...I fucking died laughing.

Just watched the Trump/Vance/Zelenskyy footage and I'm embarrassed to be American. Goddamn shithole country.

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

Again, please, Generative AI (chatbots, image generators...) demands crazy amount of energy and water and increases carbon footprint. When you use it, you are not just stealing copyrighted material and looking super clumsy, you are also accelerating global warming.

Someone speaking out against DEI is such an easy tell that they are racist, I guess they just don't care about being openly racist?

Not surprised that it's community colleges that are fighting back. Community colleges serve the greatest number of people facing systemic barriers. A large percentage of community college students are the first in their family to attend college.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

Roses are red, Elon's a knob,

Trump is like the evil dad from an 80's teen movie forbidding me from seeing my true love, Canada. I love you Canada.

Even though Rubio promised life-saving aid wouldn't be interrupted, it has essentially been halted worldwide, interrupting HIV and TB treatment and threatening millions of lives. People are dying today because of these chaotic, inconsistent stop work orders. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

This shoulda been the Bills.

Once this racist loser backs your team, it’s over.

If you say things like "there's no point to legal action, Trump will ignore the court order" or "none of that will matter since there won't be any elections in 2 or 4 years anyways" you are capitulating in advance. No, we pursue every avenue of resistance we have.

this invades my brain every so often

I can't believe I have to deal with all this Trump bullshit because a bunch of white guys can't deal with having small dicks

Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

only appropriate political response here is to demand the white house explain how its actions aren’t responsible www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Trans rights are human rights. They’re YOUR rights. Bodily autonomy is fundamental. We should all be loudly on the same side with this one.

People will be like “keep politics out of gaming” and then play Final Fantasy 7

I finally did it. I deleted all my tweets (all 10k 😭) and only left 1 tweet on the nazi owned platform.

Poor Dark- misfortune 😭 Right after she did have to fight Tsukiyomi…and Alphinaud did leave with Maxima 🥺

midjourney, chatgpt and all that other "AI" slop is realtime climate crisis accelerant. even if you don't give a fuck about creative people, take a look at the fires right now and consider your priorities

And after many many hours in party finder I finally got the 99 materia for my Shroud of Darkness mount. I only did it during bonus times and it took about 35 clears. Despite all that I still think it's a really fun battle and I look forward to more chaotic raids in the future! #ffxiv

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

if you see this post, your actions are: - if you have a spare buck, give it to Wikipedia, then repost this - if you don't have a spare buck, just repost your action is mandatory for the world's best source of information to survive

Spent my first day of 2025 grinding for the Dias of Darkness mount on #FFXIV and finally got it! It's a pretty unique mount, I'm happy.

🌟FRIENDSHIP🌟

Cleared Cloud of Darkness Chaotic in #FFXIV tonight! What a fun battle and some great new content from SE. I'm looking forward to helping more first timers clear for that sweet bonus and more battles like this in the future. (Thundergod Cid chaotic next??)

A passage from the Tao that’s frequently worth revisiting.

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.
