@aoc.bsky.social says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody."

"We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind."

Bluesky feels very positive tonight. It's good to see.

Big W. I know he's got a tough job ahead of him but I'm hoping that he does the needful for NYC. 👍

“Young adults aren’t having enough kids” bro I’m employed full-time with a damn PhD and I’m struggling to afford both groceries and rent.

I love kids but I can barely afford my pets.

Want us to have kids? Try UBI, rent control, universal healthcare, cheaper child care.

This is a crisis. We cannot wait to fix this.

How My Reporting on the Columbia Protests Led to My Deportation As an Australian who wrote about the demonstrations while on campus, I gave my phone a superficial clean before flying to the U.S. I underestimated what I was up against.

This is fascist shit. And I don't say that lightly.

Denying people entry at the border is upsetting but fundamentally legal. That's not new.

What is new is political motivation + denying free speech + targeting journalists for writing truthfully about protests.

Screenshot of a Steam review: Not Recommended 18.7 hrs last two weeks / 98.6 hrs on record Posted: 16 Sep @ 2:10pm The characters are really cute and well animated. I just wish they were in a real game and not a glorified slot machine. I'm not even talking about it being a gacha - I've played plenty of those. I mean the bulk of the gameplay is literally you sitting there pulling the lever over and over while numbers pleasingly ping across the screen, waiting for that one big payoff. It took me over 100 career runs before I realized it, but now I can't unsee it. And I don't want to become the kind of person who just sits there pulling the lever over and over on a slot machine. The characters really are cute, though. :(

honestly thinking i might retire from umamusume now because the prospect of preparing for cancer cup already fills me with dread

i did leave a review, though

Can’t be disappointed if you expect things to go wrong anyway.

No disagreement from me

Guess it’s just boomer complaints

Wow, I really need to spellcheck what I type…

Hate the normalization of using chat programs to conduct work matters. Chat is easily forgotten because it’s seen then promptly forgotten. E-mail might be tired but at least it’s a more proper paper trail

Opinion | We Ran the C.D.C.: Kennedy Is Endangering Every American’s Health

9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American."

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

Bringing back a classic

Dear Mastercard, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my concern and disappointment regarding recent decisions made by your company that are having a significant impact on online markets, particularly those that cater to adult content creators and artists. Your actions appear to be motivated by a desire to curb the distribution of what you deem inappropriate content. While I understand the need to maintain a certain level of decency and safety, I must emphasize that these moves are causing immense harm to creators who are engaging in legal practices and contributing to the economy. I urge you to reconsider these decisions and work towards a solution that balances the need for safeguards with the rights of creators to earn a living from their work. I kindly request that you reverse the recent changes and cease attempts to censor adult creators who are operating within the bounds of the law. Looking forward to your positive response. Sincerely, Henrick Sent with Proton Mail secure email.

I decided to get low and dirty and go right for people working at Mastercard according to their own contacts pages. This is how Collective Shout does it.

t would be cool if y'all grounded your support of sex workers, NSFW artists, trans women and such in the fact that it's the right thing to do and not in the fact that they might come for you later. We are people with lifes worth living too.

hell? yea, brother

Day 4 of trying to do intermittent fasting seriously and it is truly suffering. Gotta do what I gotta do to get back on track though.

With travel coming up soon though, the suffering will really hit 😅
