Look at dis and contact ya reps about how bad this is if it helps Kosa passing would mean almost every site online especially social media and YouTube or such will need ID verification and it won't be optional x.com/i/status/206...

I would never EVER DM people asking for money. Please report the account if you receive a message like this! It seems theyre just going through my following list and hitting up every single person...jobless behavior... 🫠

AI peaked with the expired coupon for new parents.

I cannot emphasize the degree to which a data center next to a zoo is a massive endless Endangered Species Act violation. If this happens it /will/ be the end of the facility. Air quality issues kill birds. Constant loud noise destroys animal welfare. Both decimate visitorship. The zoo will close.

If AI-generated placeholders keep slipping into final releases, then perhaps you should stpp generating your placeholders.

Truth nuke

The moment Trump started dismantling green energy, everyone else should have tripled down on it at state levels. He’s set up the country to be even more totally at the whim of the oil market than before, and it’s bizarre his opponents don’t see this as worth exploring outside occasional attack ads.

Wild lot of men who couldn't bear to wear a face mask to save the lives of strangers able to bear them to intimidate strangers on the streets of Northern Ireland tonight.

For no reason. I am BEGGING people to up the saturation on dark skinned characters. Please I beg. You don’t have to be scared of your characters getting too dark. Mooooooove your saturation slider. Stop making your brown people ashy corpses 😭😭😭

Musk functionally ran the US government for 6 months last year and managed to: increase spending, slash services, kill 100,000s, and help nurture both Ebola & Screwworms. Yet somehow no one mentions this when they talk about the company he is going to take public this week.

They’re trying to build a data center next to the Nashville Zoo Petition here, if you’re so inclined: c.org/KxhXznzBcD

I can’t get over all the journalists and centrist pundits who sneered that “Twitter isn’t real life” when it was full of weird leftists but now insist it’s a vital window into the public mood when the entire site is Nazis, illegal porn, bots, and Belarusians calling themselves “Iowa MAGA Farm Guy”

🚨 BOOST 🚨 Please help her out. One of the people who assaulted her was a Patriot Front Nazi. Of course the cops didn't arrest him, and now she's facing charges and will need legal funding.

If you're against trans kids getting hormones because "kids don't know their gender," but you don't think all kids should be on puberty blockers, you're queerphobic. If you're fine with permanent changes so long as they AREN'T queer ones, the problem can't be "kids too young for permanent changes."

This is what the state does to trans women - trans folks at large - who draw guns or use violence to defend ourselves from violent assault or sexual violence. Our self defense is always deemed far more unacceptable than our victimization.

My state is currently proposing a 50% tax on porn. This would wipe out my income. There is a 15.3% self employment tax and onlyfans takes 20%. This would mean if I was tipped $100, my take home would be $15. This isn't a tax, it's a fucking ban.

Reminder: Fangames are just fanfiction with extra steps, and fangames have gotten people jobs plenty of times in the past.

republicans left the city en masse and you will absolutely believe what happened next

Hot take but being indifferent to sexual violence regardless of its victims is itself fascist and also kills your soul. We're against rape because rape is patriarchal violence, not because we fucking love every survivor. That's not how that works!!!

We will never create a better world until we learn to include the freakiest of us. And yes I do mean, specifically, freakier than what you're comfortable with. Learn to be harmlessly uncomfortable with harmlessly uncomfortable things.

HE'S FUCKING SIDING WITH THE FUCKING NAZIS IN THE D-DAY MEMORIAL where is GI Robot, honestly?

taking heart that while old directors on death's doorstep are cashing checks for wheezing "AI is the future we must embrace the slop" the kids just coming up are like "fuck AI it sucks complete ass"

something to be said about how this attitude interacts with increasingly overt RW attacks on women's right to vote. the votes of women are perceived as an unreliable resource because there is always the quiet possibility that they can be, or might one day be, revoked.

Sex workers have been banging the drum that moral panics around porn are a fascist project for years and years and people on this website still go "but it's ickyyyyy it's probably baaad for socieeetyyy"

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

Happy to see the project fronted by a trans creator overcome the movie that is being promoted with pronoun jokes

If you are still using Twitter, you are actively perpetuating the destruction of the American working class via proxy and admittedly I think less of you for it. Your convenience and serotonin addiction are actively working against you with the end goal of making you a wage slave for Oligarchs.

okay, I just had to block one otherwise cool person because bluesky kept serving their spoiler-filled thread at the top of my TL over and over again, but it's also kinda their own fault for posting in the first place the second they walked out of the fucking cinema, I guess???

Why tf are ppl posting spoilers for TADC right fucking now? it JUST came out. like, idc how you tag it, the whole thread shows up on my TL right away and I had to like, rapid scroll just to ignore it. This fucking fandom, I swear.

The excuses for Platner sound identical to the justifications Republicans make for Trump. It’s not a good look.

There are and have always been great Jewish anti-Israel activists. They can lead the charge, not fucking Platner or Tucker...

"Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism" is only a meaningful slogan if you actually do the work to keep the genuine bona fide antisemites out of the anti-Zionist political movement.

Since Israel's genocide in Gaza, I have worked to convince my Jewish family that anti-Israel politics is not all antisemitism and is in fact justified at this moment in time, with some success. Making a guy with a Nazi tattoo the face of anti-Israel politics in the US makes that job so much harder.

AI is bad everywhere but I find it especially evil that it's being used for a remake of a game that *pioneered* the jump to 3D graphics. Tomb Raider was literally generational and having AI go anywhere near it is shockingly disrespectful

There is a certain irony in cattle people throwing all of their weight behind an administration that promised to be friendly to rancher politics, only for that administration to allow a hideous cattle parasite to make it into Texas because cooperating with Mexico is woke and gay

many people who would have lived longer will die because of this. he’s one of the most destructive people on the planet.

This is why it's so important to push back against the right at both an institutional and grassroots level. The far right has spent decades on ideological projects to divide and conquer. When you concede on narratives or treat bigotry as a debate to be had, it becomes a material threat to everyone.

Yet another example of Why There Are No Ethical Billionaires: Dolly Parton could be a billionaire. She's not because she pays her employees a living wage with good benefits and does stuff like this, donating heavily to charities including relief funds when the community suffers a natural disaster.

A new op-ed in the Washington Times finally says the quiet part out loud: Fascism demands sexual repression. "Pornography corrodes the exact social foundation that supports national strength... A society marked by loneliness, weakened families and diminished social trust becomes brittle."

I know I'm a broken record, but Trump *not* releasing his taxes as he promised and the IRS *not* auditing his taxes every year and releasing the results like they have for every goddamn president for forty years is the actual scandal. This won't outlast his term and should be fought right now

It’s not generally reported on, but in many cases, when ICE snatches parents, this leaves the children in the house alone, with no idea why, hiding and waiting until the food runs out, at which point the oldest goes and knocks on neighbors doors to ask why their mommy and daddy are gone.

Its why I really Really REALLY don't like people who sneer and say "AC is a luxury no one ever needs, we lived thousands of years before it" Yeah and how many fucking died to exposure, hot or cold.

Further proof that Musk is doing a Remo Williams. He's pretending to build rockets that might someday work by getting 10B in taxpayer funds and spending 1B blowing it up and pocketing the other 9B and then asking for another 10B. His rockets will never work because they aren't supposed to.
