this is an ad pushed by google on the platform it bought out, youtube this is a deliberate, targeted attack on academia by one of the most powerful corporations in the world, and as a student, i would literally rather kill myself than sign up for this

it is fully moral for any trans person who does not want to out themselves and face associated risks with the ranked playoffs "media day" (or anyone who doesn't want their voice to be known for that matter) to use a really good, undetectable voice changer

going on twitter now is like the dark world part of link to the past, where the shape of things is roughly the same only now instead of the friendly villagers there's some demihuman freak snarling at you going "welcome to the village of assholes!! we hate you!!" also the trees shoot bombs now

Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

there is no escape

the fact that there's a potential reality, where immigrants and trans people and people from the right's other outgroups who speedrun minecraft may have less functional preemptive nav on average, because it actively endangers them more to use nvidia gpus instead of amd, is like what do you even say

That thing where your paper gets bought out by a hedge fund famous for destroying newsrooms and all the real journalists leave and you are so terrified of having to pay what you owe in taxes so that society can exist you endorse a serial sexual harasser.

"ssg has no variability"

@groundnews.bsky.social So, guys, I gotta ask... Is it policy to now list mass shootings under your "transgender" tag? Because if it is, I'm going to have to discuss this.

have a spine mark jesus fucking christ i hate him so much

this is the biggest choke of my speedrunning career by far i don't even have a 1.8 ssg completion yet this would have been 4th overall and i would have been the 4th person ever to sub 3 if i just didn't jump on the end stone on the first crystal i probably would have gotten it 😓 youtu.be/CvGJBxv8qF0

all of life is screens, and all the screens are now haunted, and somehow we've got to somehow keep a society going on this set of facts.

o7 to 1.7's claim to fame and some of the 1.7 versions ended up being snapshots for some weird reason so they skipped some numbers, 1.7 is cheating and still losing 😭 what happens first, 1.22 or the heat death of the universe

connoreatspants making a really good defense of trans people while streaming fornite on twitch with gavin newsom was not something i expected in 2025

Dear CEO, there's an active subset of Bluesky that routinely harasses trans and queer folk, even doxxing them. This person in particular is a huge problem and even was cited in federal documents harming trans folks. What are you doing to address this? "lol, are u a sad PEPE! Le epic meme, right?!?"

yeah, being harassed sucks.

someone please check on every government website because the banners are killing me HUD:

Their tough guy act sure seems to disappear anytime the rest of us stick together and tell them to get fucked.

Tylenol causes autism. Pepto Bismol causes trains to be late. Asparin causes birds to fly upside down, screaming the Lord's Prayer in reverse. Off Brand Chemists Cough Syrup makes fire fall from a sky of boiling blood, where the seas quiver with tangled limbs of the souls clawing for lost salvation.

They're selling out the millions upon millions of Americans who have rightfully objected to everything Kirk stood for, and the many who have been suffering terrible professional and social consequences for refusing to honor a bigot. Pathetic cowardice

"it's too much liquid" going into the baby, instantly up there with the injecting bleach moment.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa everything is so fucked

this announcement is worse than i even could have imagined

ARE YOU KIDDING ME THAT'S THE ANNOUNCEMENT??? source: we made it up because we want to throw red meat to bigots again and have to pretend we have a clue what we're doing in the process like you really can't parody reality anymore tylenol is gonna be used for eugenicist purposes

i want to fedpost sooooooooooooooooo fucking badly right now

Do not mock Supreme Leader Trump. Supreme Leader Trump sensitive snowflake. Supreme Leader Trump must be worshipped, revered and shown proper respect. We will come after you. Thank you for your attention to this matter. - Regime of the Golden Age & Delicate Flowers

One of the natural consequences of blurring the line between state censorship and “cancel culture” was making it easier to engage in state censorship. I leave it to your imagination whether the people who did that intended that result or were merely recklessly indifferent to it.

part of me wants to hope that the fascists are overplaying their hand here by using the government to do cancel culture and people will see how repulsive they are but idk if it matters, you can still do fascism with support from a tiny portion of the population if the rest doesn't do much about it

“Comedy* is legal again.” *Racism, xenophobia, ableism, transphobia, and punching down as if it is clever or funny at all.

the more i see of the right immediately dropping everything it has ever cared about in its mass hysteria, the more i want to say "i am glad that charlie kirk got killed" which isn't my sincere opinion, i'm quite indifferent to his death in itself but they're making me want to take that position

i feel so bad for luna twiggs :( the text messages released should in theory show she had nothing to do with any of this but idk if that matters anymore in a world where politics is dominated by people hallucinating whatever they want the narrative to be and the way she's being talked about is cruel

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

The last 48 hours have shown why people have stopped relying on legacy journalism and have migrated to independent journalists in droves. The benefit of legacy journalism is supposed to be “editors” and “factchecking” and they can’t even get that right in a rush to blame trans people.

I recommend everyone watches this

we are now at the point of ‪"someone who was possibly trans being in the vicinity of something i don't like means they must have been responsible for it" like i don't know how we are supposed to exist alongside and engage with this alternate reality that dominates politics

Sound familiar? The Reichstag fire was set by Hitler's goons, blamed it on communists and took absolute control shortly thereafter killing and jailing thousands of "regime enemies." Stephen Miller and Trump's recent pronouncements are basically admissions as to their fascist plans. #CharlieKirk

Honestly disgusting how this nazi freak is being lionized.

i probably should check out from the news and this devolved excuse for discourse, i feel like i'm on the edge of a psychotic break or something but i feel like gonna check back in in a few days and it'll be like "donald trump announces extermination camps for leftists and is now invading canada"

i hate fascists i hate them i despise everything about them and their existence they are less than dirt

This is morally repulsive, and actually more laudatory of violence.

I wish for a day when American media has as much sympathy for the people Kirk wanted excised from society as they do for him.

Amazing how those democratic lawmakers who were hunted down in their homes in the middle of the night in Minnesota weren’t a watershed moment of political violence, huh?

Christ. Fuck this. I don't want to honor Charlie Kirk memory. And actively dishonor that nazi's memory with every second that I am alive longer then he is, happy & joyous as myself - not as a bigot spouting conformity & advocating death. Fuck you Newsom - I really just can't stand this centrist BS.

So its not violence to spend your entire life advocating for shootings, violence against marginalized people, several genocides & covid denial, but it is violence to say "haha a nazi died"...good to know safety's well thought out definitely not heinous stance. Always question who defines "violence"

the 2025 twitter experience tw: literally everything

rightwing media ecosystem operates by stoking hatred and anger and divisions every single day, they want people to constantly be afraid and want people to hate eachother, everything we are seeing is a result of the destablization the right has profited off of
