...is this like the Lego story? Are some of these rare and super valuable?

But I should mention just because I find it interesting, that 100% lab grade ethanol is less effective at killing bacteria (and i think viruses too, idk), because it has a harder time getting into the bacterial cells than the 70%. So in the lab we sterilize with 70% not 100%

Daughter of Robin Williams, Zelda Williams 💔

Robin Williams daughter Zelda is pleading with people to stop creating AI videos of her Dad. I’m pleading with you to stop using generative AI. It’s destructive to the environment. It’s destructive to artists. It’s destructive to humanity. It steals from us and churns out slop. Just stop.

should they? probably not, but that's never stopped them before

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

I hope all you dinguses who are crying for censorship of ~icky fiction~ realize you're on the same side as MAGA here. Let that sink in. Joe fucking Rogan of all people has called your dumb asses out because censorship doesn't stop at just what YOU don't like.

It actually makes me quite sad. Every third post is like "I picked a name for my candle business based on ChatGPT! :) How do I make a candle?"

I am hungry. I do not starve, but it nags. It gnaws. It whines. And I can find nothing to sate it. I am told food is easy to find, as I am shown bowls full of pebbles. But I am flawed and incomplete, unable to enjoy eating stones as others do.

Leave black women the fuck alone. Whatever you feel like black women should be doing, get your ass up and go do it yourself. Fixed it for you 😘

Under censorship, *subtext* is the only way to tell a wlw or mlm story And one of the historical most popular ways to disguise the true nature of the chars' relationship is to make them refere to each other in a "family" way Thus incest and pseudo incest shipping is often decoding the subtext!

Now this is Content

i wil add to this sentiment that the Kimmel thing got me out the door and in community with others. I talked about the importance of unions, especially in *this* moment to folls who aren't currently in a union. Action begets action. Action is good. Momentum and shit

I’m sorry but you can’t say you “💙 the open web” if you’re going to start censoring content you don’t like.

This piece of art violates Bluesky's new TOS

AT THE ENDE OF AN ART FILME MADE BY SHARKES: "FIN"

reading a book about china. apparently the government there has sent federal forces into cities, taken shares of major private enterprises, slapped tariffs on industries, and pressured media outlets to fire people they politically disagreed with. didn’t know this.

I'm locked in. I am going to call every single one of you dumb to your face.

I genuinely cannot understand how "Don't put your name on the protest list, just go to the protest" has become The Discourse. Nobody actually thinks putting their name on this kind of list is this important. They're being pissy for its own sake at this point (and because racism compels them).

Stunning rendition of one of my favorite songs, Bohemian Rhapsody, in isiZulu. youtube.com/watch?v=gblj...

The entire conservative movement is one of immature, selfish people who have, objectively if not subjectively, never really struggled the way the targets of their hatred have. Most have no idea how tiny and safe the safe space they've hid in is, and when they get the barest hint, they're horrified.

The sheer eeriness…it should be a bang barge, and it should slither down the canals of England, arriving with a fog as obscure as stone and bone-chilling cold. A single hooded gondolier pushing it along with a stick should summon young men within with a curling, skeletal finger in deathly silence.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

Important reminder

So many good ones, but this one has a special place in my heart because "It's free and it's crunch," but also I used to be in the Sherlock fandom 🫡

Still I see them everywhere #steddyhands

Do they make pickle flavoured condoms? I’m not sure if I want to know (yes I do)

See, my usual mental image is that my uterus was dragged out in handcuffs (the handcuffs around the fallopian tubes, of course), but this works too! I might need it.

Unexpected crossover AU

When people say "if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear." the correct response is: "I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgement and intentions are."
