That's right, my free covid science zine is BACK for 2025 baybee, because respiratory viruses sure didn't go anywhere! Biggest change: I simplified ALL the dang text to make everything easier to follow. READ ON to learn WHY WE MASK, then print & share to your heart's delight!

You’ve all heard of metal type but what about gourd type (yes this was printed with movable type that was made out of the dried inside matter of a gourd)

SAG-AFTRA Video Game Strike suspended at noon PT today. All SAG-AFTRA members are instructed to return to work on productions under the IMA, including work promoting or publicizing projects produced under the IMA. READ MORE: www.sagaftra.org/sag-aftra-vi...

If I stop calling out transphobes then they might stop coming after me, but they will never leave trans people alone. Bigots make this space unsafe for everyone in the LGBTQ+ community so I wish more creators - especially bigger ones - would speak up. youtu.be/Yd_QPn-DCBc #VTuber #trans

Excellent thread.

Even when I was a kid, it took me like 5 minutes of research to find out trans people don't have an inherent advantage in sports, and that was during my "piece of shit" era. It sucks this myth persists

It's exhausting.

Apparently, because it’s 2020 again, I need to start a thread on police violence targeting journalists in the US. So, here we go: 1. Australian journalist Lauren Tomasi shot by police officer with less lethal munition. m.youtube.com/watch?v=yrFJ...

Zero hyperbole here And now, breaking news from r/SubredditDrama that reveals what looks very much like a concerted "protesters against ICE & cops kidnapping, beating, shooting, gassing & trampling their neighbors are the REAL violent ones" disinfo opp by Palantir www.reddit.com/r/SubredditD...

Don’t recommend breathing this air but everyone seems fine with it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

⚠️ Please help me report, pedophile/incest accounts popped up on my discovery page. @/loveitpervy.bsky.social @/sluttygirl.bsky.social and many more, I assume in their mutuals. @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app can you help report these individuals to the appropriate authorities because this is terrifying.

Every organization that chooses silence in this moment is on the side of fascism.

DING DONG!! DING DONG!!!

So looks like Carney's thus-far secret deal with Trump might involve allowing the US to pillage resources in Canada. And liberals will still insist after this that Mark Carney is standing up for "sovereignty."

Here’s another pretty rose I saw the other day.

This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

Wikipedia wanted to use AI summaries at the top of article pages. Editors said please please don't www.404media.co/wikipedia-pa...

ICE agents pulled this guy out of his car and beat the shit out of him, putting him in the E.R. Then they pulled him out of the hospital saying he was a "violent gang member." (He's a Doordash driver with only a traffic ticket on his record.) Now he's just...gone. What a nightmare.

neo-Nazi Ryan Sanchez and co were at the protest in L.A. last night. notice the knife in his right pocket. he apparently tried to infiltrate protest lines and take video of people.

NEW: After firing expert scientists on the CDC's vaccine advisory committee, RFK Jr. has named their replacements. The new committee contains many figures known for spreading disinformation about vaccines and COVID including Robert Malone and Martin Kulldorff. This is bad.

One question on a lot of people’s minds: How do the recent immigration protests compare to the George Floyd protests? Black Lives Matter leader Baba Akili shares his wisdom. ~ @shoton35mm.bsky.social

We all wonder what we can bring to the table in these trying times, but each of us has our own particular set of skills.

In the Disney lawsuit, 10 pages are dedicated to citing the work we did. In pursuit of this evidence, Midjourney banned me 3 times and updated their ToS. The first ban encouraged me to dig a lot deeper, so I'd like to congratulate CEO David Holz on his massive unforced error.

It's been way too long since I've painted a lightsaber. Been sitting on this one for a while; stoked to finally be able to post it! Asajj Ventress for the Star Wars: Legion miniature game. She's so awful, I love her <3 Many thanks to AD Preston Stone! ©LFL ©AMG #starwars #clonewars #art

Hey y’all! This is a semi-positive update. With your help, some understanding from our attorney, and unexpected mercy from a Black court clerk, we were able to close some of the gap on that bond and buy ourselves some time (about three days' worth).

Backlash is the only thing that works, here. Without backlash, automated, unstoppable lie generation will seep into and infect every single space that human-created information exists

1. The US Transgender Survey has finally been released, and the results are stunning. - <1% of people are less satisfied after HRT. - The most common reason for detransition, pausing transition, or stopping transition is transphobia. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

still the truest thing I’ve ever posted

“Pro-vaccine groups” are not a special interest group to be skeptical of they are ALL OF THE FUCKING MAINSTREAM SCIENTISTS AND DOCTORS

1/3 Neutralizing tear gas canisters is a hazardous action that should only be attempted if absolutely necessary, as it exposes you to high concentrations of gas & the risk of burns. If you must intervene, here are the most widely used & documented methods using a traffic cone or a waterproof bag:

When I heard the mom of a trans girl say the night her daughter came out to her was the first time she'd ever seen her child happy, I knew it was a story I needed to share. These are the stories the public isn't hearing. An honor to get to report on 3 family's journeys for @teenvogue.com.

If you can, get vaccines you haven't gotten yet asap. And if you have children/youth, get them the HPV vaccine while you can, as anything to do with reproductive health (especially specifically for girls/women) is always at high risk to be taken away.

I'm trying to comment on this without being hyperbolic. As a manager, insisting on deadlines that you and your ICs straight up don't believe are possible almost GUARANTEES that a) their work will be thrown out or completely redone and b) you will put them in danger of burning out.

So we got sold out. Straight up, Trump threatened us, and Carney gave away our sovereignty.

We have an oligarchy that does not want us to survive. FEMA must help businesses more than citizens because they did nothing when I lost everything when Greens Bayou flooded and I lost everything in 2001.

Oh look, another company selling out to gen-AI just so they can take the money and fuck off into the ether, thousands of user contributions be damned. I wish the assholes who decided this a very loose staples in their carpets.

This is illegal. This is illegal. Did I mention this is illegal?
