@stefan I love these websites you share!!
This is #indieweb at its best. Fun, utilitarian and a cool project. I remember finding many such gems while using StumbleUpon
My favourite is if the Moon was the size of one pixel...

The one thing about white Twitter spaces that always baffled me was how often their approach to Black liberation was simply to ignore Black liberators.
I don't mean metaphorically. I mean how Academia Twitter, intellectual twitter, journalist Twitter, all, would just straight up ignore Black activists in the comments.
Tell a predominant white academic that their worldview is incomplete, and doesn't consider people of color, and its crickets 🦗. Always.

And when white supremacy finds a sufficiently sized crack, which is never as big as we’d think, it pushes through until that crack is a gaping chasm of rushing water.
History confirms this narrative— Punks, wellness, cottagecore, furries—all well-meaning, predominantly white spaces that didn’t deal with the hums of anti-Blackness until it was too late.
They chose to get defensive instead of introspective.

It's this festering insecurity that makes communities vulnerable to infiltration of the more caricaturized form of racism. 
Explicit expressions of white supremacy are often forced to live in the margins of polite society. So, it must hide in coded language and micro-aggressions.
But that's not where WS wants to be. It wants to live in the sunlight, out in the open for all to see. So, WS is constantly scanning for cracks in societal norms.

A Fedi-Coming-to-Jesus:
More than even the threat of #Meta, if the #Fediverse does not address its anti-Blackness in the general populace, it will rot the community from the inside out.
You can hate me for mentioning it if you want, but you know it's true. Deep down, you can feel it, too. Sometimes, we’re afraid to admit a problem we don't immediately know how to fix.
And that's fine—it's human. But history is clear about what happens if we don't figure this out.
Kind of a neat website (not made by me), lets you see what the weather was when you were born.
(On my birthday in December, it was rainy with a high of 44.8°F/7°C.)
POSSE: Reclaiming social media in a fragmented world
This rhymes nicely with Mandy’s recent piece on POSSE:
Despite its challenges, POSSE is extremely empowering for those of us who wish to cultivate our own corners of the web outside of the walled gardens of the major tech platforms, without necessarily eschewing them entirely. I can maintain a presence on the platforms I enjoy and the connections I value with the people there, while still retaining primary control over the things that I write and freedom from those platforms’ limitations.
@lil5 Not quite *password* less, as I originally expected. This step is impossible for me to go through because #Firefox on #PC and #Android can't into this protocol. But if it works for others, than that's good. 👍🏻
I once used to use generating and exploiting simple magic links before I moved to #IndieAuth: https://github.com/jaredthirsk/PwdLess
A simple technique called “POSSE” offers the best of both worlds: total control over your own work, while still maintaining a presence on third-party social media platforms.
New story in my People series: Lover Boy
I was reminded the other day of this girl back in high school spending the whole day at a theme park just teasing me.

@mihobu I see blog posts as largely but not necessarily completely immutable. Smaller adjustments that don't affect the overall meaning (tyops, minor addendums, fix broken links, etc.) don't really need to bump the date. Larger updates likely warrant a follow-up blog post maybe with the addition of a "follow-up" link to the previous blog post.
Happy Friday!
I have a question for my blogger homies: how do you feel about dates in the path of your blog posts? For example:
/2024/09/here-is-the-slug
If I update content (and the timestamp) then my path changes. Would it be better NOT to have the year and month in the path? Or do you view posts as immutable things that should not change once published? I'm considering eliminating the Y/m part and just having globally unique slugs.
Thoughts?
The latest #indieweb carnival topic got me thinking about burnout, inspiration and play. Also a drawing of a tiger:
Long live hypertext! – Tracy Durnell’s Mind Garden
This is how I write:
As an online writer, my philosophy is link maximalism; links add another layer to my writing, whether I’m linking to an expansion of a particular idea or another person’s take, providing evidence or citation, or making a joke by juxtaposing text and target. Links reveal personality as much as the text. Linking allows us to stretch our ideas, embedding complexity, acknowledging ambiguity, holding contradictions.
