Hi, I just got here, do you want to sing bad karaoke with me? °•*|| 30s | they/them ||•°*

finding out my parents golf with the parents of a guy I've been a fan of for years but I can't tell them the only work I've read by him was called "sex criminals" and was about a pair of people who could stop time every time they orgasmed and (as the title suggests) used that power to commit crimes.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

(1/) Prime Minister Carney’s silence while Trump openly threatens genocide against millions of people is abhorrent. Real leadership isn’t complicity and cowardice, it means speaking out against Trump’s horrific threats, which channel the rhetoric of fascist dictatorships.

The President of the United States is openly threatening to commit genocide against 90 million people. Prime Minister Carney: if there was ever a moment to denounce this illegal war, withdraw your support, and call for accountability for war crimes—it’s now.

Screenshot of a post from Donald Trump: A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

This isn't me saying I agree with transandrophobia theory, but it does seem ironic that the people who are so vocally against any use of the word constantly cite Whipping Girl while Julia Serano herself has suggested that additional language may be needed for trans masculine experiences.

Screenshot of the following text: Multiple things can be true at once. Transmisogyny can be a vital term for some of us to communicate the intersection of transphobia and misogyny that we face. But others may experience it more complicatedly or severely, as in the case of transmisogynoir. And for others (e.g., certain nonbinary people, trans male/masculine-spectrum people), misogyny may intersect with transphobia in different ways that aren’t adequately articulated by transmisogyny. This doesn’t necessarily make transmisogyny “wrong”; it may simply mean that we need additional language.

Honestly it's at the point where if I'm trying to look up how to do something and the article isn't in first person and doesn't begin with a personal anecdote that sounds real I just assume it's AI. I'm sure in a couple months even those won't be trustworthy anymore.

People who say there's no skill to 3d printing and it's a soulless hobby please come use my 3d printer right now. Please show me how easy it is. I'm so fr. I'm laying on the floor having a meltdown because all I want is to make a sponge holder for my niece and it won't work. Come show me please.

it’s insane that a decade ago we all agreed that giving mass shooters the attention they desired was a bad thing but now because rightwingers will quite literally lie about the shooter every single time we all have to be acutely aware of the shooters intentions and ideology

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

The Dems who are caving are doing so not because their base wants them to, not because the voters want them to, not because the fed workers and SNAP recipients want them to… they are caving because their DONORS want them to. And that’s really all that ever matters to the corrupt
