they are both stupid and bad at journalism. i’m sure that’s fine.

Cheer up she's not going to be writing stories she's going to be editing them having even more ethical responsibilties.

On September 21 in Tokyo, Rainbow Panda will be hosting an event in English, which I am also taking part in. The gathering will focus on supporting trans children in Asia and exploring art-related activities. I’m excited for the lectures and networking, and I’d love for you to join us!

I just want to scream. Go move to the fucking suburbs already. It’s a city. Zoning should allow things cities have on every block. We have plenty of lifeless lame residential only suburbs for Bob kettle to go live in if he likes that

here’s my YouTube history from a couple days ago lol

the president thinks that he can have me arrested for making fun of him and as a committed bipartisan i accept that this is just his beliefs and call upon him to come to my cell and debate me

Tragic: Bit Mistaken for Engagement Bait

The most desired (and most elusive) fashion item in prison? A good pair of jeans.

I find this extremely chilling: I spoke w a reporter this morning about Kimmel. (Reporter was / is great) They got back to me a short while ago to say they sought White House comment & WH demands to know first which experts they spoke with. I told reporter I'm happy to be quoted IN THE STORY but 1/x

I believe SPREAD ME is eligible for the Long Fiction category here 👀

Government officials do not get to decide that your rights have become inconvenient or problematic. They are your rights. They are not privileges provided by the government and revocable at will.

Fucking cowards. These companies literally have all the tools at their disposal to neuter Trump and make him not a threat, they have the eyes and ears of the public. Instead, because the rich and powerful think they have more to benefit by being "in" with the fascists, they lick the boot.

All removed:

ABC removed staff e-mails after suspending Jimmy Kimmel:

At every level, they’re telling you to take the knee with them for the dead nazi youth leader. Business executives at every practically every national media organization think the median American is a cow that will go to the pasture if given no other choice.

Senate went nuclear and it barely made the news: apnews.com/article/sena...

Fix your hearts or die, Disney

I think there are a decent number of sports knowers on here but it being football season means that prob a lot of them have YouTube TV right now instead, because both the NFL and CFB have a lot of action off Disney properties (Sunday Ticket and Redzone on YTTV, B1G on Fox, etc)

I can tell this site needs more sports knowers because everyone's been yelling about canceling Disney+ and Hulu all day and I literally haven't seen anyone yelling about canceling the new ESPN app, which was just rolled out and the success of which is existential for ESPN.

I don’t think any country in the history of the world has ever done anything as stupidly self destructive as what Trump and RFK jr are doing with vaccines.

pretty yikes of the reds to put the number of a dead gambling pedophile on their uniform imo

This left wing political correctness is getting out of control bsky.app/profile/kiss...

The fascists have assessed that they have nothing to worry about from National Democratic elected politicians. In fact, if they were ever to retake nominal power, many of them will do what they can to destroy their own voters who insist on action against the fascists.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

How I feel about Mike and Covid even as my favorite comedian

petty grievances aside, keeping comedy legal is pretty firmly in the purview of comedian mike birbiglia in a way that public health is not???

yes! congressional control of the purse applies to the white house as well. you can defund stephen miller.

Wanna see a movie about a magical GPS that forces two relationship-averse single people to relive the most traumatic moments in their lives until they fall in love? Why?

It's serious I know. But it's also a clown show

Ok sure. I think this should be the signal to just tell him to pound sand. He makes it sound so ridiculous. It's more nefarious when he doesn't talk about it and it just happens. Now it's a clown show

Civil rights attorneys say that people listed on the “Charlie’s Murderers” website—who were subject to death threats and in some cases lost their jobs—may have a case for defamation

It is very, VERY weird to fixate to the point of compulsion over the private parts of other humans who don’t dwell in your household

okay this presentation on maidr for accessible multimodal data viz is very interesting!!! except for the chatGPT part. not sure that having the LLM potentially incorrectly “summarizing” data is particularly aligned with accessibility

technology used to be cool, but now it’s owned by the worst, most moneysick humans on the planet. but there are transsexual furry hackers out there still fighting the good fight

Teaching is enjoyable and fulfilling, I wish the government wasn't trying to destroy it

sorry i know trans people’s mere existence threatens the basis of the fucked up social order among other things but i still can’t help but want to shout “WHO CARES HOW IS YOUR LIFE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY TRANS PEOPLE VIBING”

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

just saw temu rose the hat on here defending england. i thought it was a bot but it turns out it’s just another type of unfortunate person.

who can I call at the NHS to report this/the hat?

Seattle Children's Hospital is cutting over 500 jobs--500!-- as a result of the GOP's cuts to federal funding! How many kids & families will experience pain, loss, and deaths so that America's business royalty can pay less in taxes? The GOP's attack on our health is violence by the rich.

NY Times still trying to get their wallet back from the inspector

don’t love the people using generative ai images at posit conf. it’s theft! and less importantly it’s ugly. but it wouldn’t be excusable even if it looked good.

In all seriousness: the get-in price for physical media is incredibly low. If you have a game console released after '07, you're all set! In fact, the PS3 was basically the best BR player for a decade and they're now <$50. BRs go for a few bucks at thrift stores. I love 4K, but BRs still look great!

it’s so far from the biggest problem facing us right now but as minnesota’s top VHS influencer [citation needed] i’ll just add that collecting physical media is a great way to not support streaming companies. get out your old DVD player and hit the goodwill bins bbs!!!

they can take my DVDs from my cold dead hands
