The Guardian is reporting that since Israel and Hamas signed the ceasefire and full hostage exchange agreement, Israel has violated the ceasefire 47 times, killed 38 Palestinians, and wounded another 143 more. Meanwhile Hamas has released all remaining hostages. It Was Never About The Hostages.

I feel like this needs to be shared, read, and understood. For reference: Animal Farm, George Owell – ~30k The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, C S Lewis – ~38k The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald – ~47k Carrie, Stephen King – ~61k A Wizard of Earthsea, Ursula K. Le Guin – ~56k #Fanfiction

When you’ve pissed off WeRateDogs so much they’re calling you “fucking losers” on Main you have absolutely lost all merit in the court of public opinion

Now's the time to call up Visa/MC to ask 'hey, how come you guys will pay for ChatGPT and Twitter subs but I can't buy certain games off of Steam?' Because I frankly would LOVE an answer to that...

Cringe idiots who would use this are already the sort who use CGPT to write their dating profiles and opening messages. So... will it also write *their* portion of the sexting? What is the POINT? Good fucking lord. Read smutty fanfic, cultivate a personality and friendships and get a ERP partner ffs

hey btw if you link spotify and discord spotify will actively listen in on your calls to identify if you're ever streaming your music so that it can pause it to prevent music sharing but i'm sure there's no other use for an app that records your calls, owned by someone supporting fascist extremism

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Man I hope I’m wrong and hell is real

BUT HEY! THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

We’re just out and out parading eugenics support now, huh?

CALIFORNIANS! you can help make our state better and safer for trans people RIGHT NOW by telling Newsom he needs to sign these bills! We need you!

The fellow members of the flotilla who were arrested with Greta describe her as being tortured in front of them, and her being forced to kiss the Israeli flag. Israeli prison guards tortured Greta the most because she is the most high profile activist in their crew as a warning to the rest of them.

This whole section really.

when this shit crashes it's going to take down so many parts of the fucking economy and all of it in service of fucking vibe coding and pictures of shrimp jesus and Garfield doing 9/11

here's a reminder that discord has adopted a new arbitration policy, which means you have under 30 days to opt out of it

Julius Caesar was the first Roman to put his own living face on coins, weeks before his death. It is one of the deepest cultural signifiers of something autocracies do and republics do not. “Render unto Caesar.” A practice so notoriously arrogant Jesus himself dunked on it with snarky wordplay.

I don't give a shit so I _will_ name and shame here

if you work for ICE you’re evil. if you cheer ICE on, you’re evil. ICE has no positive value in this country. it’s just an outlet for people’s worst, most racist and violent impulses.

Release the files.

Apparently a lot of ppl needs to hear this #bskycensorship

👏👏👏

We need to fight for people like Guevara just as hard as we fought for Jimmy Kimmel.

remember! you arent calling representatives to change hearts and minds, youre calling in order to INTIMIDATE them through sheer numbers into backing down on dumbass censorship bills. politician's aides literally give them a spreadsheet on how many constituents call to oppose/support bills.

This pilot experiment PAID FOR ITSELF. Ireland spent $105 million on artists providing them basic income, and saw that drop to $72 million after accounting for economic impacts, then with $80 million in psychological wellbeing impacts, that dropped to -$8 million.

A comic about CNC kink I've been thinking about for a few years, and I finally decided to sit down and make it.

as silly as Jimmy Kimmel of all people getting some folks to dip their toes into direct action, this is an opportunity we can take advantage of. have some family you want to reach re: censorship online, and you see them responding positively to the kimmel situation? Use this as an opening!

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

Disney made it HARDER to cancel - more steps online They're desperate! Keep the pressure on. Qasim Rashid reviews the manipulative new steps and offers some good advice.

Leave bsky an app store review to tell them how you really feel 🩵 Get that rating to a more honest number

Restricting the expression of sexuality through fiction and art made by adults, for adults – including those you find personally disturbing or offputting – is conservative censorship, full stop. When that censorship disproportionately affects subgroups, that's also discrimination. For shame.

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025 I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves! Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship Silence is compliance!

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout: -submitting a feedback request -@ing moderation about it -commenting on mods posts about it -making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker) -leaving an app store review -just generally posting about it

Time to start sharing and drawing NSFW works! If my NSFW peers can't post here than it's not a space for artists. Fuck #bskycensorship!

How does silence benefit anyone but gatekeepers? Post your porn art every day instead

until we see concrete evidence that bsky’s tiny ass moderation team has the manpower to enforce those new content guidelines, posting CAN and SHOULD continue completely unchanged until proven otherwise, it’s empty words. call their bluff

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵

people can issue consent. things cannot. drawings & sculptures & fictional characters are things. they are property. they are NOT real people. requiring fictional characters to issue consent is an insult to real people w/real problems how does bsky expect to get consent from something like marble?

I'm so tired. Let me know when someone builds the next social media platform competitor that doesn't think it needs to enforce Hayes Code morals on it's user base and I'll sign up.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

HANG IN THERE BABY!! #art

Hey all! I'd like to thank the world's media institutions, and of course the Bluesky mods, for being totally normal and proportional about a barely famous trans woman cracking wise about a Nazi's death.
