A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things. Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years. Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US. Shareholders are demanding they settle. Keep boycotting.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Another quick Takizawa, she's just sooo cute

Apparently today is World Hypnosis day! As someone who's done #hypnosis in some of my peril art and stories, I've done my fair share of different methods of entrancement. Here's just some examples from 2025. #nsfwart #digitalart

Caught between a rock and a hard place 🐉

Really!? On this first day of the year?

rapier update.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

Same issue

I reached out to the author of this viral Reddit post thinking there might be a story in it. He sent me an employee badge that Gemini flagged as being AI-generated and supporting documents that I suspect were also generated by AI. Be careful out there folks! www.reddit.com/r/confession...

old classic

You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty

Evergreen.

one thing about congress that's become very blatant in my life is that they actually kinda enjoy the executive bypassing them all the time to do military shit. this way, their fingerprints don't have to be on any of it. preferring a lack of responsibilities and accountability to their own power.

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

The whole of Andor feels now like a commentary on current times (because the writers studied authoritative regimes - and revolutions - through time).

Elon Musk's accomplishments over the last year include starving thousands of people to death (and laughing about it) and creating Hitler AI that undresses children (and laughing about it). Is it time to do something about billionaires yet?

the only thing more frustrating than realizing all the 90s linux guys were right is the knowledge that they realize it too.

"No, 'cause I'm gonna eat him." (Giovanna // Guilty Gear)

"Mamdani has been in office almost an entire day yet poverty still exists - Is this the final nail in the democratic socialist experiment? We asked several billionaires and landlords their thoughts." - New York Times

If you're a socialist who's poor, you'll be attacked for being unable to make it in the job market. If you're a socialist who's successful, then you'll be attacked for being fake. None of this is ever in good faith.

this is such an important thing to recognize and call out the fascism is mostly done being nice at this point, but it got here through well dressed men politely asking questions while the rest of us were scolded for pointing out where those questions led

New polycule just dropped

Honestly this. And this is the step where pro capitalist propaganda kicks in for most people "Socialists/communists/leftists don't want anyone to be rich" Nah fam. I don't care if people are rich. I just don't want anyone to be in poverty tfym

New leshen for the New Year ~

Cheerful moments together

I called this “The Orville Peck Principle.“ I did not get on the Internet one day explicitly looking for a masked queer cowboy to start crooning at me, but guess what? It was exactly what I fucking needed.

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

Btw, if you’re thinking “this should be illegal.” “How isn’t this illegal?” It is.

new year new me

Let's toast to the New Year~ 🍾

my 2025 year in review

Over 80% of the wealth on earth is concentrated at the Eden rock hotel in st Bartholomew as billionaires and their pet celebrities congregate for a superyacht NYE festival. It’s not far off from Epstein island either. Etsy witches i call upon thee to do the funniest thing

whatever happens to these fascists it will be better than they deserve

happy new year

your muscles have been super stiff lately. maybe you should get your ass to yoga class

Many of you are psyching yourself up to start that dream project in 2026. AWESOME Just keep in mind that devoting your free time to achieving your dreams is not the same as Hustle Culture. Keep your mind on you and your art and don't fall into the trap of thinking every minute should be monetized.
