Today’s retreat is absolutely an attempt to take pressure off of Congress to rein in ICE so that a funding package can get through. That pressure has been effective. We can celebrate Minneapolis’ win but we need to keep the pressure on. They’re not going to stop forever.

Heads up to everyone on #Tiktok: With the sale of TikTok here in the US not even over a week old, the people running TimTok appear to be announcing that they'll be tracking whether you're LGBT, and specifically whether you're transgender or not. Don't give them an inch! Delete your tiktok

Adding this to the list here. Because this is a growing log at this point bsky.app/profile/cats...

Life is too short for some y'all to be thus fuckin' dumb.

How some y'all be

I don't know, call me crazy, but maybe instead of "falling out of love with liberalism," how about they're "falling out of love with its transphobic monstrous author?" Have you considered that?

i can only read this as an extremely funny brute force attempt by staff to prove to the normies that they can have conversations on here about things other than "share if you agree there's a CHEETO in the WHITE HOUSE"

Srsly what kinda drugs they got in Tokyo-3 that Misato can eat like that and still be shaped like that.

I swear, some of my friends make me want to end every message with 'its a shame that'll never happen because you couldn't carry a train of thought if you had a backpack and four hands'.

lore runs deep and snow just keeps falling

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

"That's not containment, that's just bondage!"

AI is dying. Repost to make it die faster.

Why is there an empty field on the top of my feed pushing me to post?

CRASHOUT FOR THE AGES

Apparently the AI bros are on another round of "Hatsune Miku is AI, checkmate luddites" so this is just a reminder that the singer behind Miku was paid and still earns royalties, and beyond that, Miku is nothing more than a MIDI soundboard with advanced pitch converter options, it is not genAI.

Insert character here

Seconded. How am I supposed to know what people like if its just likes all day long?

Hey you Yeah you, the lurker who scrolls and doesn't engage with the posts you enjoy Leave a comment once in a while. Even if it's small like "this is cool!" Or "love this!" It's the little interactions that help remind artists like me that real people are seeing my art and engaging with it

feeling better already

Create NSFW art Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like Always resist oppression

“I miss when GDQ was about speedrunning” How fragile do you have to be to miss the current Dark Souls WR record holder speedrunning the game in full armor because pronouns show up on screen

If you’re wondering why a lot of creative types on here have to be in constant self-promo mode, it’s because when we aren’t, sales start to fall and we have to fix that because we enjoy having food and such.

this is just how my mum pulls out of the space in tescos car park

Hi. For anyone seeing this, this is fake (or likely misiattributed). The survey in question didn't ask for authentication. On top of that, clicking a link can't steal your auth token because that would be a MAJOR CSRF exploit. Also, here's the survey site's SSL cert info.

@punkitt.bsky.social Rassa frassa gotta follow you to read this gay-ass (complimentary) comic recap rassa frassa...

I suggest a new term for when people are desperate for character art- Horngry. Its like being hangry but for when you're hornt.

Commish for Pharoah Sauron! Of Lilith showing off her new bod! This permanent berry body is quite... enticing... isn't it? She's got plenty to show off now- so throw on her best dress and go to the biggest event in town!

"What, you never seen a punk with glasses on?"

Ever have that moment where you wonder what someone would look like if they never lost a single pound in their adult life... Just me? Yeah, fair.

Man do I hate not having a strong drug problem some days.

"Root claims that the platform’s gender ratio “makes the Smurf village look like a feminist utopia”" Ouch.

ask Paypal, Stripe, Visa, & Mastercard why you can't buy your favorite games on @itch.io & Steam for "adult themes" but they still process payments for the website that creates AI images of CSAM

Gonna transfer this over from Twitter. After it’s moved over here, I’ll delete the post over on dead bird site

Hrmmmm what shall I do with myself this year? Probably need to hike prices a bit but its not like anyone comms me that often anyway x.x

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.
