Now's the time to call up Visa/MC to ask 'hey, how come you guys will pay for ChatGPT and Twitter subs but I can't buy certain games off of Steam?' Because I frankly would LOVE an answer to that...

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE and their owner is helping to develop military AI. Maybe hit that "cancel my account" button?

There was a typhoon that hit western Alaska and has hit a lot of rural and indigenous communities to where whole houses were floated away. There’s a disaster relief fund available to help those that were affected by it where you can share and or donate alaskacf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/c...

It is not too late for you to start wearing a mask in public. It is not too late for you to start advocating clean air. It is not too late for you to learn how to build your own air filters or to tap in with folks already doing so. They want you sick. They want your neighbors sick. Tell them no.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation Depraved. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

ye see this shits not inevitable never give up in advance

🚨🚨 My dear friend and fellow academic, the Palestinian American sociologist @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social has been taken by the Cook County Sheriff near Chicago. They have not mirandized her. Please signal boost. All eyes on Broadview for Eman and the community she was defending 🚨🚨

She is one of our true elders and there are so few left. She deserves the best healthcare available, but this is America. Full story: www.advocate.com/news/stonewa...

Covid is rampant right now so please get the newest booster if you haven't yet. I have multiple friends and a neighbor with covid right now. The pharmacist might still ask in person if you're high risk (I wasn't asked, my partner was) but you don't have to give details or proof and just say yes.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others. Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla: “People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.” 1/3

KOSA is now in red alert priority. Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA We need to turn out in numbers against this!

today I learned that @surasshu.com has this massive blocklist for youtube channels that hock bullshit AI generated music, if you're like me and enjoy vapourwave you know it's a fuckin minefield out there so this helps TREMENDOUSLY surasshu.com/blocklist-fo...

Same goes for public schools, colleges, and universities.

Italy has moved me to tears for 3 days straight. Bravo ❤️

Hey white people! All that smoke you had for Disney and ABC and shit? Send that same smoke to the Black folks who lost their jobs for the same damn reason.

If you were concerned about Kimmel, here's another for you… Journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for 100+ days, ironically arrested as he reported on a "No Kings" protest. The Trump-Vance admin just issued an order of final removal, to send him to El Salvador—where he fled from 21 years ago.

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

bluesky is one thing, but these bozos are still the biggest threat to freedom of expression in erotic art please keep calling and annoying them 🙏💗💗💗

Signed. Fuck ICE, free Palestine, end fascism.

if you have a library card (which all of you should have), you most likely have free (!!!) access to Kanopy aka an underrated, ad free streaming service with a ton of movies + short films FREE!!! through the library!!! your smart tv most likely as an app for it- mine does!

there's always a John Waters quote, it seems

Hi! We're an association of almost 2,000 cartoonists from across the globe. We've been trying to get in contact with you about your upcoming policy changes for some time now! Please get back to us via email or let us know who else we could talk to in a timely manner.

Still got stickers available btw 📺✨

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

Support local artists, support independent artists. With pocketbooks that are being hurt by a tariff war that absolutely nobody asked for, your support could help make a difference in a down year

to anyone who, in defense of elected leaders doing little to help release fascism's grip beyond writing strongly worded emails, asks "how else could our elected officials possibly fight back??": here's a lovely example.

Free Palestine forever 🇵🇸

so many have told me they seem me as resilient and chill, but I'm not. I'm violently bipolar and have been since I was a teenager and only in the past 5 years gotten medicated for it. it's because I'm capricious and emotionally volatile that I've gotten extremely good at grounding myself in chaos

nihilism or guilt at feeling "okay" as the world burns is exactly what fascists want you to feel because if they can't kill you then they want you miserable and punished for daring to be alive anyway feeling happy is not the same thing as being self-centered or complacent

Lastly, here's the COMPLETE SCHEDULE so you can see when your favorite artists are on-roster! This season we have a couple of artists who usually don't take commissions, so now's your chance if you ever wanted a personal piece from them for a good cause!!! bsky.app/profile/pals...

New faces Jingjingcomics & Liah have joined the D4D team this time and they won't be back till later in the season, so catch them while you can 👀 Get an artist's doodle for every €10 d0nated to the Wessam Family in North Gaza! 🎨Check out art samples & info below! #pals4pal #d4d #commissions

Stop complying in advance.

You gotta randomly tell ppl in your life you proud of them, how they’ve affected you. How happy you are for them. There is no right moment. Make it awkward. Make it random.

Art therapy from when I was in Sad Camp (partial hospitalization program). I forget what the prompt was, it was from my first week of the program so I was feeling everything very intensely.

They aren't backing down, they're getting MORE aggressive So we need to get more aggressive too. Keep calling the payment pros. Start sending them letters. Contact your reps too & let them know you think censoring the internet and especially giving payment processors this kind of power is BAD

I have a lot, but think about this one often

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.

The policing of "tone" and "civility" and "incitement" is always completely one-sided.

just a friendly reminder 😀👍
