Feels like something cracked today in the transatlantic alliance. Europeans have been swallowing their pride, bitting their tongues, and bending the knee. That strategy may have bought them time but it has now clearly failed. It also had a major cost - it has made the WH think Europe will cave. 1/

I just can't stop thinking about how America voted for this to happen and how so many people are watching this government's ethnic cleansing campaign and clapping like seals.

🧵As @ajaxsinger.bsky.social said, "White people using whiteness to combat white supremacy is key to defeating white supremacy."
And as I've said: WW need to understand that, in a white supremacist patriarchy, our bodies & lives have value only insofar as we serve the white supremacist patriarchy.

A big part of why the Right is furious at White women right now is because they're increasingly using their Whiteness as shield and a weapon and it's honestly fucking great.
what a legend lmao

I got blocked once after asking a poster for alt text. Their response was "you can't do that with text" and i replied they could.
People can also look stuff up on the internet.

Since a few people have asked, it's quite easy these days to extract text from any image. There are many tools that will help, but here's how I do it.
Right click on any image in Chrome and there's an option for "Google Lens" which will let you highlight any text and it will pop up a "copy text" option.

I've emailed @bennet.senate.gov multiple times over the course of last year. Not long ago I received a very vague response that also included a paragraph that was in a completely different font. Are they just cutting and pasting things now? Using AI?

Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

Just saw a part time instructional designer postion, and the amount of generative AI they want someone to use is absurd. Is this where we are heading.
Also, contract that shit, don't make someone come into an office for part time hours.

Not a well known celebrity in the U.S., but one of my favorite musical artists in Pakistan in early 00s was Faakhir. While waiting at the embassy to pick up my passport I happened to meet him and chat awhile. I also found out it was his mom whom was a big interview for me. He was very very cool.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

I'm not overly hopeful about Senate Dems doing the right thing. There are far too many of them who are listening to centrist consultants who are telling them they could get the party nomination for the presidential ticket if they just appeal more aggressively to bigots.

get a text from Veho shipping. looks fishy, but tis the season so i web search them from my desktop. They are a logistics company, who seems to get hired by a logistics company.
I still don't trust i actually have a package out there, but if I do, what is wrong with package delivery service?
