thread on the New York Times association with Jeffrey Epstein (allegedly etc etc) why does @Kenjennings.bsky.social support such a vicious rightwing publication?

David Brooks is now the third alleged Jeffery Epstein associate at the New York Times. This potentially includes A.G. Sulzberger, the current chairman of the NYT board. The NYT published this piece by David Brooks about Epstein less than a month ago. Why did their executive leadership allow this?

Ken really pissed away a genuine opportunity to be an ally. Like, even after the initial fuck up, imagine him putting out a real apology and then using his platform to highlight one of the many articles by trans people about the harm the NYT is responsible for.

if you're reading all these articles as they come out and assuming the story is "these models are escaping containment and causing danger" and not "this is a PR campaign by companies desperate to build hype" I think you are very silly.

It keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.

I think the wall damage on the house would require at least around 1000USD. We need to chisel away the damage, re-apply the cement then the paint. And there is still all the stuff I was dealing before the earthquake. Any help would be appreciated. ko-fi.com/desdarkdesig...

So it seems youtube is actively attacking channels using avatars and marking them as AI, not the actually obvious AI channels, but like if you aren't using your face but instead have a sort of persona you use, it seems like they are targetting that. www.youtube.com/shorts/LDTMC...

I love you all but you are incredibly (understandably) reactive. It’s making you SO easily manipulated by rage baiters. When you see something without context, a headline or a snippet of a quote, take a deep breath and look into it to see if you really should be upset. Please protect your hearts.

It's also almost a documentary a record. It's one of the only representations of a community of sex workers, and their body of work, and memories of friends and co-workers. Porn is can also be so fun and funny and self-aware, which I don't think comes across in media portrayals.

Boy, the way that gay porn used to address (sometimes obliquely) sex and HIV and prevention (or acceptance). The "Wrap It Up" pro-condom films of Chi Chi LaRue, the shocking bareback films of Treasure Island (and Hot Desert Knights and Jeff Palmer!). This is part of our sexual history.

queer people and stigmatized sexualities and identities. But even the most vanilla, blonde hair, big boob, long fingernail Vivid Video vixens give us insight that's not anywhere else. Porn talks about sex and gender and health in a way that no other media does.

porn is a record of our sexuality. What we valued, what we fantasized about, what was taboo (or not), what types of stories we told ourselves. There's just not the same representation in mainstream media (except in caricature, which is not the same). This is particularly important for

movies from old studios, then cut up their footage to sell it as individual scenes online. And then, when it stopped selling, took it offline. Or didn't convert it to the new format. DVDs are the only record. This may not seem all that important — the jokes write themselves — but

I just had dinner with some retired pornographers who were debating what they should do with all their old DVDs, like do they even have value any more. I couldn't vouch for value, but I could say that it's the only format that much of those films exists on. Streaming companies bought up tons of

People will be shocked to learn that there is still a DVD market, but I remember that as late as 2010, companies were still selling VHS. The purchasing adult user base has always skewed older and they like the formats they know!

oh god. Retailers say online age-verification laws are driving up sales in the DVD market. avn.com/news/novelty...

Just reiterating that corsets do help with back support, and no, generally aren't tightlaced, that's like wearing stilletos, so breathing is fine. Stilletos are impractical as you have to basically stand on the balls of your feet, but chunky heeled boots providing support to ankles are a go!

how come no game featuring women wearing impossibly tight clothing has ever deployed the genuine medically valid excuse "I have a weak heart~ so I have to wear custom-fitted compression clothing 24/7 or else my blood pools in my veins and causes me to swell up~"
