If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:

Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

Film maker John Waters, sitting in a chair with a quote that reads "Remember, pornographers have always been on our side. Brave, ready to fight for our rights. Smut is your friend."

Call call call. Visa is literally begging us to stop calling and send emails. Calls cost them way more money and they can't use key words to filter them out

After years of tangling with pro-A.I. people I've come to the conclusion they are all soulless sociopaths, devoid of vision or true artistic intent. They offer nothing of value, just like their preferred plagiarism software.

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

Don’t let mainstream news water down the real tragedy that happened here. This was a hate crime, not an argument. The local police didn’t respond to their distress about their home, and now it’s escalated to the murder of Joss and their pet dog

Fuck SAPD. I hope there’s riots in the streets

Bills that ban porn DO NOT get rid of porn. Porn, like abortions, moves underground, and any industry health/safety regulations put in place disappear. Women in sex work suffer, and a purposefully vague definition of what constitutes porn will be used to ban queer literature. This is Christocracy bs

The recent court documents showed that Google's internal testing demonstrated that significantly worse search results would not harm their business operations. This apparent immunity to quality concerns stems from the company's dominant market position, which the recent federal court ruling addressed. "Since Google doesn't have any real competition, it can make the best information hard to find, forcing users to stay on Google for longer and interact with more ads," Papadimitriou said. "This is dangerous for consumers, most of whom think the best results appear first." The strategy appears to be working from a business perspective. The study suggests that poor organic search results actually benefit Google's bottom line in two ways: they make paid advertisements more valuable to users seeking accurate information, and they force users to refine their searches multiple times, exposing them to more advertising in the process.

For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

Fór út að labba með mömmu í gær og það voru svo margir sem voru að grilla, gvuð hvað mér langaði í grillaða lambasneið. 🤤

JKR funded the campaign group behind all this btw. This is why we beg you to stop engaging with Harry Potter media.

I adore their dynamic tbh

Good morning.

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

Spooky month

It’s Possible to Track Someone’s Personal Phone to an Abortion Clinic. And It’s Legal Too. A company got access to a mobile phone-tracking tool used by law enforcement and U.S. government agencies across the country. They found significant privacy vulnerabilities.

They're tracking abortion patients across state lines. This is why I was banging on about digital security when Roe fell.

Basically everyone should be using burner phones when seeking abortion care in abortion hostile states

If you're a creator who:

- Takes long break periods
- Creates very slowly
- Has another full time job or engagement
- Struggles with productivity
- Is inconsistent

I'm sorry to tell you...

YOU'RE STILL A VALID CREATOR BECAUSE CREATING IS TIED TO PASSION, NOT PRODUCTIVITY 💜✨️

Up-to-date BlueSky Crop Aspect Ratio Crop Sizes for Bluesky as of 18 Oct 2024 By default, single images are uncropped. If image is too tall (Exceeds the 1:2 aspect ratio) then it will be cropped. Single images that are too tall may be scaled down but aspect ratio is preserved With two images, both of them share a square aspect ratio of 1:1 For three images, the first image is square (1:1) while the other two are half-squares (2:1) And for 4 images, all of them are 3:2

I came across an outdated guide on image grid sizing crop/proportions for bsky earlier, and I felt it was important to create an updated version! Please use this new guide instead!

if you're new here or returning, please go into your moderation settings and set most of that stuff to "show". stuff like adult/cartoon art is set to hide by default and since it auto-applies tags your art, things like bunny suits can get labeled as suggestive content and hidden by default :/

While we're talking about how everyone should be able to marry the person they love, here's a reminder that disabled people still can't get married legally because they will have their benefits taken away. In many places, they can't even -live- with their partner unmarried without losing benefits.
