RE: Code Cylinders Ultimately, given that Star Wars was a bunch of Samurai Movies in space, it seems fitting that the Empire's entire security state revolves around the digital equivalent of an Inkan.

fun fact: this issue, specifically, is why the majority of space programs abandoned methane in favor of liquid oxygen/hydrogen fuel systems in the mid 70's.

The idea that we need to be super guarded about what we say because new neo-Nazis are here is kinda funny to me. First, don't fedpost generally. Second, feds are gonna make up shit if they're motivated enough. Third... *gestures at all my posts*

The deployment of terrorism as a term for anyone who resists the state in any way good or bad has left people unprepared to deal with enemy that functions by deploying fear and terror and despair as its weapons Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

cute, remind me again which of the forever ears after world war 2 was ever actually congressionally enacted? oh, right.... none of them.... seems topical idk

I think a lot of journalists and politicians thought that coming to Bluesky would get them praised and worshipped like it was 2017 Twitter and the fact that didn’t instantly happen has absolutely broken their brains

The day before they ruled that banning trans children's healthcare isn't discrimination Wake up. They are trying to wipe trans people out. Stop calling people hyperbolic and fucking look at it

I am so fucking sick of toxic position city in the face of a movement that wants to kill my kids, coming from people who don't have remotely the same stakes. this whole thread is just straight up head in the sand abuse by neglect and dereliction.

Reminder that most "red" states have a sizable population who're gerrymandered out of power. Support those who resist!

tbh i am way more interested in queer lives than queer theory

this should say "long discredited, and verifiably untrue miasma theory" and "scientifically tested and verified germ theory" because that's a factual representation of the theories in currently scientific understanding, this headline leaves room for reviving the supposed legitimacy of miasma theory.

We outnumber the Nazis so massively all they have is a projection of power using terror and violence. If we can stay the course we will win. But it will get very scary first.

straight to jail. And yes, this is a common argument against letting her have any agency. It is also used as jusitification for dismissing all of her advocated causes out of hand.

i frontlined a lot under trump 1 but now i’m immunocompromised and recovering from bottom surgery and can do that less. these things really matter. jail support is SO important - taking care of people who put themselves in the way of arrest is how we sustain a movement. and it’s very low risk

“Bluesky is an echo chamber” X is currently overrun with users sexually harassing random women using the site owner’s built-in AI to edit their photos to look like there’s semen on their faces

This is a bad sign the occupyDemocrats accounts are now starting to say that any kind of property destruction is the sign of far right infiltration of their events This kind of broken windows thinking is what got us here in part and must be pointed out as the status quo mantinence propaganda it is.

quick note but the worst thing you can do with a narcissistic bully is ignoring them. you need to stand up to them and make sure they experience consequences for harming whomever they have harmed, otherwise you are actively enabling them.

I love that every time I post I get a listifications message telling me a rando I've never interacted with has blocked me.

not believing that warzone doctors can determine caliber by wound profile is like saying that a master electrician can't determine wire gauge by sleeve, it's literally required knowledge to exist in the field. also it's easy to determine sniper vs infantry rounds bc idf use NATO cal. ammo.

I was going to talk about this. Actually, a lot of Tiktok encourages this behavior, and I don't care for it at all. Do not corner randos on the street and yell questions on them. You should be allowed to punch people in the mouth if they do that.

A community that is willing to fight together and for one another wins against fascism. Fascists are cowards. We can and must make these forces afraid Solidarity to all those on the ground in San Diego fighting back ice and the Gestapo.

interestingly enough I wrote an essay on how the "masculinity crisis" is at least in part due to men being socially conditioned to not getting railed in dresses. anyway everyone needs a good summer dress and Garak suggested some cool shit. I guess also let me know if you want the essay.

once again for the people in the back, there are more evangelical christian zionists in the US than there are Jews in the world.

just a small note on history, but the last time Christians consolidated political power they collapsed civilization.

I think we need to be more open about calling Quislings Quislings.

i had another idea for a star wars tv show its like a call in advice show and the host is yaddle (girl yoda) and she says things like "dump him you must, caller. any song request do you have?" (i dont remember if yaddle talks like that i assume they all do)

If you work for Bluesky, I assume you are biased about Bluesky.

jbp gets bodied beyond all space and time, surprisingly, doesn't cry
