โ€œPeople get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.โ€ - Assata Shakur

There's a quote by Assata Shakur, one I think of pretty much every day.

"Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them."

Truth.

Keep fighting against oppression, as she did all her life.

Dear Legal Department, Intellectual Property Policy;
With due respect, I would like to inform you about a group with political interests, namely Homeland Security, has been using Pokรฉmon content, as you may see in the link and image attached below. 

I would like to draw attention to the meaning of the content being published, as it goes against ONU and human rights, to classify people as monsters to be hunted (and murdered). 
Furthermore, to the image of the Pokรฉmon brand, this propaganda may leave an irreversible stain.

Court sides with ACLU and queer performers over federal trans funding restrictions As in many authoritarian campaigns, art has been recognized as a vital form of resistance โ€” but bad actors have sought to curtail it accordingly.

The Trump administration can't be allowed to punish arts organizations that uplift trans and queer experiences.

We celebrate this win, not just for our clients but for all of our First Amendment rights.

Q: The anime's original scenes often become a topic of discussion. How are those created?

Kasama: Basically, we ask Mr. Araki things like, โ€œWhat were you feeling when you drew this?โ€, โ€œCan you tell us this character's background?โ€, or โ€œCould you give a full name to a character who doesn't have one?โ€ and then proceed based on his answers. It's the same for Part 7.

When we first launched the anime, one of the things we asked him about was the principles behind JoJo's posing. This is secondhand, so it might not be completely precise. Putting it roughly, his advice was: โ€œRather than focusing on small details, emphasize sketching with the skeleton in mind. Only when you go as far as dislocating the joints does it really become a pose.โ€

With that in mind, we told the animators, โ€œTake off the restraints of common sense.โ€ At first, everyone drew in a way that would be considered the common practice for an artist. So we'd send their work back saying, โ€œMore! Push it to the point where it looks like the joints are popping!โ€ Bit by bit, they got the feel of what makes something look JoJo-like.

David Production producer Nobutaka Kasama shared that Hirohiko Araki is involved with anime-original scenes in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, including naming previously unnamed characters. He added that this is also the case in the upcoming Steel Ball Run anime.

Badass auto reply. #goals
Screenshot of a resignation letter from Elizabeth Booker Houston, JD, MPH. She writes that she is no longer with the FDA, stating the U.S. government has been taken over by fascists and incompetent hires chosen for loyalty to a wannabe dictator rather than merit. She says she will fight the administration elsewhere, calls the dismantling of public health systems an atrocity, and criticizes people like Makary and RFK Jr. for their role. She condemns illegal firings, expresses love for the agency but says leaving is the right choice, praises dedicated civil servants still fighting, promises to advocate from outside the Executive Branch, and ends with โ€œThe sun will rise again!โ€ followed by her signature.

If a country wanted to become the hub of software and game development pretty much uncontested, all they would have to do is aggressively pass laws protecting trans people and extending immigration support to them. Don't even mention programming skills or whatever, just help trans people survive.

A lot of good things in here: free (no payments) NSFW content can go back up; there's a pathway laid down for some paid NSFW content to come back, and positive statements from Stripe that indicate pressure campaigns are working. All really positive. So happy to see.

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.
