We are living through the most consequential shift in the constitutional government of the United States in over a hundred and fifty years and nobody seems to have even noticed yet.

Congress no longer holds the power of the purse, the executive can just do whatever they want with federal monies

I didn’t get to pay daycare last week. The fee is usually $125 but I paid extra the other week and I owe $110.

Plus the $125 due this week.

So please help if you can. Please.

I made Manana's Battle Soup from Xenoblade Chronicles 3!

I've been re-playing the game recently and I felt a great calling. The hardest part was hunting down the bunnits...

this is the soup I made! It's a creamy soup with radishes cut into star shapes, sausages and carrots

You're living through one of the biggest technological transformations in world history and it has nothing to do with AI

Jan Rosenow @janrosenow.bsky.social · 22h

Grid scale batteries are changing our electricity system. Excellent new visual story on batteries in FT today shows just how far this technology has evolved.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is just the beginning.

Newsom vetoes both the PreP access and the HRT stockpile bill because he is worried it would increase healthcare costs...

He claims to support the aims of these bills. But the vetoes deny access to medical care for queer people.

(Context: He vetoed these 2 while signing 8 other queer rights bills)

Trans News Network @transnews.network · 9h

He also signed SB 590, which bolsters paid family leave.

Ceasefire doesn't mean the genocide is over, we must keep supporting Palestine. Ruaa has documented a lot, and been through so much, and it's devastating. Please offer her any support you can

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

When a trans woman dies of natural causes, at an age greater than 75, having lived more than half her life as herself, that is cause for celebration, not mourning.

Thank you, Miss Major.

the easiest way to identify a grifter is to notice if they ever, at any point, change their mind on something or admit that they are wrong, or could possibly be wrong

if not, they're most likely running a con
(or themselves being conned)

A reminder that when an actor says they “improvised” a moment in media, it usually means they suggested something and the crew figured out how to make it work

It doesn’t mean they just randomly started doing things and everyone stayed in character and kept filming everything as if it was normal

The Indiana Jones scene where he shoots the guy with the sword is improvised, but Harrison Ford obviously didn’t just pull out a fake gun and shoot at a guy.

They had to improvise because Harrison Ford had dysentery.

Elaborate improvisation with everyone’s knowledge is still improvisation.
