This might be a good occasion to remind you that I've mostly moved to Mastodon some time ago and you might want to follow me there 🙃 flausch.social/@piegames
Unfollowing a bunch of folks here, nothing personal. If you have a Mastodon account, please link it in your profile so that fedifinder.glitch.me/ may find it, I'll follow you there then.
Also now is a good time to archive all your data while the services are still running …

Schon wieder ein neues Überwachungsgesetz von Schwarz-Grün in Hessen: Unter anderem soll nun es eine Generalbefugnis für die #Polizei zur #Videoüberwachung an Bahnhöfen, Sportstätten, Einkaufszentren, Flughäfen und Packstationen geben. Ohne Prüfung der Erforderlichkeit! #hessen

The best side effect of my comics about bun sightings (xkcd.com/1871) is that every spring, whenever my friends see a cute baby rabbit in their yard, they send me photos.
They’re always adorable, but I think this one, from Kelsey Harris, is my absolute favorite.

Der Bundestag verabschiedet heute das #Urheberrecht. Obwohl es insgesamt eine Verschärfung ist, können Deutschlands Feuilletons es nichtmal ertragen, dass Memes & #FanFiction künftig legal sind. Vielleicht ist ihr Kulturbegriff aber auch einfach veraltet. zeit.de/2021/21/urheberrecht…

For the past month, I've experienced coordinated harassment via 4chan on one of my GitHub repos. Yes, the platform I work on. Doing much better after taking time off & getting support from my circle. 💜 I'm ready to share my experience, so here it is: tinykat.cafe/on-all-that-fuc…
