It's not your water bottle, honest. It's not your plastic storage containers. It's not the deli take out. It's not in the soil. (I mean, it is, but this isn't where so much of it gets into _us_.)
I occasionally watch Formula 1. Everyone who talks about microplastics needs to see how much tire debris is left on the tarmac from each test, qualifying, and race.
I'm pretty sure that my plastic use in my entire lifetime won't even touch the sheer *excess* of a single F1 weekend.

almost-halfway through Shinkenger so far, I like it. I was wondering how this would hold up compared to my memories of Power Rangers Samurai and it's surpassed it, the characterizations are great and there's a steady progression that I felt was lacking in Liveman. the Kamen Rider Decade episodes are also good, I just finished those; still have not idea what this nigga's deal is but I'm a little more motivated to find out in the future.

I don't think people are retarded. I think some people really just need to have a captain on the ship. To them Columbus will always be the one who "discovered America" simply because he was the captain, even though the new continent was literally named after Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer who actually charted the land.
Despite all the ongoing news, I have a good friend who saw through all the Scamdemic/vaccine nonsense, but is still a 100% true believer in Trump. The Epstein situation or the way Trump has destroyed the economy with his intentionally retarded tariffs, have not changed his view. He's also still 100% onboard with Elon being a great man trying to change America, and will either not consider or handwave away Elon's massive data mining operations, brain chipping and technocratic beliefs.
These are the classic "trust the plan" people, who can't talk about specific policies, only about the specific people they want to guide the ship.
Extreme heat and extreme rainfall are now becoming "a new normal" in South Korea.
"At Muan International Airport in South Jeolla, an automatic weather station recorded 142.1 millimeters (5.6 inches) of rain in a single hour β equivalent to 11 percent of the regionβs average annual rainfall β through the night."
Korea is trapped in a punishing cycle of extreme heat and torrential rain. As soon as a weeklong bout of record-breaking heat had ended, powerful downpours began sweeping across the country on Sunday.

You don't need Gentoo to install Pleroma lol. Easier on Debian
Gentoo is a waste of time, even with it's binary packages. Slow AF to do system updates and install packages. I even had a 6 node distcc cluster to compile faster and it got annoying
@verita84 @CozyLife I got linux mint it easy distro to learn then my next distro gonna be to follow bronze and many other fedi admins one has to learn gentoo then install the pleroma

Air quality not great in Ventura/LA counties, drift from the Gifford Fire.
A good reminder, if you don't already have a HEPA filter (Corsi Rosenthal boxes FTW!), it's a good idea to have one available in case of wildfire smoke drifting in your direction. (they are also handy if someone has a respiratory disease in your house, for removing pollen for the air for allergies, and clearing your house of the worst AQI pollutant I have found exists -- well done bacon! Smells good... but not good for your lungs, LOL)
Watch: With two minute updates, The US EPA PM2.5 Air Quality Index (AQI) is a number used by US government agencies to communicate to the public how polluted the air currently is or how polluted it is forecast to become.

An analogy came to mind when reading it: if the cloud is feudalism, self hosted is sustenance farming.
Sustenance farmingβ¦ Well, it sucks, itβs brutal, itβs awful. No wonder people want centralized infrastructure! Groceries arenβt a concept in sustenance farming, neither is something like βfood sensitivitiesββyou just die or accept the feudalism because you have no other choice.
Some people happen to like sustenance farming and the idea of living fully off the grid! But theyβre not normal. Thatβs fine, but itβs not workable for most people and carries an enormous amount of unstated privilege. For example: the person in the article casually buying a server and dropping a few thousand dollars on it, setting up several complicated systems in it, and βonlyβ spending a few weeks of free time doing so? Privileged. Fun hobby if you like that, though!
The bad part, in my opinion, is that our only choices are currently techno fascismβ¦ Or the sustenance farming that killed almost everyone who attempted it. Thatβs not a great set of choices and it doesnβt have to be like that.
I liked the reference to community clouds in the ending of the article. It reminded me very much of Common Pool Resources that Elinor Ostrom talks about, or the emergent strategy of adrienne marie brown. I need to read more Ursula Franklin, but I suspect her writing is right at home here too.
Iβd like to live in a world where communities uplift and support each other and are able to do so. Iβm doing my best to help make that a reality, even if Iβve had to spend the last year or two putting my own mask on first π

Hayley Williams (of Paramore et al) is no longer bound by her record label. She just released 17 songs, free to the internet.
This is her completely without restriction.
A couple choice lines:
"They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all the children. They say that Jesus is the way but then they gave him a white face. So they donβt have to pray to someone they deem lesser than them."
Then follows it immediately with:
"The South will not rise again Til itβs paid for every sin Strange fruit, hard bargain Till the roots, Southern Gotham"
Strange Fruit. Think Billie Holiday's haunting song. Till the roots... rip up the roots so that tree doesnt grow again (with possible entendres to Emmett Till, etc).
I've heard people describe this song as an incantation, as a binding spell. I can imagine hundreds of thousands or millions singing and chanting this magic.
