GOOGLE: you need more storage bbygirl.

ME: okay...why?

GOOGLE: you just do. I can sell you more storage if you want.

ME: no I don't want to pay for storage. literally the only selling point for you guys is you were free.

GOOGLE: well ok then just delete some of this stuff

ME: what stuff?

GOOGLE: can't tell you it's a secret ;)

ME: well then how the hell am I supposed to delete it??

GOOGLE: here's a hint - 182,047 photos.

ME: what the actual fu

GOOGLE: you're welcome.

ME: why are these here!?!

GOOGLE: I saved them for you bbygirl.

ME: why though!?!

GOOGLE: in case you wanted them later duh

ME: listen to me very very carefully. I will never, ever, need to use this very specific meme involving pasting my friend's face over the *slaps car* guy, a second time.

GOOGLE: but what if you doooo tho?? what will you do if you need it again?? Sure you don't want to buy more storage instead??

ME: I literally won't. [DELETES IT]

GOOGLE: well okay then but surely you won't do that with the other 182,04—

ME: [DELETES THE OTHER 182,046 PHOTOS]

GOOGLE: *gasp*

ME: okay how about now

GOOGLE: *sputtering* What. No. That didn't— that didn't help. It's still full.

ME: literally how.

GOOGLE: soooo full.

ME: there's literally nothing in this folder anymore.

GOOGLE: mmmm so much yummy data.

ME: you made a backup didn't you. TELL ME you don't make another backup.

GOOGLE: don't be silly bbygirl. I didn't make one single additional backup of all your delicious yummy personal data, documents, and photos.

ME: ...

GOOGLE: I made seventeen.

Die sanktionierten Geschäftsführerinnen von @hateaid in der Presseerklärung:

“Wir fordern von der Bundesregierung und der europäischen Kommission ein klares Signal, dass das nicht hinnehmbar ist. Ansonsten wird sich keine zivilgesellschaftliche Organisation, keine Politikerin, keine Forschende und erst recht keine Einzelperson in der Zukunft trauen, Missstände bei US-Tech-Konzernen anzuprangern. Und europäische Gesetze sind dann nicht mehr das Papier wert, auf dem sie geschrieben wurden.”

Officer: “Do you know how fast you were going?”

Sparky: “I kinda’ feel like that’s your job.”

That's what the film The Lighthouse was about.

Das was aus meiner Sicht in der politischen Debatte die Stärke von sozialen Medien war, dass Leute in Machtpositionen auf einmal einem für sie unerwarteten Korrektiv gegenüberstanden, das ihre oft völlig bescheuerten Ideen entzaubert hat, ist eh tot.

Also natürlich gibts andere Effekte die gut für marginalisierte Gruppen sind.

Aber das was ich das tolle an sozialen Medien fand, das Leute, denen man sonst idr nicht zugehört hätte, wenn sie gute Punkte hatten, nicht ignorieren konnten, ist tot.

Ach so ne #Klarnamenspflicht ist doch super, dann sind einfach bald alle unsere Ausweise in mehr als einem Datenabfluss und Debatten in regulierten sozialen Medien werden nur noch zwischen Faschisten geführt.

Marginalisierte Gruppen haben sich doch eh schon weitestgehend aus den Räumen, die von so ner Regulierung betroffen wären zurückgezogen. Und die Faschos müssen dann keinerlei Gegenrede mehr fürchten. (Die heute ja auch schon quasi nichtmehr vorhanden ist)

Scientists discovered "a giant millipede stretching nearly nine feet in length. Preserved in a sandstone boulder, the fossil belongs to Arthropleura, an extinct genus now confirmed as the largest land invertebrate in Earth’s history"

34 years ago today, the #SovietUnion officially ceased to exist. December 26, 1991

Apologies to tankies (not really) but it was a very good thing

Not liking the #Soviet Union has nothing to do with loving #capitalism or loving the #West, it's about despising #imperialism

Anyone who has a problem with my sentiment:

Talk to someone who lived in #EasternEurope or under the Soviet umbrella

We must defeat #plutocracy in the West

The Soviet way is not the way

Happy #SovietUnionCollapseDay

hah i remembered #whatDayisIt #thebigblur #blursday

Was once in an elevator with Gillian Anderson. She looked like she had the flu at the time. I'm a massive X-Files fan, but I managed to keep my cool. I just politely told her that I love her work, then she shook my hand. A day later I got the flu. Thanks Gillian, best flu ever.
