New Shaun video, and... it's 4 hours long! We're so back.

We are not guessing about this. There are a metric ton of studies of pilot program and they all show the same thing.

Somewhere, sometime

This is absolutely BRILLIANT They didn't listen to our feedback, now we need to ESCALATE Bsky is at 3.4⭐ - let's see how quick we can tank that! Don't know what to write? Copy/paste mine or use it as a starting point! #SaveSpeech #BskyCensorship

I have to assume this means he keeps everything hidden behind fabric and just thrusts wildly as she runs past.

From D. L. Mayfield:

i challenge you to find cooler news today than “despite all odds against American scientific research rn, a CO researcher developed a temperature-stable, single dose rabies vaccine that works bc of particles coated in CANDY & SAPPHIRE, & it could help reduce rabies deaths in places w/o electricity”

This zoo membership was a great idea ;0; I do wish the Oregon zoo was slightly bigger and better funded. Too many animals showing clear signs of stress, but at least these lil guys were cuddling 💚

I wanted to do something more artistic to relax myself. As you may guess my favorite type of character are the gentle giants. For me massive+kindness(and some dumbness) is the cutest and hotess thing x3. I think I will name him Clements.

i was hoping i wouldn't have to do this, but my car is being totaled after i was rear ended, & ins is dragging their feet on settling. i can't make it to surgery without a car. i've found a used one but need a down payment. i'm so sorry to ask for more help, this was not in the plans at all.

Leave your phone at home if you're going to a protest or doing a civil disobedience.

Happy #Bisibility Day to those who celebrate. 💙💜❤️

They've run the numbers and calculated that they'd lose more from boycotts by regular people mad about Kimmel getting canned than they'll lose from boycotts by MAGA people mad about Kimmel getting uncanned.

It arrived! @revelionart.bsky.social

After assorted delays I've finally secured transport to the Big Charity Shop, so I'm about to ruin their entire day.

Some kind of chatter on the timeline about the Rapture happening today and I'm here like.

Happy Rhino day!

What's the matter babe you've barely touched your event horizon ribs

Political activist here - this is compliance in advance and the opposite of what you should do. Flood the feedback, replies, and CEO/mods BlueSky pages with outrage about the changes. Post loudly about it. Get LOUDER. Silence is compliance.

I’ve shared this before, but it feels important to reshare today:

Today's peeve: trying to get quotes for things where they require you to enter a phone number and then immediately try to call you to follow up the lead.

Also have you even seen the men's toiletries aisle.

Buddy has no idea what's going on. A 'kobold balloonist' commission I did for @dartagnantt.bsky.social

“If you test positive for COVID, one of the simplest interventions you can do… immediately begin taking both a h1 (Claritin, Allegra, Zyrtec) and h2 (Pepcid) antihistimine available over the counter as soon as you test positive” Research backs it, reduces inflammation that causes vascular damage etc

I just think that people should know what they're in for if they sign up

You look at every culture that's ever existed and the running theme is everyone pretty much just wants to play/dance to music, make art, eat stewed meat wrapped in flat bread, and tell stories about the shapes we find in the stars. Somehow we turned that into wars and overtime and profit margins.

Bluesky is a wonderful place that has flourished in large part because of its artists and intolerance towards facists/Nazis. The Updated policy currently going into effect Oct 15 could fuck that up and we should be very vocal about it. Here are some specific things to mention in feedback (THREAD)

"In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits." www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

This shit makes me so mad because people don't understand how much power we have over these companies and the only thing we need to do is not give them money. The only thing we need to do is to not do anything. It's the easiest shit! *wearily* collective action does work, it really does

An antidote to despair and cynicism -- academics studying countries facing autocratic takeovers document that more than half of these episodes lead to "U-turns" and more than 90% result in strengthened democracies. Up to us to make it so! www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Got an open and empty queue, I do legit need a couple comms here to stabilize finances here. Do share around if you can!

I'm escaping, to the ONE place not corrupted by puritanical ideologues *heavy breathing*

Where's the data? You don't take 14k comments without sorting them into qualative data to report on. I literally work a job that helps analyse data sets like this. I want to see the breakdown and percentages of what themes were submitted, otherwise for all we know they went straight in the bin.

I am not meant for DEEP SPACE

I was intending to do a workout and cook dinner this evening but I've been pulling a bunch of hours at the shop this week and also sorting through the garage for junk to throw in a skip, so tonight I invoked my FUCK IT prerogative and ate most of a box of freeze pops while watching Alien: Earth.

Delivery day. Start the clock!

Ok, this is a bit of a fun thing, but let's talk about the historical origins of the names used for the basic DnD classes! These names are so common in fantasy nowadays that people forget where they actually came from. (We are going to ignore more generic words like Fighter, Ranger or Rogue)🔽🧵

WYVERN Update Five new pages wyverncomic.com?pg=30#showCo... Read months ahead on Patreon www.patreon.com/c/Lead__castle
