    One is being exercised as a demonstration and if there were places for women, like gyms it would be out of a feeling for a need for safety. The other was used to implement and maintain a foundationally masculine and abusive structure of power.

    Thank you. The reaction to this is vile. Thousands of years of bullshit for being a woman, one art exhibit, and now the dudes are screaming about re-restricting public space to women as if they came up with a thought provoking exercise.

    Yup. Thousands of years of female exclusion - and it still continues in circles to this day, but one museum and now they're crying about basically re-excluding women from everything as a "thought exercise."

    |You would likely be screaming about the sexism from the top of your lungs if a business refused to take women as customers|

    When has anything women had to say mattered to structures of power, though? Kind of the whole point to any of this.

    Was just saying how I wish there were women only gyms because I don't feel comfortable in coed gyms. Men are fucking creeps and do not respect personal space in my gym going experience. The reason there are no women only gyms in California is because men's rights groups sued them for discrimination. So basically there aren't any safe places to go to the gym for people like me.

    edit: good to see the lack of reciprocity or willingness to look at this issue for what it actually is from certain instances.

    I was just gonna say how fucking ironic it is the US became full on Nazis after defeating them 70 years ago. I know Amurica secretly gave the Nazi scientists a place to hide after WWII but what we've become is next level. Or maybe we've always been this way and it's just become more evident. Either way, this backing of genocide, killing semitic people using the name of semetic people is white supremacist as fuck.

    Thoughts on pinboard's viability?

    Been using Marcin's beautifully created bookmark manager since yahoo killed delicious. It was yahoo that bought it right? I digress. Anyway, I've been paying for his service since he mentioned it would be helpful if the old users also contributed BUT the site's downtime has been rough and unpredictable lately. It's just worrying mostly because Marcin doesn't seem to be minding the incoming questions. Emails go ignored. He doesn't seem to upkeep his pinboard focused google group either. He is active on twitter but one needs a twitter account to see twitter anymore so that's not helpful for non twitter account holders. I'm just generally concerned. Any pinboard users here? It's probably time to start running my own bookmark system isn't it? Your thoughts on the stability of pinboard?

    Yea... and I realize how harsh it sounds but like, I put "lazy" in quotes because I don't think it's really laziness. Maybe more boredom? The environments' just been designed to not invite exploration. Everything is just automatic and instant now. Innovation is driven by need. The need has been engineered away, for the most part.

    People are "lazy" and only social, today. They want to log in, info dump, and not think.

    Before the nadir of social media, when reddit and twitter were coming up, the people online were predominantly young millennials and new tech was exciting. That was a time where netizens were more curious and accepting of online platform learning challenges. In fact, if it was beta or even just more hands on and generally nerdy, that often made the platform more appealing. Then everything became standardized. Mega social media squashed innovative smaller fun projects. Competition got absorbed. And with the mass standardization of the internet came the younger generations who came up just expecting shit to work as they've always seen. Streamlined and with an inclusion of 15 minutes of fame. But, in honesty the biggest snooze is the lack of innovation that drove the old internet drives today's general malaise.

    Times are different. People are bored with internet tech and are therefore less curious. My younget gen z and y co-workers glaze over if I even so much as mention irc or playing around with your own web server. Gen y understands but doesn't care because Twitter and IG governed their highschool experience. Gen z doesn't understand and are kinda boomer-esque in terms of any software comprehension. I've had to teach my interns what Excel even is.

    Times are different. Everything has being standardized, monontonized, monitized, predictable, and generally boring. I think the fediverse would have to become mainstream to appeal to the mainstream. And today's mainstream aren't interested in new platform learning curves unless there's something fun, compelling, and of entertainment value to them.

    Just my old millennial lady take.

    TMobile is censoring lemmy.world posts (and maybe others)

    Just tried to send a friend a story about Parkinson's from lemmy.world and every single time TMobile strips the link from my SMS. They let tumblr.com though. I just looked up if they're actively censoring other sites and, yes. They are. They claim they're only doing this to obscure domains (.xyz and so on) but I just watched a YouTuber demonstrate .com censorship too. So it seems it's less arbitrary than they claim. https://community.t-mobile.com/accounts-services-4/why-is-t-mobile-censoring-our-sms-40519 https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/rskfmx/video_evidence_of_tmobiles_sms_blocking_the_more/ The conservatives are crying about it like it's just them getting censored but it seems it's beyond party lines if I can't share an article about Parkinson's research.
