Comrade Ferret

Another upheaval taking place on social media, this time originating on #Bluesky. If any principled anticapitalist is looking to take the leap into the #Fediverse, they can come check out my open Hubzilla server: hub.workersofthe.world

Define it.

It doesn't matter, they all federate, but it gives you a nice starting point that you can feel at home in, and that isn't owned by a corporation that's "forced" to do evil shit by an evil government.

I want you to get out of this place before it sinks and am happy to be your friend to guide you!

Mastodon Canada A community for Canadians, First Nations, Metis, and Inuit Peoples of the great white north.

ou commies and anarchists can come join mine at hub.workersofthe.world , but there are awesome instances out there for everyone, whether you want to join a simple general regional one like mstdn.ca or a silly dragon-themed one like derg.social .

Every government on the entire planet could literally outlaw the Fediverse and it would still be around, and still be free. You can't stop decentralized media; it'd be like banning having a computer — and that's probably what they would have to do if they wanted to even put a dent in us.

Hey #Bluesky people (I know a few of you follow me!)

As you might be aware, Bluesky has very publicly given in to transphobic moderation policies and fascist censorship laws over the last few days. The #Fediverse is always free. Message me or email ferret@workersofthe.world for help joining!

IMPORTANT: This is no longer my primary instance! Follow me over at @Comrade Ferret

It's a bit of a pain if you have a lot of connections, but please move to hub.workersofthe.world or consider migration to another ActivityPub instance. #WotW (2/2)

Apologies for the whiplash, and hopefully it doesn't come to that, as I really like a lot of Hubzilla features, but I personally see the inability to fully federate with many instances to be a deal-breaker. (5/5)

I've done a lot of testing and a lot of fussing with things, and have concluded that there must just be something weird between running Hubzilla behind Cloudflare, and certain privacy or security settings enabled by some Mastodon admins, (2/5)

I've talked to meow.social's admin and it doesn't seem to be on their end, so I don't know what's going on, but seeing if someone on that side can initiate the connection with me might help.
@Comrade Ferret
Thank you! (2/2)

It might be particularly handy for you and your different accounts on different instances for different languages.
It also chugs a whole lot less. I never did figure out why Friendica is so slow. (4/4)

Registrations are open if you wanna play around in it and help me test it: hub.workersofthe.world (11/11)

Imagine something like a cross between Livejournal and Old Facebook in terms of its UI, where you can do anything from post to walls, to start private chats, to host files and images, to create a website or a wiki. I can see what people mean when talking about it: It's very powerful. (3/11)

My domain doesn't seem to be on your block list. Is there a setting that might prevent a Mastodon instance from being reachable by Hubzilla? (2/2)

You know how cyberpunk as a genre is generally ultimately critical of capitalism, transhumanism, the alienizing aspects of tech, and such? Yeah, Cyberpunk plays all that shit straight instead. 2077 is easily the most progressive entry in the series. (2/2)

This will be my third birthday during which I am unemployed. Not sure where these employers get off.
But at least it's my first birthday with a vagina. That's pretty cool.

And Then, To CodaGame: Solatorobo And Then, To Coda (Solatorobo OST)

LieN is a better composer than Nobuo Uematsu ever was, and they will never get any recognition for it beyond the niche Little Tail Bronx fanbase. youtube.com/watch?v=jJthgbSQqB…

I found a really gorgeous wallpaper ages ago that seemed like it was made for me, but it was in this bizarre almost-4:3 ratio, so I couldn't use it.
Well, I finally cropped and upscaled it. Enjoy.

Now, you can add subtitle in your language to the video so Mr Bean would reach everyone around the world! TAP or CLICK HERE! https://goo.gl/3mjTrrhttp://www.... Ecce Homo (Mr Bean theme) by The Choirboys with Lyric

The beautiful and iconic choir music in the intro and outro of the original Mr Bean series is a single phrase repeated, in Latin:
Ecce homo, qui est faba
"Behold, the man, who is a bean."

So generally, if someone tells you something is a dogwhistle, it's best to err on the side of caution to believe them. Ask them to explain it, but don't discount it; act on it.
*(also I never actually liked World of Warcraft) (10/10)

* I'm an early adopter. (old.)
* I likely played or at least am familiar with World of Warcraft.
And this means they can talk to me about other things. They know that if they say, "Leather belt!" I'll likely find it funny. (3/10)

For people who don't understand dogwhistles, or need a good way to explain to someone what a dogwhistle is, use inside jokes as an example:
"I have a cat who, whenever I open up the door, he makes an absolute dash for it. I call him Leeroy Jenkins." (1/10)

When recommending pieces of media to me, you really gotta understand one thing:
I'm a furry.

@sirlan <( rawrr ) Any chance I can steal that Konqi wallpaper off you? I love the purple.
