Christina Applegate tells Jimmy Kimmel, “It might be Covid, I’m just super duper sick and you’re gonna have it."

#WTF 🤬

This is why we can't trust anyone.

Mask 😷 up. Wear a respirator to avoid infections. Test everyone close to you.

One of my sons just love Capybaras. Thanks to @badsquiddogames.bsky.social I can now incorporate capybaras into their dnd-sessions!

Two exceptionally beautifully carved Mithraic altars found in Inveresk, East Lothian, Scotland, are going on display for the 1st time. The Roman altars date to the 140s - when S-Scotland was reoccupied under Antoninus Pius 📷 National Museums Scotland & Duncan McGlynn media.nms.ac.uk/news/rare-ro...

This is one of the reasons we should be *very* wary of things like digital ID, extended facial recognition and AI policing. These are tools we should not put in the hands of fascists.

UK loses measles elimination status Decision made after outbreaks in 2024, when there were nearly 3,000 cases in England and Wales.

The UK has lost its measles elimination status, the World Health Organization has announced.

Vaccine disinformation is a worldwide pandemic that is killing us.

He was bound to drop that scarf in some time zone or other.

100% agree! There's a huge difference between adapting to fit the constraints of a specific medium and this.

Social media companies will just change their format/ layout on a whim and all our carefully planned and formatted content will just get fucked up in an instant.

This is very useful I’m sure and I am 100% guilty of this but counterpoint we really, really, really need to stop adapting ourselves, our art, our music, our lives to fit what tech companies have arbitrarily decided this month

Here’s one video shared with us of the state-ordered execution. The man was beaten in the head with a gun, shot once, then shot five more times while on the ground. State-ordered executions continue.

I found out today that one of the forces pushing Trump the hardest for this Greenland shit is… the owner of Estée Lauder.

Sharing this here because they own SO MANY makeup brands and I bet a lot of you might like to join me in not repurchasing anything from this makeup brand family!

And I fucking hate the caveats especially "NO CRIMINAL RECORD."

People who have criminal records ALSO deserve dignity. OK.

UK media used "trans woman" for decades, but now claims an 8 word phrase is "clearer?" 🐂💩.

See also terms used for immigrants.

Trump-friendly US media use this tactic to legitimise persecution of people the Administration targets.

UK media dehumanising of trans people has the same goal.

"Trans zealots" - it was one trans woman who'd worked without issue for 4 years until this lot came along

Getting fuck sick of transphobic cunts

Many moons later and I finally got around to painting him (!!!)
