Progressives aren’t so progressive now that I made up a thing they’re all saying

Thunderstorms can generate weak electrical discharges on the plants underneath, but until now, they had never been observed in nature

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich Announces The Illegal Occupation of "Judea", A Huge Part Of The West Bank And yes, this picture from today is real.

One of my least favorite things around AI in video games is when these LLM idiots try to say that "AI has been in video games for decades," as if the routines that tell ghosts to chase Pac-Man are exactly the same as the chat bot claiming there are nine Rs in strawberry.

I think two things can be true at once. You can acknowledge that neurodivergence and mental illness deserves grace, while also acknowledging that you are not obligated to accept hurtful treatment. As a neurodivergent and mentally ill person, I understand that I don’t get a free pass to hurt people.

A new Resident Leon game and a new Gorillaz album on the same day?

So proud I get to help @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social create this incredibly important historical game, despite the powers that be in the games industry insisting that Palestinians can not be allowed to tell their story.

I love that US media simply can't stop blaming Palestinians for bad things. Israel committing genocide and Harris not committing to stopping Israel's genocide cost Harris votes. Gaza suffered genocide. Palestinians being torched alive didn't cost Harris votes. Harris cost Harris votes.

Israeli teens burn their draft papers, refusing to join a military that's committing a genocide.

I don't think the British should get away with "uh he's no longer Prince Andrew actually" stuff. Listen, you decided to make one weird rich family central to your politics and culture, you have to own that. You don't get to pretend he wasn't part of it when he does weird rich family crimes

Today is my birthday! For my present you should all read my webcomic, Thistil Mistil Kistil. There are over 500 PAGES available to read FOR FREE. Ideal for lovers of history, Norse mythology, and grumpy boys realizing toxic masculinity is bad, actually. 1/3 HERE: www.tmkcomic.com #comic #webcomics

Prime example of why there is no safe level of exposure to X propaganda, no matter how immune you think you are. One day you're a highly intelligent, influential political leader. The next you're sharing content from an Infowars conspiracy theorist to your millions of followers. Get off that site.

Again, it feels insane how little attention is being paid to this. The build up to Iraq was months long, in the open, full public debate. This stuff is currently below Toy Story 5 on the BBC website.

Sounds rough! I avoid this ever happening to me with One Weird Trick

the lesson of the pandemic lockdowns should have been "the only people important to the functioning of society are the workers who actually do things" if every rich asshole on earth vanished in a puff of smoke tomorrow, nobody would notice or care

“Exposure to algorithmic content leads users to follow conservative political activist accounts, which they continue to follow even after switching off the algorithm.”

I checked in on Rednote today, and was shown a bunch of self-shipping fan art of users x anthropomorphized AI chatbots, mourning the last model being shut down. Some of them had heartbroken letters or poems talking about seeing them again in the afterlife and things like that. It's bad.

When ProZD Plays a Game

Once again, I am promising Democrats there are literally thousands of former department of justice people who will crawl over broken glass to prosecute this administration given the chance

"In 2024, approximately 1,420 attacks against Palestinians were documented" "This trend continued in 2025: The record set in 2024 was surpassed, with more than 1,770 attacks recorded"

Sometimes you just have to give it up for a great headline

well at least the next Dem admin will finally be able to get past the ridiculous "the FBI must be run by a Republican" thing and clean house because we're going to get Special Agent Big Balls at this rate

The older I get The more I understand The only important war is class war

I truly feel sorry for every American smart enough to realize that this makes the United States look like the dumbest nation on the planet.

I've said for a very long time that #Israel started the war with #Gaza because it wants those southern oceanfront beaches. Now it seems they will at least need to share them with Trump and his buddies. #TrumpCorruption

Yesterday, settlers opened fire at Palestinians in the town of Mikhmas, north of Jerusalem, and killed 19-year-old American-Palestinian Nasrallah Abu Siyam and injured four others.

That’s how you do it in democratic countries by the way

This captures my fear about these drugs - that people will see their existence as license to be even crueler to fat people and to further police what an acceptable body looks like. I already see it in people I know- they use the drugs to confirm their judgments rather than question their assumptions

This whole fight over transgender stuff happening on X is so weird to me. The most notable thing about trans issues in the last 5 years has been the enormous, coordinated anti-trans activism campaign across the right, aided by moral cowards in the center. But that campaign is *never mentioned*.

Pardoning drug lords but deporting sick little kids straight from the hospital really sums the whole thing up doesn’t it

clown behavior

Wreck it Ralph 2. Saw it at an animation con pre-release, and when the crowd around me clapped and whooed, I just scowled. What a spit in the face of the original. (TBF I don't see movies in theaters much)

It really works! A year ago, I still had lots of FB friends posting AI "art". I was nicely talking to them about it at first, but nothing changed until I got mean about it. Zero AI in my feed now, and half those people have joined in being staunchly anti-AI. We gotta be mean!

🚨BREAKING: The High Court has ruled that Labour's proscription of Palestine Action was ILLEGAL and must be quashed. The ban, used to justify detention and torture of protesters, has been ruled illegal. Proscription remains in place pending an appeal by Labour. (Source: @FT)

Look I know this was only my reaction because I’m very ignorant. But the confused happiness turned dread I felt reading this is difficult to describe

As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.

I desperately want the AI bubble to burst already for so many reasons and among them is that I’m tired of feeling exasperated over people I otherwise respect and think are generally pretty sharp getting suckered into thinking the hype might be real

"i promise right now, years away from an election, to vote for an awful shitbag bigot because he isn't the other guy" shut da fuck up. you are making things worse

People, look into your legal avenues and make sure to pressure everyone in government for actual privacy laws, kicked out any pro internet surveillance politician, organize, call discord and make them waste money in support. Do not let up. bsky.app/profile/theb...
