if you allow cellphones at your meetings there's REALLY not any reason not to allow people to attend them remotely

especially if they're disabled and they're wearing themselves out with in person commitments during the week

The universe is too fucking fabulous for capitalism, y'all!

Last night's evidence:
1. North America Nebula (1 hour)
2. Andromeda (20 min)
3. Pac-Man Nebula (15 min)

The universe is basically just hydrogen, dark matter, and dark energy. Plus trillions upon trillions of perturbations lol
🔭
1/3

North America Nebula. Lots of red because of all of the hydrogen gas.

This misinformation post containing an AI generated video, claiming a reporter got arrested for covering ice is getting traction, it's been up for like 5 hours and it's still up.

Screenshot of a bluesky post by Jenn Budd (@jennbudd.bsky.social) of an AI video with Jenn's caption: "Seems like they are going after reporters who are women. They hit one w/pepper spray ammo in her car, the WGN reporter and now this." The screenshot is a still of a female reporter with three arms, two behind her back, one holding a microphone in front of her, staring off in the distance as she is arrested by officers, all but one of whom are off screen, the one behind her is also staring off in a direction off camera.

Long Covid is more prevalent in children in the US now than asthma. We are fucking destroying the next generations w/our behavior. (And adults.)

If you do care about resisting eugenics maybe start by not being the vector that disables a kid in RFK’s US. That is not too much to ask. It really isn’t.

Traveling halfway across the world & packing into a room for a conference panel on the theme of resisting eugenics.

But not wearing a respirator during a surge in the ongoing pandemic.

What a fun way to show how the research & scholars you’re there to ostensibly listen to mean jack shit to you.

it's so wild it's been mostly memory holed that bush's IT guy funneled the votes from ohio through his company's private servers and then died in a plane crash right before he was supposed to testify before congress about it

This is likely how the Diebold 2004 fuckery happened ftr. They just did it on select machines they had fuck up paper back ups at specific districts, with a rate of error in those districts 500% higher than the rest of Ohio with the same machines.

More history from this Nazi adulated by the Trump team. These are explicit, proud Nazis who scream and cry and call every referee they can find when you quote their Nazism back to them.

Multiple tweets from Nazi Jack Posobiec in 2016 making "jokes" involving the Nazi code "1488."

this reminds me very much of how musk would complain about twitter features needing to be fixed or removed whenever they posed a problem for him and/or the chuds he increasingly molded the site to serve

post text: “The ‘follow’ button confounds ‘I’m looking at your content’ and ‘I endorse this content.’ We need two different ways to signal the difference between the two.”

Fun little side note is that one of my labelers indicates her as a JD Vance follower because of course she is

i agree that the open world stuff was repetitive and the gameplay could have been a little bit more polished but i never get tired of setting up ambushes for the klan so it's kind of a special case for me
