I had hopes for @bsky.app but if @jay.bsky.team and her shitstain team are going to collude with genocide, then I’m off this fucking site. Fuck you

Hunter Biden of all people said some true shit and it went viral. People are desperate to see some passion. We're desperate to see fight. My message to Dem leaders and consultants is simple. If Hunter fucking Biden can capture our attention and you can't, maybe that's worth reflecting on.

Alaa Salim, @mamafriend.bsky.social has been a thoughtful and incisive commentator on her situation in Gaza. Suspending an important Palestinian voice that people look to for moral clarity on what is happening to her people weakens this community. #RestoreAlaa @bsky.app @moderation.bsky.app

Wow—the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named after Raphael Lemkin, a Holocaust survivor who coined the term genocide) says plainly: "No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits…IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT." "HISTORY WILL DETERMINE THE RECTITUDE OF YOUR ACTIONS."

not to wade into the discourse but [proceeds to wade into discourse] I don't think that a broad definition of trans people is why we lost Skrmetti, I think we lost because we live in a state whose main lawmaking body is a reactionary unelected council of nine people who decided that fascism is good

counterpoint: we actually should judge that because it is weird and stupid

i swear at god. I got an email advertising this an hour ago. @humblebundle.com a disclaimer saying that the charity was "not involved in the selection of the content in this promotion" and that the content "do[es] not reflect or represent the views and opinions" doesn't absolve you of anything

i love humans and humanity and hate hierarchy and power

The utility of the internet was immediately apparent. Free global communication at a time when long-distance phone calls were charged by the minute and faxes were the only way to send documents quickly? That was adopted at record speed. But "AI" is a solution in search of a problem.

Eventually, every process on your Windows machine will be a WebView2 process and consume 1.5GB of memory

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

Trans people deserve youth. Trans people deserve old age.

stop. treating. it. like. a. person.

IT DID NOT ADMIT ANYTHING. IT IS A COMPUTER PROGRAM THAT CHAINS WORDS TOGETHER WITH A FACSIMILE OF CONTEXT. STOP SAYING THIS SHIT

Please… for the love of god, just stop reading Harry Potter. There are other god damn fantasy series out there, and ones that don’t give money and attention to a person helping to directly harm trans people.

I saw someone getting angrily gestured at in traffic the other day, and instead of flipping them off, the other driver did a 🫶🏻 (they were at a stoplight) Somehow it was even more brutal than the middle finger

this is it, this is the language i have needed to talk about the pronoun thing. that they are willing to admit to what would in any other context shameful ignorance

The Jumbotron would catch me sleeping in my seat You’d think this is one of those joke posts but it literally happened to me at a Celtics game in January

“More than 670 Palestinians have been killed since May near sites built under a new Israel-backed aid system.” and yet people are still demanding US politicians enthusiastically support this regime. fuck that.

imagine if political journalists showed the same solidarity for their illegally imprisoned colleagues that jake tapper showed for fox news when obama tried to move their seat in the briefing room to the second row

Thanks for letting us know, Ted. I’ll pass

Marco Rubio is really one of the most contemptible people in the administration bc he doesn't even seem like a true believer, he's just a power-hungry, unprincipled piece of shit happy to be cruel if cruelty is what gets you proximity to power

"free" in that he's back in the country he was seeking asylum from. It's still very shitty.

Here's my argument about AI that's distilled down about as much as I can: if it was good for me, my boss wouldn't want me to use it so bad.

One of the most bonkers responses to survivors who disclose that they’ve been assaulted is, “Well, he hasn’t done that to me!” Like, okay. Congratulations?

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

they will not stop at trans children. they want all children unable to refuse or escape their abuse
