please don't add latex to mastodon it's kinky enough as it is

when someone in so many words says “yeah i’m looking forward to you fucking me”

is kibi a stone dyke

this is probably one of my more contentious English orthography takes

you don’t actually need an apostrophe to show adjectival possession; you can just call it St Nicks Day

@alienghic@octodon.social i would argue that one core aspect of what most people think of as “social media” is commodification of social interaction / behaviours as something to be consumed, or a mode of consumption, rather than something to participate in. i think this is what separates social media from blogs (where the thing being consumed / method of consumption is not as social in nature) and forums/mailing lists/chat rooms (which are designed as participatory systems, although the presence of “lurkers” muddles this definition somewhat).

i do think this is inherently problematic to some extent? i don’t think Mastodon, for example, has freed itself from the problems of conflating social participatory culture with content consumption simply because it doesn’t show ads.

however, i think the problem becomes much worse when that consumption becomes linked into a capitalistic framework.

mozilla isn’t

consider whether the people you look to for safeguarding the web are involved in the cultural heritage sector

consider the web as an institution of cultural heritage

@alienghic@octodon.social how are you defining social media?

(“et” is latin for “and”, which is represented in symbolic logic as ∧. “vel” is latin for “or”, which is represented in symbolic logic as ∨.)

i hate how well this joke works

^ is a caret
ˇ is a carvel

is this cowardice
