I can't believe the amount of recent history revisionism in the UK. Response to Polish immigration was so severe that it successfully led to Brexit. BREXIT. And tanked British economy. This happened last decade, you can just Google it.

Post on X Remember in early 2000s thousands of Polish men immigrated over to UK cause their economy crashed but no one said fuck all cause they came to work, minded their own buisness an left our kids alone.....

Response Most Poles who emigrated to the UK in the early 2000s remember something completely different and photo of xenophobic graffiti

Everyone is lonely, dude. You’re not special or suffering uniquely for being a lonely cis man. I’m not saying it’s easy for you, that shit sucks! I am however saying that you’re not the victim of some targeted effort against cis men. Grow up, you absolute big fucking baby

Y’ever notice how nobody talks about a “trans loneliness epidemic”, an “autistic loneliness epidemic”, an “I can’t afford essentials so I can’t go into paid spaces to meet people loneliness epidemic”? Funny how bad feelings only matter when they happen to cis men lol

Robin enters the Silver room of Babel third illustration for R. F. Kuang's Babel - Illustrated edition 30x40cm ink on claybord (starting to enter spoiler territory a bit here but eh)

black and white scratchboard illustration depicting a circular room in three point down-up perspective - around the room are circular pillars holding up a balcony. High above the room, an ornate dome. In the center of the room, dozens of silver bars of varying heights, some reaching to the ceiling, some a few inches high, are arranged almost like an organ. On the left side of the illustration, a boy wearing acamedic attire and holding a satchel, stands there and looks up at the silver bars in awe.

"A bunch of people would rather post on Race War Now Dot Swastika rather than Bluesky because you keep making fun of their imaginary computer friend" is a RESOUNDING endorsement for the concept of hostility.

Part of a thread from some bluecheck:
Multiple people I know have told me that they love the idea of Bluesky, and want it to succeed, but have abandoned it for X because the use agentic tools in their work and find them incredibly useful, and feel that any mention of their usage here leads to hate and ridicule.

I wouldn't bring this up if it was just one person, but it was multiple people since the beginning of August who mentioned in passing something to the effect of either "I'd spend more time on Bluesky if people weren't so anti-AI" *or* "As much as I hate to be there all the useful AI talk is on X."

I'm not saying it's anyone's responsibility to praise AI usage. I agree with much of the criticism of the tool. But for many, many people, it is a useful tech (I have talked about the ways I find it extraordinarily useful, only to have people here mock me, insisting my lived experience is a lie).

I am just noting that for all the people here who say that people should get off X and spend more time here, the reason I keep hearing from people in various circles who would *like* to do that, but don't, is the vociferous belief of many here that there are no possible positive uses of AI.

N*eil G*aiman When I was in my 20s, American Gods was a yearly re-read for me. I even still have one of the Folio Society editions for it still. Sandman was transcendant. I wanted to learn how to write so beautifully and evocatively. I can still have my memories, but he wont have my money

Question for the Skyline: What was your HARDEST "cancel"?? Like the actor/singer/athlete that was the hardest to drop. I feel like it's always people I don't fw getting canceled so it's never really a loss. The hardest one was maybe TI because I actually liked multiple albums by him.
