Bluesky has "arcs" that makes me lose my faith in people. Why are you "Hear me out"-ing about fascist ghouls like lauren boebert and nancy mace? These people gloat as they lock up kids. I guess they're not targeting white children so it doesn't hit as close. Seriously wtf, cut that shit out.

Even if you somehow literally don't care about policing at all this is the exact mistake Allende made, he promoted Pinochet and thought that he could appease the army while carrying out his social reforms and he and a generation of Chilean workers died for it Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

“If Mamdani has made the calculation that his best shot at enacting his affordability agenda involves leaving the Adams-era policing regime largely untouched, who is able to force him to reconsider?”

Just incredibly bleak. What you’d expect after winning an election by advocating for violent pogroms against the community.

This post just popped up on my Facebook from a page with tens of thousands of followers. Behind the black box are the names of 10 children the OP is alleging to be trans. The post also include photos of all 10 children, and the name of the schools they attend. They’re now doxxing minors.

It is imperative that the next Democratic controlled Congress publish a list of every ICE employee's name so they can be placed on Do-Not-Hire lists for state and local law employment.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

For the last time: censorship isn't about content, it's about identity. It's about who gets to speak.

Merrick Monroe 💜🖤@merrickmonroe.com · 2w ago

I woke up to an email that my YT channel had been removed. I have had this account for nigh 20 years, same as my email, and I don’t even remember the last time I posted a video to it—whatever I posted was CERTAINLY not sexual. But, I’m a sex worker, so my existence goes against community standards.

I'm gonna start a thread of my favourite indie animated series that you should watch and support now that TADC is over:

As I've said before, the Trumpists are *hunting* trans kids. The media is silent. The Democrats are silent. And someday they'll all claim they fought against this. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/08/anti...

Okay I deleted Blue Horizon: Bright Days, Sad Days from Webtoons. I plan on putting it up on bluehorizon.gay AKA the main site and keeping it on Comicfury and Tapas. Hopefully the latter won't go to hell, either.

Kenny Meyers@kennym.bsky.social · 2w ago

Webtoons going all in on AI.

Everyone should block this account. @curation-lab.bsky.social It is an ai that replies and quotes all art by artists, giving unwanted criticism, and scanning their art.

I keep harping on this but AI “writers” and “artists“ keep showing what unserious tourists they are. People who actually create agonize over adverbs and color palettes and metaphors and gesture. AI people can’t even be bothered to skim their own book once

This is just so depressing to see. Readers deserve better than this.

KEEP BULLYING THEM IT WORKS

The AI Slop Backlash Is Actually Having an Impact

Platforms are finally recognizing that people don’t want to consume AI slop. A growing number of sites and apps now have tools and policies to flag, label, and ban AI-generated content.

Man, it makes me both angry and happy that that this amount of money was wasted On one hand Haley Stevens wasting 63 Mill on a campaign and losing anyway is fucking hilarious. Eat shit loser On the other hand, god that amount of money would have been so much better spent on actually helping people

#StupidSuez@diplomatofnight.com · 3w ago

Unfathomable

This level of spending actually makes me deeply angry. Let's never do this again in a primary ok

Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 10 to 1 in the Michigan primary and was subjected to some of the most disgusting gutter Islamophobia since the aftermath of 9/11. deny it all you want but this was a David vs Goliath matchup and David won.

after this i stopped talking about being trans on twitter and instagram and constantly consider just not talking about it ever again/ going stealth, but i can’t because so much of my work revolves around it and i think it’s important. will trans POC ever live in peace? not in my lifetime i assume.

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us

No matter what concessions you give to abusive people in power they will say you still didn't concede enough, should have conceded sooner, because it is in their interest to always be in the position to punish others

Holl🌞@willows-song.bsky.social · 3w ago

This is why you dont try to compromise or concede anything to these horrors

If you can't watch an ASMR video without getting horny that is a YOU problem. Like if someone said spongebob squarepants made him too horny we wouldn't cancel spongebob we'd put him in jail.
