I got fired from the dairy. They said I didn't work well with udders.

This program may contain strong language, like "muscles", "barbell", and "swole". Viewer discretion is advised.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

#SaveSpeech with Black Friday being this Friday the 28th, this is the time to maximize the impact we can have via call campaigns If you plan to participate in this call campaign, imo you should heavily prioritize calling Visa/MC as heavily as possible between the 27th and the 1st of dec

#SaveSpeech if you're Canadian, you may have heard about a handful of bills that have free speech and anti-surveillance orgs worried, so ive made a cheat sheet of info about what makes each one worrying! We need to block these bills! please contact your reps! oncanadaproject.ca/findyourrep

"I asked ChatGPT..." Look, if I wanted garbage from the garbage dispenser, I can press the "dispense garbage" button myself. (Actually, I like when people say this, because it means I can immediately disregard everything that follows it.)

I've been seeing a lot more glasses in furry art lately and I am *absolutely* here for it~ 💙

Reminder to not let corporations devour our community, please. They will take our culture and sell it back to us as slop, infiltrate our spaces and sanitise them. It’s already happening. Tell them to fuck off by not giving them money, while we have the chance! What we have is so important!

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures. This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech! www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

If you've been easing up on pressuring these freaks or haven't cared yet because you're not a visual novel dev getting erased from itch, Please observe how ridiculous "fantasy (cat ears, fairies, ETC)" is like putting "etc" after fantasy is WILD

CANADA, UK, AUSTRALIA!! y'all all have official petitions targetting paypros censorship! IF YOU LIVE IN THESE COUNTRIES, SHARE THESE AROUND AND SIGN THEM ASAP. And verify by email! CAN www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... UK petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... AUS www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

Australians, spread this petition far and wide. Demands Parliament “open anti-trust investigations and penalize the unregulated monopoly of a key part of everyday infrastructure,” as “payment processors are not there to regulate what legal content people consume.” www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... #nsfw #censorship #canpoli @acvalens.net

OH MY GOD WE ARE WINNING YALL KEEP CALLING DO NOT STOP DO NOT STOP CALLING LOOK AT WHAT WE ARE DOING!!!

A change.org petition won't do much, but email/call/visit your reps and people responsible and make it heard that you still don't want this. (This will be the third time they've tried, time to make it the third time they fail.)

So when you guys do you daily calls today you should ask mastercard what illegal adult content they found on these content creation platforms. Tell them to make names. When they give you the runaround say "but what have you found that's illegal". They won't because there was never an investigation

It’s time for our own collective shout. Who are you calling? Remember: Stress you’re a repeat caller on this issue and that you heard about this controversy on the news. With Visa, ask for a supervisor once you hit a dead end. Calls should always last longer than 30 seconds yellat.money

The point of calling credit card companies isn't to make John Visa have moment of introspection and go "aw shucks I was wrong!" it's to grind business to a halt for such an extended period of time that all the higher ups who are real people with names and addresses decide that this isn't worth it

I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign But we can EASILY top 1,000! I prewrote an email + got the contact info - you just have to send! ↻💬♡ to boost We CAN make a difference 💕 #itch #censorship 1/🧵

i compiled a bunch of forms and petitions as well as phone numbers and e-mails from most payment processors you can use to contact them and file a complaint regarding their decisions to strong-arm steam and itchio. remember to be cordial when contacting people. stop-paypros.neocities.org

DON'T STOP CALLING. email them if you want, sure, but the fact that they are requesting people to *email them instead* (presumably because emails are much easier to ignore) means that the calls are WORKING, i.e. becoming a massive nuisance and interrupting workflow. once again, DON'T STOP CALLING.

Alternative Mastercard numbers are as follows: Mastercard (Aus): 1800-120-113 Mastercard (US): 1-800-307-7309 Mastercard (UK): 0800-96-4767

So, uh, this happened.... in case your feet got cold from Hell freezing over. (No, I'm not switching, just expanding my horizons/knowledge.)

Here's the deal: GenAI cannot be ethical, because it wasn't created to be ethical. It was created to avoid having to pay people. It was created to steal jobs. It was not created to make lives easier for those doing the work, it was created to make things cheaper for those wanting what was made.

If a travelogue is a video of one's travels, is an analogue a video of one's anus?

Okay, yeah, you know what? Fuck this "human" shit. I'm no human; I'm otherkin, and I am a kitsune! ∆θ (My fursona and pronouns won't change, though!)

I think I might be otherkin.... >o>

So just as a PSA I DO NOT have any public channels, or any channel at all really on Telegram. I do not conduct any business on Telegram. If you are approached by someone claiming to be me with no prior interaction on another platform, it's not me.

The person using my art as their pfp changed it and were very nice about it, so please don't give them any trouble, thanks!

Got myself a fancy new controller: a Beitong Kunpeng 50. Has a screen for configuring everything right on the controller itself (no proprietary software!), clicky face buttons, adjustable trigger travel, and it looks and feels really nice! Will have to take some time to put it through its paces.

Stop Using Blocklists Please, Exhibit #171635181

Got myself a very special toy: A 2024 Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2 It's got a Hisilicon Kirin T91 (fabbed by SMIC) which uses Taishan large cores out of a server chip which leaves the two-way SMT intact, so the chip is 8C12T. Some very cool stuff~

I see people pushing mass block lists and I'd highly recommend against using them. Do not let other people decide these things for you sight unseen. These kinds of lists get abused regularly, accidentally and on purpose

With this is mind, remember: If you see transphobic, racist, Alt-Right posts. Do not interact, do not share (even to say you’re against those comments) Do not draw attention to them or give them the attention they crave. Block the account, report them where appropriate. Do NOT make this Twitter!

Hi The new NSFW button is called LABELS. It shows up when you put an image in a post. Labeling your NSFW images makes them work with Bsky's built-in moderation system. You won't lose visibility because people who want to see NSFW have it turned on. It's just considerate, that's all. Cheers!

Ahoy! The scammers are here! I woke up to this old chestnut, and since Bluesky is pretty new, I thought it might be helpful to show y'all how this one works. A scammer will reach out for work, and it'll be really vague - a piece of his kid, or suddenly four, it doesn't matter, he doesn't care.
