    Hopefully, this does not relate to the Meta/Facebook NDA & meeting thing.

    I don't know who Candace Owens is, but I feel sorry for her. She apparently has to clown and dance for her White audience, so she shuffles her feet and makes comments that celebrate ignorance. Juneteenth is as made up as Independence Day (July 4) itself.

    I know plenty of people did not know about #Juneteenth until it was finally (after more than 100 years!) became a national holiday, but if you were Black in certain locations, it is one of the longest standing celebrations.

    So Ms. Owens, if you do not want to celebrate, don't celebrate. But don't let yourself be the useful clown to those who like you only because you parrot their own racial insecurities back to them. They will eventually discard you, the same way they discard every Darkie. Because in the final analysis, you're not their kind of people.

      Candace Owens mocks Juneteenth holiday
      from Newsweek
      The conservative commentator faced criticism for calling the holiday commemorating the end of slavery "still ghetto and made up."

    1st son #sonOne shared this link with me. https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/18/us/slavery-myths-juneteenth-blake-cec/index.html [www cnn com]

    When 2nd son #sonTwo was in college, one of his roommates had a family that his family "inherited" as servants for more than a century. So it appears that some enslaved people still remain.

    A Juneteenth Tale.... https://www.propublica.org/article/how-grad-student-discovered-largest-us-slave-auction


    How a Grad Student Uncovered the Largest Known Slave Auction in the U.S.
    by Jennifer Berry Hawes, photography by Gavin McIntyre for ProPublica
    June 16, 5 a.m. EDT

    Lauren Davila made a stunning discovery as a graduate student at the College of Charleston: an ad for a slave auction larger than any historian had yet identified. The find yields a new understanding of the enormous harm of such a transaction.

    @simsa04 I do not know of any such service for #GNUsocial. There are a few very old web-based quick installers from the #StatusNet days, but even then they weren't much better than getting a VPS and installing by hand, because as soon as you wanted to change something, you needed to use ssh, the command line, and edit config files.

    If you still have contact with Lohan G, the artist from Sri Lanka, he hosted an instance somewhere, maybe he has ideas and warnings that would help. Last I knew, @lohang .

    #Meta / #Facebook is building a #Twitter clone under their #Instagram brand. Apparently, there's discussion of various #ActivityPub #Fediverse projects' lead developers signing an NDA and having discussions with them.

    The participants appear to be deleting evidence.

    I'm not spinning a conspiracy theory. I just don't think Gargron or Dansup have any idea what kinds of restrictions an NDA can contain. They risk long-term damage to their projects and some impact on their careers.

    Also tried to call #A1. His phone did not say "The mobile number you dialed cannot receive calls right now", so his service must be turned on."

    Had a delightful #videochat with #GD-2, who will be in middle school soon. She told me that she's enduring long distance communications only because we have not been face to face in some years.

    @fu I do like to catch game streams of certain friends and relatives once in a while. But I don't really watch any others.

    @simsa04 The weird thing about that art class thing is that every conservative I know of claims to like Michaelangelo's works. I don't know if evangelical protestants do, but conservatives say they like them.

    Probably with a fig leaf over the "man parts".

    By the way, today is June 16th, which I traditionally refer to as "Liberation Day". As a child, Liberation Day was the last day of school and the start of months without the prison-like environment.

    @fu I don't like Discord, but there's probably some sort of hooks into streaming software or streaming sites. I have noticed that almost every game streamer seems to use Discord.

    Just got an SMS. She's thrilled with the !RasPi Zero 2. I think she just upened the shipment, so she probably hasn't set it up yet.

    The $EMPLOYER IT group started sending out a daily informational update ... as a PDF attachment that is formatted in a way that is not readable on the company issued phone. No, I'm not going to log into their laptop every day when I'm off work.

    So far, I just let them accumulate for a week or two, then delete.
