I would never repost a means to keep your ID safe and to give the middle finger to a company ran by the grandson of Mosley.

I would also never encourage you guys to spread the word of this method to fill Palantir's servers with Metaverse like avatars to do a bit of trolling (a lot of it) 😇

Our feature tutorial/artist for today is this excellent set of notes on SKIN TONES by @deluxepeach! #conceptart #gamedev #animationdev #gameart #tutorial #indiegame #comicart #characterdesign #illustration

While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with.

Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Vance undermining the US Olympic Team would be too on the nose

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Just wanted to let you know.

Cook your favorite food

And Fuck ICE ❤️

important message to all bluesky users

That discord AI survey going around was not fake, the URL is linked to Discords account with the survey providing website as it matches prior official usage

It is not stealing your account, nor are there "invisible AI bots" in your server that you have to ban

People are just making shit up again

In the last two weeks, I've heard about:

-mRNA vaccine to treat age-related vision loss
-cure for Alzheimer's and a treatment to reverse cognitive damage
-Japanese scientists working on a way to regrow teeth

I'm in awe. What a time to be alive. 🤩

In light of recent Ai related nonsense in the creative industry, I wanted to present some easy-to-digest facts about Generative Ai

- this is a generative AI hate account.

LRT: Can confirm, I’m an adult and I still make amvs with my blorbos in my head when listening to music

neurodivergent kids listening to music and imagining complex animations with characters from their hyperfixations

it doesn’t go away as an adult btw

Are you from the UK? Do you consider yourself to be a supporter of trans rights and women’s rights? Are you dismayed by the news about the Girl Guides and Women’s Institute today?

Cool. So the *least* you can do today is email your MP. Get your friends and family to email, too. Speak up.

"No one is angry about games not containing gen AI" is such a hell of a good point. It is incredibly off-putting to many customers, an absolute deal-breaker, yet there is no flip side to that, no consumer base clamouring for it, no demand. They can only try to wear people down into accepting it.

FPF takes ICE to court over dangerous secrecy FOIA lawsuit targets ICE’s efforts to stop congressional oversight of detention facilities

“ICE loves to demand our papers but it seems they don’t like it as much when we demand theirs,” said Ginger Quintero-McCall, one of FPF's lawyers in our latest FOIA lawsuit against the immigration agency.

Judge rules George R.R. Martin and other authors can sue OpenAI for copyright infringement

• Said ChatGPT generated 'Game of Thrones' content similar enough to infringe copyright

• OpenAI’s motion to dismiss was denied

If you don't like YT doing this, make sure Bsky does not also do this to your international oomfies' posts by occasionally checking Settings > Languages > Content Languages and deselecting all

(this keeps Bsky from hiding posts that are not in a selected language)

I’ll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I leave Bluesky.

No. Be loud. They want us to be silent. Also maybe listen to the nsfw artists begging you not to do a blackout & instead fight this loud & as vocal as you can be, especially if you say you wanba do this for those artists.

Testing a theory:

reskeet if "every ICE agent will be unmasked and tried for their crimes" would get your vote

Please just let Palestinians KNOW you see their posts and care. These people are begging for a future and are treated like scams or some lost cause. These are real, living people trying to make it out alive.

The least people can do is let them know they aren’t invisible. Please.

They aren't backing down, they're getting MORE aggressive

So we need to get more aggressive too. Keep calling the payment pros. Start sending them letters. Contact your reps too & let them know you think censoring the internet and especially giving payment processors this kind of power is BAD
