In the final part of my 5-part series on the history of blogging and RSS, we come to 2003: when RSS Readers like NetNewsWire and Bloglines burst onto the scene, and when I made my official entrance into the blogosphere with a Radio Userland blog called Read/WriteWeb. Also: Google buys Blogger, WordPress debuts, and 16-year old Aaron Swartz live-blogs a Dave Winer keynote. cybercultural.com/p/blogospher… #InternetHistory #BloggingHistory
In 2003, the read/write web becomes a reality when blog software enables anyone to write to the web. Meanwhile, RSS Readers like NetNewsWire and Bloglines bring distribution to the blogosphere.
If you read to the end*, you'll notice I plugged the fediverse:
"If you have comments, well this isn't a blog...but you can tag me on the fediverse [links to my Mastodon a/c]— the closest thing we have today to the blogosphere of 2003."

It is I, the #OutsideGirl! And today I have received double jabs, both for The Rona and the seasonal flu. Go get your jabs if you can kids, even if it's expensive these strains are rough and you don't want to get sick for weeks and weeks!

@eliza I know folks use pot for other types of pain relief, and it works on different mechanisms than simply numbing the nerves. It more just tells your brain to not care about the pain
@MxSadie I was moderately successful on the darker half of red when they cranked it to high power with an alexandrite laser for like 9 sessions. But have them do a few test patches before you buy it

As we conclude 2025, Amazon Threat Intelligence is sharing insights about a years-long Russian state-sponsored campaign that represents a significant evolution in critical infrastructure targeting: a tactical pivot where what appear to be misconfigur…
In #Russia #Moscow suburb #Odintsovo a teenager broke into a local school and wandered with a knife, asking children about their nationality. He spared those who said “Russian” and murdered a 10 years old Tajik pupil. Inscriptions on his helmet say “KILL KIKES, SAVE RUSSIA” and “RACE. FATHERLAND. REVOLUTION”. The patch on his vest (black sun) is self-explanatory, it’s used by many nationalist groups, including “Rusich”. “13/52” is a racist slur targeting Black people.
What have African American people - because that’s specifically what 13/52 refers to - have to do with “kikes” and Russia is well beyond me, but I guess that’s the kind of brain rot you’re experiencing from overexposure to Russian xenophobia.
It reminds me a bit of how in 2020-2021 #COVID19 #Russia was pumping anti-vaxx propaganda through their language RT editions in foreign languages while RT in Russian was doing something entirely opposite - promoting “Sputnik” vaccine. Russians were paranoid enough to know, when RT in Russian says one thing, they need to verify it at other sources, and they verified at all the Western anti-vaxx blogs that flourished for RT money.. and translated the anti-vaxx bullshit back into Russian, driving down their own vaccination rates 🤦

l'ho conosciuto grazie a @Lucatermite e non lo avevo mai sentito prima pur essendo un grande fan (ho consumato siamese dream) Beh per il confronto l'altro video è qui, fatto da altra mia band che adoro, i Nine inch nails: mastodon.uno/@filippodb/115729…

@fucinafibonacci mi ha ricordato che i Nine inch nails hanno fatto la nuova colonna sonora dell'ultimo Tron e che è spettacolare, quindi ecco qua questo pezzo, che compie 20 anni e non li dimostra, anzi!

ah questo video non lo conoscevo. Proprio ieri, a proposito di Scarlett, avevo postato "La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla" per il 450esimo anniversario della morte di Johannes Vermeer. Invece questa è una nostra versione degli Smashing Pumpkins mastodon.uno/@fucinafibonacci/…

Please look after our palestinian friend Khalid @bilal_mo who has a family of 19 people to look after. Winter is here, it's getting colder by the day and they do not have enough cover for the night for all of them. They might share their blankets at night but sometimes a lot of them might be left bare.

"Trauma becomes problematic when it becomes your identity or your alibi."
"But in today’s popular culture, it is often framed as exactly that: both the wound that defines us, and the map promising our way back."
"Once cloaked in shame, trauma has shifted from stigmatizing to romanticizing. It is the modern hero’s journey, facilitated by a booming marketplace and algorithms that reward the recitation of our misery."
Eh lo so, gatto, che fuori sta piovendo e tu non puoi andare a farti il giretto in balcone, ma anche se mi guardi e miagoli, non posso farci niente. È dicembre, c'è freddo e piove, è normale.

Jetzt ist hier grad zweimal ein Piepmatz ans Fenster geflogen, fand wohl dank Fliegengitter Halt und hat wie ein Specht mehrfach mit dem Schnabel gegen den Plastikrahmen gehämmert? 🤔
