There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Rich dudes: retvrn to the classics, before woke Ancient greeks: so, homer is cool (v. v. much appreciate the dude-on-dude stuff) but what if our first play about his most important work is fanfiction about a pair of bumbling goatmen and what if the actors had to wear fake boners?

Big surprise that Sharice Davids is once again being a disappointment. Not quite Tex "wind power is the future but I'm fracking anyway" Hall levels, but still up there.

Encouraging developers of these toilets to create technology that can track who uses bathrooms will further enable jurisdictions and businesses to know essential details about who is using those bathrooms and police who can use what bathroom Slippery slope.

For my newsletter, I wrote about the killing of Juniper Blessing and ruminated on who the media thinks deserves attention in death. Friday newsletters are usually paywalled, but I have made the mini-essay portion of this post free to all: www.burnsnotice.com/her-name-was...

This causes my brain to go into instant static, racists are so unserious and brainrotted "She can't be blaaaaack!! She has to be white and have a british accent!!" Her dad was a god and she was born from an egg, chill Besides, white and british isn't traditional! Euripides' Kyklops proves that

Part of the reason the Comanche, Kiowa and Apache lost our SW OK reservation was ranchers wanting to take what was then called "the big pasture," part of their process was slaughtering any buffalo or other wildlife to make it look desolated and ripe for white ranching

Back in the 80s we had seatbelt chairs in the closet I knew seatbelt chairs were still a thing, but gd isolation closets still being a thing really fucks me up

I attended the Oregon Contemporary Artists' Biennial and talked to TK Smith about why everything comes back to York:

Now look. I like a lot of the stuff a certain 🐷 brand has been making over the last year or so but it would be so fly, hot, sexy and beautiful if they were actually size inclusive.

Hey @councilorgreen.bsky.social, hey, this queer NW Portlander born in Texas thinks this neighborhood and Portland in general is a GREAT place for more trans and queer neighbors!

FUCK. #survivor50

These #Iceland volcano livestreams I watch are full of old brits who have pet names for all the volcanoes because they can't be bothered to memorize #Icelandic names "Krissy" for Krysuvik, "Karen" for Sundhnukur, and they can't even be bothered to even try to spell Reykjavik.

I feel like this is what's driving a resurgence of old school programming in languages like BASIC/QBASIC and similar The reorienting of "modern" programming languages toward AI integration is taking the fun and feeling of accomplishment (plus reliability) of ol' school hand coding

Virginia Foxx looks like Palpatine but lacks his charms

Even the earliest depictions of the stories of the Odyssey were not these proche-realiste just-so plays that people like Musk and Walsh dream up, they involved dudes wearing big fake cocks and horns talking about one-eyed giants

lol bsky moderation is flagging every critical quote skeet as antiblack harassment... is it because the video is super racist? I hope tf it is because it makes moderation super sus if it's because they think needling racists is itself racist

Leather weekends often had ball enlargement seminars back in the 90s, a lot of it in the context of harm reduction because at the time lots of trans women were dying of botched injections. I don't think GOP men are paying attention to the necessary harm reduction aspect of body mod...

In the case of digital research, writing a fruitful Boolean search uses far fewer words and far less time than trying to chat your way into a result And it's more intuitive than trying to finesse an LLM into an accurate outcome

Anyway, on to things that are positive: the chance of a large enough solar flare to scrape microsats from orbit en masse is growing for the short term. And by microsats being impacted by solar storms I mean I hope starlink falls from the sky

Historically speaking, injection of saline and silicone are not strictly a body mod thing or kink thing, either. Trans guys who get a metoidioplasty or phalloplasty have often been given testicle enlargement and expansion via saline or silicone

We're already in a soft power civil war

In Oregon, the Dems can remap Bentz's district to incorporate the I-84 corridor to downtown Portland and parts of North Portland and safely snatch his seat They can also blue wall Rep. Janelle Bynum's seat by slipping parts of the region up I-205 to the Columbia.

NEW: We used facial recognition to identify more than 400 people who appear in photos from the Epstein Files and mapped out their connections. 170 of them haven’t previously been reported on in connection with Epstein. Explore the data with our new website: epstein.photos

Modern AI is barely evolved from the version seen in 80s episodes of Computer Chronicles.

@tinakotek.bsky.social @repbonamici.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social y'all need to get ahead of the GOP or they'll deepen their polling Datacenters are NOT popular, don't make Oregonians shoulder them

What people don't understand about urinary incontinence is that it increases suicidal ideation and that women are 2x more likely to experience it
