I have to be honest. this isn't meant to downplay the seriousness of what's happening now, and this isn't meant to be glib. But this is also how ALL cops act. The first time I got screamed at like this by a cop, I was 16, because of a traffic jam in the school parking lot. Every single one of them

it is impossible for mayors or cops to learn positive lessons about protest response because they all have two immovable beliefs: 1. it is evil and childish to hold police officers accountable for violent acts 2. cops must be present at all times during protests

the future of lesbianism has a forked path. either it eschews all possibility of negotiating desire, thus self-abolishing itself as a sexual subculture and handing the century purely to being one singular path of gay guy culture, or it embraces being the avant-garde workshop of sexual futurity

Her despair grew so great that it burst her breast open and like a bird of fire shattered the stone and broke out into the light of day--the light of day, faint in her windowless room.

Hey! If you use Discord, fill this out and tell them gamers DON'T WANT AI IN OUR APPS EITHER!

crypto accounts are turning against rightwing narratives it’s over lol

there is such a dumb blankness, full of meaning, in a wide landscape of snows

Time for more Menu Cube posting 😌

the sooner they all realize this the better.

Timeline Cleanse: Please enjoy this photo of a praying mantis that was sitting on top of my car windshield, but the angling and lighting were so weird it looks like a giant praying mantis wandering a corn field in Iowa.

the good ol' chart,

Just learned that David Harbour named the apartment where he has sex "The Dojo" and tbh even if I was really into someone, the instant they call their home "The Dojo" I'm out. That said it they take me back to an actual dojo for sex? I'm in.

this list is really funny to me because you can pinpoint exactly when his anime seasonal watcher era was (he was a ~mid 2010er). kabaneri of the iron fortess and akame ga kill 😭😭😭

I would never accuse the Iraqi Army of being well trained or using a lot of restraint. And yet in Mosul I came to expect more discretion from the average Iraqi soldier than U.S. cops who have never taken incoming fire.

One of my favorite jokes in the episode is the fact that they just let Ralph raise some boards instead of a calf. The background jokes in this show are so good.

I come with empty hands and the desire to unbuild walls.

Great piece by my Cato colleague. “Since July, immigration agents have shot at least six people behind the wheel of a vehicle. The same playbook is used each time: the agent says they “feared for their life” as a vehicle was “weaponized” against them. Juries should decide, but we tie their hands.

yeah it's a big cop culture thing to act like you are under extreme threat at all times. and there is a lot of institutionalized panic about what people might do with their cars in particular.

yeah they’re just grabbing random people at bus stops there is absolutely no attempt to even give the pretense that this is about immigration anymore. it is absolutely just a military occupation

NOOOOO! The Polyhedron! That's where I work!

Please fill this out!! They've made it very easy to tell them "I actively do not want AI and will consider stopping using Discord if you put it in," and the mere fact they allow you to be that explicit is a very good sign!

Found out today they anime adapted this extremely sapphic yuri nonsene manga I've been reading. I snagged a clip of it Does It Count If You Lose Your Virginity to an Android? is the overly long winded title

Hypnotic propaganda poster. You see these all across the labs as "decoration." They tend to be more instructional than most decorations you're familiar with. You don't tend to think much on them. Or anything else.

Early humans thought this was the height of cool over 2million years ago

“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

Hi, I'm a freelance Democratic party strategist in your mentions. After we protect trans rights by banning them from sports, we should move on to protecting abortion rights by restricting bodily autonomy. Next, we'll reign in ICE by getting tough on the border.

I am donating to this and I would very much like it if others who can donate would do the same. It's not OK that only $6500 has been collected so far. Thank you. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

I did flipbooks for all of the Animorphs covers I did, but they appeared in black and white and very small, so I am posting them here so you can see them large and in color. No AI here--just Elastic Reality and painting. You can buy a signed print of this cover here: www.etsy.com/listing/798775628

Attention Bluesky elders: The artist behind the ANIMORPHS covers is here!

I love when my cat gets crazy zoomies. He be doing backflips, side wall jump, run laps and crazy fast maneuvers. Like what is lil guy training for

i posted this a day before it was revealed that the ice agent shot her while directly calling her a "fucking bitch". reality is too on the nose and literal it is getting painful.

the good things about the thing you like are sometimes actually because of the things you think aren't good, and understanding why those things are good actually is a way to learn to be a better human. assuming because you don't get it that it's bad is how you calcify and become small white noise

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

O dainty duck! O dear!

In order to combat labor unions they are switching to a totally computerized system that cuts down their labor force. And then there's the plot of the movie.

You don’t need a character to be in the public domain. To get around legal issues, you can cleverly change the look of them instead. Like here, we had @gailsimone.bsky.social drooling a lot less than usual.

"Apple argued that an indie storefront that users could install via Epic was a problem because it hosted porny games, calling games on Itch.io 'offensive and sexualized.'"
