Sooooo, we can just... take land back?
Trump talks about Denmark and Greenland just now: "The fact that they landed a boat there 500 years ago doesn't mean that they own the land."

Over the holiday period (not that I have been on holiday but still) I have tried to read as much as possible.
I haven't finished a single book. Not one kept my interest, all tossed on the forever unfinished pile.
I can't concentrate. Have I been through so much recently that I can't even read now?

Lmao apparently people near me are freaking out about a non binary teacher
And I am watching the entire community come together to dunk on the much smaller group of transphobic dipshits and it is DELICIOUS
The local newspaper even snarkily wrote about them and I am CRYING

They are hunting wine moms now, because the thought of middle aged women not knowing their place enrages them.
The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

When I was a struggling new author in 2010, Tim met with me to discuss the story of his aunt Renee Shadbolt, who was one of the real-life characters I was writing into fiction for Blood in the Valencian Soil. I couldn't have written the book without precious family tales. RIP
One of the coolest photos ever taken in New Zealand. RIP a true original.

Grok does nothing but follow instructions given by MEN
BREAKING: X’s chatbot Grok isn’t just making AI porn deepfakes, it’s now making Nazi AI porn deepfakes, undressing women and showing them wearing “swastika bikinis”. Many of these women are Jewish, including a recently deceased Holocaust survivor.

My local EB Games is an all-women store. It's a great place to shop. This really sucks
I'm not surprised a physical-media games store is struggling, kinda amazing they outlasted the chain record stores and video stores
Still, awful to see more people thrown out of work right now

Tell him after you sign the divorce papers
This Christmas I've cooked, cleaned and run around after our entire extended family. My other half has done fuck all, except sit and complete a very tricky 1000 piece jigsaw. Unfortunately when they get to the end, they'll find it's now a 999 piece jigsaw. I ate a piece in spite

This will be a serious news discussion for the next month, as will the price of school uniforms, as if we don't hear about them every year
I think AoNZ needs to move its summer holidays 4 - 6 weeks later than they currently are.
This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

Any takers on the New Zealand situation? Any journos asked the Chief Censor?
Not even the prompts. If you are a Twitter user in the UK and Twitter sticks a Grok CSAM image in your feed for WHATEVER reason, well congrats your device just downloaded child porn. And you are legally responsible for that.
Even if nobody wants to take action against Musk for building a CSAM generator, there are people using it who are based in the UK and those prompts are absolutely something that would get you on the sex offender's register. Absolutely no justification not to try to identify and prosecute users.
