My cream British Shorthair cat Mori sitting on my lap as I scritch one of his ears. One eye is closed in scritchy bliss and his tongue is out in a big blep - he's having a grand old time.

Paused a video appointment earlier to take this ridiculous photo because I was powerless not to

This should be exceedingly obvious, but when Stonewall stays up while references to trans people come down, they will measure the silence of cisgender people as concurrence for whatever they plan next, and it still won't protect you in the end. So please get loud. Our mutual survival depends on it.

The Stonewall Inn and The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative are outraged and appalled by the recent removal of the word 'transgender' from the Stonewall National Monument page on the National Park Service website. This blatant act of erasure not only distorts the truth of our history, but it also dishonors the immense contributions of transgender individuals - especially transgender women of color - who were at the forefront of the Stonewall Riots and the broader fight for LGBTQ+ rights.

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

It has been 194 days since @sagaftra.org actors started striking video games. In that time, we have signed over 150 games to Interim agreements, proving that our demands are more than reasonable. But the bargaining partners still refuse to give us anything more than lip service. (cont'd)

A tiny bunny leaps across pages of an enormous book, as if surfing on waves. The book pages are all fluttering, and we glimpse a few illustrations of a fairy tale in the book the bunny is leaping through.

I spent 18 months working for a company run by someone who believed in moving fast and breaking things. At the end of that time the CEO closed multiple offices, laid off hundreds of people and put an intellectual property that could have gone everywhere and done anything in a vault.

It's the single stupidest, most toxic, most destructive philosophy that isn't any form of fascism. And on it's BEST days its functionally business eugenics.

Want to know what moving fast and breaking things feels like? Ask the tens of thousands of gamedevs laid off in the last two years

The New York Times gambling everything on "If we help this immoral, vindictive psychopath achieve unrestrained power, surely he will have to reward us!" and immediately losing White House access is the funniest example of the fundamental flaw of roko's basilisk playing out in real time

literally describing an Uncle Sam character calling a black man "too ghetto" so he raps "Humble" - a song about hard scrabble growing up eating "syrup sandwiches" because his family didn't have food - and the formation of the american flag is the backs of black men...and then calling it "personal."

just a heads-up: there are a *lot* of spammy "blue wave" accounts being created on Bluesky right now, I can see them blocking my account because I blocked some of the early ones for being obvious follow-farmers. Be mindful if you see rage-baiting generic "trump bad" content from new accounts.

1. Do something outrageous via Executive Order

2. Go to court

3. Court rules that said thing is illegal

4. Ignore court's order (We are here).

5. ?

If you want to know what steps 5, 6, and 7 are, you can read what they wrote down and said publicly that they would do next.

I'm not saying it.

Fox ran a superbowl ad from Kanye for a website that, then and now, is selling only one thing: a white tshirt with a black swastika printed in the middle of the chest.

It hasn’t attracted much coverage or comment at all outside of progressive spaces like this. But it’s nuts.

Two figures walk along a corridor lined with complex machinery. The worker says "Congratulations, sir! The most intelligent machine ever created is ready to change the world. Ten billion dollars well spent... What shall we ask it to do? " The billionaire replies "That's my business, not yours. Close the door on your way out." Now alone with the machine, the billionaire asteps closer and asks quietly "Can you Make people like me?" it says "No"

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.

We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.

ALSO.

USAID:
- started by JFK; helped America win the Cold War
- helped topple apartheid in South Africa
- investigated Starlink for ties to Putin

MUSK:
- owns Starlink
- is a white South African
- talks with Putin regularly, since 2002

THAT is why Musk is attacking USAID - REVENGE
