This averages out at a violation roughly every four hours, around the clock, continuously since 10 October. At what point do we stop calling it a ceasefire when Israel has just literally not ceased firing

Wow…

I watch Arsenic and Old Lace every year but I hate scary movies 😅

I have called every radio station in this godforsaken country to play my favourite Spooky Season song and they refuse. Put @bigdirtyfry.bsky.social on the airwaves you cowards

Yea same, I’m a little afraid of it jumping the shark, so to speak, for season 3. But the 2 seasons so far were remarkable!

I animated this a year or two ago and finished it over the weekend when I felt so ill that I couldn't concentrate on much else, but for some reason animation clean up was grand

zeldawilliams 20m From Create Mode •• Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want. To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, , just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

She’s got my no. 1 vote, too!

That makes a ton of sense. Thanks so much!

Q for Irish BlueSky: It’s not my first time voting in Ireland but I’ve gotten conflicting answers in the past, so it’s still a bit opaque to me.

Is it better to give candidates you’re not interested in a lower rank or no rank at all? Thanks for your help! #Áras25 #speirgorm

I could easily see myself voting for someone who runs on abolishing ice and prosecuting every single one of them and the entire administration

Mikeno is on Gaza waters and 20 or so ships are following, but Mikeno apparently sent a distress signal about 10 hours ago, so no one knows if it's actually boarded by IOF

there's no confirmation from anyone on board or on the flotilla yet, as rest of the boats are small

Google won’t be forced to sell its Chrome browser and can keep paying companies to keep its search engine as the default on smartphones, thanks to a federal ruling.

In other words? Google gets to remain a monopoly and keep its harmful, anti-competitive practices.

Shameful.

I only want it if it’s a FemShep & Garrus romantic dramedy.

It’s a huge bummer to watch people use a lack of media literacy as a dismissive rejoinder instead of doing things to increase said media literacy.

Just explain the thing that you think other people are missing, and then people can know!

Meet the independent, fierce, proactive women of medieval Ireland Translators of medieval romances reshaped stories to portray Irish women as more independent and proactive than their English counterparts

Apple TV openings all seem to have a similar vibe, too. Perhaps a not-so-subtle reminder of which subscription service you watch more of, so don’t cancel or you’ll lose all these similar shows!

“The ‘grown women’ of Ireland remember very well what erasure and control and lack of bodily autonomy feel like and it’s for this very reason that we stand so passionately with the trans community today”

Again we see the incoherence of right-wing policy. Rounding up homeless people and imprisoning them *is* housing them! Punitive solutions to this problem also cost a shitload and require a massive bureaucracy.

They are fine with providing housing, but only if it is ineffective and dehumanizing.
