I wrote a little about some of the little details you might have missed in this video and why it hit me so hard as a trans person this morning: www.burnsnotice.com/you-have-to-...

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

god fucking dammit why can I tell a film is about gender conversion therapy fifteen seconds and two shots into a 23 minute short

eiffel tower, stewart beach mini golf seawall, galveston, texas, 1986

a snake pooped on me today. cool cool cool.

hey buddies

it's a little disconcerting to be doomscrolling Instagram and unexpectedly see one of my metamours from years ago he's still hot too

I made a screen door (sunroof?) for the snake tub because it's consistently 100% humidity and that is no good

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it? Chiitan forever

sometimes I forget my girlfriend and I grew up in different cultures and then she breaks out inscrutable jokes like "sorry I didn't bring you a snake with this apple"

!!! did yall know @frecksandframes.fans sells a bunch of awesome hand-printed patches for your battle vests? LOOK AT THIS HOT SHIT gonna buy a bunch for my moto girlie crew sstitchwitchh.bigcartel.com/category/pat...

go go gadget delete the age verification legislations besides, they were all bad faith and badly designed

The Discord age-verification hack is much worse than was originally reported. 70,000 users were affected, with images of IDs, selfies, user names, IP addresses and, in some cases, financial details. Hackers are posting screenshots from over 1.5 terabytes of stolen data.

I love that my neighbor just popped open the kitchen window to say hi across the gap but it's also funny that she gives no shits I wander naked around in the kitchen she's just an old punk, who knows how many titties she's seen

Your choices are AI or women. Choose wisely.

she's literally sitting on top of her dinner not eating it

Have you heard a llama alarm call? I'm not surprised you didn't attempt to alliterate that hahaha it's like GHREERGHREERGHREEE

I generally consider myself opposed to the Christian God, but if Dolly Parton needs me to pray to the Christian God, I'll pray to the Christian God

This is horrendously disturbing. I am disturbed. Honestly, Priscilla, you need to back up and look at your life and think to yourself, "Self, is this really the person I want to be?" Posting Frankensteinian erotica and shit?

have been desperately looking for this old erotic Spanish comic I stumbled on almost 10 years ago called "El secreto de Frankenstein" and I'm so happy to report I finally found it

i think my favourite part about being a trans woman is how much of an impact we have on culture. a friend reminded me today about a popular meme format she created. another friend today casually told me about how she was the most notorious roblox hacker when she was a child. just a day in the life!

another android OS update for "critical security fixes" another unexpected set of UI changes I don't mind and they actually seem improved accessibility butttt I dunno it's unexpected

maybe I should make a new Instagram account for just motorcycle stuff and name it after my Jane Doe name from when I went to the hospital for my first real motorcycle accident

it's really cute how my dentist follows up on all these little personal details in my life like "how are your snakes? ribs healing up good?" and really impressive how my dental hygienist writes the highlights of our small talk into notes on my patient record

bluesky does enough shit that sucks without making up fake things that suck

also a more general point about this: I'm starting to lose respect for tech people who have to run around being condescending about people who don't understand the various nuances of machine learning. It frustrates me, too! But I also recognize where the blame for this mass societal confusion lies

Can we get the word around for more donations to go to BlackSky so there’s funding for the infrastructure that can bring Link back? From my understanding: Relays are costly and expensive. Anyone feel free to chime in. Bluesky relays is what has him banned. opencollective.com/blacksky

People once again need to internalize that "generative AI" is a small subset of machine learning, that machine learning is a critical tool that you cannot run a site without past a certain volume Bluesky has long since exceeded, and that it is FAR more reliable than user reporting.

today is Snoopy's 75th anniversary 🥲

I am betittied too

I am benoodled

South Bay folks, close your windows and mask up. If you're driving, set air to recycle. The Chevron refinery in El Segundo just blew up. citizen.com/-OacL7_yVyF5...

whispering ssssweet nothingssss

What the... this random TV original post-apocalyptic anime is set in a future where polycules are normalized AND so is being queer? Show's Towa no Yuugure.

Holy SHIT they've identified an actual biomarker!!!

slightly ominous mailer from the Red Cross

I appreciate when a medical clinician asks "are you pregnant?" without any side commentary like "this is a silly question but" and takes my "nope" answer without having to explain I never had a uterus

Been working on this for the last few months, and it's really really important to me. We've got some really cool games and folks. Please come by and watch the stream and donate!

🐍snoops say hi ssssssay it back

tbh glad I never accepted the dogecoin tip that could have been a down payment on a house

Reminder to my fellow fortysomething-year-olds that, if you want to go into a Hot Topic to buy Lackadaisy shirt and support indie animation, you are allowed. No one can stop you

🐍snoops say hi ssssssay it back

I went to PT and grocery shopping this morning and was wiped out for like an hour, what even maybe I've been on my back for too long after this accident and I've lost my endurance maybe I should've had breakfast first or maybe I should've taken a damn tylenol before activities I knew would hurt
