Hi friends! I heard from the dentist, I can get my teeth issues fixed in December, but I need this gfm to fill up some more so I can get everything in order.

It'd be nice to be able to eat food without pain, tbh.

Kei trucks are banned in most US states not because of lobbying by American truck manufacturers, but because the government knows if they allow them on the streets, all depressed laborers under the age of 40 will use them to get isekai'd to a fantasy world governed by an obtuse leveling system.

it shifts by the day and by the post. he is yet to publish his full theory of everything that he constantly hints at, but there is much "and now unlike a cis male like me, trans women..." rhetoric

a lesbian who is a literal sword but hates being used for violence x a lesbian who thrives off thrusting her sword into the hearts of her enemies and then licks the blood off afterwards.

the sword is very conflicted as she hates the violence but god the way the second woman licks her and whispers…

The only correct take on a fundamentally anti-human technology.

Screenshot of David Simon interview
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

OK it’s a given that the deployment of national guardsmen in US States is unconscionable and the way these ICE agents are attempting to round up actual American citizens is horrendous but look at these hopeless, ill equipped, often heavily overweight incompetent men - Trumplandia.

One of the reasons they're having trouble concocting a Left Wing Terrorism epidemic is basically nobody in this country has ever met a left wing person. You might as well say we're being invaded by the smurfs

no they're LITERALLY exaggerating this issue. there is absolutely no data backing up their claims. ffs just say that!!

NBC news: The discussions come as Trump has sought to deploy National Guard troops in several major cities — including Los Angeles, Chicago and Portland, Oregon — saying they’re needed to reduce crime and protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials from protesters. Critics have said that the Trump administration is exaggerating issues in those cities.

this is the guy responsible for the decimation of trans healthcare

this is a good example of how ppl refuse to acknowledge that transphobia causes problems

if there'd been pushback on him then we wouldn't be here now

the government used us trans ppl as a blueprint now they're using it on others

feels like yet again time to mention that the *videogames* industry (that's a creative industry, which people do creative degrees in) brings in more than twice the amount to the British economy as the fishing and steel industries *combined*

Naomi Alderman @naomialderman.bsky.social · 1d

I cannot understand what these people think the purpose of human life is?

It is *not* "pursue joy, deal justly, love well, try to understand as much and see as much of this beautiful world and of the deepness, richness and variety of human culture and experience as you can before you die"?

Tim Worthington @outonbluesix.bsky.social · 1d

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

In my previous department, a breach of this nature would have been grounds to revoke or deny tenure. A student committing this error would be dismissed without hesitation. It isn't just harmful to the patients, it undermines the process of inquiry itself, and the results produced have ZERO validity.

From the very beginning, no matter how polite the language to refer to us has become over the years, we are seen as a pathology to curtail, limit, and frankly eliminate entirely if at all possible.

Harms against us are routine because our existence is seen as intolerable by cis society.
