after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US.

MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training.

FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

After he left, I turned to my roommate and asked “did he seriously just compare me to Captain Kirk?”

ellie the asexy librarian @theasexylibrarian.bsky.social · 4d

Unfortunately, he needed up finding us inside and proceeded to try and flirt with me. He eventually said “sorry I’m gushing. You are just so pretty. I feel like a fanboy meeting William Shatner for the first time. I’m gonna leave you alone now.”

We were VERY weirded out by him and were able to get away once inside. That’s when my roommate made the comment that he looked like a pocket sized Charles Manson.

He kept making comments about how he liked my haircut and trying to ask where we went to school and other stuff.

My roommate and I were waiting in line to get into the venue and this tiny guy kept chatting with us. (He was truly tiny- I’m 5’10 and my roommate was 5’8 and he was at least 6 inches shorter than either of us)

Picture it March 2011: 21 year-old Ellie had recently shaved her head for Saint Bald-rick’s day and I was going to a Celtic punk concert with some friends in Lexington.

I got reminded of it at work tonight, so who would like to hear college Ellie’s story about getting hit on by pocket Charles Manson and being compared to Willam Shatner?

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Zelda has been sounding the alarm on the dangers of AI for YEARS, long before the technology got to where it is now, because she's:

1) brilliant (go watch Lisa Frankenstein).
2) ridiculously smart.
3) experienced first-hand how fucking WEIRD people are about her Dad.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

A new flotilla is just days away from reaching Palestinian territorial waters, sailing to break Israel's illegal and deadly blockade, and to send urgently needed medics and journalists to Gaza.

The flotilla is currently 200 nautical miles from Gaza.

“can people be normal on ao3?” no. that’s quite literally the point. that website was created specifically to give freaks who like freaky shit a place to publish their works. if freaks liking freaky shit makes you uncomfortable, you can choose a different website.

What do you think she was trying to convey with this t-shirt?
