Too much of this site is turning on alt text image descriptions on the grounds that they could be used to train AI.

Pro tip: If your AI-less utopia requires intentionally leaving out disabled people to achieve, you're imagining a dystopia.

The absolutely tragic evidence that the blogging era of feminism was a catastrophic failure is that there is no specifically feminist movement pressure to be applied right now on literally ANY of the surveillance, kidnapping, incarceration, shooting, forced pregnancies of women/girls.

Why Are Plans for This Alabama Data Center So Hush-Hush? Officials in Bessemer, Alabama, are mum on Project Marvel, a proposed data center the size of 18 Walmart Supercenters.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

This is certainly not going to have any negative knock on effects on the rest of the country.

For everyone who seemingly can’t get their heads around how I can understand why Jay might be acting the way she has while also 100% not agreeing with it, let me make it clear:

Jay’s public behavior on this site since waffles has been terrible, and there need to be serious amends made.

If I ran any sort of news outlet, I would send someone to Georgia to see what's going on at FLETSE.

That caption needs to be in the post, if not in the body, in the alt text. It is appalling that CNN is posting pics without alt text. A decontextualized photo from a news agency is misinformation every single time, but when the president is screaming that Portland is burning, it's disinformation.

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

This is also quite literally why Trump keeps saying that Portland is a war zone and things are burning. He saw 10 seconds of a video clip from the protests in 2020 on Fox News, decided it was current and it's useful to his handlers that he thinks that and useful nonsense for the cult to repeat.

Worker owned social media when

W/o downloading anything new - where are you mentally?

Unlike Jesus, I have returned.

You sure didn't think to ask President Circus Peanut why he thinks it's OK to always use "nasty" and "low IQ" while talking about Black women only. Maybe you can use your one question on something that actually makes some fuckin sense and is of consequence next time.

Some douche reporter really asked President Circus Peanut if there should be consequences for members of Congress comparing ICE raids to slave patrols? Fuck you mean? Congress, and everyone, can make any comparison they want. It's America and they have the right to say whatever the fuck they want.

also just feels important to point out that after a whole wave of trans users were suspended for pointing out JK Rowling’s transphobia, now apparently we are suspending Jewish users for pointing out Christian Zionists’ antisemitism

the pattern is, uh

not subtle

Do all those liberals and "don't pester Bluesky CEO/engineers" people still think nothing is wrong, and this place is doing fine or

For real.

There is no way that in standard English a word spelled "woah" wouldn't rhyme with Noah and Shoah. If you're going to misspell whoa, why not just wo?

To follow a minor-league team if you don't live in their media area, your best bet is going to be milb.com

It is very easy to get very deep into baseball info and know the exact roster of your team and the batting order and then you start learning statistics and lore and it can get very encompassing very quickly. Or you can intentionally keep it more casual. I know only the mildest lore and never stats.

It also shows we will listen to reality show tv hosts instead of fact based _______. (Fill in the blank)

a woman in a nurse 's uniform says that was a lie in front of a lamp . Alt: Sarah Paulson, dressed in a blue 1950s nursing uniform, says "that was a lie."

It took me more than a year to join this app after leaving Twitter permanently because of an incident where a user who was connected to Jay Graber made threats to a Black woman and it laughed off even when the user doubled down. I was told that safety was being taken more seriously, so I joined.

ICE is doing a hell of a lot of harm in the Chicago area *right now.* I don’t mean to trivialize the national guard stuff, it absolutely is an irresponsible escalation, but the guard-centric convo around this really does understate what’s going on without any guardsmen.

The BlueSky mod team (collectively) has a brain full of bees. I don’t know how they can run this bullshit and come up with “Yep. Makes sense.”

Whole damn thread is a word. Ive been going back and reading Baldwin again and got dang he gets it right every time

Indeed, if you didn't already cancel a Paramount+ subscription, today is the day.

We really need to retire "contrarian" as a descriptor for Weiss immediately.

The reason she is getting this job right now is because of her *non-contrarian* sensibilities.

She espouses views that the US's current power structure likes.

Can y’all PLEASE stop projecting other intentions on to a regime that has made it very clear that what they’re doing is taking the United States down as a global superpower.

Trump avoiding legal liability for pedophilia is not The Reason this is happening.

“Meant to distract.”

Or maybe it’s meant to do what it’s ACTUALLY DOING, which is destabilizing, terrorizing, and dividing the United States.
