Maybe not "revolutionary" but in the coming years I will do my best to try and be a source of positivity in what I do. Whether that's my daily life, Pokémon events, wrestling events, or anything else. Life is going to be hard enough, I'll try and make it better in at least some small way when I can.

Fuck em

Microsoft is plugging more holes that let you use Windows 11 without an online account

Microsoft is disabling the best local account workarounds

Honestly I was probably going to go this route with the decision to block using a local account in 11 and being forced into using a Microsoft account, but I'll take more than one reason.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 10h

Despite the fact that my PC could easily run Windows 11, it's listed as not compatible, so rather than spend a bunch of money I don't have to "upgrade" I guess I'm going to learn how to use Linux. 🖕 Micro$oft

There do not exist any reforms that would make ICE or DHS acceptable going forward. Both must be abolished.

Like for real. The plot of Spirited Away is about a kidnapped child forced into a life of indentured servitude in realm of gods after her mother and father are magically forced into becoming pigs by a witch. Meanwhile, Princess Mononoke exists.

Whenever someone uses Ghibli or Miyazaki as a synonym for "quaint, charming, unthreatening" I'm always like "bro did we watch the same movies?"

Dude's a net positive overall and I don't see why it needs to go beyond that. I'm way more radical now after discovering clips of him a few years back. It's boring but that's kind of the end of the story?

Fear of deportation is keeping pregnant immigrants from accessing health care. The same fear is keeping immigrant domestic violence victims from calling for help.

Given that homicide is the leading cause of death for pregnant people, this is all terrible.

And it’s certainly not public safety.

“My biggest fear is going to the hospital."

Pregnant immigrants are terrified ICE will show up outside the doctors' office or at the hospital. So they're skipping the care necessary to ensure a healthy birth.

Some experience dangerous complications as a result.

ICE fears put pregnant immigrants and their babies at risk

Fear of deportation is deterring people without permanent legal status from critical care. Doctors are worried for their health — and the health of their pregnancies.

Fascism in America will manifest as a series of atrocities viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until there's a pounding on your door.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
