Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

Ignore every instinct to flee, for you too are a monster.

tl;dr: Bluesky began with genuine promise: a new social media platform where users could feel safer, but inconsistent moderation quickly eroded trust. When systemically marginalized users pushed back, Bluesky’s leadership minimized concerns and began to target them for bans.

WOW....👀👀👀

MAGA: “why didn’t Biden release the files and why didn’t you guys call for it?!” America: “Because we assumed the justice dept was doing their job. But you all demanded it and now Trump is panicking…. So uh, ya now we def want to know why he’s panicking.” See? Easy!

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words. The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

So, idk if anyone else does this, but now and then I fo a "friend check in" where I will reach out to ppl I hadnt interacted with for a bit. Not to guilt them or anything, just see how life is going. Rarerly I will get the 1 person who comes back with, "this better be impprtant"...

When calling your reps denanding they block/repeal age/ID laws, mentioning how many of these laws on fact BLOCK CSA victins from support is something you should do! We can "think of the children" right back at them

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

perhaps the best way to intervene or counter-protest this vigil would be to play recordings of kirk's own voice saying heinous shit, as loud as you can, so that they're forced to hear it over whatever they're trying to do

Do this to voice your outrage at Disney's unjust cancellation of Kimmel and other people's shows for simply practicing their free speech, ASAP.

“Over the past 20 years, Paris has undergone a major physical transformation, trading automotive arteries for bike lanes, adding green spaces and eliminating 50,000 parking spaces. Part of the payoff has been invisible — in the air itself.” Leadership, strategy, real action, common sense. #Paris

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution. But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable

Finally on vacation time, within an hour of getting off work, was in my shed i hadnt opened in like a yr. Ugh the art flow is coming back.

Ah, my "every 5-6yr" time to have a manager try to "tame me". Good fuck luck bud, i have out lasted many managers before you decided to be one.

Hey all, Sudden request to everyone who can. A very sweet individual got hit with some sudden bad news, and may become homeless in a short amount of time. If you all can spread this, and if possible donate(remember every bit helps). ko-fi.com/stinkypurple... They do streams as well

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Everyone wants to contribute. Many don’t want to put the effort into actually learning how to make contributions that are substantive. AI gives people a lazy out. “I can’t do it anyway, so why bother.” That’s quitter talk. Don’t be a quitter.

“Some of us aren’t creative enough to brainstorm without ChatGPT.” is like saying, “Some of us aren’t good enough at cooking without ordering food from a restaurant.” The ONLY way to remedy this is learning how to cook. You can order daily from a restaurant. None of it is your cooking.

So while Stripe and PayPal should keep getting calls, Stripe has said that their banking partners are giving them issues. Who are they? • Fifth Third Bank (!!) • Evolve Bank (!!) • Goldman Sachs • Citibank • Barclays (UK) Sources: techcrunch.com/2020/12/03/s... stripe.com/treasury Keep calling.

Keep the two distinct in your head.

Me: "it's a shame I can't have any influence on these issues from within my country, i want to help the cause, but it's outside my legal influence. I wish there was more I could do to help the causes I support." The monkey's paw:

Heads up all you handsome wonderful creatures. You might have a weird +/- follow. I set up my House finally, which means any of you of the more spicier sides will get shuffled over there. It's just my way of not scaring some of the normies I interact with by letting them see past the curtain.

Don't be fooled by this. This is very similar to the bill that just got passed in the UK. If this passes in the states, you can kiss the internet as you currently know it goodbye. Its never about protecting kids. Its about censorship.

“Don’t call because it won’t work” => MasterCard and Visa both have started saying things to get people to STOP calling. Whether “we escalated and are expecting a policy update” or “here is a boilerplate statement we read to our callers” If they didn’t care, they wouldn’t be deescalating us

Full transparency… It’s a little hard to pinpoint how much everything is going to cost financially, so Prof and I raised the goal for the GoFundMe. There is no pressure to keep supporting! But huge thank you for all of the amazing support while I go through treatment! gofund.me/9a6d3da6

The Guardian just covered the Steam / itchio situation www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill! And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic! We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥

I made a quick and dirty anti-censorship cheat sheet to help onboard people and direct their energy in a productive direction. This isnt as comprehensive as various websites being shared around, but it should be easy to share and save. Save the png and repost as widely as you can
