Something we don't talk about often enough in the creation of a "safe space", is that safe spaces aren't conflict free. They are conflict forward, with boundaries that by necessity bar entrance to people who will jeopardize that space. You can't sand the corners off the world, you carve space out.

Amazon worker: "They're being petty right now. But that's not going to stop us" ✊🏽🔥🔥🔥 The water system of the Amazon warehouse Queens, NY gushes onto the striking workers' picket line. The company is intentionally flooding the area in below freezing temps. #WorkersUnite #UnionStrong

If you are interested in public education, bargaining for the common good & unions— pay attention to Chicago. As educators are demanding housing for our students, green schools, smaller classes, & more student supports to name a few. The pushback is fierce #edusky inthesetimes.com/article/chic...

It’s not just over his views, to be clear. The man coordinates harassment to direct toward trans people. He is active.m. His views aren’t some passive interior thing we’re trying to thought-police. He demonstrably aims to hurt trans people, literally and materially.

Well... PSA to all the fantasy artists out there, don't work for ImagineFX anymore. They've signed a deal to let OpenAI train on their content.

do you also sometimes dream of being semi-rich just so that you can donate to, commission or shop from every artist you see online

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy. It’s not rocket science.

Every single time Universal Basic Income is tried, it is a success and helps people. But it would make assholes very, very angry and so we need about 300 more case studies before we choose to help people. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Yearly reminder to not donate to the Salvation Army due to their exclusionary practices towards lgbt people and their coercive religious requirements; but also don't harass the bell ringers, salvation army abuses loopholes to pay disabled people far below minimum wage in abusive/dangerous conditions

I'm seeing a LOT of new accounts on here being transphobes, racists, or explicit nazis. Do not engage with their posts, do not quote dunk. This is what they WANT, this is what Twitter rewarded them for. No amount of wit is going to get to them, it's not worth it. Block, starve them.

If we lose the internet archive we are in serious trouble. They are the only public repository of most digital media (and some physical through scans) - like @frankcifaldi.bsky.social says, 89% of all video games are not currently available to purchase.

“One of the things I do is frame autism not purely in a clinical or self-help context, but in a social justice context,” Silberman told the Guardian in 2015. “I came to it thinking I was going to study a disorder. But what I ended up finding was a civil rights movement being born.”

If you're using generative AI for your personal game dev (or other) project, (1) STOP and (2) REMOVE IT FROM YOUR PROJECT FILES COMPLETELY. At best it was never copyrightable; now it could get YOU in copyright trouble and those fines are a-whole-year's-pay-PER-OFFENSE huge.

please know Apple takes this cut from ALL subscriptions you set up on your phone — either you’re getting charged more or the ppl you’re trying to give money to get paid less. Folks on tumblr are passing around this Hank Green video, which is worth a watch if it’s the first you’re hearing about this.

Call your reps today to tell them you support this and expect them to vocally support these efforts as well as AOC’s articles of impeachment for the compromised justices. It only takes 5 minutes, and you often don’t even have to speak to a real human! (Negative/doomer replies will be blocked)

Project 2025 wants to put Hyun Sook and I, and anyone else who writes books they falsely scream "pornography" at, in prison. They want the teachers and librarians who shelve our books to be registered sex offenders. I know what books they consider "porn," because my book banners are on their board.

Exactly. Literally just be kind and supportive of the people/creatives you like, share their stuff, comment nice things when you can. TL;DR: engage with the community.
