  No matter how long I take to return, this place, pjuu, always has this homely, family-type feeling. It is like a sanctuary or something.
  
  Thanks @Joe, and @sarah, and everyone else who make this place possible and lively. I don't thank you guys enough. And really should visit more often.

  Hello #Pjuu.
  I have been under lockdown since weeks, thankfully, with my family.
  How are you guys holding up?

  I wonder why would they ban website dedicated to alternative take on macro-economic happenings?

  Diaspora HQ has posted that under proposed law in EU, owners of alternative social networks will be liable for pirated content posted on their servers *as soon as it is posted*.
  .
  Either EU is going to dogs, or diaspora is going down the drain.

  #Reddit cutts off some of its best communities, thanks to a new policy. Things move towards political correctness rather than achieving anything concrete.

  Raleigh police used search warrants to demand #Google accounts not of specific suspects, but from any mobile devices that veered too close to the scene of a crime, according to a WRAL News review of court records... The demands Raleigh police issued for Google data [in two homicide cases] described a 17-acre area that included both homes and businesses... #Android #privacy #survilliance #crime

  Dear #Pjuu,
  How do you bookmark your online stuff? What is the particular advantage?
  
  I usually like/favourite/upvote/save things that I discover on social media. And that is mostly it. Obviously not a good method. And I am looking for a change. I use multiple devices, maintain multiple identities online, and well I think those are my principal complications.

  Reading a bit about investing.
  Turns out that Bitcoin cannot be called investment by a long shot.
  Buying it is speculation, and should be identified as such.

  #Gawker media, the primary target of #GamerGate, is going through bankrupcy proceedings. There is a suprize (but natural) bidder for their remaining assets: #PeterTheil.
  
  I wonder is there is any discussion on Facebook, or even on Twitter.

  Winter has come, and with it comes shopping for woolens. Imagine my surprise when I checked fabric content of sweaters from best brands: many were 100% cotton, or a blend with 0% wool. Labels on so called 'woolmark' sweaters proudly declared 50% wool. The best sweater I could find for myself was a thin one, with just 80% wool and was worth around 40$ in Indian currency.
  
  Where is all the good wool going?

  My #Twitter account has been 'restricted'. They are asking me to delete a tweet where the words 'dumb cunt' have been used. I am told that it either promotes violence, or threatens, or harasses someone.
  
  I am confident that the former two are completely out of question, and it is a really long stretch to construe one tweet, with one cuss word, as harassment.
  
  Though I have lodged a protest, I don't think they'll see things from my point of view.

  This is what they want to teach white children aged 5 to 10.
  Is it only me who suspects that the agenda here is to increase the number of dysfunctional families?

  Why not simply integrate #xmpp with #Pjuu for the direct messaging feature?
  Since it would be pretty tough for anyone to provide something better than what xmpp already has... especially when the Pjuu team is already hard pressed for time.
  
  Just my less than two cents.

  Meanwhile in India, #CafeCoffeeDay has become #CafeCockroachDay as some customers videotaped cockroaches in a #CCD outlet.
  
  CCD staff promptly responded by slapping the person making the video and management responded promptly by slapping sexual harassment case against him. CCD lawyers, after that...
