Day 5, the longest of my five long days, is tomorrow. 14-15 hours because of driving downtown for turn-in and pickup. I am tired

New Firefox update allows you to block the AI crap. Turn that on immediately if you use Firefox.

Spear and Fang on their pretty Primal adventure. 🦖

The Paramount/WB merger is a consequence of government corruption and everybody involved should be prosecuted and the eye-popping fines should be clawed back from shareholders

RIP Rob Grant, writer and co-creator of Red Dwarf. I f**king LOVE those first few series.

There you go. An overt technofascist Trump ally will now own CBS, CNN, HBO, Paramount, Warner Brothers, Discovery, and a big chunk of TikTok

GOOD NEWS! A UNIVERSAL sarbecovirus vaccine candidate has OFFICIALLY started clinical trials. GBP511 is the FIRST vaccine to reach human testing that is intended to protect against MULTIPLE strains of SARS-CoV-2 as well as other related coronaviruses with the potential to spark dangerous outbreaks.

So we found Miller's alt I guess.

if you feel hopeless about the future, consider instead: blood-curdling rage and a thirst for vengeance

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

This is why people are so upset when people say Democrats need to stop focusing on trans issues because it's too woke and people aren't ready for it: we're not talking minor inconvenience here. We're not talking microaggressions We're talking: they are stripping IDs from trans people

a bunch of cloistered worms decided to make my fucking friends the national punching bag and I will never, ever forgive them

what if we made the entire administration out of article I violations

The UAE secretly paid Trump $187 million. Money in his pocket personally. And then Trump overrode decades of national security objections to selling Nvidia chips to UAE because we feared UAE would send the chips to China. Corruption has consequences.

Hating learning about annoying people I never even heard of and then finding out they’re barely out of college

I worshipped the Void, and what did it get me? A big nothing!

Repeatedly watching how she pulls the mic away when he speaks on private equity & I can't stop thinking about the way that our employment system forces people into craven cowards that have to do real-time self-preservation calculus that results in actions that conflict entirely with class solidarity

A whistleblower just disclosed that FBI experts were delayed by AT LEAST A DAY in deploying to investigate Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Why? There was an FBI plane and pilot shortage… because Kash Patel was using them for personal flights.

honestly once you recognize that most journalism companies don't want to make news anymore, a lot of their behavior makes way more sense

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

New piece on the strategic vacuum in Washington when it comes to understanding what a more independent, sovereign Europe actually means. I worry that even a more transatlantic-minded future administration will adapt very poorly to no longer being able to call all the shots in the alliance.

as far as i can tell “bio hacking” is just a goofy term for giving yourself some combination of an eating disorder and a drug addiction

Aria's Purrloin!

Good News. #Science tech.slashdot.org/story/26/02/...

So today, the last short day before a week of 12-hour shifts, is National Margarita Day? I think I have a plan

this i think is key for how we approach protests. you may get arrested. the government will make up anything it wants. and then you will go to court and win because these chuds are morons. THEY ONLY WIN WHEN WE ARE TOO SCARED TO EVEN FIGHT

dance parties, yes—invited, idk

A quick character design and development for my roomie Steve's projects (a serpent with a faux cobra hairdo). More than he expected, including props, but better get everything out of the way before he asks for more. Will post on my pro Blu account (SFW). Polychromos (blueline), with Micron inks.

Every billionaire in the Epstein files could drop dead tomorrow and the world would not only be fine, it would actually improve. The quality of our media would improve. Our environment. Our food. Our health care. Our technology.

This doesn't seem worth having a Discord account

Five authors I’ve read at least five books by John Varley Alan Dean Foster Isaac Asimov C.S. Lewis Stephen R. Donaldson (Ray Bradbury wrote few actual novels)

sorry (not sorry) if this is a hot take, but I've seen conversation today about creators who are forced out of online spaces due to overzealous fan pressure, and I guess some people are suggesting that creators need to "not care" but you know what I think fans need to chill the fuck out fully

Georgia was skating to MORTAL KOMBAT at the Olympics exhibition gala

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

Day 21 of #28DaysOfBlackCosplay2026 features @kika.in.cosplay (on instagram!) as Eurydice from Hades!!! I have not seen nearly enough Hades cosplay, even tho the designs are SO. GREAT. #cosplayisforeveryone #28daysofblackcosplay #poccosplay
