Apple just released the ability to identify yourself as an adult in one of the most recent iOS 26 updates. you as a user should go opt in right now, and Bluesky should start using this feature as soon as possible. it would show US regulators we don’t need KOSA to protect kids online

No one here is talking about the DWP's new powers as a result of the expansion of the FEAR bill? Cool. Can more of the UK's left come back from brunch now? Labour isn't what you thought, so it's time to lawfully act. We need to get anyone with ties to Blair or Ellison out of positions of power.

Sorry if I'm a bit on the quiet side for today and over the next couple of days, seems like this period is going to be a very painful one. I'll be okay, so don't want anyone worrying over it, but it's stopping me from sleeping so I'm fragile and in a rotten mood lol.

Seeing in the new year with a period and a migraine combo; start as we mean to go on, I suppose! It was super fun though, all the same, so don't worry. Mum and I played Animal Crossing, celebrating the countdown on her island, while we had London's fireworks display on the telly in the background.

Happy New Year, everyone! 🥳🎉🎊

Another lap around the sun is drawing to a close, and I still have no one to kiss on new year's.

fav kissing art of 2025 <3 Happy new year and here's to more wholesome art in 2026 ! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡

So apparently my older sister has an Alexa device in every room of her house, and I'm baffled. Just...no care for privacy at all, in current year, is crazy to me.

Have no idea why I still have this picture, but I love it.

I don't like defending the CONservatives all too much, but it bothers me whenever Labour glazers harp on about how it was Tories that brought in the OSA. OSA prior to the sweeping changes Labour made to it early this year wasn't actually all that terrible. It did open the door to scope creep.

Really wish the Green Party weren't heavily anti-nuclear energy. They're the only ones on the left that stand any kind of chance of filling the void that Labour has created, by Statmer going full on authoritarian nightmare mode. But I think we need to brace ourselves for a Reform future.

it took the Tories 15 years of fucking everything up to obliterate their party. Keir Starmer did it in 18 months

Now that's an interesting quandary isn't it? The Guardian support the Online Safety Act (with age verification), they've posted articles supporting a social media ban, they have articles calling for a ban on porn, but they're pro-AI, and we're all supposed to act like none of these are connected.

Relatable thread.

send me the silliest pic(s) of your cat pls

Australia is finally doing age verification to access certain content through Bing and Google. Totally not authoritarian, nothing to see here, everyone.

@eternowllie.bsky.social Nothing beats Twitter's insane For You memes.

Mum got me a Ravensburger puzzle, thinking it'd be safe. It's AI slop. Of course it's AI slop. Ffs. Fuck Ravensburger forever. Does anyone know of companies or individual artists committed to producing non-AI jigsaw puzzles?

Welcome back artists!🖌🎨✨️ Quote Post with an old piece that you still like!

This comment someone left on Josh Strife Hayes' recent video cured my lonely, touch-starvedness.

Still miss having a cat so much, man. Parents don't wanna adopt another, and like I understand why. We have Wulfie. I love Wulfie, he's the bestest boy ever. I grew up with cats. My nan had Toots, then almost as soon as Toots passed, we adopted Kitty. It really feels like something is missing.

Damn, who is this DIVA?

Happy Holidays!!! 🦈🐟🎄 #art #sharks

MERRY CHAI-MAS 🤶🏽✨

Pretty lights.

My friend here is so sweet 💖

Decided to name this owl plush after @unclejimbo9.bsky.social. ☺️

Welp, guess mum has gotten me into Lego now too. Sorry about the angles, our living room is a mess and it's very difficult to get a good shot without the mess being in the background lol.

Damn it. It's those damn East German Terrorists again. BREAKING: Shots fired at Nakatomi Plaza in Los Angeles; possible hostage situation • Genesius Times genesiustimes.com/shots-fired-...

Don't forget, governments are funding AI with tax payer money now. Especially the UK's Labour government; they are all in on the technocracy and genAI CSEM creation. All while they're killing the free and open internet for the rest of us, to "protect" women and children. Laughable, really.

For those who don’t know. Glaze in the context of AI is a technique of making art art confusing to AI while making it virtually unchanged to the human eye. An Artist using Glaze on their work is effectively saying: “I in no way consent to my copyrighted works being used by AI in any way”

not only that but it also removes watermarks and it credits the user that generated it

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

The 24th, and the very last puzzle in the advent calendar. Merry Christmas everyone!

Happy Christmas Eve🎄 enjoy this commissioned art #art #pokemon

This is the kinda shit that starts happening when people in positions of power start believing that technology is powered by magical fairy dust. There is no excuse anymore. If you're in a position of power in society, it should be a requirement that you at least have a basic understanding of tech.

So in medicine there's a type of feeding tube called a PEG (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy) tube and today someone said "so when are they getting pegged" and the way the entire room whipped their head around and said "please do not word it like that" I'm fucking crying.
