Hasan Piker is lying when he says Kaya got caught on something...

Here's a photo another person found while freezing the frames from the livestream... He definitely shocked his dog to keep her on screen longer and score him views.

Hasan pikers dog, kaya, facing away and wearing a thick collar that resembles a shock collar

the city of los angeles burned in january in part because of a man who couldn’t stop generating images of burning cities on ChatGPT, and then after he lit the fire he asked if the fire he started was his fault

some of tonight's sketches, figuring out Sigs final monster form and I felt like drawing maria being maria doing her favorite activity. Drinking the blood of hot taken women or something

#art #wip #oc #ocsky #originalcharacter #angelsandvergazos #vampireoc #monsteroc

A WIP painting of Sig's final monster form. the horse skull grew bone horns that kinda look like a mohawk. the horse skull grew more fangs, flesh and pulsing veins wraps around the skull and her head, her eye peaks in between the mouth. there is a weird growth growing from the back of her head onto the neck securing the skull.

a wip sketch of maria drinking alejandra's blood, she is behind grabbing her neck and arm, she is licking the bleeding bite wound while staring at someone...probably chela if we are being honest and chela is probably turned on and scared at the same time lmao. Also they be nekkid

Also, "a bunch of stickers" does not cut it, please imagine being on the phone with someone and explaining what's in the picture, like we did in school, I promise it's worth the extra 2 minutes 🥹

Bloomberg research found wholesale electricity up ~270% in areas near data centers

It doesn't seem like nearly enough people are taking it seriously

One A.I. image isn't too much energy, but 5 million videos? Per day/hour/minute whatever. It's not sustainable

AI Data Centers Are Sending Power Bills Soaring

Wholesale electricity costs as much as 267% more than it did five years ago in areas near data centers. That’s being passed on to customers.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said “no one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

I guess it's Prime Day(s) again, so here are some options if you'd rather not help Jeff Bezos grow even richer. 🧵

First, a couple of Starter Packs of Indie Bookstores to support. (If you are or know of an indie bookstore w/ a Bluesky account that's not listed, let me know.)

Hear ye hear ye a message of hope and inspiration from our courageous leader in exile, Link. May all his loyal followers take heart!

I appreciate all the people showing love and support to me. I’m so grateful honestly. It means a lot. The ban isn’t that big of a deal for me. I think it was wrong and the explanation was bullshit. But that’s ok and I accept. Social media comes and goes. I’m grateful for all the connections I was able to make and all the people I get to be connected with off Bluesky. More importantly, the world needs more people to give a fuck. More people to give a fuck about Palestinians, more people to give a fuck about disabled folks, more people to give a fuck about our queer and trans siblings, more people to give a fuck about Black liberation. The world, and Bluesky, is full of bootlickers who will do anything to avoid doing anything to upset the status quo. These people are cowards groveling to those in power in hopes of protection. I just hope people continue to show love and care and kindness. Mutual aid is so important. Give when you can, boost when you can. We only survive this together.
