"We take every report very seriously"

That's to say, they put on a very serious face when taking the report... to the bin.

The experience of seeing women's profiles on these dating apps:

• the photos are screenshots of other apps, like these aren't even photos of these women themselves
• the photos are so bad that you can't even take a photo that bad anymore with any phone camera of the last decade, like these photos are rehashed from old profiles
• the texts cut off halfway a word at the app's text size limit, like someone pasted it in from another profile without even looking at it
• sometimes several profiles in a row have the same face, sometimes with altered facial features, as if some researchers are running an experiment
• nobody ever reacts

It's almost as if these profiles aren't real.

I know that these dating apps put you in and show you categories that correspond with how good looking they think you yourself are, and that that means that I'm getting the bottom of the barrel since I'm of course in the lowest category myself, but it sure is the bottom.

Twitter is gaining features for online safety / experience and I hope fediverse platforms don't fall too far behind. Now they announced that you can untag yourself from a conversation. I've noticed here too many people trying to get themselves removed from some hellthread.

Though as someone in the replies points out, how is this really different from muting a thread?

Sad to see that people at the #AustrianGP can not feel safe, mainly due to drunk Dutch Max Verstappen fans catcalling and harassing women, shouting racial abuse and homophobic chants. This of course has to stop. I'm hoping other orange wearing fans confront them about it.

There's a glimmer of hope however today that enough can be enough in some circumstances.

There was a time when a politician's position could become 'untenable'...

Now, e.g. in the UK, a Prime Minister can take 'full responsibility' and then nothing happens. Other ministers can have reports published confirming they bullied staff, or wholly mismanaged an evacuation, and nothing happens.

Jenna Ortega may be only a few fleeting moments in Studio 666 but she's the best thing about it and her scenes are worth buying it on iTunes. I'm watching it now and not even skipping to her bits only. I should be careful not to have my dinner coincide with the barbecue scene...

Some technical details for those interested:

• iTunes allows you to buy some films in 4k (UHD)
• They play, in 4k, in the app you have for your Apple TV+ subscription on your Google TV Chromecast (on a Samsung TV, though that's not relevant)
• You can download the film to your PC and get a single .m4v file.
• This file is however not playable in common players like VLC, so it's likely DRM protected.

I stand with all women's right to have an abortion.

Where the full stop at the end of that sentence really carries meaning: no conditions.

I also stand with the right for same-sex couples to marry (and exist) and for the right to use contraception for everybody. Because these are next.

I also dislike all these 'romantic' films and stories that essentially show the human mating ritual as the man chasing the woman showing his persistence and determination and not taking no for an answer to proof he's worthy of her, where she seems to have no other input than judging his performance of this ritual. Where's the woman's wish in all this? Her desires, her love? Are her only desires 'to be loved' and not to love someone herself?

I especially fear that some men may take this as truth and indeed not take no for an answer. And think their feelings are the only thing that counts?

It's that scene in a film where the man exclaims 'but I love you!'. Well, she doesn't love you and doesn't owe you anything.

A lot of these online advice things are based on the assumption that the underlying problem that's holding someone back is the fear of failure or rejection and try to motivate and rationalise you over that fear. For me that's not the problem, I'm ok with failure and rejection, have a lot of experience with it.

Fear of success they sometimes hint at and that's at least partially true.

Fear of ruining someone's day and being blind as to when that may be the case is more accurate for me.
