Today is the 81st anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. For @thebulletin.org, I wrote a short piece on the curious story of the "Hiroshima Maidens," and what it tells us about the complicated politics of memory. thebulletin.org/2026/08/the-...
The political implications of Hiroshima’s scarred “maidens”
In May 1955, 25 young Japanese women, all of whom had been schoolchildren who survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, were flown to the United States. They became known in the press as the “Hiroshim...

The scariest movie film curator Rebecca Fons has ever seen is no Hollywood blockbuster. It's a 47-minute, black-and-white, 1960's pseudo-documentary that almost immediately disappeared—possibly because those who commissioned it thought the result "too horrifying for the medium of broadcasting."
A film about nuclear war “too horrifying for the medium of broadcasting”
The scariest movie I've ever seen is not a Hollywood blockbuster from the ‘90s, often referred to as “the golden age for disaster movies.” Instead, it’s something much less well-known: a 47-minute,…

Thank you to everynyan who joined in for @pipopixie.bsky.social 's 24 hour stream! Here are the characters we have created from my small segment of it where chat and my cohosts would help me create Sonic OCs based on a prompt (1 species + 2 key words) and further suggestions!
"Being trans is sad Being trans is horrid." Shut up. Being trans is great. Look. I've got inner peace and a fucking scythe.

Please use this link twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92338... and tell twitch how fucking insane this is. Comment and let twitch know that this is horrible. Thank you

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg · 2w agoTwitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.
This InfoWars caper is going a little too well. We need to staff up a bit. We're hiring a Social Media Lead, who will help make InfoWars the network of the future. We need someone who is extraordinarily online, has big ideas for how things break through in 2026, and can pull those ideas off quick.

Rebumping, been doing a fair bit better but I need to get some more flour, butter, and cat supplies (also unfortunately I can't touch my Paypal so Venmo-only for now)
Yuria@itsyuria.bsky.social · 2w agoSorry to keep posting this but I haven't been able to have more than one meal a day for a while and the constant flow of job application rejections is draining me 😓 venmo.com/code?user_id...
For just $10 you can get over 100 games (including one of mine that was previously unreleased) and, most importantly, benefit game workers impacted by layoffs. Support the Game Industry Hardship Fund‼️
Brandon Sheffield@brandon.insertcredit.com · 2w agoIn response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...
regardless of whether you find this change to be good or bad, i think we can all agree: whoever was told to do it has probably already been laid off

I love when the “almost machine” almost does the work of a jr dev rather than letting me teach a jr dev how to do the job and be more useful than it in short order because the dev can remember things instead of having to rebuild the context for a task every time.

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

hey, cis folks! way too often these things end up being trans people passing the same $20 around until they’re the ones on a bad run of luck. if you’ve been wondering about real ways to help right now, this kind of thing truly matters. if you can chip in, please do.
victoria scott@victoriascott.bsky.social · 2w agoHey I’ve got some friends who have had an insanely bad run of luck and could use some help getting back on their feet, if you have anything you can chip in. Thanks so much 💜💜💜 www.gofundme.com/f/help-two-t...
'Anthropic described the project as “our effort to disruptively scan all the world’s books” in an internal memo, which noted “we do not want it to be known that we are pursuing this project”.'
Dr. Jeroen W.P. Wijnendaele@drdragases.bsky.social · 2w agoNo longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
boy I sure miss drawing without lag. too bad discord, browsers, and windows all became ridiculous bloatware right after vibe coding became a thing. what a mystery
