btw the regulatory standards bill will make it so corporations can sue the NZ govt for making environmental protections that hurt company profits.

This is all very simple. Let the world's two biggest babies fight and visibly construct and build a world without them. Anybody who tries to welcome Elon Musk, the world's most preeminent ratfucker, into their political party should be put in a dog crate until 2029.

This is particularly fucked up bc the article notes that there’s no data to back that up (in fact, what data there is on this shows mixed results). So this is telling us more about these dudes, who apparently choose to be violently abusive and to believe that it’s the best choice.

Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month. Worked on novel antivirals.

No cops at Pride includes the cop in your head who tells you to police other queer people. Learn the difference between being uncomfortable and being harmed. Deal with your discomfort on your own time. Pride is for the community, not just you.

when i was a junior coder, i was self-conscious about not really being a touch typist. but after even a couple years of actual experience, i quickly realized that the speed at which i can cause code to show up in a file is never ever the limiting factor in my productivity.

I'm not a political scientist but if you're advice to the Democratic Party is pushing out unions, immigrants, and queers then I think there's already a party for that

Library employee here, we were told no Pride displays would be allowed this year, called too risky (small town, right wing area). I still found ways to incorporate it subtly. We love to hear support for our displays, and I still run one year round in our YA area.

I needed to hear this today and I’m guessing someone else does too: If you’re having trouble eating (for any reason) some food is better than no food. Cereal, half of a pb&j, baby carrots and ranch, ice cream - any of those is better than no food.

My favorite story about stuff like this: There's a booming economy in counterfeit Marlboro cigarettes. At one point, like half of all marlboros in NYC were fake. A Chinese factory exactly mimicked a Marlboro factory, literally all the workers were convinced they were working for Marlboro.

The plagiarism machine is also a homogenous slurry machine. It shits out the media equivalent of pink meat slime, the textual equivalent of heavily surgically modified ethnic ambiguity that produces influencer faces that are impossible to distinguish from each other.

Democratic strategists are founding a think tank meant to push Democrats away from supporting trans rights (and into losing elections). The article dogwhistles trans rights as "interest groups," as if trans people are an oil lobbying group, but it's obvious what they mean.

I would assume that someone placed on this list threatened to sue for being described as a trans or homophobe, and bsky instantly folded, just as they did with Singal’s threats.

I just noticed that a major blocklist of transphobes that I have been using has been turned off & hidden by the Bluesky admins. Note that the 2nd gif says the name or description violates community guidelines, but there is nothing here that does. Care to review this decision, @safety.bsky.app?

New Jersey peeps, early voting starts today! If you aren't a registered dem, you can sign up your polling place and vote. I voted for Fulop and hope you will too because Mikie is too moderate and she already f-ed over trans kids in the House with her votes.

There's something you're all not seeing here. 1.) Numerical Superiority won this battle. No one is armed here except the local banditry. 2.) There is strength in numbers. 3.) A crushing numerical advantage is enough to break the backs and the morale of the enemy.

My home of Missoula just voted to establish the pride flag as an official government flag of the city, thereby circumventing the state's asinine pride flag ban. 🏳️‍🌈 Missoula is once again showing how to fight back against policies that seek to erase the LGBTQ community.

you guys are being very cynical about this but the real explanation is that bears and Bigfoot are buddies. They like to hang out and do stuff together

Kinda wish people weren't so rude about people "interpreting episode 4 wrong." Like it was left open to interpretation for a reason. You're allowed to take away whatever speaks to you, and everyone else is allowed to take away whatever speaks to them. It's just a cartoon at the end of the day.

This is why we march. Why we have to. Why we can’t not do it. This is why #Pride is important. It’s not a fucking party. It is and always has been a protest. But we just dance while we do it. Because the dance is why we fight. It’s what we fight for. This is enraging and heartbreaking 💔💔💔

Eternal reminder that if your family isn’t smart enough to love you because you’re queer, I AM YOUR WEIRD UNCLE NOW. I have the dreaded ‘tism and you will never be free of me sending you tiny rainbow pebbles. I AM the rainbow menace and I love you, even if you prefer DEVO over Talking Heads.

Bluesky, unlike X, doesn’t punish posts with links. Which means there is no good reason (and frankly no good excuse) for posts with screengrabs of articles that don’t link to them. It’s bad for readers and bad for the writers whose work you’re using. Posting text? Link to where you got it.

[TW, hate crime, animal cruelty] If you are going to talk about Jonathan Joss's death this Pride, I ask that you report it as a homophobic hate crime that occurred after he found the skull of his beloved pet in his mailbox. Because that's what happened.

is it time to bust out my "bigfoot is bears" photo collection again? if your mental image of a bear is a thick-furred, fat glossy male bear in autumn, you're probably not prepared for how weird their proportions can look in spring, or when walking upright, like they frequently do.

Respectfully, and speaking as someone who for years did one good whack before blocking, no you don't. That's mindspace they've taken from you, and attention you've given to them, and both of those are seen from others, none of whom benefit. Consign the trolls to the cornfield the second they appear.
