You might be thinking, "CPSC, does a dry Christmas tree really burn that much faster than a well-watered tree?" Friend, let's find out together by watching this PSA.

It's been pointed out that this paragraph about the FDA issuing warnings to binder manus is now missing from The Seattle Times article from which I took this screenshot this morning; the FDA website DOES have its warning letter to TomboyX publicly viewable, however. www.fda.gov/inspections-...

In addition to this administration trying to kill kids, and they're also coming for our binders? OUR BINDERS.

NEW: They kept saying they were gonna do it and now they've done it A group of clowns (Senators) have introduced a bill to FULLY REPEAL Section 230. No reform, no replacement, just utter destruction of all online free speech. We can't let this happen. Share & take action www.badinternetbills.com

The public: "We are desperate for help with the cost of living. Please do something." Trump administration: "Penis."

Cis people really have no idea how it feels to watch a regime hold a press conference to admit, on camera, the pogrom against trans people they've been waging for 11 months is not only real, but they're going to double down on genocide and try to wipe out all the children first.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.

Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google. My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence! go.bsky.app/8cn1XfT

1/ At bargaining yesterday, @propublica.org management said that they should have 100% discretion to replace workers with AI and would not commit to labeling future AI-generated content.

I hate how much I enjoyed this BIG NERD DESIGN ENERGY 🫦

my favorite reaction to this was "what if i need to flee an emergency"

A new generation of young lesbians need their Xena.

I usually post widefield colour "postcard" views of Mars, but today, just for a change, here's a rather more abstract view for you all... Perseverance's tracks meandering across the Martian landscape... Hope you like it! Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/ASU/S Atkinson

as a certified dyke it's unfathomable to me that I apparently knew what felching was long before thee michael hobbes did

"tiktok"???? this is, yet again, blatant sense8 erasure

You don’t write like AI—AI writes like you. Defend the em dash.

initially I rtd a post ragging on millennials for just searching for generic fetishes but wtf are those years? that's a gen z problem bro

Whole of the American economy is now piracy.

gave blood again today. was gonna show off a selfie with my blood bag, but wanting to do so entailed sitting up rather than lying flat, which meant I had a vasovagal reaction again, which meant the bag was gone by the time I recovered 😞 give blood, y'all!

Amazing 3-D effect in this JWST image of the tip of HH 49/50. The dusty tip of this nearby "cosmic tornado" is so thin that it allows a more distant spiral galaxy to shine through (science.nasa.gov/asset/webb/h...) More info in this Sci-Am story: www.scientificamerican.com/article/cosm...

I used to work in paint color matching, and although the variability in phone screen displays mean I can't be sure, I'm guessing there's probably like one drop of brown and two drops of black per five gallon bucket in this. Which is even more absurdly on the nose 💀

One of my Internet lukewarm hot takes is that having a strong negative reaction to Pluto's classification is incompatible with with being pro science and all the left/right/crunchy that goes with that

I don’t see my friend “a scary amount of butter” as much as I’d like to but when I do it’s like no time has passed, we pick up right where we left off

grease floats. when it flows in sewage and into our plants, it thickens as temps fall, separating in our settling tanks. the churning water forms grease globs that build like snowballs, and operators remove them so they don’t clog the process. listen. don’t pour grease down your drains.
