Transgender Day of Remembrance

On this our saddest of days, not only should we remember those of us we have lost, but that we should renew our commitment to fight for a better world, where we can live without fear and hostility against us.

We have always been here, we are here, and we always will be here.

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.

If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

Border Patrol is monitoring US drivers and detaining those with 'suspicious' travel patterns The U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious.

I just wrapped up two projects with students working on automated license plate reader tech in the context of abortion and this is still more dystopian and horrific than anything we uncovered.

The US is now a surveillance state with border patrol as the Gestapo.

Few things bug me more than higher ed leaders saying that we lost our mission and lost the trust of the public, when we have actually been the target of a decades-long smear campaign by the right wing that worked. The moment we’re losing our mission is right now, in capitulation.

Beautiful! I have welcomed my own personal Great Unfuckening.

"The filter you’re losing wasn’t protecting you. It was protecting everyone else from your truth.

"And your truth? It’s not the problem."

In 2010, Keith Olbermann smeared the Assange rape accusers, went on a week-long tear of blocking everyone and quitting Twitter when criticized, then accused me of "glorifying smoking" because I had a cigarette in my PFP, but it would have made more sense if I'd known he was living with a teenager.

A seven-page comic. On page 1, the sun begins to set over an autumnal scene in a forest. The sun continues to set, reflected in the eye of a bird. The sun finishes setting, reflected in the bird's eye and zoomed out a bit. The bird has various hues of stormy blue feathers. The sun has fully set and the stars are out, and the bird, a female Black-throated Blue Warbler, says "It's time."

On page 2, the bird says "Ready for another night of migration?" to a male Black-throated Blue warbler, who replies "I ate all the good bugs in this forest, so, sure." She says "Okay. Let's do this." They take off from a branch, saying "Up up up." They hit their cruising altitude and fly through the starry darkening sky.

On page 3, they are flying along and the male says "I think this trip is going pretty good so far-" And the female interrupts "Wait." There's a green reflection in her eye. She says "There's something behind us." They turn and see the eerie glimmer of aurora. The male says "Oh"

On page 4, the male says "What is... Is that wildfire smoke?" And the female says "I don't think so." They book look alarmed. He says "Should we fly faster? Try to get away?" and she says "No, now it's in our flight path, too!" The aurora has spread and dances through the sky. Some of it becomes pink. He says "It's everywhere!" and she says "I... I don't understand."

With the aurora popping up again last night, I thought I'd repost this adventure from last year. I drew this when the great @nepeteaa.bsky.social wondered what night-migrating songbirds might make of it all. Part 1/2

pigeon pouches will be debuting in the shop update THIS FRIDAY! 🕊️

All joking aside, the heartbreaking thing about this story is seeing how a white “journalist” with poor prose & worst journalist ethics gets to repeatedly crash out & land plum jobs while so many poor, trans, Black, Native journalists never get in journalism’s door. Like…

The New York Federal Reserve says that delinquency rates of 90 days or more for mortgages, auto loans, and student debt have all increased over the past 12 months.

In one of my astrophoto groups, a guy posted a photo that shows some non-celestial stuff in it and someone said it’s satellite constellations and another person said that astronomers really hate those and several men have weighed in to say actually astronomers think they’re fine

Me: WE DO NOT

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.

somebody brought this up once in the context of Florida voters in 2000 and it fucked me up so much

just the cascading effects on our whole society from losing such a tidal wave of queer people

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

don't cross the picket line

Hey! Hey, you! Today is a perfect day to stop by that new(ish) locally-owned coffee shop you’ve been meaning to check out.

16 yo me: the united states is structured around child abuse

Psychiatrist: wow maybe u need more meds

Reality: the united states is structured around child abuse

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

I'd like more reviewers to take stands. If you find the use of generative AI in game development repugnant and you find its use ruins a game for you, then that's the review you should write. And that low score is the score you should give.

I guess the other thing I'll say is that by january 2025 I was like "america is over. america is full of placid cucks who will let their country go to fascists without a fight" because the bulk of the country and the media didn't care about doge taking over payments infrastructure, and i was wrong

So to reframe what we're all witnessing in real-time... the tech industry has already committed murder, and it is currently scrambling to figure out how to make that everyone else's problem, and to cover it up, before we notice what actually happened.

Also in case its not being mentioned in your feed, there is still a remaining vote for this and Somehow they didn't anticipate the outrage, so there's apparently some hesitation now.

If those were your senators, call them and don't stop. I will also be calling even though they arent mine

i have just been informed that the employer that fired me for this page has gone under. let this be a warning to you all.

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line.

Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding!
