Exactly. Antivaccers convince themselves they have great immune systems when they are actually just being protected by the rest of us.

I keep seeing authors getting duped by AI users pretending to be artists (and then sadly realising it when everyone calls their book AI slop). These grifters are everywhere and I don't have a solution, but I have a few pointers:

If ICE will not follow the law we should not consider it protected by the law.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

My town’s botanical garden hosted an orchid sweetheart weekend event. My dream house will have a setup like this. And I took home an onc. tsiku marguerite because her blooms are going to be so cute.

It's Judy Blume's birthday. She's 88 today. Back in 2013, she said, "It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship. As always, young readers will be the real losers."

With Valentine’s Day coming up… what’s your LEAST favorite romance in a sitcom?

The irony of the Seahawks (a football team with Native American Iconography) beating the “Patriots” in one of the gayest locations in the country (SF Bay Area) with performances by a Latin American Artist (Bad Bunny) and an anti-gov punk rock band (Green Day). It’s like the stars aligned on this one

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

State of Play set for February 12 featuring over an hour of updates Sony Interactive Entertainment will host a State of Play on February 12 at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET, the company announced. You will be able to watch it on YouTube, Twitch, and TikTok.

@thestorygraph.com ‘s description of The Master & Margarita irritates me. It doesn’t tell you what the book is about and is instead a review - but no indication of the reviewer. 💙📚

Wait, THIS is young Anton Chekhov? This? Good lord. Let that gun go off, daddy

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

Following the release of the Epstein files Jk Rowling has deleted a decade of port logs belonging to the Super yacht Samsara. What is she hiding?

The amount of authors I see on TikTok and other socials using clearly AI images in their videos makes me so mad I could just scream. Indies should be helping other indies not using AI Slop! #AuthorsAgainstAI #ArtistsAgainstAI #Booksky #WriteSky

There are people trying to stop others from using whistles, and next they'll say it's ableism. As your disability advocate friend, I will be the first with serious sensory sensitivity to say that I would rather be in pain than someone get abducted, or shot. Block/mute this argument, it's an op.

What a time to be a kid. I wish someone still gave me free pizza for reading so much #booksky

This is an excellent analogy, because my recollection from grade school is that the pen on the right looks fun and exciting, and then you play with it for a few minutes and realize it's not actually useful for anything and in fact makes some tasks more cumbersome, and never think about it again.

I went to ICE rapid response training today, organized by my wonderful city council member @hugoforcd13.bsky.social. I strongly recommend finding a group to join in your area. We keep us safe.

Dolly Parton's birthday is today, so this is your reminder that she wrote 'Jolene' and 'I Will Always Love You' on the same day. ON THE SAME DAY.

Religions are vehicles for power, swap in Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, or anything else, and the result will be the same. Predators don’t genuinely believe; they use faith to mobilize sycophants, control others, justify cruelty, extract money and influence, wielding God as a bludgeon.

Went with my 5 year old niece to see the SpongeBob movie and then found out she chose it over Zootopia 2. This is the youngest betrayal yet in my life.

YOU ABSOLUTELY DO NOT HAVE TO HAND IT TO A "DEMOCRATIC" CANDIDATE WHO GLEEFULLY DESTROYS UNHOUSED PEOPLE'S BELONGINGS ON CAMERA, THROWS TRANS PEOPLE UNDER THE BUS, AND GOES ON THE GODDAMNED DAILY WIRE TO AGREE WITH GODDAMNED BEN SHAPIRO THAT ICE ARE NOT TERRORISTS.
