Hey, Libs,

Anarchism has a bad rap due to propaganda. The state hates anarchism. It's a viable threat to those in power because people can live, and live well, without kleptocrats ruining everything. You do anarchism every day without even knowing that's what you're doing.

When you get together with your friends and everyone gets up at the end of the evening and helps tidy your place before going home: that's anarchism.

When you volunteer to take care of a neighbor's pet because they had to go out of town: that's anarchism.

When the person in line in front of you at the grocery store is a few cents short on their bill and you pay it for them: that's anarchism.

When you shovel your neighbor's driveway because they can't do it themselves and it's snowing (or even just to do it for them for no reason whatsoever): that's anarchism.

Anarchism is people organizing themselves to do things without being told or forced by someone else to do them. That's it at its core.

It's not scary. it's not evil. A better world is possible and you can participate in it, you can bring it into being.

No gods, no masters, no hierarchy, no oppression.

@aartaka Love your approach to keyboard navigation btw! Made an extension a while ago to fuzzy match inputs/buttons to focus onto. Do you have anything fancy for handling duplicate names?

Love how many niche web browsers are out there!

@aartaka Good to know. I've been meaning to do more userscripts stuff in my web browser @agregore so I'll make sure to make these easily discoverable when I do. 😸

@aartaka maybe have a script marketplace be a priority so new users can onboard more quickly and you can form a community?

@tychi Funky! In my case I literally just needed to stitch some clips. Tbh I usually use ffmpeg on the cli 😅

Why doomscroll when I can binge aqua teen hunger force?

@ellyxir ended up geting a shotcut AppImage because my Arch mirrors are F'd apparently

Learning Kden Live so I can make a 30second meme just for my partners

@fleeky navigate using your third eye 👁️👁️👁️

Got a solid three hit combo going though. Almost got some airtime. 💀

One of my cats teleported into my legs while I wasn't paying attention while walking. We made up pretty quick but she was pretty appalled by my barbarism.

Fun fact: I prefer to operate in almost complete darkness. Stalking around by memory and night vision.

Spending my only vacation all year sick apparently 😎👍

@ellyxir That's pretty wholesome for a school dream. Mine are usually non stop stress 😅 This week it's been non stop fever dreams about trying to balance abstract values which made no sense 🥲

@ellyxir Repeat the above like a pirate, then in chinese, then in russian. Then count to a million with no pauses. Urgent!!!

You can tell I don't use AI for my speech because I make zero sense in unique ways sometimes.
