1.2, with 9 more spike mutations than NB.1.8.1. The spike protein helps the virus connect to human cells. New variants constantly compete to keep infecting and spreading.
Coming soon from subMedia in collaboration with Peter Gelderloos, the third and final installment of It’s Revolution or Death Part 3: Reclaiming the World, Wherever We Stand.
Parts 1 and 2 examined the failures of state and capitalist solutions to the climate crisis as well as revolutionary movements of people defending the planet. Part 3 seeks to provide helpful insights and experience for newer anarchists who are just getting started organizing around the climate crisis and building methods of transformative survival.
As Trump defunds Planned Parenthood, it's a good time to look at histories of abortion struggles that reject the government and major institutions and instead build feminist popular power from below, including the ability to conduct abortions and other reproductive care.
In my 2024 article “'To Repulse the State from Our Uteri': Anarcha-feminism, Reproductive Freedom, and Dual Power” I analyze how anarcha-feminists critiqued the state and attempted to build feminist dual power in response to the New Right’s attacks on reproductive freedom.
From the 1970s to today, anarcha-feminists have sought to build grassroots infrastructure, knowledge, and organizations like self-help groups in which they learn how to conduct abortions and other reproductive care, thus taking back power from the state and medical industry.
Women’s capacity to care for their own bodies and reproduction materially lessens state power. Establishing grassroots reproductive health care infrastructure is a key component of building autonomy and feminist dual power that challenges the rule of the state and capitalism.
Read more on anarcha-feminist abortion struggles in my article in Radical History Review “'To Repulse the State from Our Uteri': Anarcha-feminism, Reproductive Freedom, and Dual Power,” which you can find at the @librarytheanarchistlibrary.org/librar…
Tampa banner drop tells Turning Point USA (TPUSA) to GTFO
On the 7th of July, a banner drop in Tampa, FL warned TPUSA to get the fuck out of Tampa, which would require them to cancel their upcoming convention
On the 12th of July, Turning Point USA will be meeting in Tampa FL for a series of "Summits." This is Charlie Kirk's dangerous group of Fascists. When they were at the Tampa Convention Center in 2022, they even drew people in Nazi uniform with swastika flags. This was just weeks after Dobbs, and told me we were in for a very rough ride.
The Community Self-Defense Coalition LA held a news conference Monday, marking 30 days of resistance against the assault by federal authorities on L.A. communities. This is organizer Héctor Rivera.
how do you reduce the risk of a lithium ion battery fire? * never tinker with a battery; * only use certified, manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers; * keep it in sight while it charges; * if you notice anything out of the ordinary — strange odours, discolouration, excessive heat, change in shape, leaking or odd noises — stop using it and contact the manufacturer.

It does make me happy that feminism is literally going to cease to exist in a few generations because feminists literally champion killing their children.

xAI has disabled Grok, deleted a slew of its antisemitic and neo-Nazi posts, posted a statement, and are evidently rolling back the prompt that made it identify as "MechaHitler," but this new low for Elon Musk's chatbot will live in internet infamy:

We need to hurry up and fucking jettison the idea that people who go to prison "belong there", because a lot of us are at risk of "belonging there" soon enough.
Prisons by their very nature are oppressive. All prisoners are political prisoners.
Look, if we intend to make it through all the chaos that is coming, a lot of us need to start thinking in terms of liberation in a big way. We need transformative justice not imprisonment & slavery.
We can't be squeamish now. We can't clutch our pearls over "criminality" as defined by a State that exerts violent control over us all.
As far as I'm concerned, as long as our prisons are still standing, we haven't yet done enough to vanquish fascism. You have to burn the roots.
Dear liberals (if any of you are reading), please for the sake of us all, we need you to get over your fear of "criminals" as a class of person.
We need you to trust that we can build a better society that deals with violence, when it occurs, differently. For that matter, we already know that "crime" decreases when poverty decreases, so our "crime" problem is primarily a poverty problem!
Your imagination can't possibly be so poor that you can't even *faintly imagine* a future without retributive punishment & imprisonment. I *know* you have more creativity than that. Come on!
Interestingly, I'm definitely a liberal and also am completely 100% aware of the obvious fact that you mention.

Instead of thinking of them as "criminals" think of them as "desperate people pushed to the brink by an uncaring system" and that should motivate you the right way. Yes, there are actual people out there who want to hurt you. Most of them are already in positions of power or are seeking them out but you probably weren't thinking about that kind of crime even though you are far more likely to be a victim of it. You are probably already a victim of multiple crimes of that type. Go after them. They are the criminals stalking you and targeting you. Not a guy living in his car or the person begging for food. That could be you. That could be you. One medical emergency, one weather disaster, one layoff -- that could be you.
Yep. The segments of society who feel the most excluded, will inevitably feel less bound by the "social contract" (because it was already torn up for them!) and the laws of society. That should be obvious, but the NIMBYs' first instinct is always harsher policing and increased gentrification to shield them from the hordes at the gates.
Preventing such stratification is one important reason there are no private schools in Finland.
Education in Finland produces top tier students that works for everyone. 93 percent of Finns graduate from high school and there are no private schools.

Listen, all I’m saying is that we’ve seen more pictures of Donald Trump partying with Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell than we have of Donald Trump playing with his children Barron & Tiffany.
Hi, I'm Owen, he/him, a 40-something queer geek on the autism spectrum based near London, GB (for now). I work in civic tech during the day and Queering Wikipedia during my spare time, plus watching lots of film and TV and reading lots of queer books. I'm polyamorous, married to a bi woman, live with 2 cats & I have a boyfriend who lives too damn far away.
>and Queering Wikipedia during my spare time >I use my spare time to set homosexuality-inducing landmines on Wikipedia because I know children will come across them and end up a failed faggot like myself

So this meat tastes good, but I called $$$$$ to see how their meat was treated before the animal was killed packaged and sent here. An extremely contradictory and dodgy phone call. First I was told the meat was "natural," so that sounds ok, the lady told me the animals were treated respectably, and they weren't given pesticides.
Do these bluecry douchebags have nothing better to do than harrass a butcher shop?
If your a fucking vegan don't go to the butcher shop!
@Arthur_500 Just a small factoid, the vegamites keep telling us red meat is bad for our health. The nation with the highest red meat consumption per capita is Japan. The nation with the longest life expectancy is Japan. You can buy this crap and eat Bill Gates artificial meat if you like, I'll pass.
Oberstes Gericht billigt Trumps Massenentlassungen bei US-Behörden
Der Supreme Court hat den Weg für groß angelegte Entlassungen bei US-Behörden frei gemacht: Das Oberste Gericht kippte die Entscheidung einer Vorinstanz. Der Personalabbau der Trump-Regierung kann weitergehen - zumindest vorerst.

As a follow up to Israel attacking Iran, the Islamic republic regime (ruling Iran) is being horrific to Afghan refugees/immigrants. Afghans are becoming scapegoats and blamed for spying for Israel. The most vulnerable people get most fucked over - always.
@Roj 🏳️🌈 They are going to do what they need to do to weed out Israeli spies, Mossad is going to try it's best to miscatogorize them as Afgahans or anyone else they can falsely implicate.
