They have a shaved hear, black jeans, and a leather jacket and boots in shades of yellow. A red handprint is painted over their mouth as they crouch in front of a bow of burning sage. The smoke from the sage wafts over the outlines of the capitol building that are drawn in white over a purple and pink background.
Today and every day, happy Indigenous Peoples Day

This is also a really good article about the heavily debunked yet frequently shared brain scan which anti porn groups often use to claim porn addiction is real !

Congratulations to Enya Strahler for submitting the winning design for the Evolution 2026 Conference logo!

A photograph from the 1988 ACT UP demonstration outside the FDA. Many people are participating in a die-in on the front steps, holding mock tombstones with messages like "RIP - killed by the FDA" and "Dead from lack of drugs." A line of police officers (some with classic 80s mustaches) wearing riot helmets stands between them and the building; one cop wearing white gloves is walking through the demonstrators. Affixed to the 2nd story windows of the building is a series of posters and a large blank banner reading Silence = Death.
This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

It's almost like that's all trans folks want: To be able to live with respect and dignity alongside everyone else. And not be terrified constantly their basic human rights will be taken away, they'll be refused housing or work or socially ostracized.

Imagine hiding behind creators who actually worked hard on shit...
The creators didn't make the awful AI you did. Nobody is criticizing the creators they're criticizing YOU TSS.

Robin as Bluesky: "No discussing self-harm, suicide, abuse (sexual, drugs, substance, etc.) unless it's educationalβ!!!" Batman as 18+ creators (or non-professionals in general): "Artists are not teachers or therapists. We are not obligated to teach you anything."

Below the horizon, carefully chosen ancestors mark pivotal moments in adaptation, each contributing to the form and survivor we see today. Above the horizon, Coyote stands alert at the center, framed by both Denverβs skyline and a mountain backdrop, symbols of their ability to thrive in cities as well as wilderness. Embedded in the ground are the skulls and bones of carnivores whose lineages ended long ago, emphasizing Coyoteβs persistence in contrast.
