    Anyone who rails against “DEI” is by definition a white supremacist.

    This is such a backwards take. “DEI” could always only end in misery, because it pulls people ahead of the line in a time when the working people are already having a hard time. “Is that person hired because of the colour of their skin or the sex of their body, or have they been hired because they’re actually good?”. It could only make a large part of the population feeling left behind because of their sex or race. What do you think that does to the social foundation of a nation?

    Alas, I have no idea what a good alternative would be, but I always recognized “DEI” as a bad idea. I don’t have to be a chef to be able to tell that this dish tastes like ass, even if I can’t cook for shit myself.

    That does not make me (or anyone else who thinks DEI is ass) a white supremacist “by definition”.

    At the end of the day, it’s the ultrarich hoarding all the money that’s the actual issue - an economy that’s not fair to the citizens of the nation. The top 3 wealthiest persons in the USA have the same amount of money as the bottom 50%.

    Fuck these nazis.

    Are you going to storm the Capitol like your granddads stormed the beaches of Normandy? Are you going to only bitch about it on the internet, or are you actually going to do something about it - storming the Capitol not necessarily has to be a part of it - you can plan a better alternative.








  • to focus on the fact that to be ‘feminist’ in any authentic sense of the term is to want for all people, female and male, liberation from sexist role patterns, domination, and oppression.

    That’s the dumbed definition of a word I’ve seen in quite a while. How about:

    “advocating women’s rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes.”

    They may do it by setting fire to a Theatre just to try to kill a single person, like a terrorist group, but at least this definition fits.

    The whole “Feminism is for both sexes” has always been bullshit. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it.



  • that’s patriarchys fault for instilling into men on a deep cultural level that they need to make money to “provide”

    Maybe that’s the case because it’s been the case since bartering started about 100,000 years ago… You’d rather your daughter marry a guy with a lot of stuff, rather than the guy with little stuff. If you think you can “just” change such an ancient system by introducing Feminism, then oh boy, are we even more fucked than I thought…

    The only real issue is that Capitalism in the US has gone hogwild and concentrated most wealth down to 3 people. Europe is somewhat doing fine in that regard. Don’t we have superrich people? Yeah, sure, but our bottom line is a LOT healthier. Not as healthy as I wish it to be, but fine-ish for now.





  • vscode with the built-in Emmet support.

    Emmet isn’t intimidating, unless you don’t know CSS, in which case it is extremely intimidating.

    a+b:
    <a href=""></a><b></b>
    
    a>b:
    <a href=""><b></b></a>
    
    a*2:
    <a href=""></a><a href=""></a>
    
    div.yeet:
    <div class="yeet"></div>
    
    A combination:
    a>b+i*2.dollah:
    <a href=""><b></b><i class="dollah"></i><i class="dollah"></i></a>
    

    That’s 99% of what you need to know to get started with Emmet.

    Anyway, I used to write 100% hand-written HTML, but switched to using Hugo because: Go’s built-in Templating language I knew from working with K8S, build-times are sub-second, and I can write a page in either Markdown or HTML, whichever I need (or even mix in some HTML in the Markdown!)

    Because of hugo I don’t need to mess around with repeating parts (like the nav menu).

    Only downsides:

    • it strips the comments, which I would’ve loved to leave in for people to read
    • the formatting is my favorite, so I format with prettier before committing

    I use git submodules to have the public/ folder be my Github Pages host repo, so I can just muck about locally, while I do a rebuild (which changes the files in the submodule). Only after a commit, I’ll effectively publish the website.

    Check out the website (mostly for the HTML - the articles are… meh): https://thaumatorium.com/ (no trackers, so no Cookiewall nonsense either :D)
