I’m conflicted about this advice.
If we do end up in a civil war scenario, it’s important that gun ownership is not severely lopsided against vulnerable groups.
But in the meantime, gun ownership is a massive risk factor for suicide (attempts and fatalities), and trans folks are at a higher risk in the first place.

I loved my Eee PC so much.
I’ve been watching and hoping for a modern ARM equivalent, but haven’t seen anything quite right so far.
Okay, question to people on Lemmy: What’s the right community for asking questions about Lemmy?
Shit is a crucial part of the food web. Please don’t insult shit by comparing it to this fascist.

Disabled the PiHole for a couple days to test something else.
Holy shit, banner ads everywhere on the TV.
Fedicon is just a protocol. You can give/attend a talk wherever/whenever you want. I went outside and gave a talk about peanuts to some crows. Best Fedicon ever.

They try not to.
They actually acquired Fyre.Festival.exe. Explorer just doesn’t show the extension by default.
