l think this is another demo of perhaps the one trait that has best kept society from falling entirely to powerful people over the centuries: the rapid stupidification one undergos once you surround yourself with people who can't tell you when you are being dumb. Regimes collapsed from this

bones are a natural part of the human body, it probably looks like that just to show how healthy it is.

The next extra image from last month's Shape poll was Sarah in a huge silly 3b shape! She's blowing up her own voodoo balloon and filling herself in such an adorable way! This shape suits her and was inspired by @/Whaturhoes who is an INCREDIBLE artist you should go check out!

Remember, plenty of people will be calling in with card issues during the wave of online sales in November, and they would be very upset if they miss their deals because they couldn't get through. Sure would be a shame if the phones were clogged then

Even having seen the Deep Lore from previous reveals, I'm still shocked by how much worse it is than l remember every time l see it. l wonder how linked this is to you deciding to kill the entire ocean.

l quit them years ago and started downloading my music from Bandcamp when l could find it there. I've spent less, supported the artists more, and actually get to keep it after it's paid for instead of vanishing with a canceled subscription

Might pay off to try for a big push in the week leading up to Thanksgiving, if their lines are overloaded while a surge of people want issues resolved during cyber deals, it would really hurt them

Whu oh, it looks like Wide Witch Wednesday is hitting Akila with a vengeance as she gears up for Halloween. Hopefully Hazel can float her out of here...somehow.

#SaveSpeech

If you're like me and you are struggling to contact your senators re: KOSA via their phone lines this week, I recommend attempting to send physical letters or emails in the meantime.

Here is a script you can use to contact your reps!

www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...

Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [LOCATION]
I'm messaging to demand [SENATOR] oppose S. 1748, the Kids Online Safety Act, also known as KOSA. This broad legislation does not protect anyone and instead will be used to block any speech that the Trump administration’s partisan FTC disagrees with. It pushes the “duty of care” onto websites and social media platforms to remove content that is “harmful to children”. It would lead to overcompliance, mass censorship, and remove access to crucial information re: everything from mental health, LGBT topics, substance abuse, eating disorders and more.
Additionally, while large, corporate platforms like X can shoulder the weight of “duty of care”, smaller websites cannot, leading to greater and greater concentrations of power online into giant corporate platforms rather than small and medium sized businesses.
KOSA will not make kids safer. It will make the internet more dangerous for anyone who relies on it to learn, connect, or speak freely. Lawmakers should reject it, and fast.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
IF SENATOR COSPONSORED KOSA: Additionally, I want to remark on [SENATOR]’s cosponsorship of this bill. I think it is shameful that [SENATOR] has backed a bill as transparently bad as KOSA. This will not keep kids safe, it is an excuse to censor the free and open internet. I will not be voting for nor donating to [SENATOR] in any future campaigns if they do not drop their co-sponsorship of this bill, and I will encourage everyone in my life to do the same.
Do the right thing.

Probably wasn't the target audience of this at all, but l got OGLAFed into it from the writing and the visual gags, not to mention the world building. You're really good at telling stories

porberson.bsky.social @porberson.bsky.social · 24d

Maybe it somehow backfeeds from an overflow on the furnace if it's got a bad expansion tank? There is an explanation somewhere, and now this is gonna haunt me. Weird benign problems are cool to have at least

is it in a basement that gets cold? could be a marginal valve that starts to seep as the rubber stiffens, but that's just a guess. l've got a light fixture in my apt that randomly fills with water maybe once a year with no discernable cause, probably ghosts

could be worse, I've had to switch to klearsky since they totally locked me out of adult content on the regular site unless l give them my identity despite that not being a thing in my state. This place is turning into another clown show, but at least it's not owned by an avowed nazi yet

jb weld uv glue is the best for stuff like that, comes in a little pen thing for about $15 and is basically superglue + magic

Sounds excellent, but l might love my goofy shark curtain too much to even entertain the idea of replacing it

Looks like adblock isn't dodging the age verification for me any more on this dipshit site, doubly annoying since that shit isn't actually mandated in my area the way they insist it is. These clowns will never get my personal information.

I remember learning about abolition and civil rights in school, and of course everyone saw themselves as one of the people fighting for it. Then l saw the fight around gay marriage and saw how many were probably wrong about themselves. How don't they recognize history when it repeats?

Lack of engagement, or did some reject mouth off about not getting their funny pictures? I wonder if people have always been so entitled, or if that's a side effect of rampant consumerism

The more public the rich or heads of companies become, the more transparently obvious it becomes that they are terribly unfit people. What it takes to get there is absolutely not what you need to do well, or even to just be a decent human being

What a wonderful thing to focus on while the horrors are ongoing, giving restaurants an out to charge for every drink you get. Those fucking jerkoffs
