the answer to the trolley problem is not to pick who to sacrifice, it’s to dismantle the system that led to an unsafe trolley crossing.

if any part of your morality strategy involves picking a group to let die on a hill, throw the entire strategy out. it’s wrong.

Reminder that even now, Reporters Without Borders is maintaining the Minecraft Uncensored Library online. To get to the library:

Download Minecraft (or you can create a pack in Curseforge if you're using that).

Make sure you're using Minecraft 1.16.5

If having a felony conviction on your record doesn’t disqualify someone from being the President, it shouldn’t disqualify someone from voting.

People with felony convictions should be able to vote.

Just a periodic reminder that it's a good idea to bookmark your favorite artists' sites, sign up for their newsletters, and follow them everywhere you can. (My links are in my profile & pinned post!). Because of the current climate of censorship you never know where we'll get kicked off of next.

I want to protect NSFW artists (emphasis on "art"), but if it becomes legally dangerous to do that we won't be able to host that content anymore. I wish I had a better answer for you, I'm as bamboozled by how crazy everything is getting as everybody else is. If the US starts saying we need to check people's drivers licenses to look at an illustration of a furry or whatever we'll have to make changes to deal with that.

We've not always been okay with hosting NSFW content. We don't (have never) envisioned Neocities as a porn hosting platform, and regularly take down sites trying to do this.

I'm working on a new terms of service that will clarify more of this in the near future. In a lot of ways it actually increases what is allowed to be put on a neocities site and increases clarity, but I'll probably get screamed at for it either way. Not looking forward to it.

For anyone that uses Neocities, sharing this from the Fediverse. It looks like if you've got adult content on there, potentially discuss said content, or even just us it for your art gallery... You might want to download your full website and be ready to move just in case...

Fuck censorship!

Micronauts - The Complete Series - YouTube https://www.reddit.com/r/lostmedia/comments/1m6u2gv/found_micronauts_fully_produced_but_cancelled/

Hey Bluesky I would like to remind you again (because not everyone is terminally online somehow) that a) the produced-but-unaired Micronauts cartoon has finally leaked and b) you can now watch it all on YouTube and also c) it’s good, actually!

yeah tbh if you do not have the political awareness to comprehend that Appalachia has been smeared and erased BECAUSE 100 years ago, a meaningfully multiracial movement of Appalachian workers successfully struck and fought to secure most worker protections in the US today... now you do

"You can't strike, you're too important" from a judge or government should instantly make you side with the people striking. They're *that* important but they get treated like shit? Nah. Naaaah. Let the government force better conditions.

The UK speedran straight from porn to educational material in the regulation-to-censorship pipeline. We were warning people of this kind of thing but it happened faster than I expected.

An infograph meme quoting a moment from the movie "The Incredibles".

There is black text that reads:
Alright, listen closely. I'd like to help you with the ads, but I can't.
I'd like to tell you to click on the gear icon and select "Report Playback Issue". But I can't.
I also do not advise you to select anything related to how the advertisement is offensive or inappropriate; I wouldn't expect Twitch to do something about the ICE ads if they get flooded with enough reports.

Below, there are images that are as follows:
From left to right, top to bottom.

Mr Incredible whispering to an old lady in an office building.
A screenshot of Twitchs' Settings menu with "Report Playback Issue" highlighted.
A close-up of Mr Incredible whispering.
A screenshot of Twitchs' Report Playback Issue menu with a dropdown menu containing options.

Studio behind Oblivion Remastered, one of 2025's biggest hits, subject to mass layoffs Virtuos has reportedly been impacted by layoffs, affecting seven percent of staff.

At this point it just really doesn't matter anymore how well or badly a game sells. If management feels that number could go up faster by axing 300 jobs that's what they'll do. There's always more profit to be made. It'll never be enough. Absolute fucking bullshit.

I can confirm the PBS Passport is a very good deal for $5/month or $2.50/month if you do yearly.

Thousands of hours of top notch content. NOVA is great. The new Ken Burns doc on Leonardo da Vinci is excellent.
