I am trying to keep a public calendar of all #AikidoSeminars in the Montreal area that I hear about. I may be the only one from the area in the fediverse, but if I'm mistaken, someone else might find this useful.

The image shows a tweet from the user Saul Williams ([@]SaulWilliams). The tweet is written in black text on a white background. The text reads: "Those surprised by ICE should revisit US history. The US has always had a problem w racist mobs deputized or permitted by the state to inflict violence on the so-called 'other'. The ruling class feeds the anger of poor whites against other poor people to prevent class solidarity." The tweet is accompanied by a small black silhouette icon of a person with a halo-like design above the head.

The image shows a tweet from a user named Tori Williams Douglass, with the handle [@]ToriGlass. The tweet is set against a black background with white text. The tweet reads: "as a kid I remember distinctly being told by adults how awful it was that kids in the Soviet Union couldnβt learn real history, they could only learn state sanctioned propaganda. These exact same people are now advocating for banning books and history in the US." The tweet is structured in three paragraphs, with the first two paragraphs discussing the contrast between the past and present, and the last paragraph highlighting the irony of the situation. The user's profile picture is visible on the left side of the tweet, showing a person holding a book.

So you don't think it because sanctuary cities actually protect only illegals who could commit felonies?
So naturally those cities would have been the ones targeted cuz they got the most felons in them, right?

The image shows a social media post with a black background and white text. The post is from a user named "pantsiswithwolves" and was posted 11 hours ago. The user's profile picture is a black and white image of a cat. The text of the post reads: "I think, every year, the richest person in the world should be sacrificed and their wealth distributed to the poorest among us. The rest of the year would be billionaires scrambling to distribute their wealth in an attempt to ensure they arenβt the one to pushed out into the ocean next year. Is that radical enough for you?" The text is presented in a straightforward, unembellished font, and the overall layout is simple and easy to read.

The image is a two-panel meme featuring a young woman in a white t-shirt with a colorful graphic. In the top panel, she is being interviewed, with a microphone visible in front of her. The text overlay reads: "Donald Trump commented about you being an 'young angry woman' who needs 'anger management.'" In the bottom panel, the same woman is shown with a slightly different expression, and the text overlay reads: "Well I think the world needs a lot of more young angry women to be honest, especially with everything going on right now. That's the thing we need most now." The background includes blurred figures, suggesting a public setting, possibly an airport, with security personnel visible. The meme is credited to "[@]kaleidoscopenews."

The image features a black background with white text and two thinking face emojis. The text reads: "WHO REMEMBERS WHEN WOOD SHOP, AUTO MECHANICS, TYPING & HOME ECONOMICS WERE COMMON COURSES IN MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL." The emojis are positioned on either side of the text, with one on the left and one on the right, both with their hands on their chins, suggesting contemplation. The text is in all capital letters, emphasizing the message. The overall design is simple, with a clear contrast between the black background and the white text, making the message stand out.

Looking for fully remote work in Canada.
I'm already registered at LinkedIn, Indeed, HackerX.
Experienced JS & TS developer, artisanal/organic/non-LLM. Is there a common term for that yet?
I absolutely am a Luddite, in the sense that machines that make worse output should not replace or make life worse for competent craftsfolk and customers in order to enrich the owning class faster.

The image is a meme divided into three panels, each with a distinct background color and text. The top panel features a person in a black judicial robe with a red tie, set against a purple background. The text reads: "John Roberts July 1, 2024: Authored the decision granting Trump immunity for official acts." The middle panel shows the same person in a similar pose, with the text: "John Roberts May 12, 2025: The rule of law is endangered." The bottom panel includes a close-up of a hand with the index finger pointing upwards, against a brown background. The text reads: "THIS SHIT IS WHY GOD'S LAST NAME IS DAMMIT." The meme humorously contrasts the judicial decisions made by John Roberts, suggesting a perceived inconsistency in his rulings.

The image features a vibrant background with wavy, overlapping stripes in the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The background has a textured appearance, resembling a paper-like surface. Overlaid on this colorful background is white text that reads: "People's nasty reactions toward pride month are the exact reasons why we have a pride month." The text is centered and occupies a significant portion of the image, making it the focal point. The overall composition emphasizes the message conveyed by the text against the colorful backdrop.

The image is a two-part meme featuring scenes from a television show. The top panel shows a man in a white shirt with red lobster patterns, holding a clipboard, and speaking. The text overlay reads, "HEY, IF JESUS STOOD ON A RIVER, DO YOU THINK HE'D STAND STILL OR MOVE DOWNSTREAM LIKE ON A CONVEYOR BELT?" The bottom panel shows three men sitting around a table in an office setting. The man in the white shirt is reclining with his legs up on the table, while the other two men are seated, one in a blue shirt and the other in a black suit. The office background includes a window, a printer, and a bookshelf.

in reply to Sasu • • •Relatedly, have you heard anything about (or considered setting up) a @peertube instance for collecting & hosting #Aikido videos? The only really serious attempt I've found so far is the channel @additional_techniques There is of course a lot on #YouTube, but that's not without its problems; it could potentially be really nice to have a place devoted to freely sharing knowledge & techniques.

How do I use PeerTube? How do I follow PeerTube accounts from Mastodon? | Fedi.Tips β An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse
fedi.tipsFedi.Tips
in reply to Sasu • • •Yeah, unfortunately Mastodon interprets channels a bit differently to PeerTube, so if you're following from Mastodon you have to follow the PeerTube account rather than channel.
I've raised this with the PeerTube developers, but there's not much they can do about this as it's a decision made by Mastodon's developers.
(If you're following from within PeerTube itself, the channels work fine. It's only if you're following from Mastodon that you have to follow PT accounts.)
