“These clowns are literally a party of pedophiles and pedophile enablers. I want the debate held within 1,000 feet of a school so my opponent can’t attend”

I honestly think these "moderates" think "oh trans people are only x% of the population - we can throw them under the bus," which is EVIL on its face... ...but also trans people have families and friends? Who are fucking FURIOUS at loser Ds who throw their loved ones under the bus?

This is not a scientific report. It is a self congratulatory press release around how much better ChatGPT-5 is at responding to mental health concerns (as defined by OpenAI). OpenAI is neither a research nor clinical institution. It is a company trying to build a financially successful product.

SNAP isn’t the only program at risk because of the Republican shutdown. 134 Head Start programs across 41 states (including Maine) could also lose funding. If these centers close, kids will go hungry, parents will lose child care, and an essential source of stability will disappear overnight.

All my ink was practice. I have nice things that I bought during better days; I hold on to them jealously and maintain what needs it, because I may never see it again otherwise. These are cold comfort when the work you do and the taxes you pay fail to fulfill basic necessities.

Happy 3rd birthday, SIGNALIS

one of the biggest problems they have with Zohran Mamdani is that they perceive him as talking out of turn

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this

I honestly wonder (and worry) if people understand how bad its about to get. Know where your food banks are and donate to them if you can.

Also worth noting that this sentence in the @nydailynews.com's editorial is not only bullshit, but also grammatically incoherent. "are both dead letters" seems to refer to "two new taxes," but it actually refers to the subject "his goal," which is singular, not plural. Embarrassing!

SNAP is probably the most effective federal dollar we spend in terms of long term domestic economic outcomes. that isn’t why you should support it; you should support it because it is a moral imperative to feed the hungry. but it’s why even a growth-oriented ghoul shouldn’t oppose it.

A Take: Both Sonic and Bubsy were superior games to Super Mario World at the design phase. Sonic failed over time because the first game failed to make Normal movement fun, then the franchise took that and ran with it until it threw up on itself. Bubsy failed because it's Bubsy.

Probably-cold take, but I fucking mean it: Super Mario Bros. (1993) is, 1: A cyberpunk film. 2: A wholly superior cyberpunk film to Blade Runner (1982).

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.

There's just something extremely satisfying about a dice pool.

This came up in my reels a few days ago & I haven't been able to stop thinking about it

Being Muslim is not antisemitic. Being Palestinian is not antisemitic. Supporting Palestine is not antisemitic. Jews who support Mamdani are not self hating. Jews who support Palestine are not self hating. I've had more than enough of this bullshit.

The issue with politics, is that it mirrors personal life in that the prime question often becomes not "is this legal," but "is this fucked up?" We, as humans, are supposed to avoid doing fucked up shit. That's like the #1 rule of humans, and apparently NO politician has to follow it. FUCK

but i have yet to wake up just *once* since i was six yrs old & not have outside agencies remind me of or try to keep me in "my place". & oppression is not always something overt & heavy-handed... & sometimes it be your own people, themselves beat into shapes theyd rather not see of themselves.

Safe and sound, broham :)

Thank for being irredeemably you, Gail!

Well pay no mind to silly shows. We don't need that for HBCU representation. Did y'all know about this anthology of love stories set at HBCUs that has Kiese Laymon, Dawnie Walton, Elizabeth Acevedo & more in it? Get into this. #blackbooksky

Hell yeah

Zohran Mamdani's promises of free busses might sound great, but I live in Albuquerque NM where city busses have been free for five years and I'm here to tell you the truth. This is what every bus in my city looks like now. Think carefully about your choice this November.

Women created public schooling in the United States. Women employed in the oldest and most marginalized vocation, in fact. Pretty sure women also invented cheese, which, like... Holy shit.

Women started fandom. Women started fanfic. Women started star Trek cons. Women invented beer, and the novel, while we're at it. Stop trying to erase women from spaces, you stupid, lazy, misogynistic fucks.

The Maine subreddit is like 70% people saying "he's not a Nazi he's just a dumb guy & idk what's so bad about sending him to congress & after all we're we all using gay as a slur & saying racist pro rape shit here on reddit in our 30s" anyhow Maine is 91.34% white NYC is 31.2% white, in contrast

Little worried mouse #art

The whole Platner defense seems to amount to, if someone is wearing swastika armband but then take it off and claim they were wearing it by mistake, you must immediately embrace them. And if you have lingering suspicions, don’t you think you’re being just a bit whiny and neurotic?

I would absolutely attach Chris Stuckmann to direct another horror movie based on the potential I saw in SHELBY OAKS.

LMAO. If you think this is true of Star Trek (or any sci fi), it is because you affirmatively pushed non-male Trekkies out of your group with sexism and you should work on that.

People are subjected to this philosophy from the moment they enter the public school system.

Trans woman calling attention to racial and religious injustice in China call her Liv Uyghur

I’m not a Trekkie but I’ve done enough basic research into the Star Trek fandom to know women basically invented it, and are why the show even continued to exist. This kind of writing is part of institutional sexism that denies women’s accomplishments and role in history and it infuriates me

This movie is the peak of punching up humor. It's a movie that punches up nearly constantly. It's a master class.

I got the chance to dip my toes into Era of Silence a couple years back. It's a very, very engaging world, with neat systems and technical design. But my brain still drifts back to the world a couple years later. I strongly suggest supporting.

but isnt fiction, it's history, and the alien invaders were the ancestors of today's white ruling class, a class still benefitting from the resources of that invasion... so that narrative has no commercial or cultural value as a romanticism or commodity to the beneficiaries of colonialism & slavery.

I don't think the U.S. military has gone hot against an equal enemy since WWII. Complete bullshit fabrications and handwaving have been the primary reasons since then, as well. So jumping Venezuela is normal American president shit. Which is evil! But it's just Normal American President evil.

Lyudmila Pavlichenko is an absolute inspiration & one of my personal heroes.

There's a wetlands a few miles out. On really rare spring and summer nights, the year-round, ever-present wind will shift just right. If you're lucky, you'll experience a moment where all you can smell is that perfect, rich, essential gaminess of the marsh cut only by lilac.

Well, State run media only shows what the ruling class decides what is news worthy.

Think of hope as a decision, not an emotion. A choice you make, and then work toward fulfilling. Very few good things come without effort.

Appendicitis, believe it or not, is no joke.
