Please help with pet emergency. We managed to stabilize Okabe and he is back to normal but now we are heavily in debt and need help. gofund.me/4d62b4f7a

me, reading the headline: well, he’s a public figure and actual malice is a hard standard to reach me, reading the article: ohhhhhhh

for those keeping track at home, Harry Potter has now directly contributed to a global transphobia panic, a doomsday AI cult, and now... whatever this "Malfoid" madness is I think that's more than enough data to support a total Harry Potter ban on public (mental) health grounds

you're telling me the guy who tried selling me on a fake computer generated child is being weird about AI? water is wet dude

oh this is gonna get played back in court

Today's Longbox has a man searching for his ex-boyfriend in Greece... and finds vampires on a yacht. youtu.be/y_nJJ3u_Xi4

Setting aside the fact that valuable skill here is creating the concept art and not having the absolute brainchild of "what if girl in graveyard," what this completely ignores is that concept design work shouldn't take 5 minutes. If it takes 5 minutes it's because you don't actually give a fuck.

Fun fact: it takes fewer votes to impeach and remove the president than to override a veto.

The Starlight Children's Foundation is accepting donations on Eric Bauza's behalf, who was fundraising for the charity before he passed. It would be wonderful if you could donate or spread the word donate.starlight.org/fundraiser/7...

Yes, I wanna be in your indie game. Yes, I wanna be in your indie animation. Yes, I wanna be in your indie audio drama. YES! I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU! 💖🐺💖

So hard to pick a favorite part of this article. Pretending that sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 was a “youthful indiscretion” is good, but don’t sleep on the argument that his wife forgave him for subjecting other women to unwanted nude photos so everyone else should too

Listening to a report about Google chopping down a quarter of a million trees in Finland to build a data centre while washing out yoghurt pots for the recycling

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

This is eminently reasonable, extremely well-argued, and essential reading. Erin is correct about all of this, and it is doubly urgent given what we've seen in the UK. 2026 is the time to correct the Dems about this. 2028 may be too late.

Evidence "shows that Trump lied about kicking Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club," according to a new report from the House Judiciary Dem staff. The report also reveals for the first time Beatrice Keul's account of allegedly having been raped by Trump. democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

I've already seen some effort to bury this as "there's not a lot new here." As if, "What's one more rape victim?" is sound editorial judgment. Republicans kept the Benghazi story going for years on nothing new, but that didn't stop to press from covering every nothing burger they served up.

Also, forgot to post about this earlier, but happy birthday to Atop the Fourth Wall! It's been going for 18 years now and I have no plans to stop it. Enjoy the Clone Saga reviews from years past! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I can't stress enough how counterproductive it is for campaign sites to hit visitors with a donation pop-up they have to close before they can see anything. A week out, most visits to these pages are voters trying to make up their minds.

Lula won in part by banning online gambling

People staying on X 'because of the news you can't get here' The news on X:

it feels truly insane that it’s not

Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

The internet can be pretty gullible about tech products, but congrats to everyone who called exactly what this was going to be used for from the first moment they saw it.

Why would Cornel West, a man who serves on the board of a far right education group with Christopher Rufo, do this?

It's that special time of year when they give the danger-kitties pumpkins to play with at The Wildcat Sanctuary in Sandstone, Minnesota. A much-needed timeline cleanse. 🐯🎃 (📷: wildcatsanctuary.org)

Me: I don't see any reason to use AI Slop peddlers: You know how you want to sell books but you hate writing? Me: No, I love writing. The only reason I care about selling books is so I can afford to write instead of getting a real job Slop peddlers: Oh. Well... You know how you hate your kids?

i wonder if these two things are connected.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.

This isn't hyperbole or a joke. Parents actually called the cops and got the black boy and his family removed and the league claimed they were trespassing because he was "putting on a show" and wasn't playing "fair."

The Guardian: "Gaza's suffering has become campaign fodder. Palestinians fear the worst from Israel election." As politicians and pundits talk and talk, the displaced Gazans struggle with famine and constant attacks. They rely on donations. Please give to my dear friend. No amount is too small. 🙏

"Trans people are a tiny group with no power" This isn't true, and I hope my trans readers can internalize this. You are more powerful than you think. Trans and gender expansive people are 2.34% of the US population in the latest survey. That is more than enough to swing a race.
