Trans men are the counterweight we need to balance the shitty, terrible, toxic, cis men out there. There are good cis men for sure, but the number of terrible ones is through the roof.

Trans dudes are cool and better models of nontoxic masculinity, and boys should be looking up to them

idk if anyone needs to hear this today, but: if you are a trans dude, the fact that you are a man is a good thing and your existence as a trans man makes the world a better place. it is not a bad thing that you are a man and it's especially not bad that you are a trans man. the fact that you exist as a man is a great thing and you are amazing. sleep well tonight

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

If you can find the Etsy store I'd love to have that link. Even if they can't mail to us now, things will get better.

There needs to be more coverage of this in the news. I have read so many stories bout this on Facebook, first hand stories of the terror of that storm, and very little coverage n media.

Screenshot of a Facebook post. Photo is an elderly woman holding a child on her ap on a couch with flood water around them. Both are wearing jackets inside. Text says: This was after our 1st drift.. staying put for awhile. Our 3rd and final drift was terrifying. House moving fast then we started spinning in circles. While we were spinning in circles my oldest daughter was just staring at me while I held onto my younger two. Kipnuk doesn't look like kipnuk anymore, like more than 3/4 of the homes displaced, power poles fallen. It smells like stove oil outside. Contaminated

As a librarian and archivist, part of my training is in reference. If you do not know, reference is the art and science of teaching students, other researchers, and the public how to actually do their own research.
It makes me livid when my colleagues promote this shit.

Large Marge Sent Me 👻 @restingdinoface.bsky.social · 17d

Among the reasons I absolutely loathe genAI is the fact it devalues and undermines skills like learning how to research, fact check, and communicate. It’s like answering a question with a print out of search engine results, taking it as truth because the computer said so.

"Can we sell black characters in this political climate?" That is what Ubisoft asked itself and then answered, "No." Which is a skill issue and bigotry on THEIR part because black entertainers are out here selling their wares EVERY DAMN DAY, antiblackness be damned. Our culture MOVES NUMBERS.

Hating the Klan is not anti-white. Large swaths couldn't even join the Klan until they had to open up to avoid dying off. The Irish, Greeks, Italians, French, etc.? No dice. You could be 100% Nordic and if your ass was Mormon? Bye.

Hating fascists is righteous and pure American brotherhood.

thought about this more and really it's like going to a restaurant, getting served something subpar, and when you go to try and send the dish back/ replace it with something else they go, "our product isn't the food, it's this lovely dining room atmosphere, and therefore we will do nothing for you"

it's honestly incredibly funny that bluesky staff think we're here because of their code. I am only here because my friends are and i do not expect the duration of my stay to be very long at this rate

capitalism is like, a really really huge pyramid scheme.

When enough people aren't seeing any kind of benefit of capitalism, everything stalls. The whole point is to circulate money, so when it doesn't- bc poor people have none and rich people hoard/accumulate it all- everything just sort of stops

Kameron Hurley @kameronhurley.com · Sep 23

Been trying to explain why economy increasingly feels like it's running wholly on rich people passing each other same bag of money - innovation is stalled, unemployment is rising, but stock tickers are still somehow going up. This example captures the current state of our economy perfectly.

Tweet:

So let me get this right. Oracle says openai committed 300b for cloud storage. Oracle stock jumps 36% Oracle runs on Nvidia gpus. Has to buy billions in chips from Nvidia. Nvidia just announced they're investing 100b in openai. Openai using that money... To pay oracle. Who pays Nvidia. Who investa in open ai

Most Scooby Doo Villains are either trying to save something from capitalism or just want money.

Many of them use insane inventions to become a monster.

It seems like those villains could have just used their invention to get the money they want (or solve the problem capitalism is causing)

I cannot emphasize this enough:

The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent.

They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so.

Doomers are not realists.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.
