Honest Erotica @honesterotica.bsky.social · 1d

Vienna-born American Franz Felix only illustrated two erotic works – Pierre Louÿs’ Songs of Bilitis in 1928 and E. Powys Mathers’ anthology Eastern Love in 1930, but his stylish plates are a model of composition and the gently suggestive. See them now at www.honesterotica.com/illustrator/....

I know there's a cashier now who believes I'm a huge Megumi from JJK fan because I bought four keychains (the joke is that I haven't seen a single JJK episode and that that's literally the only character I can name, and only because he's SRae's favorite)

Current fear: everyone being able to tell who is the only character in this huge media franchise that I absolutely despise just from how I allude to them in this fic

I found Baby 5 while digging through the discount bin and didn't have the heart to leave her there, so now I own a Baby 5 figure.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

ive said this before, but the dissonance of marketing AI as an absolute source of unlimited intelligence (the implication being some sort of factuality or neutrality), while a few very wealthy humans manually carve it to say the things they want, should be ringing alarm bells for everyone

The administration “is currently pressuring OpenAI and other AI companies to make their models more conservative-friendly.”

OpenAI is trying to clamp down on ‘bias’ in ChatGPT

GPT-5 is better at resisting liberal ‘pressure,’ the company says.

I prefer “anti-fascist“ for a host of reasons and this is a nice practical one.

Ify Nwadiwe @ifycomedy.com · 1d

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

Since some people seem to be misunderstanding things:

It's not that I can't cook from relatively scratch ingredients (flour, milk, eggs, dried beans, etc).

It's that it's not a failing to not do so every day. Which, again, is a thing that most people, even historically, didn't do either.

Mike Wiser @drmikewiser.bsky.social · 1d

For any who need to hear this:

Most people, throughout history, have not had to cook every day. It's not weird to not always have the energy to do that. And when you have some but not tons of energy, a lot of packaged or frozen foods have gotten good in the past 20 years.
