UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

me and anti-kink furries aren't in the same community. i'm in the furry community. the one that started at sci-fi conventions in the 80s. they're in some other community with the same name.

YouTube video by Hank Green Give me a single reason why Sora2 should exist.

If you are not normally a Hank Green fan, I want to inform you that he usually does not yell and curse like he does in this very justified 3 minute rant: youtu.be/Vz0oQ0v0W10?...

Please and thank you 🙏

How about the keyword “computer”? That’s a random word choice so feel free to ignore if another idea inspirers you ^^

@lindsayellis.bsky.social dropped her best video essay ever today.

If that sentence doesn't mean anything to you, let me assure you that this video is worth every minute of its movie length runtime.

It really is that good! I haven’t gotten far in it but it’s nice to pull up now and then and try some antes

AUGUST 16, 2025

Absolutely one of the best animated movies of all time for me.

I’ve been exploring a “major European city” because I am here for work reasons, and it’s been so shocking to me as a SF Bay Area Californian how cheap everything is:

Amazing restaurants right next to major landmarks and tourist areas? Dinner was £16

Museums? £0-£12

Even fancy hotel is under £190

I like the yellow one more, but they are both good

Wow. This piece says so much in a way I instantly understand. Thank you for sharing.

Why I Revealed My Kink On Television Or, at least Internet Television.

For those who have seen the latest (“stand up crowd work”) episode of Game Changer, I thought this article from one of the called on audience members was really touching medium.com/@MeghanCherr...

This is the way. Make a clean break. If you see stuff about Harry Potter and your immediate reaction is "Oh, I'll pirate it instead of buying it.", you're reinforcing the false notion that society needs Harry Potter. We don't. Move on. Learn to like other things.

Hi, I'm an e621 staff member. There are no plans to shut down the site, and Bad Dragon (e621's owner) is currently exploring their legal options.

While backing up your favorites is always a good idea, do not fall for fear-mongering posts like this! Wait for an official announcement from us instead.

YouTube video by ALEX AVILA AI Wars: How Corporations Hijacked Anti-AI Backlash

This is the best video I have ever seen about gen AI: youtu.be/lRq0pESKJgg?...

So many think not being against genAI is somehow pro fascism. This is the leftist transgender take we need to add nuance to the discourse.

Sadly, many people aren’t bothering to listen before forming an opinion on this.

Seeing a truly full sky of stars for the first time in my life is a moment I’ll never forget. It’s amazing what you can see when you are far enough away from all other light sources

I would say so. At the very least I would say it is easy to find furry community spaces that do not tolerate hate.

YouTube video by Ash Coyote The Fandom: A Furry Documentary Full Movie

Furries are everywhere, from every walk of life. That includes hateful ones, but they are the minority. Furry is a culture rooted in queerness, founded by queerness.

Ash’s incredible documentary about furry culture is worth watching if you haven’t seen it yet: youtu.be/iv0QaTW3kEY?...

Oh yes for sure. Huge changes.

Neurodivergency is the norm in furry. I know multiple plural people. It’s not common, but I think much higher rates in our shared communities compared to the general population.

Figuring anything out about yourself in your 20s is pretty young. I didn’t even figure out my gender until my 30s!

I recently decided I am going to commission a robot sona next time you open for reference sheets. Then I’ll be able to get robot stickers =)
