One of the problems with Bluesky is you get debates about something where a fundimental component is racism but everyone on every side of the argument is white and all of their positions are completely incoherent and it's just like well I'm not going to get screamed Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Me: Lynching is bad White Men in comments: what about Black on Black crime? Me: even if Black on Black crime was as bad as you think it is (and it isn’t), that still doesn’t give y’all the right to just kill us. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE EXAMINE WHY YOU WANT TO KILL US SO BADLY

I don’t argue or explain shit to white people because they’ll find a way to dodge accountability

Well that’s the model. The mock you, harm you then….. Everything you were saying makes “perfect sense” when it comes from them not you

I wish I could convince myself that it’s a good film cos look at this

Geeze we're old... creators.yahoo.com/lifestyle/st...

maybe "work ethic" is the biggest scam in human history. people will whip you with that one til you're dead. besides subsistence, drive comes from passion. it's a manipulative stick to beat you with

when the kiddo already knows the secret to life. me: "how was picture day?" 7-year-old: "outside me was smiling, while inside me was sweaty and annoyed"

I was speaking to a lady who arrived last night to the shelter and she told me she had been calling DV shelters for a year! I told her that I have been calling for 8 months! You need to understand that USA has a shelter crisis. Homelessness has increased 18% since 2023.

this happened so quickly everyone thinks I'm commenting on a current event instead of just predicting what obviously would happen

nice to see white ladies call out the "purity test" and "circular firing squad" rhetoric as total bullshit

One day yall will accept that the wives of Nazis don't give a shit that their husband is a Nazi and stop trying to coddle them because of your latent benevolent sexist beliefs.

This conference is more AI than JavaScript and so far a cockfest 😭

Ooof ... Australian Court just upheld Australian Govt decision to refuse Candice Owens Farmer (she drops the last name in her promo stuff) a visa to do a paid speaking tour. I assume that'll kill off her trip here, too (on practical grounds, even though Chris Penk gave her permission to come).

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, call up your local heavy equipment rental place and ask about their rates. Renting a backhoe is actually a lot more affordable than it may seem, and those things can basically scoop out a grave-sized slot out of the earth in a matter of minutes

If you’re reading this, you’ve made it thru today. Congrats. See you tomorrow. Here for a reason. Being here is a blessing and a privilege. Goodnight

Of all the disgusting attributes of carbrain in our fight to make it safe/legal for uncarred humans to travel where we like, when we like, nothing disgusts me more than carbrained "advocates for the disabled" who pretend safe streets discriminate against disabled people. First of all: they do not.

Slut shaming has been completely corrupted from a way of describing how women were punished for being sexual To become a way for women whose odious and terrible abusive tendencies and fascist behavior includes sleeping with assholes and abusing other women To avoid consequences permanently

The forces of white Christian nationalism are ascendant all over and our newsroom leaders are not only refusing to call it out, they are acquiescing.

If someone expresses their desire, intention, or musing to leave the games industry the response should not be "Couldn't hack it, huh?" No one should need to "hack it".

Any time somebody talks about "accountability" for fictional characters, I get a vivid mental image of, like, that one Jean-Paul Laurens painting of the Cadaver Synod, except instead of some kind of fucked up skeleton on the throne it's a printout of somebody's fanfic.

While I think it’s never too late to leave Twitter I’m still going to be a little bit judgy about staying this long.

Watching city council. I carry my passport everyday too. And I know many of my white friends do not. That’s privilege. That’s racism in action. Who’s gonna get stopped? Who’s assumed to be a citizen?

genocide of people will continue to happen if the genocide of animal life, sea life, and plant life continues as well. we are interconnected. exterminating life is exterminating life. we cannot fix one without fixing the other. start by lessening the harm of your current extermination.

Promise me that yall aren't going to platform the eventual "repentent ICE agent" stories that will come out...

It’s all rich white people fault

And everyone was so furious about it when you mentioned While using Black cultural ( “Notorious RGB”) to hype her while she was racist as hell but considering the authors…….

How long you think before Candace Owens gets the Halle Berry treatment from her husband and she comes crying online about how she didn't know her husband was a virulent racist?

What they really want to do is eliminate our existence. Most of us, anyway.

finally he does something other than punch people

Stuff and NZ Herald running detailed articles and "proof" of how Matt Mowbray is innocent of being the name suppression rich lister caught with highly abusive/cruel child sex materials is weird & a waste of time. You could literally just share his age & it would be done - Mat isn't 46 #Kiwi

Once you have called disabled people a burden, you have facilitated the devaluation, dehumanization and death of disabled people.

people will just come on here and say anything!!!

Even as someone who studies historical fascism, I never realized how normalized everything gets so quickly. Like I’m still going to work and doing my job, when people are being kidnapped and the loyalty oaths are starting to be required. Let’s see if I have a job my the end of this academic year.

youtubers that put spoilers in the thumbnail i wish you a bad day and hope you stain your favorite white shirt

deadlines exist to prevent you from having time to use the lessons you learned while making something to just continue improving that thing. which is why the next thing you make will be even better than the last thing - me telling myself it's time to export and move on 💀

also peak comedy to fuck up in a raid, an assignment, something at work, something IRL, or whatever and go “god im so sexy. my bad.” and then move on

And like for me Racist jackoff doesn’t always mean does bad work But I also work in a field where not noticing someone is a specific kind of racist makes you bad at your job or complicit

Imma be vulnerable a lil bit but I want to wind this out online because I think it’s relevant … I don’t think that just because someone is racist it means they’re not valuable , or that I’m always right . I mean that it affects the way the reason and order things

ICE sports a fucking swastika tattoo while attempting an abduction. Of course normally federal agents are not allowed to have Nazi tattoos. I can't believe I just made this post. Am I concussed and dreaming?

In my experience, this also has an added bonus that because you‘ve stepped back from tangling your work with your sense of self, you can more objectively see your strengths & weaknesses in a way that helps you embrace growth & improvement without beating yourself up for not already being the BEST.

I’ve been working for 15 years as an animator and I can tell you without a doubt, the best fix I ever found for imposter syndrome is living a full life where your days and worth don’t hinge on whether or not you were a good animator today.

Just look at the police line defending Luxon in Dunedin. Meanwhile crimes are up, they can't even recruit 30 of the promised 500 new cops,police don't even bother to investigate over 5000 retail crimes & a raging meth & cocaine crisis goes ignored #nzpol Photo courtesy @petesi.me
