There's so much going on that I can't post disapproving posts for every single thing. So here's just one blanket one.

It's all wrong. You know, everything. All of it. Not just in the US, but it's happening, or starting to, everywhere. The rule of law is abandoned and people are shipped off to uncontrolled foreign prisons. People's right to be who they are is removed. Institutions to help and better other people are disbanded.

We need to get back to caring about other people. Care about the next generation's ability to get educated. No matter the skin colour, no matter the social class, care about whether people can buy food. Care about people getting a fair trial. Care about people whether they are your gender or not, or have the gender you think they have, or even have a gender.

Care about other people, no matter what kind of 'other' they are.

If your world view consists of white cowboy hats and black cowboy hats you may want to check whether your white cowboy hats aren't just black cowboy hats that have been spray painted white.


Pinned post, about following from multiple addresses

Hi, when I follow someone I usually do this from multiple accounts, with different servers and platforms. This is partially as backup. It’s also because different software has different features. E.g. at the moment of writing I mainly post from my Friendica server, but it doesn’t yet support polls, or account migrations. So I also follow from my Pleroma server, which does notify me someone has migrated.

I also sometimes use platforms that support nomadic identity, that allows my channels on multiple servers to be synced. From software that doesn’t support that, a follow request looks like multiple separate requests from those channels.

Now watching series four of The Worst Witch, aka series one (and only) of Weirdsister College, aka the one where Felicity Jones is back. They're now at college, Mildred and Ethel have to room together and go head to head. I remember this series to be more intense and deeper than the previous ones. I'm playing this from my own (German) discs.

One of the episodes on this dvd has the wrong audio track, of another episode. So I had to watch it with the German dub instead.

Episode 6 Jessica Fox comes in as Enid Nightshade. Instantly quite a character.

It has been my theory (without knowing the books) that originally the idea was to have Mildred go up against Ethel as the standard good vs evil battle. But because Mildred is 'the worst witch', and Ethel some sort of perfect witch with lots of talent, these stories were not going to work very well if magic was to be used in the battles. In comes Enid, also without morals, also very good at spells, but she takes an instant dislike to Ethel so she joins Mildred just to upset her.

Teaching the kids puffication without also teaching them repuffication is quite irresponsible.
