Exactly. Before the recent influx, Bluesky might not have lasted as long as it did without the lgbtq+ and sw communities which took root here.

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

Trans Bathroom Ban Bills Now Expanding To Private Businesses
Earlier last week, Kansas passed a bathroom bounty bill that could target private businesses. Now, Idaho will hear a similar bill that is more explicit that private businesses are also impacted.

How is there NOT ONE WORD IN THIS about sexualized AI-generated images of women and children?
That hasn't stopped happening. You want a cold shiver up your spine, tell Rhett Reese what it's like to see your three-year-old's face in Grok-generated porn.
It might be just a LITTLE bigger than jobs.

Is it just me, or does "13 Going on 30" feel like a horror movie that was rewritten to be a rom-com?

"Ararat" is one of my all-time faves. On one level, it's specifically tackling the Armenian genocide, but on another, it's tackling the subject of history itself: how we remember it, how we forget it, how we preserve it, how we bury it, & how we're traumatized by it.

In case anyone missed it last week. I made a teaser trailer for a mockumentary feature I wrote.

Made with $0, just my husband and parents. It's mortifying. I can't act. Our accents are very fake. The full script has a large ensemble cast. But I wanted to do SOMETHING, so I made this teaser, for a mockumentary feature I wrote last year.

Curse My Name - Blind Guardian
A truly exceptional masterpiece of a song, even for them. The layered instrumental and choral build-up throughout the middle of this track is some of my all-time favourite music.

Even more awful, right wing groups tried to pin it on a trans woman who doesn't even live in the area and doxxed her. The shooter is apparently already dead from a self inflicted wound.
My heart aches for everyone. Police are being cautious about releasing information.

Finally watched the start of Fringe, one of my partner’s faves. It just hit me that the setup reminds me of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” if it was for a slightly older audience and was sci fi instead of supernatural. Broyles and Dr Bishop are two sides of Gyles, Peter is part Willow part Angel, etc.
