How much code wasn’t written, how many contributions not made, how many ideas never expressed, because people refused to participate in FOSS because of people like RMS and his supporters? The community is already divided. Removing RMS and his ilk is how we start to heal it

I wrote a Chrome extension on Twitch that highlights when you are on a GitHub repository belonging to an RMS open letter of support signator. You can download and install the extension from here: github.com/aaronbassett/r…

if there were a dictionary definition of "talking out of both sides of one's mouth," this would be the illustrated example

If Priti Patel doesn’t have to face trial over her expenses then we truly live in a fascist state because it’s not possible to spend £77k on eyebrows. This is blatant money laundering lol

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as GNU/Linux, is in fact, Linux. GNU is not an operating system unto itself, but rather a few POSIX-compatible utilities promoted by an organization led by an abuser.

Funny how people act like it's so shocking and awful when poor people in faraway countries turn to terrorism just because an occupying army destroyed their homes and killed their family, but when they watch Star Wars they still recognize that Luke Skywalker is the good guy

if the bristol police didn’t want their vans to burn they shouldn’t leave them alone at night in the street being all flammable wearing provocative decals

$2000 became $1600. Biden promised to decriminalize marijuana, now he's firing staff who used it. You can see why I don't trust Democrats, right?

You can get a very helpful insight into what politicians & pundits really feel about men who sexually assault women by recalling how they treated an American President who boasted about being one.

Hey Stewie. Go fuck yourself eh? Ever considered that the shitheads who make the Covid laws are the same shitheads who are trying to pass laws to prevent our right to protest, you know like in place like North Korea? If that's what you want, I'll pay for your one way ticket.

Why is it that so many anti-maskers are also anti-immigrant, anti-Islam, anti-BLM, and anti-European? Is there a particular template that they're all cut from?

Ted Cruz continues to be a trailblazer as he becomes the first Hispanic person to flee FROM Texas TO Mexico because of ICE

why are people who hate mexicans always going on vacation in mexico

blaine capatch (@blainecapatch)Thu, 18 Feb 2021 16:05 GMT

I get it now. Ted and Heidi Cruz wanted their children to be safe, to have basic sanitary services like heat and running water, to leave behind a third-world apocalyptic nightmare for a safer place. Like so many parents before them, they decided to cross the Mexican border.

NASA has spent $2.5b on a project that puts a sophisticated machine on Mars. It works flawlessly. Britain has spent £22b on a track and trace system. It has never worked properly.

Growing up I never thought I would be in this job (mainly because I wanted to be a Jedi). I'm honoured that on this day last year the PM asked me to serve as Chancellor. It's been incredibly tough but thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way.

You can break into the United States Capitol, threaten to murder its leaders, kills its police officers and get a pat on the back from Republican Senators. BUT if you enter the United States at the age of 4, not knowing what’s going on, you will be punished forever. 😔

I am happy to work with Republicans on this issue where there’s common ground, but you almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago so you can sit this one out. Happy to work w/ almost any other GOP that aren’t trying to get me killed. In the meantime if you want to help, you can resign.

Putting Kamala Harris as VP into perspective.See the red box? Until then, she would have been enslaved.See the blue box? Until then, she couldn’t vote. Yellow box? Until then, she had to attend a segregated school. The green one? Until then she couldn’t have her own bank account

Watch this. Conned. Fooled. A useful dupe, who bought the whole lie, and regurgitated it without thought. Is there a word for "angry at somebody for throwing the hand grenade that blew off their own foot; but simultaneously feel sorry for them"?
