How adorable 😭😭 what a hoot

I also love bald eagles (lucky enough to have one as a neighbor) who make a little beepity chirping I like. People feel the need to dub over it.

Who tf named screech owls that then

I can’t get browsing by hashtags to work on pixelfed itself. Only shows like 3 results.

Lol disregard my last comment about the Google News trick they made it worse. FFS

There needs to be a move to model more like Invidious where there is a database. Youtube’s got a helluva lot more to index and it’s managed. The account tokens thing was a bit unserious.

In the meantime if you need rss, try this:

https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=site:twitter.com/benjaminnorton

just swap out the name.

you have to paste the URL into an archive website lolz unless u want to login. very cumbersome & no retweets. i like having a retweet free RSS tho, no overlaps

also there are mastodon mirrors of twitter accounts and stuff that can be done

anyways, the site SUCKS. this should have been something to hold us over while people come to their senses and leave

You’ll hear about it thru the grapevine. I’m not talking about it on reddit sorry

People wouldn’t have to flock anywhere if things were more connected ;_;

Mostly, but I don’t want Twitter to take further measures!

Not really helpful if you need to access the account but have you tried Piped or Invidious

Shhhh let them think it died 🤫

Do I make money off blogging? Not by shitposting about people online, or explaining to people why shows they listen to are drivel. For instance I went into the archives of a war show someone recommended and looked up what they were saying about Ethiopia around the time their PM got banned off facebook.

I have published some stuff which I guess constitutes working in writing articles but that’s not how I make a living primarily.

I’m just a hater on my own time mainly, saves me the effort of listening to bad shows by immediately finding their flaws lolz

Well yea I’m clearly in agreement with ya since I only told OP this due to them expressing a worry abt privacy, they deserve to know. I almost began shoving instructions for switching to Linux down their throat haha

Have you ever heard the phrase “fool me twice, shame on me”

That’s fine lol I got too focused on late 20th century history and I’m not that old, I have a lot of reading to do about general historical trivia too. Like I don’t know about, say, Chinese historical epics and shit, so I’ve been looking that stuff up recently with my brother. Also check out Samir Amin and Andre Gunder Frank and Immanuel Wallerstein and Fernand Braudel if you ever want to get deep into that world systems theory shit. Ancient India and China and western Asia.

Hudson’s work is a big influence of David Graeber who seems more popular on this site due to his presence at Occupy and stuff but I find the writing abt the monetary history of the ancient mediterranean and the roman empire and shit much more compelling.

Oh yeah I heard that part already, it’s more abt the org being compromised. WIRED regularly publishes articles that are clearly in coordination with the state department, by the way.

I’m too noided about this stuff, I have no reason to talk shit about Mullvad other than the locations of their servers and knowing that feds have high level wiretaps at datacenters that pretty much none of us can get around, and I’m still talking shit about them

Go listen to feds talking about their training in “physical penetration” if you want to know more lol. They go brag about this shit

That’s valid but I would still go with options that don’t bill themselves as private only to hand over info to feds. I like Tuta.mail because they don’t try to get a phone number out of me lol. Cloud services are abundant. You do you though, I get the feeling neither of us is slinging MDMA and privacy is just a technical requirement.

Oh also if you look up Michael Hudson’s appearances he tend to visit really cool shows

He talks about the history of central banking in the United States, Europe, and Japan, and how we created the neocolonial structure that persists today, criticizes neoliberal far right banking policy and exposes how it’s just there to strip the world of resources for the USA.

The shows on the Geopolitical Economy Report on Youtube are really freaking good, best 20th century history podcast I’ve listened to.

I appreciate your recommendation, by the way, I will get around to it

Why are you downvoting losers lol??? They clearly are able to give your shit to police even if you pay them $50/year or something. You’re welcome, redditors

Yeah I mean I would recommend a tiny fraction but for every part there’s 200 parts Joe Rogan and mysteriously high production value unknown cryptocoin podcasts+websites that were created to trick our meemaws and pawpaws
