I am an enby autistic lesbian with severe asthma and hyperinflated lungs. I had a severe allergic reaction to a food that was safe in the past and had to be hospitalized. I also had to get my car's brakes fixed. Any help is appreciated. 😥🙇

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things

if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

If you can't come out right now, please don't hate yourself.
One day, the meaning of labels will disappear.

Please love yourself as you are.
The one who can cherish yourself the most is yourself.
Because that is your strength and beauty.
Chiitan loves you

personally i want to be as sacreligious to the canon and the very concept of it as possible. very sad how people have just lost their sense of creativity. people didn't care as much about canon as they do now

I explained all this to my mom last night, as well as all the other horrors queer people were subjected to during WWII, and she was horrified. She didn't know. This knowledge has been hidden from most people.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

Omeluum and Blurg have got to be my favorite BG3 characters. Them breaking off from their typically evil societies, and now working together to make the Underdark a better place makes them very interesting to me. Also they are gay

Fight Chat Control @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social · 3d

Denmark has tabled next week's vote on Chat Control.

Yet, per Peter Hummelgaard:

"The Danish Presidency will, however, continue to work with the member states to find a solution, and therefore negotiations on the technical details of the proposal continue. It is urgent to find common ground."
