Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋

Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.

Have a day!

  • The Democrats laundered the reich-wing narrative that immigration is bad and that there’s a “border crisis” when they put forward the far-right border bill that Trump thankfully tanked (for his own selfish reasons, but still good that it didn’t pass).

    Now, months later, after the anti-immigrant narrative has been laundered and normalized, we get to hear about how immigrants are “eating your pets” and how Venezuelan gangs “are taking over apartment complexes”.

    The ratchet effect is real. We need to stop demonizing people that were born on the other side of a border and Democrats need to grow a fucking spine and push back on these racist lies instead of enabling them.



  • It’s also worth noting that even Sony can’t be bothered to properly emulate the PS3, which has resulted in many PS3-era games being remade into either native PC versions, or PS4/5 titles.

    While it’s true that there are still some PS3-exclusive games that aren’t available in other formats, many of them are, so most people can get pretty far without needing PS3 emulation.

    I only bring that up for anyone that may think they need PS3 emulation, but maybe haven’t been made aware of newer remakes or native PC ports of the games they’re actually looking for.












  • Yes. The US is also authoritarian. Yes, there is a clear media bias when it comes to the headlines that western media outlets are willing to run. In particular, painting non-western countries as more authoritarian than the US (which is sometimes true).

    It’s valuable to point this out. Dog knows the shitty media bias bots used in other communities won’t.

    However, the overall tone of your comment seems to suggest that it’s okay for non-western governments to do authoritarian bullshit, just because the US does. I trust that wasn’t the point of your comment, but I assume that’s why some may not take kindly to it.

    For what it’s worth: my instance disables down votes, so I literally can’t down vote posts I disagree with.


  • Why Haptic

    We built Haptic to make markdown writing simpler and more accessible. We believe that many existing editors are too complex for simple use cases and day-to-day note writing, so we decided to fix that.

    What Makes Haptic Special

    1. Ready to Use: Open Haptic and start writing. No setup needed.

    2. Simple Design: Clean interface so you can focus on your writing.

    3. Write Anywhere: Use Haptic on any computer with internet. Great for public or work computers where you can’t download software.

    4. Made for Everyone: If other editors feel overwhelming, you’ll like Haptic.

    5. Open Source: Self-host your own instance, giving you full control over your setup.


    Haptic is all about making writing easier. We’ve left out extra features to keep things simple and help you get your ideas down without fuss.

    Note: If you’re looking for a markdown editor with plugin systems, complex setups, or feature-packed interfaces, Haptic might not be for you. But if you want something straightforward that just works, give Haptic a try!
