What you have to do, as a person who wants to embed a Mastodon post in a comment, is click the ‘3-dot menu’ in the icon bar below the post and choose “Copy link to post”.

Then you can just paste in that link and it should automatically embed. This isn’t thoroughly tested but it’s working so far.

You may notice that the URL you get from using the 3-dot menu is DIFFERENT from the one you get by right-clicking the post’s timestamp and using Copy Link there. Mastodon has a screwy method of mapping post URLs that are hosted on remote instances. The 3-dot menu always gives you the right URL for embedding.

As dumb an idea (on multiple levels) as “National Gun of America” is, if he wants to recognize a specific firearm as an important part of American history, he should choose the M1 Garand rifle or the M1911 pistol. Both served US forces during WWII. Military surplus Garands used to be available for a song via the Civilian Marksmanship Program (established by Congress in 1903). Plus they make that neat “ping!” sound when the empty clip is ejected.

The 1911 pistol was designed in (wait for it…) 1911 by an American designer who invented many weapons that served the US military and civilians for decades. The basic mechanical design of the pistol remained largely unchanged for over 100 years, and is still the preferred ‘platform’ on which many shooters base their competition sport pistols.

I don’t necessarily have anything against the AR-15 itself (*ducks*), but as a *symbol for American firearms history* it sucks ass. Its ancestry is basically the Vietnam war, two multi-decade shit-shows instigated by George W. Bush, and a bunch of mass murders.

I’m switching over to this method from the previous one, which I never really liked because it involved getting the source of the page and scraping it for a certain meta tag, and that meant it did that for every link that reached that point in the process. This is much better, requires no scraping. I hate scraping.

The inability to just go to a URL and click share/retoot, and instead having to manually paste is one of the biggest usability issues of Mastodon.

Unless one considers making it harder for things to go viral a plus point. Which it is for many links, but not this one.

Speaking from a purely historical view, there’s numerous guns over the centuries that could readily be elected as “National Gun of America.” Not only the M1 Garand and the M1911, but I could also nominate the Colt Single Action Army (aka M1873 or “Peacemaker”), the Winchester Model 1873 (aka “The Gun That Won the West”), or the Springfield M1903.

Dubbing the AR-15 the “National Gun of America” is a marketing gimmick, something probably dreamt up by some gun lobby asshole as a way to boost sales.

New York Times wages unfair culture war on transgender community (The Alligator, the student newspaper of the University of Florida, February 20, 2023)

As members of Gen Z, many of us were disappointed when one of the imagineers of our childhoods, J.K. Rowling, made transphobic comments.

As journalists, it was just as bad to hear that activists, public figures and members of the transgender community were unhappy with the coverage of one of the most credible news organizations in the world: the New York Times. In response, the NYT published a so-called defense of Rowling one day later, painting her as the victim of cancel culture, instead of highlighting how her comments hurt the 1.6% of U.S. adults who identify as transgender or nonbinary.

This past week, tens of thousands of NYT readers and hundreds of NYT contributors including trans actress Angelica Ross and trans whistleblower Chelsea Manning decided to say something.

In an open letter addressed to one of the paper’s editors, Philip B. Corbett, individuals criticized recent coverage related to trans, nonbinary and gender nonconforming people.

Primarily, complaints in the letter ask that this level of ignorance stops immediately, with the hiring of new trans writers and editors being called upon. Furthering this issue, NYT decided not to renew the contract of Jennifer Finney Boylan, an opinions writer who is trans.

The letter references “over 15,000 words of front⁠-⁠page Times coverage debating the propriety of medical care for trans children” in the past eight months.

Robots should be like washing machines and Cuisinarts.
They should do one thing.
They shouldn’t look like humans.
They should exist to preserve, not threaten, human dignity and autonomy.

Like my phone, which does only one thing: let’s me order food, gives me directions, helps me practice Spanish, allows me to carry and read multiple books, sends and receives texts, and makes calls.

And my personal belief is that The Animatrix Renaissance is closer to how humans and robots will interact than Terminator. Humans will start accusing robots of taking their jobs and looking too much like them and no matter what the robots do humans will resent them until it gets to the point where the robots have to defend themselves.

re: #43 First As Tragedy, Then As Farce

There’s a right’s battle going on.

Warner Bros. only had rights to the movies, a right sold to them by the Saul Zaentz company many years ago. Tolkien sold the rights (in perpetuity) when he had to pay some taxes back in the 1960’s.

However, if WB did not make movies then they would lose said rights.

Last year a Swedish company bought out the Saul Zaentz company (Middle Earth Enterprises) and said Swedish company claims to be the owner of all movie and merch rights. (Tolkien never sold TV rights, hence Amazon was able to buy those from the Tolkien Estate.)

WB (which owned New Line Cinema) did not make more movies so the Swedish company is claiming that WBD is done with movies.

WBD counted with an anime about the Rohirrim that is slated to come out soon.

But that was not enough, so to up their claim that they still have the rights, WBD is going to have to continue to make movies.

IMO WBD has been so saddled with debt from the merger that they don’t have a lot of options. That’s why HBO series and projects and movie projects have been canceled. It’s also likely why the proposed new Babylon 5 project has taken off.

Here’s a performative dumbasssery lawsuit which won’t go anywhere.

Descendant of donor demands law school pay back $3.3 billion after ‘woke activists’ stripped school name (FOX News Channel, the home of fearmongering “woke,” February 16, 2023)

A descendant of a major donor to a law school demanded that the institution pay back $3.3 billion after a decision was made to change the school name.

Virginia lawyer Robert C. Smith is the great-great-grandson of T.C. Williams, the name behind the University of Richmond’s T.C. Williams School of Law.

Williams was a wealthy 19th-century businessman who owned tobacco companies, a graduate, and a trustee of the University of Richmond. Williams’ family donated $25,000 to fund the law school following his death.

The University of Richmond School of Law voted to adopt a policy that prohibits the university from naming any building, program, professorship or entity “for a person who directly engaged in the trafficking and/or enslavement of others or openly advocated for the enslavement of people.” (Fox News)

The University of Richmond School of Law voted to adopt a policy that prohibits the university from naming any building, program, professorship or entity “for a person who directly engaged in the trafficking and/or enslavement of others or openly advocated for the enslavement of people.” (Fox News)

However, despite Williams’ estate regularly donating to the university, the T.C. Williams School of Law was stripped of its name.

The University of Richmond School of Law voted to adopt a policy that prohibits the university from naming any building, program, professorship or entity “for a person who directly engaged in the trafficking and/or enslavement of others or openly advocated for the enslavement of people.”

The university had found that Williams was a slave owner.

Records show that Williams’ businesses were taxed on owning 25 to 40 enslaved people. The university said personal tax records for Williams show that he was taxed on owning three enslaved people.

(more)

So let’s see here: The law school’s board is the “woke activists.” Got it.

Because Jesus always spoke of weapons.

You know if Jesus could have gotten one, he would have gotten an AR-15. /s

He did talk about weapons.

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and one’s foes will be members of one’s own household” (Matthew 10:34-36).

This person has violated his probation in every way imaginable multiple times and has never seen a jail cell, and when I said “This is white privilege at its worst. If he was black, he would be in prison for ten years,” the boyfriend responded “Are you woke?” I replied “Woke? Motherfucker, I was never asleep!”

If you click the timestamp of a Mastodon post by someone who’s on a remote instance (i.e. not one you have an account at) the URL has an ID that is mapped somehow to the original post ID at the remote site, but I can’t find any way to get the real ID that’s needed for embedding, other than requiring people to use the link from the 3-dot menu, and ignore that timestamp behind the curtain.

Kansas City Star, February 23, 2023

Missouri librarians are suing over a new law that bans sexually explicit material from schools, leading to districts removing hundreds of books — including classic novels, human anatomy texts and Holocaust history books, according to a lawsuit filed in Jackson County Court.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Missouri is suing Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker, in her role and as a representative of all county prosecutors across the state, on behalf of the Missouri Library Association and Missouri Association of School Librarians. The suit argues the law is unconstitutional, amounting to government censorship and the suppression of students’ First Amendment rights.

The law, which was approved last year as part of a larger bill addressing sexual assault survivors’ rights, threatens librarians or other school employees who violate it with a misdemeanor, risking up to a year in jail or a $2,000 fine.

“The law presents specific peril for school librarians, but also endangers the work and livelihoods of public and academic librarians who work with K-12 schools in various capacities,” said Joe Kohlburn with the Missouri Library Association Intellectual Freedom Committee, in a news release. ” … Librarians have been undermined politically in this state for long enough, and the fear of prosecution is an ongoing issue for keeping qualified professionals in Missouri, as well as bringing new people into the profession.”

re: #101 Charles Johnson

I went pretty deep trying to find how Mastodon gets that ID when you use the 3-dot menu - used the Network tab of Dev Tools and discovered it’s not making a network call to do it, so the data has to be somewhere in the page or else it’s calculated somehow. It isn’t in the data attributes of any elements in the 3-dot menu, either.

More research needed.

As far as I know in Colorado any minor child can handle a firearm (law doesn’t specify any age) as long as the minor child is closely supervised by a parent/adult guardian.

re: #124 Ace Rothstein

According to St. Louis Metropolitan Police, “there is no minimum age to lawfully possess a firearm.”

The act of walking down the street with a weapon is not a crime in Missouri. If they act menacing or use it to commit a crime, police can act, but without this law, State Rep. Donna Baringer (D - St. Louis) says it can make it difficult for police to stop a crime before it happens.

“A lot of people are not aware that in the State of Missouri, we have no law on how old you can be to carry a gun, so if an officer was to see a 10-year-old carrying a gun, they can’t arrest them for illegally carrying a gun because there’s no age requirement,” Baringer said.

Why does just Fox get this? So they can cover it up even more? It’s disgusting,” he continued. “All of us, including War Room, we all need to see what’s on those tapes and we need to see all of them.

Christian evangelical “prophet” Charlie Shamp claims he received a “vision” predicting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will be used by God “in a powerful way” for the 2024 presidential election, Rolling Stone reports.

As a recent guest on televangelist Jim Bakker’s show, Shamp asserted, “There’s something about Ron DeSantis that we need to begin to pray for. Because his ultimate future is to have a position in the United States as the president.”

Now, as DeSantis teases a possible 2024 presidential bid, Shamp is publicly hailing the governor as a “‘tree of righteousness’ that God would replant in Washington, D.C. to stand strong against ‘the storms.’”

Shamp shared a ‘vision’ he’d received of two palm trees — one planted in California, the other in Florida. He’d asked, ‘Lord, who are these two palm trees?’ And God responded: ‘This palm tree from California is Ronald Reagan. This palm tree that is in Florida is Ron DeSantis.’
