Man sticker mule is advertising all over YouTube, stealing sticker app’s ad aesthetics and really hoping you forget about the obscene amount of money they’ve donated to Trump and also making a Trump statue. But I remember. We all remember, sticker mule. cbs6albany.com/news/local/s...

russian terror continues. Last night, russia killed 6 more people and wounded 8 across 4 regions: Mykolaiv, Dnipro, Kyiv, and Odesa oblasts. Day and night, russia launches missiles and drones to murder civilians. Help protect the innocent: u24.gov.ua/sky-defense?...

If you're not going to look for/use alternatives to Discord, you should at least cancel Nitro. Please just do the bare minimum at the very least. A lot of people put way too much confidence in others doing the hard part for the sake of not giving up some minor convenience. Now's not the time.

Here are the 33 Democrats who voted with Republicans to block federal funding to American colleges if they engage in boycotts against Israel — a foreign country that's committed genocide and killed Americans using American tax dollars:

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

We need your help! Send Governor Newsom a message telling him you support SB1050 and want it to be signed into law! Governor’s Office: (916)445-2841 @cagovernor

The replies are like "I'll just pirate it!" and I'm sure all your trans friends and associates are happy to know you're still a fan of the woman who's made it her life goal to ruin their lives, you just don't want to pay her for it.

the speed at which everyone forgets is utterly shocking to me - it's basically just a single election cycle no matter how bad the damage is george w bush ran the country into a ditch, covered it in petrol and set it on fire and two years later republicans gained 63 seats in the midterms

dr. rich traditions, JD@helldude.bsky.social · 5d ago

it's wild how republicans will be like "governing is bad, also elect me to govern you" and people do and they put their promise into practice and don't govern, run everything off a cliff, bankrupt everyone, light the world on fire, and after a while people forget about that and let them do it again

Someday soon hes going to be over and trans folk will continue to exist and, hopefully, thrive, for as long as there are humans on this planet.

Millions of Americans may not receive their mail ballots in time, or at all, because of a secretive, court-defying system being rushed into place by the Trump administration. Two months before the midterms. This isn't by chance. It's a blatant attempt to steal an election. Share this everywhere.

I would 100% support a law that says if any digital platform removes your access to media you paid for then they are required to refund you the entirety of the original purchase price. That would solve this whole thing in a hurry.

Sony has responded to a digital games lawsuit by arguing that players don't actually own the games they buy Its lawyers say they are licensed rather than sold

You'd better believe other studios/platforms ALSO think this way "In the digital age, it is not plausible to allege that reasonable consumers believed they were obtaining 'ownership' of a digital game." Buy Physical Media whenever possible, otherwise you don't actually own *anything*

Sony lawyers argue that nobody is stupid enough to believe they actually own digital games, because then only one person could buy GTA 6

PlayStation believes "reasonable consumers would not be misled" by its current disclosures

Bumping to mention that I've had no recs for an African voice actor. A Black actor who is not from the continent but knows an accent from it is a-okay too Also something worth mentioning that I forgot to say last time is that this is under a SAG-AFTRA contract so it's union safe ☺️👍

Putting out early feelers for casting I'll be doing in Sept/Oct for 4 characters: - Vietnamese, female - East African (other African regions ok but East would be precise), any gender - Irish, male - and the last one's weird but I'd love to hear from streamers who got acting chops

I cannot emphasize this enough: CHECK YOUR VOTER STATUS, THESE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING EVIL AND TRYING TO TAKE AWAY YOUR ABILITY TO EVEN TAKE PART IN THE PROCESS

🦊 MythiccVixen 🔞@mythiccvixen.bsky.social · last wk.

Check your voter status! Vote.gov Doesn’t matter what state you’re in. Always check your status before voting day. Do it months before because there are often deadlines to fixing it. Make sure everything is active and accurate.

happy pride month!

It would be amazing if cis people could attempt to grasp how it feels for trans people to hear that large groups of Americans are being tested to see if one of us is hidden among them - because they'll be testing for your personal minority next.
