so after being bedridden for 16months due to a hernia, I've finally got my surgery!
now I'm bedridden for recovery, which is at least a great improvement.
I'm still broke though, so if you've got a couple dollars, it'd help me get through this last stretch. Thanks so much!

Kazem is my friend and has been since April. This time last year, I began sharing and donating to fundraisers for people in Gaza. I have gotten to know the names and faces of many of them, but Kazem is the one I am lucky enough to call a friend. Please help him.

Section 230 serves no useful purpose? Except for the fact that it’s vital for free speech on the internet!
Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

Behind almost every AI is exploited workers pretending to be AI
“The work was emotionally exhausting, with chat users confiding intimate details about their real-life relationships, as well as their own emotional trauma, falsely believing they were talking to an unfeeling AI chatbot.”

46 years in jail... for posting. Fucking hell.

“Busbas” gets 46 years total for posts he made on Facebook "defaming" the monarchy. This is on top of 4 years he was already serving & still has one case outstanding.

Not justice, its blatent oppression.

I've been doing info material for the shingles vaccine during my day job

YOU DO NOT WANT SHINGLES. GET THAT VACCINE IF YOU'RE ELIGIBLE.
PSA: if anyone in your life is trying to dissuade you from getting the shingles shot, you should probably assume that person hates you, and wants you to suffer. There is literally no other explanation.

Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.
I am baffled by this because I have had so many friends with shingles and NONE of them made it sound fun. Not one. A vaccine that made me absolutely miserable for 48 hours would still be a huge improvement over the mildest case of shingles I've heard of. (Also it made me tired for 1 day.)

each of us contains the full genetic instructions for both testosterone & estrogen driven hormone loadouts (along with varying combos of both)

this can be changed at any time. our genes will even start expressing themselves differently within ~3-6 months.

this is an existential threat to fascists.

This thing took so much work, from so many people - RPGs have so many little working parts, and we did so much to try to make this world feel alive. The team is just vibrating right now, seeing how this all goes, but for now it's great to just have it out there, in people's hands.
