YOU MUST SATE YOUR THIRST TO HAVE STRENGTH TO GRIND YOUR ENEMIES' BONES TO DUST.

Something that shouldn't need to be observed but apparently does is that the images and videos of Andrew Tate being put into handcuffs has instantly made being associated with him more scandalous for politicians even though the facts of the case haven't changed and he hasn't been convicted.

This goes out to everyone in the US, but especially looking at our politicians

Recently a friend saw her own painting come up as an example of a lighting technique on ChatGPT. When asked who created the painting, chatGPT suggested Edgar Payne, an already deceased male artist, erasing my friend, a woman, as the creator.

Yes, talk to Murderbot about its feelings. The idea was so painful I dropped to 97 percent efficiency.

race as a concept is misogynistic, classist, and Hibernophobic.

Could Excel be conscious? We surveyed more than Jan 1 1900 people to find out.

KIM KITSURAGI - Never fuck with Kim Kitsuragi.

Two people tried to enter a screening of The Odyssey without buying tickets after hiding inside a miniature model of the Trojan Horse. 😂😂😂

Reps. Pramila Jayapal, Chris Deluzio, and Pat Ryan have introduced a bill to break up meat monopolies. Good. Right now, 4 meat processing corporations control 80% of the market, allowing them to squeeze customers and farmers alike. Minimal competition means maximal price gouging.

A few weeks ago I saw some comment on a video about DMing saying "Ugh, it is NOT the DM's job to make sure the players are having fun" And, like, then what IS their job dude? That guy's games must suck lol

Let's never forget that most of the victims who have come forward in the #Epstein case are women. These predators come in all shapes & forms, but the most high profile, like Epstein & Tate, have preyed on women. Don't scapegoat queer people. That's what the fascists want.

If they can build a data center overnight, then they can install a solar farm overnight.

So...a funny thing happened today.😇 I wanted to get a new cat when we got home from vacation...Today, my in-laws had a family cookout at a campgrounds. Someone had abandoned a kitten at the campgrounds... Meet Charlie, our new baby. (Vaggi would've been fitting, but my husband would never🤣)

I care about protecting kids. ACTUALLY protecting them, from the things that actually threaten them. a total lack of bodily autonomy leads to physical and sexual abuse of children. which is, I don't know if you've noticed, apparently fucking rampant. which is why epstein et al manufactured this bs

The great irony behind people getting angry over people of color in ‘White’ roles is that the last 100 years of cinema was essentially White actors outright stealing and appropriating roles intended for people of color.

Made a little self care sheet for my husband of his little slime-sona. 🥰 I figure it might be helpful for others too.

Me reading romance novels: A hot duke with a six pack? Fine. A team of hot and morally justified FBI agents who are all gay? Absolutely. A publisher who looks after their authors--oh fuck off with that nonsense!

Soon these robots will have more rights than children. At least they won't die from school shootings, have to deal with the bathroom police, or be banned from participating in certain activities

genuine social media tip: you should be blocking people. like, often. and I don't mean blocklists, I mean manually doing so. your attention is a privilege and if someone you don't know hits you with negativity or creepiness you can and should punish that and deny access to yourself.

Please leave a comment on the Arc's comment portal to help get rid of the added medicaid requirements that will most definitely cause people to LOSE COVERAGE and will mess with our welfare, even caregivers and people who do work. please HOLD THEM TO THIS BE DIRECT act.thearc.org/campaign/164...

I can't breathe the air, I can't eat lettuce, I can't afford gas, and my kids have measles. But at least now our soldiers will have enough testosterone.

Doctors say that cyclospora can cause explosive diarrhea. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and brings raccoon penises home for "further study" says that cyclospora cures autism. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Opposing data centers feels like one of the few things that the majority of people will actually agree on, yet so many politicians are eager to have them built in their backyards. I'm going to assume that they're being bribed.

Yeah no shit most Americans want to cut aid to Israel. Their military keeps fucking murdering children. Everyday there’s a different video of their soldiers committing warcrimes and we’re giving them UNCONDITIONAL aid. That’s fucking crazy.

At this point, JK Rowling has spent more time and energy writing about how much she hates a vulnerable part of the human condition that never did one goddamned fucking thing to harm her than she ever did writing Harry Potter.

Games Not (Only) By Cis-Dudes 🧵 (list in progress I keep on my phone & pasting here) * Apocalypse World * For the queen * The quiet year * Yazeba’s bed and breakfast * Seven part pact * Kagematsu & A single man * Tales of the Fisherman’s Wife * Steal Away Jordan * A Mending * Field guide to memory

I think human rights should be in effect regardless of what state anyone lives in, but I’m just the descendant of enslaved people, so it’s not like I have any history with this idea

Reminder that Anne Frank most likely died from a typhus outbreak that tore through Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. The Nazis still killed her. It’s no different now. The deaths of people who die in Trump’s camps from disease/malnutrition are as murdered by the state as those gunned down by ICE.

we will eventually have to reckon with the fact that all it takes for people to decide a human life is worthless is that they took pills that cops don't think they ought to have

The longer it takes for you to move to a healthier site, the longer it'll take to regrow whatever platform you built. Moving sites will never have a 100% retention rate, and even with an existing audience, it'll take time to find your footing again, but it'll take less time than the first.

The Luddites loved technology. They owned looms at home and would ‘mod’ them to count threads. Their battle was against worker exploitation. The degradation of their rights, safety and wages. They were against a handful of rich businessmen owning the means of production. Sound familiar?

Bought a commission today and the artist told me that I’d basically just paid their bills for the week so always remember that having artists draw porn of your favorite characters is a noble cause

No science fiction could have prepared us for just how stupid the end of the world can be. "The environment was on the brink of collapse, and so, rather than deal with that, we burned what fuel we had left getting computers to scam each other for money."

I did a tonne of research so you don't have to. I talk about masking, air filtration, and air quality rating systems, & I give concrete suggestions to help you keep yourself and your loved ones safe. If you don't have this information yet, it's time to get educated. Wildfires don't respect borders.

this is so real (especially when i run out of my meds)

Plato’s cave discourse where you haven’t even seen the original post/s but are getting mad based off the angry responses to it. Is it a thing lots of people are saying, or was it simply one stupid dipshit nobody likes or that has like ten followers and you’d never have interacted with otherwise?

Lindsey Graham isn't alive to see your posts celebrating his death but the other sycophantic homophobic war hawks you know will. Think about how this will affect them before you post and then post it anyway.
