*Summoning Salt music* Everyone thought the Lowtax any% run was a solved category. There was no real time to be saved. All the skips had been found. At least that's what everyone thought... Until on October 1st, 2025 the CEO of Bluesky started this run...

Sometimes it’s hard to tell if the bad guys know they’re losing, so it’s important to read it when they say it out loud.

for this she's currently imprisoned and tortured in the planet's state-sized genocide laboratory and barracks. the genocidal barracks-state occupying palestine sees her politics as the linkage to the palestinian struggle's long time kernel of internationalization, & thus the west has abandoned her

greta thunberg invokes the planetary politics necessary at this time - both staunchly internationalist+anticolonial and environmentalist, with these two knit into one, and unafraid at the prospect of rapid movement - at a moment where narrow conservative nationalisms are the dominant trend

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI: At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

twitter is owned by the largest individual donor of the 2024 cycle who gave about $300 million to Republican candidates, and people's families ARE being rounded up. none of his objections to these things he's imagining are on principle. they just believe they should be the ones doing it.

The actual post is still available in the repo. Normally, when a post is deleted, it's removed outright with no way to get it back. pdsls.dev/at://did:plc... It doesn't appear in the timeline feed or the post thread API. They may be actively blocking it in the most stupid way possible, lol.

It's not a binary state, and with that said: There are people who never feel like an adult, and there are people who have always felt like they had to be the adult. Neither is better than the other, nor is one always a more successful adult than the other, but you can often tell who is whom.

Bluesky deleted my post complaining about the CEO lol. I did not delete it myself! Full on Lowtaxing from Jay here.

So close to getting it

The over-criminalization of American life means I have an increasing number of relatively well-off, middle-class people as clients. I've lost count of the number of times I've heard "Why are they (prosecutors) being so awful? I'm not a criminal." People think it'll never come for them.

i keep seeing ppl be like communication online used 2 be so civil and no it didn't what are you talking about it wasn't civil on bbses it wasn't civil on usenet on forums in irc it wasn't civil anywhere if you saw civility and didn't see cruelty you were sheltered BY SOMETHING that's for sure

Bluesky mods marking every person who so much as softly criticizing them as Rude is sending me.

One of my cats is now loudly crying because I won't let her go outside to eat grass and meow at the stray cats

The answer to this, btw, is to not use an appview RUN by someone you do not trust. Note I did not say that you have to use an appview *written* by someone you trust, unless there is outright malicious code which would be found quickly, the risk is ops logs or runtime filtering, not design compromise

how about you care about actual fucking people on this planet before you start wondering if your toaster has a soul. Once everyone materially demonstrates they care for all people on this planet and we deal WITH ALL THAT and all the animals too then we can talk about your nonsense.

I guess I gotta make my own portraits of my own blorbos because I basically have zero spending money until I get a new car.

seeing bsky staff insist the original sin of fascism rests in calling computers bad names while the CEO is becoming an open accelerationist is extremely funny

It's really creepy how fast they all are doing the...well, it's a fascist ritual isn't it. They saw the leaders signifier and are amplifying it, making sure their allegiance is known.

Don't forget that Fossil Fuel CEOs are one of the biggest funding behind anti trans propaganda . Yes really.

I don't know where this revisionism has come from about the suffragettes - people saying "if the suffragettes were around today, they'd be considered terrorists." The suffragettes were arrested and tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten by the state. They *were* considered terrorists!

I forgot to soak some beans for dinner so I guess I'll just wait until next weekend to have beans and cornbread

because ... sex is the gendering of the body. always has been

tbh the stark reality is that for nonbinary gender existence to gain much stronger mass traction among the public, it's basically imperative that people also 'allow the body to be nonbinary' i.e. question sexing of the body itself. there's basically no way binary sex & nonbinary gender can coexist

The main reason I'm online too much is I want to know shit. Small towns are not information rich environments. You should see how much of a sad joke the town library is.

I can't get back to sleep weh

well, everyone wanted the vibe of the 'net of the late 2000s / early 2010s back, and ...

Disabled, poor transgender people who are trapped in this country waiting for their turn at getting grabbed up have no obligation to shut the fuck up about what abled, privileged people should be doing. Fuck you, get out there and do it. Use your advantages over those of us who have none, for good

twitter is currently a frankenstein combination of 4chan and tumblr. we all know this. but bluesky is a different beast that i don't think people born after ~2004 fully grasp. bluesky is a frankenstein combination of tumblr and somethingawful

Glasgow Gender Clinic now has a waiting time of 224 years. The average across the UK is now 25 years. This segregated system isn’t working and is wasting millions. The NHS has been told time and again - informed consent now.

Cisoids who think the Palestinians in Gaza Have It Coming will call a transsexual It and get mad if you don’t call their dog Her

i think i would prefer it if bluesky leadership was honest with how much they loathe having a large social media app that they never wanted, spun it off into separate company, and then went back off to Protocol Land where they never have to think about the opinions of plebeians ever again.

the death knight #eldenring

Being transgender in the United States is life-threatening. People say, “Just leave.” If only it were that simple—I don’t have the money, and my family can’t follow. So I stay, facing danger every day, because the system has caged me here.

and scene

if lowtax's ex-wife is saying you remind her of fucking lowtax maybe you should stop posting

the appeal of fascism has always been restoring a mythical glorious past, it’s just that now that it’s gripping America at this moment they can’t think of anything more glorious or mythical than malls and Furbys

this post is evergreen

wow i wonder why Republicans like Fetterman, the Democrat who’s the most outwardly bloodthirsty and deranged when it comes to his need to slaughter Palestinian children, and who is always complimenting Republicans ????

who the hell would want this

Despite initial movement on the matter in early September, Vintage Story is still owed payment from itchio. As before, Anego Studios’ head sought out direct correspondence in itchio’s Discord server to expedite the overdue payout. See reply for original correspondence

If you’re gonna flee the US then that’s totally your prerogative (and your money and resources), but I’m so fucking over people encouraging it in others like it’s a solution for 99% of people who are most harmed by rising fascism

“You can’t just deny physical reality and expect everyone else to play along” - Evangelical Christian transphobes who have denied physical reality and expect everyone else ro play along.

Read bad art. Write bad art. Critique bad art.

If you asked me yesterday what one word the ceo of blue sky would use to once and for all plainly and unequivocally announce her hatred of trans people i would not have guessed correctly
