I don’t really understand what the point of decades of technological advancements are if we’re all still working more than ever

If capitalism was so great the US wouldn’t need to destroy any country that tries socialism. There wouldn’t need to be decades of propaganda by the richest in the world demonising any other economic principals. Fuck capitalism before it finishes us off.

Was texting a friend and then the next photo was his legs in a hospital and he was like “hey sorry got hit by a Car, hit and run” to the group chat and I’m glad he’s ok but damn we gotta do something about cars in this country.

The driver that doored Riley didn’t have car insurance, was driving on a suspended license, was parked in a no-parking zone, and opened his door in Riley’s path without looking. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/06/06/b...

Happy Pride Month

I'm sure the legislature will promise some sort of 'entertainment district' around the Indiana Bears stadium, so let's check in on how the Stadium Village around the taxpayer-funded Colts arena is going after 20 years

Kampf’s paintings often feature muscular nude men posed with extraordinary care and attention, transforming anatomy into a vehicle for strength, heroism, and visual beauty. Today, some viewers see homoerotic qualities in these works, particularly in the way Kampf lingers on the male form. #gay #art

What makes Moncrief’s work especially valuable from a gay art-history perspective is that it is unmistakably homoerotic without becoming explicit. The eroticism comes from touch, body language, proximity, and emotional connection rather than overt sexual activity. #lgbtq #art #nude #male #men #gay

PRIDE 2026 "Through Pain & Joy"

PRIDE 2026: "The Family Nuclear" Multiple states this year have decided to show their distain for ALL loving families and declare this month "Nuclear Family Month". To nuke the warm embrace of ALL families only shows the petty spitefulness of these elected bigots. Another reason to celebrate PRIDE.

Thanks to the Indy Star for publishing my op-ed this morning. "It ain't me, it ain't me ... I ain't no Senator's son!"

This is incredibly powerful from @fruitypy.bsky.social, calling on the government to legislate to protect trans people’s rights, privacy and inclusion:

the entire paxton campaign is just gonna be republicans calling talarico gay over and over then offering coy denials when called on it and accusing the libs of being to sensitive when they call it out bsky.app/profile/came...

Some thoughts on the "vibecession", just from my personal vantage point. 🧵

There’s a whole industry of people who passed through Opus Dei / conservative organizations and end up “discovering” that porn is bad, or contraception was getting in the way of their marriage, or feminism is actually subtly bad for women, or that celibacy is the most enriching way to be gay.

I just saw an ad for OpenAI with the tag line, "You can just make things" Yes. You can. Without AI.

The Green Book was a vital guide for African Americans driving through Jim Crow–era America. It listed places where Black travelers could expect safe treatment. Los Angeles had over 224 listed places throughout the publication's 31-year run. But only 56 of these sites remain.

May 20 is World Bee Day. 🧪🐡🐝 There are ~20,000 different bee species in the world. Here in Ontario we have at least 400 native bees (none of which are the honeybees, which are from Europe). Bees are key to pollination. According to the UN nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend

terrible. 20 years ago, the internet was full of hobbyist blogs and forums. over time, these have been replaced by paywalled substacks and private discord channels, each a walled garden. google's decision to prioritize AI just makes it less likely people will create free, public info

This proves how craven most politicians are when choosing between sincerity and self-preservation.

Right wing Christianity proves every day that hypocritical perverts make the very *best* scolds.

We won't have the opportunity to begin to heal as a country until it's broadly understood that a Christian Nationalist coup occurred

Here you go Mike..

They are Christians. You don't get to "no true Scotsman". It is important for the health of the nation we stop equating good person and Christian.

Bruh, Christians never shut the fuck up, and we're all paying the fucking price.

The Cost of Billionaires as everyone is finding out is everything. There will be nothing for you because it's getting in the way of them being Trillionaires. You must ask if there's 'no money' why don't we take it from the 3500 people with $20,000,000,000,000.00

Rodríguez studied Fine Arts and traditional anatomy, but he became far more interested in anatomy through drawing erotic male imagery than through academic exercises. He describes his ideal male subjects as boys who look beautiful, careless, and slightly dangerous. #gay #art #nude #nudist #male #men

Sans titre, 1981 - Robert Mapplethorpe (1946–1989), photographe américain célèbre pour ses portraits et nus en noir et blanc, à l’esthétique classique et souvent provocatrice, explorant sexualité, corps et identité. #photographie #numasculin #RobertMapplethorpe

I graduated from Texas Tech. While there, I wrote papers on Robert Mapplethorpe, and queerness in the Evangelical church. I created World AIDS day programming for the campus radio station. Like the hockey coach says on LETTERKENNY: fucking embarrassing. www.erininthemorning.com/p/texas-tech...

Now that’s contrapposto !

Intel gave its birthright to shareholders in the form of stock buybacks. We lost the chip industry because TSMC actually invests in R&D.

The physician who has been put in charge of the Hantavirus outbreak in the United States has no public health experience but does have a YouTube show called Erection Connection so everyone can calm down things will be fine

still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

Berlin does not view his homoerotic work as pornography, but as an expression of intimacy, beauty, and emotional connection. He often uses real couples as his models, bringing an authentic sense of affection and tenderness to his depictions of gay male love & desire. #art #lgbtq #gay #nude #male
