Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license. They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

we finally reached the end of this calendar event i accidentally made 12 years ago

1. Numerous transgender people in Kansas are reporting that the state has sent them a letter demanding the immediate surrender of drivers licenses. Those driving could be arrested, charged, and see privileges revoked. Subscribe to support our journalism. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

Tapping the sign

gavin newsom thinks this isn't a problem

the fact that discord makes so many basic features nitro exclusive (like tons of profile customization options, using custom emotes, file size cap, etc) is crazy

Even if incest kinks aren’t your thing and even if you find it disgusting or weird, this is dangerous. They’ve come after strangulation and seem to be coming for more. This isn’t about “safety” it’s about controlling online anonymity and further shaming sexuality. Wishing my friends in the UK luck ❤️

All those Discord alternatives that y'all are trying to push (Stoat, Matrix, Fluxer, Root, etc.) will have to comply with this as well if we don't stop this. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES EVERY DAY & TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON KOSA, SCREEN Act, & ANY OTHER INTERNET CENSORSHIP BILLS!

while it is a relief to see Discord is no longer partnering with Persona and the age verification rollout has been delayed, that fact they still plan to go through with it is not great. Age verification doesn't ever reduce harm to children, just makes it easier to track people online.

Bully them harder actually

Don't worry guys Patreon has assured me that it's actually awesome that they use Persona

I know this is like, “eww squick” it wouldn’t hurt me, but this basically bans the first episode of Game of Thrones, a significant amount of Greek mythology, and every open fanfiction website on the planet. And I wouldn’t trust an authoritarian govt with “nuance” about what is art and what is porn.

you should keep drying up their user revenue source in the middle of trying to take the company public

Keep nitro canceled. Any of my friends or moots or followers that still have their nitro active, I'm giving you the stink eye

It's literally the "we are still doing it but now we would like you to be less mad about it." post. After 3 backdowns that didn't even back down they pull out another BIG puppy eyed SUPER sorry backdown that ALSO doesn't back down. No. You've fuckied your last wucky, UwU. bsky.app/profile/teal...

We perversely had a system during the pandemic where it was effectively illegal to show footage of someone dying of Covid but legal to upload a video of yourself faking vaccine side effects. Antivaxers exploited this warped information environment

I remember when i was pretty new to smoking weed i took a hefty bong rip and we went to watch the Behind the Scenes Production for Bambi with friends. And 5 minutes in I was so mad i had to leave the room because everything sounded like this video

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

is everyone ready for the eternal panopticon

Whenever I see an article about the AI bubble bursting or Trump’s signs of failing health:

The power of artificial intelligence is changing the world

Gooseworx is one of the most brilliant, hilarious, and creative people alive, who I'm lucky to call a friend. Her work and talent have inspired so many people, and I owe her so much. I'm furious at how media illiterate psychos have treated her, just for trying to create the show that she wants to.

"The Jews created pornography to undermine the family" is quite literally the fourteenth of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Not great to see left-wing accounts with 700,000 followers saying this sort of thing.

DO NOT. I repeat, DO NOT give your personal ID to these sites because they're trying to push mass surveillance on every website and this really will be the death of the internet. NEVER. GIVE. THEM. YOUR. PERSONAL. ID.

“ why doesn’t toby fox interact with us :( “ typa situation gooseworx ends up in because she talked about eating a chicken sandwich last thursday

Upvote this.

Twitch is requiring new Affiliates, before their first payment, to give government photo ID and a separate photo to Persona, the same Persona that has connections to government mass surveillance programs. When I asked Twitch support for another option, they said there isn't one. #twitch #persona 1/4

This is fair. I mainly take issue with how theory culture overcomplicates and misses the point of media. Too often it focuses too hard on piecing together a puzzle, rather than the appreciating whole picture and what it's saying; the "no meaning, only lore" idea that killed Twin Peaks for 25 years.

I should change my number

This is also why I hate mystery box stories. We don't get mad because expectations are "subverted". We get mad because mystery box stories are made to create speculation first, without an answer that was deliberately built up to. They're like train tracks that lead off a cliff, without a bridge.

i'm gonna go die in the woods! !!

Theories and "expectations" have had a nasty impact on culture. They just set people up to get mad when the story the artist tells doesn't line up with whatever people imagined based off "patterns" that don't really mean anything. Wait for the end, enjoy the ride, and let a story be what it is.

From fans to you, thank you Goose for being the humorous and inspirational person you are. #LOVEFORGOOSEWORX #tadc

Israel has been dumping herbicides throughout southern Lebanon as part of a concerted ecocide campaign to render the region uninhabitable. This has been going on for months with Lebanese journalists & environmentalists regularly reporting on it. The BBC: we don’t know why the Israelis are doing it

This doesn't seem worth having a Discord account

Crazy shit happening at xbox rn

Here’s the thing and I’m gonna tell you: a lot of fans are why so many creators just don’t want to create anymore. And so many of them are oddly proud of their ability to bully. In order for cartoons as a concept to survive, they need to knock that shit off.
