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.

Bocchi the Rock! — The Visual Novel (2025)

a mockup of what a btr visual novel could look like :3

#pixelart #brart
#ぼっち・ざ・ろっく #bocchi #bocchitherock

A mockup of a conceptual visual novel game based on the Bocchi the Rock! franchise. The mockup consists of a border, a background, a talking sprite and a textbox.

The border is themed around an audio mixer, featuring dials, switches, and such. There's a photo of Kessoku Band jumping in the top left; a jack, XLR plugs and stickers inspired by the franchise on the right.

The background depicts a rehearsal room inside Starry, a club where a lot of the story takes place. The talking sprite is one of Bocchi herself, timidly holding a hand up to her neck and looking away while blushing. Her hair has red, blue and yellow highlights.

The textbox consists of two parts. First, a name field, styled after a "Hello! My name is" sticker. The name displayed is that of Bocchi, written like a stylized signature. The second part of the textbox is the dialogue, and it's stylized like sheet music, with a treble clef and a 4/4 time signature to the left. To the right, the dialogue, spoken by Bocchi, says "O-Oh, Kita, hi! I didn't see you there... How are you doing today?"

Finally, at the bottom, there are buttons for options. "Log," "Save," "Load," "Skip," "Settings," and "Auto," each preceded by a corresponding icon.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

Many things are being destroyed & the news of it is a psychological & political onslaught.

So it’s important that you create things.

It can be art, cookies, a community pantry, a garden, a mask bloc. It can be beautiful, practical, silly. Just create & share.

It’ll do your brain & the world good.

A comic where a woman is forcing kiwi to sign a contract.

The woman says.
“YES DOLL! SIGN THAT CONTRACT AND BECOME WHAT YOU WHERE ALWAYS MEANT TO BE
MY PROPERTY!!!”

Legal Eagle appears and says

“Actually, here's why that probably wouldn't hold up in court.”

And the girls respond
“LEGAL EAGLE!!!”

BlueSky does not currently have advertising or any real monetization. Doing a boycott/blackout will have absolutely no impact on them due to this, other than users who would be impacted by the censoring doing the work for them.

The real way to impact would be to post more. Trend. Make them moderate

bsky ceo's crashout shows they can not handle simple criticism, so keep doing it. bsky wants the marginalized people that built this site to shut up or leave, don't give them an easy way out
