Two birdies, actually. And the thingies on their heads and below their birdie chin definitely make them look like chicken.

It's definitely a birdie.

But to be fair, it's a really large chicken.

I'm sorry, but for budget reasons, your chariot to the afterlife is scheduled to be pulled by a chicken.

She offered to row the old wizard and the young king out on the lake. When a hand emerged from the water, holding a sword aloft, the king took the sword. And she took hold of the hand, let herself be pulled down, down.

The Lady of the Lake breathed air into her lungs with a laugh.

"You again?"

Wie widerlich ist das denn? Queerness zu instrumentalisieren, um einen Genozid zu rechtfertigen - als ob es keine LGBTQIA Menschen in Gaza gรคbe und als ob diese nicht auch durch die Bomben der israelischen Armee ermordet werden wรผrden. The frigging White audacity of Mรผller and the Queerde crowd!

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags Activist tells Swedish officials she has been subjected to harsh treatment, including insufficient food and water

โ€œโ€œThey dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,โ€ the Turkish activist Ersinร‡elik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.โ€+

I've already gone and emailed like 50 people about this a while ago. Everyone who bothered to reply to me is against Chat Control (Greens, Liberals, Social Democrats mostly), so it might be good to put more pressure on parties/MPs right of centre now. They're the most likely to still support this.

Fight Chat Control - Protect Digital Privacy in the EU Learn about the EU Chat Control proposal and contact your representatives to protect digital privacy and encryption.

Are you in the EU? Then check this out: There's a proposal to scan ALL of our private digital communcations, including encrypted messages and our pictures. This basically means mass surveillance of all EU citizens and severely undermines our rights + democracies.

It is a deliberate policy: for two years now, Berlinโ€™s mayor has chosen not de-escalation units but riot police โ€“ officers known for routinely unleashing extreme levels of violence against anti-genocide protesters; week after week, day after day.

"What they propose is in effect a mass surveillance free-for-all, opening up everyoneโ€™s intimate and confidential communications, whether government officials, military, investigative journalists, or activists. For all of Europeโ€™s talk of sovereignty, this is a bizarre cybersecurity decision"

I also just find it really UNSEEMLY when i see well-off people dedicating their energy and time to fighting for the hypothetical rights of theoretical future sentient AIs, when there's a lot of 100% real, sentient humans and animals suffering horrifically they could be focusing on instead

Yep. And some publishers seem to have "forgotten" to register books for copyright.
