I have no confidence in the current head of moderation of this site's ability to fairly moderate this site.

Happy 30th anniversary to the Internet Archive (launched on May 10, 1996). A staggering piece of history and technology that must be preserved.

removing this guy from his position is the single most important errand facing American politics at present. the amount of damage he's doing is almost incalculable.

i think it was fair to say “social media isn’t real life” until like 2019 or 2020, but ever since then real life and social media in most cases are heavily intertwined

people who are gay: yeah i’m gay people who are straight: yeah i’m straight people who are autistic: hey wanna hear about my hollow knight AU

There is no legitimate reason for wanting a right-wing party to exist, let alone be strong. Right-wing ideology is an existential threat to humanity itself, and anyone advocating for its right to exist is inherently suspect.

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

Trevor Project released its annual LGBTQ youth mental health report. The results are shocking. 40% of trans youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year. Trans youth who wanted hormones but couldn’t access them were nearly twice as likely to attempt suicide than those who could.

Kennedy's goal here is consistent with all of his other policies aimed at undermining proven health interventions: he believes the people who benefit from them are defective and he wants them culled from the population. It's comic book villain logic, specifically Viltrumite logic.

it sucks so much that the biggest thing twitter is still undeniably a lot better at than other places, is for finding non-americans. but the site is so designed to constantly leave you pissed off that i really don’t want to go back to engage with things there ever again

Everyone should be nicemaxxing. You should be kindmogging everyone

much respect to everyone looking for a way to permanently uninstall the 4GB LLM file Chrome is force-installing on users, but I have the one trick Google doesn't want you to know that will FOREVER get rid of that stuff: Step 1: stop using chrome oh my god and install Firefox Step 2: vibe

can't recommend watching this vid by @jjbbllkk.bsky.social enough, even if you're not a musician. it's music-focused, but it's about how YouTube traps you into 'watching' instead of 'learning', and so much of this applies to drawing, 3D, or any other creative endeavor www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5xy...

you don't need a study to know this is bad for kids. that's why school admins have zero excuses for signing these deals

This is SUCH a good metaphor for AI. The gold is an illusion that turns to ash and it has a hugely destructive impact on a business.

Science is not truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn't lie to you. It learned more.

Never gave too much thought to Trubbish, but he kinda a cute lil fella.

The Academy has banned AI from ever winning an Oscar. • Only roles “demonstrably performed by humans with their consent” can be nominated for acting Oscars • Screenplays “must be human-authored” to qualify for a nomination

Hey, just wanted to make a post today, as today marks a year of me being homeless. If you could send anything my way or just share this around so I could get my meds, food, and maybe a place to stay in the future, that'd be greatly appreciated, ty... ko-fi.com/merakidays paypal.me/doingitwithm...

Despite creating a billion-dollar franchise - with a new $200M budget Hollywood blockbuster launching in a month - the creator of He-Man's family were unable to afford his dementia and care facility costs, and had to setup a GoFundMe. Mattel gave $5,000.

I will never forgive AI for destroying one of my favorite emoji/symbols the humble sparkle

The only way we ensure the future of the craft that is Making Video Games is by holding the ladder steady instead of pulling it up and telling juniors and hopefuls there's no way in. Even now, THERE IS. It's bad everywhere, therefore, we have to be more supportive to each other than ever.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

i do not think suffering thru violent trauma or oppression naturally generates a compassion & solidarity w/ the oppressed. i think compassion and solidarity with the oppressed always requires active political decisions, because this world instead encourages retreating into misanthropic nationalisms

[ms paint] pokemon champions is all about having a cool knight i think #pokemon #art #fanart

cannot emphasize enough how much normal ppl hate ai. the line cook i sat next to & chatted w on the plane, the college age girl across from me on the train venting loudly to her friend, the nurse in scrubs who nodded at a defaced subway ad w me. everyone is tired of this shit

I wish all independent creators artists and actors a very "please have a supportive fandom that isn't trying to tear you to shreds every other month"

Silksong!

I think the last decade, between the acquisition of twitter, this shit, and the collapse of the US goverment, can be characterized by this reminder that no actually you shouldn't run anything like a renegade who doesn't give a shit and in fact things like empathy and tact are vital for an operation

new bsky image carousel is soooooo perfect app design with zero UX sensibilities or considerations. users universally hate carousels and we’ve known this for over fifteen years of web and app design. they only exist for ungrounded UI designers and their behance portfolio from the 2010s

Happy Earth Day! 🌱

Whether or not the two things are actually correlated, it is incredibly funny that Bluesky started experiencing near daily tech fuck ups right after the team started bragging about using vibe coding

Lmao when a staff member subscribes to a block list made by a troll account and ends up blocking 310,700+ users, all because the majority of the users of bluesky hold the rational opinion that ai is total shit and shouldn't be used for any reason. Ai is ruining the site, and the world. Fuck ai.
