This'll sound weird, especially now that there's the Prince version (which is also amazeballs and better than the original) but...

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

I see people sharing this, maybe as an act of shared mourning, an attempt to stir action, or confirmation that the world sucks. The death of reef ecosystems pushed me into a panic about climate change in 2013 & led to me starting the Climate Anxiety Counseling booth in 2014. So, a few things (1/5)

I couldn't help but laugh, it was SO CRANKY at the door for being in it's way. That face is so "what the fuck is this fucking shit?!"

It does look a bit like a brown anemone about to eat the poor wren!

::laughs:: It's a wadded up dog paw towel-thing

Very very much ditto. Also that husbeast has moved another layer away so he's not paid out of the military R&D budget

An illustration of Miss Major surrounded by candles with blue background and a famous quote of hers written in gold. The quote reads“I don’t need their permission to exist; I exist in spite of them. I want you to train and teach and love on and create families within my community and gender non-conforming people, so that we can understand that we have a culture, we have a history, we have a reason to be here. We have a purpose. We’re entitled to be loved, and seek happiness, and share that with the people that we care about.” -Miss Major Griffin-Gracy

We honor the legacy of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, a fierce protector of our collective freedom. Our hearts are with her loved ones and all who carry her vision forward.

The DeAtramentis waterproof black is pretty decent. I used it in the field when I was in the Army

Sweet bejeebus, no

Holy fuck, No

There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

So he’s looking at children to eat?

Rest in Power to one if the OG greats. May your name inspire the next generation of fighters, and may they be the last fighters needed.

Heck yeah!

The gutting of the VRA in recent years is one of the topics mostly likely to get me in a fight with folks on social media, mostly because so few even know what Shelby v Holder was, or to what extent voting has not been free OR fair in much of the South, in the most racist ways imaginable.

Oh yes. They really are. I adore them. Both kinds we have are delightful

We KNOW much of it is because you can match the patterns to alibaba stuff

Ugh. Today was eaten by an MS chronic fatigue wall out of nowhere. Totally ate the afternoon. Feeling better now, but gah! I had THINGS to do!

I love them so much

Bird has now flown off to be disgruntled at the world!

Sounds to me like "CEO" sure isn't "real work"

Now alert and looking around.

A rather disgruntled looking wren on its back on a light wood floor.

I think we started the poor thing when I let the dogs out. Took off right into the edge of the door. Now resting outside to hopefully recover.

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

This crosses so many lines.

EMS and first responders need to be free to help whoever needs it.

Delays cost lives.
