I made another new #DnD character... Meet Terra Nephiline, an Earth Genasi Oath of the Ancients Paladin. I made her to be a backup character for a long running campaign where I now play a level 9 Drow/Tiefling Swashbuckler Rogue/Warlock so quite a different vibe and alignment!

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Teen Warned Not To Accept Group Chat Invites From National Security Advisors She Doesn’t Know

Onze zelfvernietiging zit in de weigering platformen als Insta, WhatsApp en Facebook te verlaten archive.is/HE63f

I’ve seen video of IDF bombing Nasser Hospital, where a friend of mine is on a humanitarian mission to treat patients. My friend survived the bombing but a teen patient he treated and who was set to go home today was murdered. Are you warmongers not tired and sick of this yet? This horror

She's got a point... #TransRights #JurassicPark #Simpsons

I went for a little Sunday morning drive this morning, to get some more miles under my belt to familiarize myself with my new car. The weather was kinda crumby: overcast with light drizzle... But what better way to show off a Cloud Blue car than under a cloud blue sky? #Volvo #EX30

> Maar als alle positieve onderzoeken rond de transgenderzorg vrijwel altijd worden genegeerd terwijl de paar negatieve wel overal nieuwskoppen krijgen, is dat dan representatief? www.bnnvara.nl/joop/artikel...

Ook hierom sta ik morgen op de Dam: vluchtende mensen worden vermoord in mijn naam, van mijn geld en zogenaamd om mij te beschermen. Het moet stoppen.

Bye-bye #Swasticar, hello #Volvo!

My assigned sex at birth was a commodity that was bought and paid for. So when I was feminine as a child and then turned out to be transgender, I was going against the product that was sold.

So a user comes in with an #OnlyFans laptop. (Motherboard had died in such a way that all the laptop did was run the fan at max RPM whenever you plugged in external power or pressed the power button - nothing else...) #TechSupportLife

Mexico and Canada should both ban X and Facebook. As well as every other democracy in the world that wants to stay in existence.

British PM Starmer hugged Zelenskyy. That’s how bad U.S. foreign policy has gotten—it’s driving the Brits to physical displays of emotion.

Very handy indeed...

Each and every person who normalized the idea that this is a "public square" and therefore all people have an open invitation to be an ass in the replies of strangers clearly never learned how to respect anyone but themselves.

Opinie Marc van der Sterren: 'Nu de wereld tussen waarheid en fictie steeds diffuser wordt, werkt ook de agrolobby steeds rücksichtsloser'

Extra, extra! Een nieuwe aflevering van Ruimtezoekers! Deze keer spreek ik met fotograaf en beeldend kunstenaar Çiğdem Yüksel over de kracht van beeldvorming en het innemen van ruimte, zowel in archieven als in het dagelijks leven.

Apocalypse Now?

Appearing today in The Week:

ErinReed [Feb 20] -- Despite ferocious govt assault the US is queerer than ever. Gallup finds nearly 1-in-ten adults are LGBTQ+ (9.3%), nearly double 2020. Trans is up 50% to 1.3% in just 2 yrs from 0.9% in 2023. And among Gen Z, nearly 1-in-4 (23%) are LGBTQ+! [@rikiwilchins.bsky.social‬]

BBB en SGP openen aanval op abortus en zetten vrouwenrechten verder op losse schroeven

Iemand met een beperking langs een andere ingang binnenloodsen, is geen toegankelijkheid. Een begeleider nodig hebben om ergens binnen te komen, is geen toegankelijkheid. Je komst vooraf aan moeten kondigen, is geen toegankelijkheid. Zeg het voort.

Exactly what I was thinking might happen. Their anti-trans animus is infecting other cases. Trump is biting off too much too fast. My hope is that all of this factors into some of the fence-sitting justices on SCOTUS for big upcoming cases.

Waarom sociaal-democraten en liberalen weigeren fascisme te benoemen www.doorbraak.eu/waarom-socia... "... ik vrees dus ook de dag dat ze dat daadwerkelijk gaan doen. Want dat is waarschijnlijk de dag dat ze erkennen dat ze buitenspel zijn gezet, en geen enkele tegenmacht meer hebben." #Fascisme

A Missouri Representative has filed a bill to track pregnancies in the state. HB 807 will: "Maintain a central registry of each expectant mother who is at risk for seeking an abortion of her unborn child and make the same available to a prospective adoptive parent who has completed screenings."

Now this is some solid IT support...

How did you guess that #purple is my favourite colour?

Waarom sociaal-democratie niet zonder kolonialisme kan www.doorbraak.eu/waarom-socia... "Daarentegen kunnen de kernstaten thuis mooie mensenrechten hebben omdat ze het geweld dat het kapitalisme vereist, externaliseren." #Kapitalisme #Kolonialisme #LinksePartijen #Militarisme

Over in the #Fediverse I moved my account from a Mastodon instance (todon.nl) to a Sharkey instance (blahaj.zone). The process is not straightforward, but it works, and I have retained all of my follows and followers. It should be that easy to switch between any social media platforms!

"It's very convenient - if you are a centibililonaire - to support fascism, because what fascism will do is make the state dysfunctional. It will open the state up to you." Absolute must see: @timothysnyder.bsky.social bij @vprotegenlicht.bsky.social !

I like that he posted a picture of a print-out of the email.
