Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.
This week was a bit too much. There's lots of despair in the air. So, if you have anything nice to share, now is the time. I'll start with sharing a photo of a very tired cat who definitely spent all night protecting our sleep.
You get bonus points if your alt text causes people to think "aaaw".

やっとこ帰宅。寒い、寒すぎる
Supporting the #Minnesota #GeneralStrike by staying home, making brownies, and having my partner skip work today. George, Winnifred, and Maia (the cats) are doing their part by not having a job 😂
Alright I’m out for the night. Cat cuddles are calling
I say this not for pity but to share experience and to help keep people better prepared and informed.
Shortly before leaving the facility I started cramping. I have been exposed to teargas many times, it typically takes me two days before exposure begins having noticeable effects on my cycle. 24 hours on munition heavy nights a few times but it’s usually two days or so for me.
I knew something felt off. I typically listen to my gut but I ignored it. I was wearing a full face gas mask. During that last wave of teargas, I was really holding it together while filming. Mostly because my eyes were burning. I took off my mask to clear my eyes after the feds retreated and after inhaling one time I couldn’t breathe. I literally couldn’t breathe. I made it to the sidewalk and was on my knees when a medic came over to help. Drinking water helped the burning feeling a little bit, as it had felt like I swallowed fire. Teargas is uncomfortable obviously but not usually *that* bad and intense. For me anyways. I cleaned off and took a break and remained otg for a few hours. I felt better.
Idk if it’s the adrenaline wearing off or what but I have since felt a lot worse. My skin is decontaminated, but my head is pounding, my stomach is killing me and I feel extremely nauseous.
Turns out the feds deployed HC gas tonight. (Which is not green smoke that many think it is. I have another thread on this I will link in next post)
Luckily the wind was working in everyone’s favor tonight. But fuck.
Moxie knows I had a hard day today. She's sitting with me.

Good morning Fedi friends!
Using my GoToSocial account and its glorious 5000 character limit to clear the air about #WSocial and my opposition to it / why I want to speak up:

Yes, I'm well aware there are bigger problems in the world but the battle I picked is: rebellion against techbros / promotion of FOSS and the fediverse.
Wishing you all a lovely Sunday, stay safe and resist ✊

5. 어려움은 나를 더 강하게 만든다
お父さんのデスクにあった消しゴムかす払い用？の羽を持って、毎日飛ぶ練習をしていた。布団を上げたとこに舞う埃に朝日が差して、窓から坂道みたいに見えている光を昇っていこうとしたこともある。
どの作戦も失敗し、当時から理系だった兄には「ばかじゃないの？」と言われていた。飛べないままだけど、やっぱり鳥は好きです。

I love how his left cheek's fluff still has the shape of the cushion he was resting his face on before I woke him up to get this picture. Gosh, am I annoying!
Simba (Earth) bolted up from the basement with his tail all puffed up. Twice. Ten minutes apart. It is not fully clear why he did this, but his human thinks maybe he spotted a friend outside?

Totoro joins #Caturday as a shoulder cat. His claws are very sharp. This is not very comfortable for the human. Spoiler tag for selfie.

"이는 남녀를 바꿔도 마찬가지입니다. 결국 독자들이 ‘불편함’을 어느 정도까지 감수할 것인가, 작가 입장에서 ‘정치적 올바름’을 어느 정도까지 지킬 것인가의 합의가 되어야 자신과 다른 성별의 서사를 포용하는 문화가 생기는 거겠죠."
