Notice how people say "Trump" rather than America while rightfully calling out his horrid actions, but people say "Israel" rather than "Netanyahu" to do the same for him? That's the antisemitism talking. Netanyahu is a war criminal, same as Trump. HE should be criticized, not Israel's existence.

"Israel controls our country!" "Zionists control our media!" "AIPAC controls our politicians!" It's funny, y'all use cutesy codenames, but you don't have to change a single other word in order to make it the most classic antisemitic rhetoric imaginable.

Starting drafting a new book is the hardest part of writing. Outlining, no problem. Editing, super fun and relaxing. Middle and end when the characters are well established, sure, let's go. Begining? BEGINING?? HALP? Mind you I have 3 outlines of different amounts of detail & character profiles😅

"Why aren't the Democrats doing anything?!" *continues to completely ignore the midterms*

There is one thing and only thing only I will give Threads over Bluesky: it has a goddamn edit button. 🙃

I need to rant about something this morning. I really am getting irritated by resistance accounts that, while otherwise approaching our problem correctly, keep telling us voting won't matter and the election won't be free and fair. Not only is that not helpful, it's actually harmful...

America had ONE JOB in both 2016 and 2024. It was a failure from top to bottom.

Folks listened, read or watched clips of that speech last night.... and are mad at *checks notes* Dems? I just.... I'm so over it... word to the 92%....

Lookie here! AI data centers account for 0.15-0.2% of US freshwater consumption? Who would have thought?! Oh wait, anyone who actually researched this. For comparison, agriculture is roughly 70-80%. And if you're like "yeah, but people need to eat," golf courses use roughly 5%. Do we need to golf?

From my experiences, the creative AI community has been nothing but warm, friendly, and encouraging. We're all celebrating in our feeling of mutual empowerment of this incredible new form of artistic expression. The hate and hostility in this whole AI dispute is entirely unidirectional. #AIArt

Or, and here me out... other opinions exist.

Be skeptical and fact check your news. Do it when it's news that makes you uncomfortable or scared, and ESPECIALLY do it if it's news that feels vindicating. If you WANT something to be true, you're more likely to believe it, regardless if it's true or not.

There is no one more hateful than those who are convinced they're on a grand moral crusade.

Leftists it is not our duty to remake Qanon.

Many of Disney's best movies are better than SPA's best movies. None of Disney's worst movies are as bad as The Emoji Movie. But I get it, hating Disney is cool.

Good morning to everyone who voted for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz!

We need to be kinder to humans, the animals, and the Earth. It really is that simple.

There is one fix: VOTE. Get some candidates in there who can defeat these politicians, judges etc who serve our rogue government.

American Jews: hey, there’s a lot of antisemitism happening under the cover of pro-Palestine rhetoric and it’s increasingly hard to tell the difference between pro-Palestine people and actual Nazis y’all: you’re just covering for Israel

Must be nice to have a functioning Supreme Court.

Yeah, this is what tends to happen when you hate an entire nation and group of people rather than just denouncing its current government. So much for merely "criticizing" Israel, huh?

What an ignorant post. Here's the refutation. "Democrat Achievements" share.google/uIwir5KftBzZ...

This is one of the most idiotic things I have ever read about politics

The Republicans thank you for your support, as these kinds of posts encouraging voter apathy only help them while hurting the Democrats. But "both sides are the same," am I right?

It's been a year since Captain America: Brave New World released, and I still haven't heard a consistent criticism about it that isn't thinly veiled racism ("Sam Wilson is a better side character!") or simply working backwards from "MCU bad." Bigger box office success than Thunderbolts*, BTW.

Fun Fact: If you think Star Wars sucks now, I promise you that you don't have to see this movie.

I'm usually all about supporting creators and letting artists create however they want. But from a purely personal standpoint? Goddang, I hope this "animating on 2s" trend dies soon. It does something to my brain it does NOT like. I can't support the artistic vision if I can't physically watch it!

There are people on here whose MO is that they are never wrong. They will double down on abusive behavior rather than admit they misread, or misinterpreted, or assumed. They believe they are simply incapable of interpreting something incorrectly, incapable of being abusive. Observed with a sigh.

Happy Sunday my friends! Bright suns! Hope you all have a wonderful beginning to your new week! Stay positive, and know that in this galaxy, you’re never alone. You can accomplish anything. 💙👏🏻💪🏻

"B-but the current government isn't reflective of the people because the whole system is corrupt!" Actually, the current government is perfectly reflective of the people... the people who actually voted, anyway. You want the government to reflect your beliefs? Then fricking vote.

America is Beautiful with Diversity and Inclusion 💙

Caring about the world doesn’t mean mentally living everywhere at once. That’s self-erasure, not solidarity. Burnt-out people don’t build better systems; they just yell louder online and then disappear. It's okay to enjoy your life, drink some coffee, ride a roller coaster, and just live sometimes.

Interesting that Quantumania was about little people coming together to topple fascism.

Terminally Online: (Screaming the most hateful mouth-foaming bile imaginable toward XYZ) Sensible People: Hey, uhh, maybe you should calm down a little and look inward about why you hate XYZ so much? Terminally Online: What, so I'm not allowed to criticize XYZ? So dramatic. Every time. Lol

@matthewdonald64.bsky.social THANKS for bringing up so many good points and sharing posts about-AI, and stuff! Your way of explaining really opens ones eye, even as a AI-person I learned a LOT from the posts you typed; if more people were like you, this planet would look better! Thanks, 🌺Wishes!🌸

This is just an admission that communists would rather see people harmed and have progress lost for moral purity, instead of fighting for progress Then they wonder why Democrats actively distrust them at best

Ah yes, because nothing gets shit done like doing NOTHING. Lol

When I was a kid, I wondered why rocks couldn't be considered money, so everyone could be rich. Then as I grew older I realized how economics works and how it demands scarcity, so I knew better. Then as I got even older and saw how it's all made-up BS, I'm back to "yeah, why CAN'T rocks be money?"

Ahsoka is easily one of my favorite live actions in Star Wars. I can’t wait for Season 2!

I'll never understand how the far leftists think their endless purity politics and isolating themselves from anyone who could be on their side is a sound strategy.

Be careful of left leaning accounts whose viability and visibility depends on Democrats losing and being in the minority. I’ll let that marinate.

Those who insist that voting is useless and both parties are the same, are the first to start screaming "Dems do something!" when GOP get into power and start committing fascism.

God bless you, #DinosaurRide God bless you, #Aladar Like the dinosaurs themselves, it took your extinction for you to get the recognition and popularity you always deserved.

#DinosaurRide at Animal Kingdom is closing today, and it's getting record numbers on its final day, with wait times upwards of four hours! I'm so happy I was able to ride this last year before it closed. This IP is super important to me, and I'm glad its finally getting the flowers it's deserved.

It is incredible how so many people on the far left think the Jews over there are a bigger threat to America than the Republicans over here.

I've been called a genocide apologist for believing Israel has a right to exist and refusing to blame all Israelis (or, worse, all Jewish people everywhere) for Likud's monstrous actions. Fun times.

I think far leftists hate Democrats more than they do Republicans. 🤪
