Oh that’s a good point

Maybe it’s a farm or greenhouse with plants in different stages of growth?

I appreciate whoever took the time to find enough berries and pre-berries, and then arranged them so nicely

Thank you for compiling the links :)

These are neat! You could post this in [email protected] and [email protected]

It’s worth a read, but if you don’t have time

What makes this revival uncomfortable is its timing. Phyllis could not respond. Her family, largely gone. There was no one left to correct the record or explain the circumstances. The image became a blank screen onto which modern viewers projected assumptions about drug use, morality, and personal failure.

Yet when her life is examined even briefly, those assumptions collapse. There is no evidence that she was a habitual drug user. No record of repeated arrests. No trail of chaos or criminality. Instead, there is a woman born into economic uncertainty, injured young, living through wartime upheaval, briefly targeted by an unjust legal system, and then settling into a quiet, unremarkable life.

The insult survives because it is easy. The truth requires effort.

The Reddit comment that circulates alongside Phyllis’s image captures something essential about her case. In 1944, freedom was conditional. It depended on fitting into social expectations, on being legible to authority, on not attracting the wrong kind of attention.

The same laws that ensnared Phyllis were used disproportionately against the poor, women, and people of colour. Their eventual repeal is often celebrated as progress, but repeal does not undo the damage done to those who lived under them.

Phyllis Stalnaker did not become a symbol in her lifetime. She did not campaign, protest, or write memoirs. Her story matters precisely because it is small. It reminds us how many lives were quietly constrained by laws that have since been forgotten, and how easily a single photograph can erase complexity.

Her revival online offers a choice. She can remain a joke, or she can be recognised as what she was: a woman shaped by her time, subjected to its injustices, and deserving of more than a label.

I think he still has majority voting power in Facebook

The blocker runs in the main browser process rather than as a web extension, which means it isn’t subject to the limitations that extension based blockers like uBlock Origin face.

Waterfox is a fork of Firefox though, why would it face the limitations that chrome has?

I agree, rather I was surprised that threads grew big enough for people to be trying to migrate away from it.

In my area / friend circles, I don’t know anyone that continued to use Threads after the initial launch. However, there are people using Mastodon, Bluesky, and Twitter

especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to X or Threads.

That many people use Facebook Threads? That sounds like saying “especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to Reddit or New Digg.”
