Seriously though, I'm already quite excited for Wandance now having seen episode one. I really hope it goes places and digs into disability topics in a cool way! :neocat_aww:

THIS. IS. ANIME.

#anime #wandance

A screenshot from an anime called Wandance that just straight up shows the music video for Scatman. It has the lyrics "If the Scatman can do it so can you" as subtitles in both English and Japanese.

So the only mainstream kinda TV I tend to get into these days is watching new seasons of Survivor and The Amazing Race. I've watched em since season one, with my family back then, and it always makes me feel a bit happy seeing them now. (Plus, I do rather like Survivor, I admit.)

But today […]

It’s time we, as a nation, come together and finally demand accountability from the Japanese government for the unspeakable crimes committed by Sonic the Hedgehog. :neocat_pensive:

A screenshot from an old anime that looks grainy as it was taken from a VHS. It shows a boy playing ping pong while a girl glows white in the corner. The subtitles read, Genocide Sonic!

To celebrate international lesbian day, write a poem so full of palpable yearning for a girl that the very place you live becomes a term for loving girls.

What, you DON'T have a toilet specially made for the pretty young ladies chained up in your house? How irresponsible random manga butler! :neocat_shocked:

#manga

A panel from a manga showing a flustered butler carting a special toilet around. He is saying, "Of course she has to, even a pretty young lady like her... But I can't believe they have a toilet just for people who are locked up in chains..."

The older furries in the audience are seeing war flashbacks from back in the day on SoFurry reading this one.

@[email protected] I will echo this same offer for up to two communities! I'll do the install, maintenance, upkeep, and keep the lights on. I have the automation to be able to run any of these:
- Mastodon
- Pixelfed
- GoToSocial
- Sharkey
- Akkoma
- Bonfire

And for that matter if anyone […]

I have an offer to make: do you want to run an instance on the fediverse for a group that's underrepresented here?

I'll pay the bills. Period.

I'll do admin if needed (software updates and the like). But you decide what kind of community you want it to be, so you put together the mod team.

DM me.

Hey there! I'm one of the blind folks who read alt text on here. I'd like to say thank you for adding that so that I can also enjoy images of cartoon animals. A little effort from you means a world of difference for people like me

fedi's culture of accessibility for disabled, visually impaired, and mentally ill people is honestly one of the best things about this place - and I don't want that to change. disabled and mad folks will never be a priority to corporate interests. if you can't practice a little disability […]

Folks here that are spiking the ball and proclaiming Mastodon the winner merely because Xchitter and Bluesky have been revealed to be tolerant of malicious racism and transphobia, might want to check their own mirrors and review their own actions.

Also, a needed reminder: Mastodon is NOT the […]

It's that time in Fall where I gotta make sure the list of seasonal anime I'm watching is kept to a minimum.

I've decided to ask myself some simple questions while watching shows, like:

* Would I rather be watching an all time classic like Slam Dunk than watching (new random sports anime)? […]

So... I have learned there are pins for at least 2 and 3 years of Cinemark employment that match this style.

I have also found someone who could sell me a full set, 1, 2, & 3 together.

So combined with the 1 pin I already own...

I could make Cinemark say 1312. :neocat_catmode […]

I think I got a bunch of sewing to do. Might finally patch up my tank tops like I've kept promising myself I would.

[IT GETS EVEN WORSE! Bluesky Auto-Labeling Disabled People As Porn]

Fun news! The AI moderator they use that auto-labels disabled people as pornography on Bluesky? It's connected to an AI image and video generator!

So all art and videos posted on Bluesky not […]

[Original post on sakurajima.moe]

Skeet from sentient piece of feces Aaron Rodericks that reads: thehive.ai evaluates all images posted to the site. We don't actually provide any input.

A post showing that the company responsible for AI moderation on Bluesky has an AI image AND video generator. Seeing as how it gets access to every single picture/video posted here, I'm sure there's a special contract to avoid them using that data! Lol, lmao even.
