big brat energy XD

....oh. B12 intake modulates acne according to this paper pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... also maybe B7 (biotin) but the evidence seems much less clear-cut there based off a quick Google

Cuddle up with the warm Charizard boyfriend this winter season

Let them eat static. Every person I've lost contact with was for a good reason. It's not a bad thing to lose contact with toxic people.

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

wishing fun festivities to all 🤍

“How can you suddenly dislike art when you find out it’s made by AI?” For the same reason I can dislike art when I find out the employees were overworked and underpaid. Because I care about people. You dipshit.

Secret Santa art for @alfa995.bsky.social Thx so much for the opportunity to draw your girls. Been a fan for a long time :3

Happy Holidays from Erin and the rest of the reindeer rest stop crew! They sure were busy last night! #furryart #nsfw

i personally get STI testing around every 1.5 months. some folks do every 3 months. the CDC’s bare minimum rec is once a year. i have never gotten an STI because any people I do hook up with are also testing, have destigmatized disclosure, & prioritize communication. PrEP & DoxyPEP save lives.

At the HHS announcement yesterday announcing proposed rules to ban GAC, they said trans people are "at the root of the evils we face" and are "a hatred for nature as God designed it and for life as it was meant to be lived.” Just in case you thought it was about concerns for proper healthcare.

And no I don’t care if you’re “in a relationship” everyone who has sex should be getting tested on a regular basis and yes I think you’re coo coo if you don’t

Talking to straight monogamous people about how infrequently they get std tested is one of the scariest conversations you can have as a queer polyam person. Like oh wow

"Fine, we'll do it ourselves."

📖 Bytes of Game Ads 📺 What a cool 3D-effect double page ad for ASCII's Cosmo Genesis (Star Voyager), a pretty nifty space shooter of the kind I'm fond of, where you hop around a grid similar to Star Master or Solaris.

rose rose rose rose rose!! (just a rust-exorcising warmup)

One of the few useful lessons from Tumblr is "Kung Pow Penis." Find the one piece of stupid bullshit that makes insufferable people freak out irrationally, and use it against them like a machine gun instead of getting sucked into discourse.

hi, cis folks! this week, with some democrat votes, 2 anti-trans bills passed the house. one bans medicaid funds for trans youth care, the other proposes jail time for providers. they haven't passed the senate, but dems may need convincing to vote no on both. tap into the 🧵for a quick action.

Latest @crittermatic.bsky.social post got Demon act up. Had to do lil fanart of Angus~

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the MOST dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with OVER 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed STRONG antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.

This is what wanting to fuck a fictional character feels like

AI has the property of multiplying the personal biases of the humans who program it and feed it training data. Current methods of "just throw whatever we got in there" are going to make people of the future wince, the way we do at lax safety in factories of the 1800s.

Oh look yet another article about the supposedly “revolutionary” “cancer detecting” “AI” being shit at its job. Can we quit pretending this garbage has “good uses” yet?

It was a very discombobulating experience this year to see someone (in a rebuttal to a review I had submitted for their paper) cite a paper by me, on a topic I publish in, in a journal I publish in, with coauthors I publish with, but which DIDN’T EXIST! Stop this crap immediately.

can't stop watching this clip of a tesla Optimus teleoperator taking his headset off before properly logging out the robot

I am brimming with holiday spirit

Primary finding is that millennials are terrible at finding the porn they like. “Fetish”?

It’s not like there’s a magical fix for this! (There is however a medical, scientific, functional one) #Vaccines #Saves #Lives

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.

This is batshit invasive and unworkable. Privacy is a human right.

Yea everytime I play it, I'm so much more "smash the system" than Johnny. Like no shit the obvi ending I want is solo tower invasion, kill arasaka, anarchy! Johnny is the equivalent of a shitty leftist bro type who's all vibes and has zilch for solidarity. I tolerate him as a means to an end.

Remember, the people who hid Anne Frank were breaking the law, the Nazis murdering people were following it. Laws are not always just and right.

KOSA has been defeated several times already and they keep trying over and over until the one time it goes through, at which point it becomes everyone's problem. It will be an unmitigated disaster if this passes and they say, well, sorry, now it's the law. Make sure your creature votes No on this.

"Check on your trans frie-" No. Give them money. Hire them. Buy them a video game.

it is terrifying and awful that this passed the House with any Dem support at all (and once again, the continued leadership support for Cuellar is unconscionable) call your senators and make absolutely sure this dies in the Senate, lives are on the line trans people deserve so much better

i made a helpful reference

i made a template you can use to think about what "frame/negation/kirby" looks like for other issues. For example: Frame: DOGE is a govt efficiency project to save $ Negation: Actually it made things less efficient and cost $ Kirby: DOGE was a project to break and privatize federal bureaucracy

I am reminded of Lincoln's famous letter to Joshua Speed in 1855 quod.lib.umich.edu/l/lincoln/li...

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

Oh to be a little Tardigrade walking across a microscopic slide. 🫧🐻🧪

WROWOW I’m ready for rock climbing :]

The Last Jedi is a film about the failure of an entire generation who believed they had defeated fascism only to allow it to creep back almost unopposed into their lives. Leading the charge against the anti-fascists is an incredibly angry incel, indoctrinated by the ideology of a hateful bigot.
