A cycling influencer nominated for a list of top 100 women cyclists said she has declined the honour due to the decision not to include trans women. Claire Sharpe, a cycling coach from Bristol, said: "If they don't want to ride with all women, then it's not the kind of ride I want to be part of" 👏🏻

I cannot stress enough that your calls — and your social media posts — on this issue DO matter and WILL impact things long-term But you have to call

I really do unironically feel like this all the time

America's first ever esports champion was Rebecca Heineman, a trans woman. She went on to found some of your favorite video game studios and worked on your favorite video games. Next time you see somebody rail about 'woke' and 'DEI' Remember that. Remember her.

The "Frieren angle" thing, apart from just being delightful, also completely demolishes the pathetic "AI is democratising art" argument. Someone struggling with a difficult drawing received advice from hundreds of strangers who just wanted to help them improve their art.

Twitter disabled Hebrew machine translation because they didn't want people to easily see how horribly genocidal israeli posts are.

The reason why I never take pictures of myself or rly anything is because I’m SO bad at it! Look at this cryptid. And it’s by far the best shot I got, the rest is worse lmao This is our orange menace Gavril

i made corbeau's horse steal his glasses bc wym my switch broke right as i was about to fight him #art #pokemon #plza

"Get his ass” Is so unreasonably funny to me. A huge win for the English language. Today's version of "seize him" imo

When drawing goes well: wow I love drawing I’m so good at drawing this is so fun I wanna do this for the rest of my life When drawing goes bad: what if I just killed myself

Also yes I would absolutely stop playing new video games altogether if they end up serving only slop. People really think you would die losing ONE hobby lol I have so many hobbies dude

"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it" My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

You know how falin from dungeon meshi has like permanent rosy cheeks? That’s the vibe I wanted. Inadvertently it’s probably also why I slapped this sort of ashy blonde hair color on her. Probably gonna go more brown or gray in the next iteration to steer away from too much falin-ness

Anyway. This is what I got so far. Not a final design by any means! Even in this she has two different eye colors lol #amanitapillsart #OC #ocsky

I admire artists that can make things look right without understanding how they work cause I’ve been looking at pictures of armor for hours now trying to understand how it fits together and fastens to the body but I still don’t get it fully and it makes my drawings look weird

Wer Leute dazu zwingen möchte, für €1,20 pro Stunde zu arbeiten, ist kein guter Mensch und sollte keine politische Verantwortung tragen dürfen. Solche sklavenartigen Ausbeutungsverhältnisse sind nur eines: Ein klares Zeichen, dass wir systematisch etwas ändern müssen. Leben in Würde für alle!

"one day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this"

your dead AI mother loves you so much ❤️

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Actually, nevermind. You will now be pirated, off a keytrader, or used; and you shall never be publicly praised again, my Professor Moriarty of a company.

"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

THEN YOU PURCHASE THEM AND DO NOT USE THE PROPERTY OF OTHERS

SORRY FOR THE REPOSTS I made some unintentionally hateful typos lmao

There are a couple digimon I came to love over the years and this one is among them but I always maintained that Antylamon was my FAVORITE tho. But since time stranger ExTyrannomon might have ursurped the big bunny and it's entirely because I fucking love HOW YOU RIDE ON IT.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

This thread provides actual knowledge for things that I had a vague gut feeling about -- and many things that never would have occurred to me -- about the more affordable Japanese PS5. But Japanese Gen Z playing 3DS more than PS5 illustrates how much of an uphill battle *Sony* faces at home.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

love that my country will now force young boys to go to the military and fight for a country that has never done a damn thing for them. I just feel so awful for these kids. First, they lose a good chunk of their childhood to covid, and now they have to fear being forced to do military service.

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being. Check the site! fightchatcontrol.eu

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

In the very rare chance that anyone actually does manage to bully Musk into ending things, Joyce Carrol Oates doing it would be objectively the funniest vessel for it.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

People are so entitled I swear to god

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

me when the AI bubble bursts

i know he thinks he's slick

"the fundamental weakness of feminist analysis is it's failure to acknowledge that men Simply Need to be the de facto masters" okay. i guess if men simply cannot for some mystical essential reason be separated from their rulership status, then they must be abolished as a class.

Reminder to check blocklists and the person curating the list before hitting the "block all" button. I usually just manually block instead of following the whole list itself! Block lists are very useful but they can also be easily exploited. Use them with caution.

This is an entirely uncontroversial view in international law and usually taught in 101.

the way digimon merch is hard to find and often really expensive bothers me Digimon is fairly popular over here I will have you know! This is unfair!!!
