Layoffs are not just “how the industry is going” They happen because pieces of shit who care only about themselves are put in positions of power Pieces of shit who have ruined this industry Never forget what these people have done. This industry is devastated, and their bank accounts are bulging

Incredibly funny that the president of the United States can do this and retain command of the American Armed Forces, but I said it about a literal Nazi and got fired from a job writing superhero comics.

Actual sign outside my job's HR office.

hmm, it seems every time some picrew avi starts a thread like "stories with CONFLICT are TOXIC" it turns out they're hawking some garbage self-published YA. i wonder what the connection is

He really did descend from the heavens to defeat Chuck Norris

Good morning! It is now March 22nd in Japan, which means it is Spheal Day ( #タマザラシの日 )!

“It’s inevitable” “you can’t roll it back” “you just have to accept it”

Again, several ongoing corruption scandals happening all at once that make Watergate look positively tame.

Holy shit - this would be very, very bad: "The databases, called “Numident” and the “Master Death File,” include records for more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names."

happy day btw

happy international women’s day but especially to all of the Black, Indigenous, and women of colour; to 2-Spirit women, to intersex women, to trans women. you deserve the most

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

meowdy yall, long time no see!! long story short im finally getting back into art again--working on a new monhun sona as we speak, their name is mercutio we love them theyre orange (and tan, and varying shades of brown)

being at the age where everyone you know is having children

Gemini "summarizing" the contents of g drive folders is only really useful if you assume users are constantly opening gdrive folders without having any idea what MIGHT be in them, something that is I think generally untrue, and in the cases where it IS true it's a cybersecurity nightmare!!

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

Hi! Anti-vaxxers are trying (and succeeding) to kill children!

i was gonna joke that public hanging is far from our only option and start suggesting cruel and unusual punishments (e.g. banishment to the Elephant's Foot) but then i remembered that chairman mao made the last emperor of china a gardener for a reason

Republicans are going to end up building a statue of Jeffrey Epstein to put next to Columbus.

If ICE thought this was constitutional, it would have made horrifying social media content about it.

Two unconventional signs of severe incoming weather: 1. A waffle house being closed 2. Ted Cruz hopping on a plane to take a vacation

Reading this was infuriating, and the award seizure is only partly why. Worth reading though. A bitter example of how badly the game industry fails those who do the actual work.

“WHY ARE YOU SO PURITANICAL YOU’RE 22” is gonna be an all timer

May we all move through the world with kindness and gratitude and compassion and in such a way that millions of people will not stay glued to their phones eager to celebrate our death.

Goddammit. Fuck trans folk, too, ig. Time to call & bitch if you got the spoons, & even if you don't. iirc, this isn't the first time I've heard of the SAVE Act or at least something like it. 🫠 Oh. Here's a fact sheet (below) & THIS one includes how to call your reps: www.lcv.org/blog/the-sav...

damn ok, u do have to hand it to em sometimes hell yeah

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

This is why calling them weird creeps was so effective, not just to damage the leadership psychologically, but to make it extremely socially embarrassing to be a known supporter of them in the general public. The point is to make society at large view them as they are, not the force they wish to be.

sonic had a rough transition

theyre calling gary larson "moo-ah'dib"

we have to find the guy who did this

Spread it around that ICE is once again conducting kidnapping operations in the Central Florida area, and they’re doing so with the active (and in some areas, complete) support of law enforcement. Many areas are currently seeing a massive spike in officer presence.

Politico: "We've got the world's most credulous reporter here to tell you that a university sponsored by billionaires whose anti-trans faculty are at the cutting edge of 18th-century race science wasn't a hard-right project." Jesus Christ.

They must be SO mad watching Renee Good become the murdered folk hero they wanted Charlie Kirk to be

he did it he made his brand worse. we didn't think it was possible but he did it.

Hey uh Anyone remember during the George Floyd rebellion when folks realized that Juggalo makeup confused facial recognition software and then within like one business day Snapchat released a new Juggalo filter? You know, so you'd sit staring directly into the camera to let it map your whole face?
