why are rich people so damn boring? if I had all the money in the world I would create my very own animation studio, pay all my employees really well and have them animate my favourite fanfictions

This is what I keep coming back to—from stuff like this, to the "debate me" MAGA bros who show up on college campuses: the desire on the right for prolonged engagement with the left is wildly asymmetrical and unreciprocated, and speaks to a kind of contempt laced with deep affinity and desire.

One would think people would realize after OSA how much the words "adult content" covers. Eg Sex , sex is political,it is for satisfaction,it's historical,it's biological, their are power structures, it's religious etc. adult just means "taken seriously" hence why news is caught. It's not just porn

we have to stop the religious right

The legislator behind the new Ohio age-verification law doesn't even know what's in the bill. He claims that it excludes social media sites. No such language exists. This is why you don't push something you couldn't get passed the normal way into an budget omnibus. www.wkbn.com/news/ohio/ho...

If youre in Ohio, you should really take the time to contavt your state and federal level representatives about Age-verification!

It's as though those of us who warned back in 2002 that Bush/Cheney were capitalizing on 9/11 to create a fascist federal force under a "Homeland Security" department aptly named after a Nuremberg nazi term were right about them all along. bsky.app/profile/volt...

Oft repeated Democratic Party scenario 1. Left wing adopts a logical fact based position that nationally polls *well above* 50% 2. Centrists say, "hush, we need to attract Republicans" 3. Dems lose 4. Centrists belatedly realize their error and/or blame left wing. Lather, rinse, repeat.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is - more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week) - more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages) - more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

Remember how lefties used to say "abolish ICE" back in the 2010s, and got roundly scolded by the centrists for it ever since, and now events have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were 1000% on the correct side of history, but somehow they're still being scolded? Fun.

Even with all the awareness that's been generated about these campaigns, I still think a lot of non-artist are in denial about what the effect is going to be. If censorship campaigns continue, there is going to be less stuff made. Polished projects are going to be rarer. #SaveArt #BskyCensorship

Short to mid-term, that's probably the best bet, but long term, we need to start detaching from anything dependent on traditional banks. Whether it's through shadow banking or something more esoteric is a discussion. Crypto has bad rep for good reasons, but the problems are with implementation.

Something that his has made for me is really harden my resolve that we more than ever need the indie web and just alternatives to basically everything being made but outside of the US and ideally non corporate owned.

imo the future of nsfw indies is to abandon mainstream platforms that are all finished with us and to build a decentralised network of small connectives, spanning across many digital spaces early 2000s whack a mole era gray markets approach out of interest, here's ours ❤️ @naughtyniche.art

Uh yeah no, relatively leftie person below the poverty line here, we don’t want this shit. We already have a Birth Certificate, and those of us who can afford one have passports too. NONE of us want a mandatory digital ID. We’re sick of ceding our privacy to the voyeuristic ruling class, (1/3)

Privileged cynics and historically marginalized communities don’t use “it’s always been this way” the same way and I think it’s starting to show as fascism gets worse Cynics use it to excuse their inaction and establish dominance, the marginalized use it to illuminate possibilities for change

Inevitably I think we're going to see the emergence of a clunky, awkward, but working gray market beyond storefronts. Difficult for massive scale & income, but not that different from how people pay for pics / vids / sexting off platform. CashApp with a coffee emoji, you get porn in a Discord DM.

Learning in school is not enough. You must continue to teach yourself throughout your life. Study history, read myths, memorize poems, get acquainted with the greatest philosophers & writers. In an age when tech is cooking many brains, we need an army of autodidacts.

They aren't bringing ID cards in to make people's lives easier, they are specifically bringing them in to make certain people's lives harder.

look it's not that I want to defend My Futanari Stepmom Neighbor DX: Snuff Edition, but does this not set an extremely dangerous precedent where we just have to let payment processors decide what is and isn't morally acceptable to sell

This, from the Quakers, is a pretty good example of how to resist pressure from bigot lobbying groups. Effectively “we legally can allow trans people to use the loo, we morally should, and we tried it and nothing bad happened”

I think some people are also scared to explore outside mainstream art because they might encounter something they fall in love with, but no one they know likes it. They don't want to be embarrassed or cringe or whatever by being the outsider.

Anyway, evergreen

Where's that one image of riamu on the toilet when i need it It's been a constant struggle for my life in the past like 16 hours

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

Sinkdog is a holy figure, I think she is an angel sent to this world to be a guiding light in difficult times

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Yankee Stadium vs. Dodger Stadium There’s a reason why in this house we support the Dodgers!!

Findomming, but it's adopting a NEET trans woman in her 20's and teaching her to be a responsible adult who can hold down a job and pay into the shared cost of living

This is likely the largest UN walkout of an Israeli leader in history. It should serve as a wake-up call for Israelis that Netanyahu is burning Israel's global support to shield himself from his own failures. Israel's fate should not be tied to him nor his extremist allies. Time to change course.

culture war shit circles around starbucks because the mormons have been waging a culture war over it forever because of their religion & normalizing the extremely specific and historically founded paranoia of that religion is a major project for the recent republican party

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

Reposting this now that I have more followers. Y'all missed out on some adorbs Neko Mahiro

Tell all your friends about Jellyfin or Plex! Educate everyone you know about aarr! Let's recreate the internet as it was in the 2000's before Netflix, but with the modern convenience of better metadata! Drain the corpo media companies for all they destroyed in their greed!

I don’t think the president should have the power to just arbitrarily declare online that IKEA cannot do business in the United States for no particular reason other than he feels like it

The crucial part of all this is they’re trying to instill a mentality of self-policing in the public. If the shock & awe wears off before that’s established, they can’t keep the oppression sustained.

one thing i think about @moiradonegan.bsky.social's point is that you never hear people go from "male loneliness" -> why don't we get men involved in collective projects of meaning for the most part. instead it's usually a discussion about how society is too "feminine"

Your reminder that they cannot arrest millions of people no matter how hard they try. They lack the infrastructure, they lack the personnel, and the economy would straight-up collapse They are going to try to scare us by making examples out of a few people, and our job is to not fall for it

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

Not sure why there are people out there embracing doomerism and saying that there's no way we can defeat Trump, that he's too much of an unstoppable force to beat. He couldn't even get Jimmy Kimmel off the air for a full week. You know why? Us. We did that.

So many of weapons that were developed to police sex workers — the moral panics, the abuse of data, the manipulation of press, the claims of false consciousness — are increasingly being turned against queers, trans and disabled communities.

Florida sheriff's department used ICE to round up sex workers under pretense of fighting human trafficking and child exploitation. Instead, they arrested 111 sex workers, none of whom was underage and none of which led to a human trafficking arrest.

Shout out to the guy in the Trader Joe's coffee aisle having a moment of tariff sticker shock that quickly evolved into a measured but real freakout about fascism

I get that it's hard to keep the pressure up on this shit because the last few months so much other shit has been going on with the fash ramping up the bullshit, but we can't let this die.

Fascism is extremism. Anti-fascism is not. We’re living in a period of reality inversion and moral inversion.
