This is a fever dream. The city is not under migrant occupation. This whole thing kicked off because ICE began an intense operation across the city to raid Home Depots and nail salons and places where random undocumented immigrants might be going about their day working a job.

That is not something that can be shrugged off for a mass market tool.

I cannot begin to express how truly and deeply I want these anti-human, scum fuck, corporate ghouls to lose their jobs. *Minimum.*
"Listen, if a Bad President can come in and take away our rights and we're dependent on a Good President replacing them in four years to give us back our rights, then we do not have any rights. "If politicians can take or distribute them, then they're not 'inalienable' and they're not 'rights.' "We don't have inalienable rights we have conditional privileges, divvied out according to the whims of whoever currently holds the reins. "And if we want to have actual rights, then we must build a system in which no one has the power to take them away to begin with."
I've been screaming this for years.

Honestly, this kind of survey was doomed from the start because romance and sexy plots are still seen as inherently bad so a lot of people do NOT share in public that they like them, even for anonymous surveys.

Nightdive uses real people to help remaster and preserve classic games with its KEX engine, often collaborating with the original game creators to ensure the final product remains faithful to the original. An AI upscale/port with 0 thought put into it is not "preservation".

Another reminder for those who still seem to have not understood:
Chat programs do not “look up” information and then repeat it. They write plausible language in answer to a prompt based on their data set. References will use real people, journals & words from titles, but will not truly exist.

Alternative Alamat edited by @anitero.bsky.social 5/5. It took me more than a year to finish this book, not because it was a hard read, but because I never wanted it to end. The Alipin’s Tale by Raymond Falgui is my favorite but there isn’t a lackluster story in this collection #books #philippinelit

And one is because the word “bias”, in all of its forms, is often used in the text of work that employs statistical methodology, especially Epi.

Sticker decal on a lamp post. It reads: I don't wear rainbow colored items to tell you who's in my bed. I wear progressive pride items so the family acriss the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren't alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won't judge. I wear because you make them hide.
Just saw this in a chat. And I think I'm gonna wear way more 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ items again.
Don't let them make you afraid. Show them we still stand together. Against them.
