My Mom recently left MAGA. Rest her soul.

Same with both my parents.

While I was helping with my father’s home hospice care he told me that he likes watching Newsmax because “it’s pretty much in the middle”. FFS. He was about 5% conspiracy kook already but really took the bait once he started listening to Rush Limbaugh. Then it was anti-Clinton bumperstickers everywhere, and stuffing crank political into every conversation he could. Went downhill from there.

People fight back against the leopards who ate their faces

1. you’re on a plane, minding your own business
2. a group of radicalized hijackers take over the plane and are determined to crash it
3. some hijackers get queasy about it and either stop participating in the highjack or even start to fight against it
4. [do what with them?]
5. once you land add all the hijackers to the no fly list, prosecute, etc

We are at step 4.

No matter what plugin you find that supposedly will do the job, in my experience it is always a PITA that ends up involving a lot of programming.

I had a good experience with jekyll’s wordpress->jekyll import tool. But see below.

I would go for a database-less static site generator like Hugo

Graybeard here, so it’s probably just braindamage specific to me, but I’ve found ruby dependency setup and troubleshooting to be extremely frustrating. Hard for me to wrap my head around.

When jekyll is actually dead (right now it is “only mostly dead”) I’ll change to something that does not require ruby (eleventy?) or just go back to the nineties and do something barebones with gtml or whatever. Already playing with the latter.

You’re going to get this treatment or and I’m going to hurt you!
