Straight people with mullets is cultural appropriation. I will not be taking any questions at this time.

I really, REALLY hate how people are trying to suggest that AI is like the replicators from Star Trek. 1) The most useful AI could ever be is if it starts having a higher than 60% success at creating spreadsheets. But, 2) Even if it actually worked, it still drains SO much resources.

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

These people aren't transphobes, they're simply Women's Rights Advocates. Don't actually ask them about non-white women, abortion, equal healthcare, equal pay, migrant women, sex worker rights, or disabled women. Trust them. They are Women's Rights Advocates.

I honestly didn't think EA was exceptionally evil - at least compared to other corporations. (Really? Worse than defence, prison, and healthcare corps?) But, OK. I can see where people are coming from now.

So, uh, I went to Auschwitz last week. One thing that surprised me was how inefficient it was. The majority of the system didn't work and was operating under-resourced/over-capacity. Nazis don't care, because the 'system' is ethnic cleansing. Money is no object for their end-goal.

might be time to introduce those failing to understand the concept ’people will laugh when you die if you are an evil person while you are alive’ to a little known book called A Christmas Carol

As always, there are two sexualities: Straight and Political

Honestly, the most insane thing about Derek Jarman's 'Jubilee' is that to make London look post-apocalyptic they...did nothing. Parts of London still had rubble and ruins from WW2 and all the crew did was set some props on fire. This was made in 1977, released 1978.

I wish ill on JK Rowling

I think people need to understand that 'First They Came' is not about a slippery slope. It's about fascism. In particular: how it's a death cult. There's no such thing as a 'peaceful,' 'appeased,' or even 'happy' fascist. They will NEVER stop. That's why you give fascists NOTHING.

Yeah, to the people saying I'm a hypocrite for being anti gen-AI despite using spelling and grammar correction tools: take it away and I can still write. Occasionally I'll use the wrong 'their' but it'll still be *my* work. Take away your AI and you have nothing but "please write an article for me."

Shoutout to the mother of a trans teenager who was brutally murdered in a hatecrime. She displayed incredible insight and compassion by looking at how the mainstream media, fuelled by corrupt billionaires, has manufactured a global hate movement and deciding the problem was Mobile Phones.

The Blues Brothers and The Producers were the best portrayals of Nazis. You know when you got called 'the destruction of civilisation' for having pronouns on display, and you feel like the coolest thing alive? Unfortunately, that works with fascists too. Just show them as the weirdos they are.

People who're confused that Kier Starmer used to be a human rights lawyer need to understand that Goebells had a doctorate in literature.

UK media does this CONSTANTLY. "Controversial trans rights law" "Facing tough questions" - yeah, only because the paper/site publishes straight up lies and then the next day reports it as something the entire nation (especially the reader) agrees with.

I made an animation in 7 days! I hate it! Enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9pm...

This whole thing of demanding games have to be remade is like insisting they re-paint The Night Watch or re-write War and Peace. The whole point is that it existed in the time it was produced! Can't get your head around Persona 4? Final Fantasy IX? Fucking Hamlet? That's a skill issue.

The best thing about cutting Harry Potter out of your life is that not only can you replace it with actual good fiction, not only can you replace it with actual good fantasy, but you can also replace it with *other* C-Tier fantasy if there really is an aching void for something utterly mediocre.

The headquarters in Budapest for the Nazi-backed Arrow Cross immediately became headquarters for the soviets upon Hungary's regime change, with some of the Arrow Cross even still working there. It's now called The House of Terror. Hundreds were tortured in its basements.

The ultimate fallacy with 'nuclear weapons as a deterrent' is that *everyone* needs to have them. A group of global elite dictating who does and doesn't get the power of instant genocide will always mean there is an inherent worldwide inequality.

Still incredible to me that, as a middle eastern carpenter born in a stable who at least once was an asylum seeker, the majority of 'good Christians' would at best throw Jesus in a camp. At worst, they would crucify him all over again.

what randy's doing here is actually a sales technique that dates all the way back to the middle ages. google "randy pitchford medieval times" if you want to see him talk about it

When you're an accessory to so many crimes against humanity that your prostate inflates so large it touches your bones in protest

The only thing funnier than Israel repeatedly cheating with the public vote for Eurovision and not being banned is that they STILL don't win.

BEHOLD! My animation about the myth, the legend: BASIL THE BATLORD! Slaying witches since 1998, losing at GoKart since 1999, body like a back road since 1476! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYXU...

OK, so UK politics is fucked, but it's amazing how much less fucked it is then then US right now. Trump and his ilk are blatantly doing insider trading whilst in the UK a handful of people used confidential infomation to cheat on a betting site and got arrested. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"our enemy is attacking us with infantry" "IS THERE NO END TO THEIR BARBARITY? USING INFANTS OF ALL THINGS!"

There are some insane transphobes who're completely lost (JKR), but they are an incredibly antisocial minority. The majority of transphobes are just people indoctrinated by all the disinformation, and can do a complete 180 if you organise.

I wrote about my #THAC entry (which came 21st!) open.substack.com/pub/m9ax/p/p...

i do think that valve going into digital distribution and hardware is a bit like mozart deciding to wind down his composing to make harpsichords

the H.E.V suit jacks him off

everyone loves a puppygirl until her healthcare bill is massively inflated

more like spotify plapped BOOM BOOM

michael jackson is the sole winner of the "actually transition wouldn't have saved her" award

yeah winter is nice and cosy when you have your heating on full blast inside a clean, modern building that you never have to leave summer is also nice when you're in the airy shade in an insect free enviroment you never have to leave

I think the games industry should be nationalised just so there's a cap on specs. you can even fuck with developers by lowering the cap during times of hardship. "in these challenging times, the new cod must be developed for 2010 graphics cards. viva la revolution!"

dog owner: this is roy he's a stinky piece of shit roy: hiii hi hiii! will you be my friend? cat owner: this is mr tickle he is my love i will die for him mr tickle: GUARDS! CLAP THIS INTRUDER IN IRONS AND SEAL THEM WITHIN THE OBSIDIAN CELLS FORTHWITH! FORTHWITH I SAY! FORTHWITH!

scotland has the chance to do the funniest thing ever

it's ok, you can call JK Rowling a fascist here

btw the US (and the UK) backed a slaughter of innocent people whilst the superbowl was distracting you

i'd totally make a bionicle stop motion if the originals didn't have such shit articulation the toys got better as the lore got worse

i'm not saying everyone who studies romans is an imperialist, but every imperialist is a roman fan (with laughably wrong opinions about the fall of the empire)

roman empire worship really is just the 'cooler' version of white nationalism the same people frothing over tortoise formations probably shit themselves when you talk about african migration or homosexuality

since this is bluesky we should call every post a 'skype'

funny how it's not the queer community but prolific right wing voices who're always the sex abusers. almost as though the right always deflects onto minorities unable to defend themselves so they can stay in power...

still think every rpg should just trim 'persuasion,' 'intimidation,' 'barter,' 'seduction' and all that to just 'speech' i know it's weird having a 'talk' skill but not only is it simpler but you can rp as a person who occasionally goes non-verbal (and gordon freeman)

you have no idea how good it feels being on a website where jk rowling, elon musk, and the majority of mp's aren't. i know it's not an instant solution and there's a danger they'll just move over to here, but let me have this for just a moment...
