this sucks. nashville zoo is one of the most modern, humane, and accessible zoos in the country. if you care about conservation, critters, and science, go sign and go raise hell. nash zoo is also a bastion of science and equality as a southern workplace. please please protect it.

It's so surreal seeing a potential environmental lawsuit develop in real time.

Well holy crap. Erin Brockovich (yes, the same one the led the Hinkley, CA toxic groundwater lawsuit in ‘93) launched a website tracking AI data centers across the US and the ecological impacts to the environment and drinking water. MN is riddled with them. www.brockovichdatacenter.com

Since I have some eyes on me, hi, I'm Kai-Angel, I'm a black, disabled, and queer artist that's currently struggling to survive. I got laid off back in December of 2025, and I've been barely scraping by ever since. Anything would help I'm barely eating and rent is due soon How to help below:

I’m fucking devastated what Black members of my fandom are going through rn. You have every right to feel how you feel and this community should be a safe one. It devastates me that the hatedom has reached levels that threaten lives over demanding how people ‘should’ feel.

Re: 'H.R. 8250' "Parents Decide Act". This bill wants to force age verification on the operating system level. If you see one of your reps listed below, CALL THEM so we can kill this in committee www.congress.gov/members/find...

I QRP but also putting this in replies: Here's some actionable info. It's in committee, meaning we can kill it before it ever reaches the floor (most bills die in committee and never reach the floor) These are the current members, if they're your rep, call them.

my fear is that fans aren't going to realize- or simply don't care about- how revolutionary this whole glitch "bring an indie film to theaters" situation is and will squander a great opportunity to give more power to creators, by arguing about keeping glitch indie by sabotaging this

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u #transdayofvisibility #tdov

Trans people deserve compassion, comradeship and now fierce advocacy. Transphobia is a social illness; societally embarrassing, unscientific, antisocial, failing to improve human happiness. Oppose it where you find it, either in yourself or others.

also, my understanding is that the US senate will be voting on the SAVE ACT/ SAVE AMERICA ACT -TOMORROW- (saturday the 20th) so PLEASE call and yell at your reps about that one specifically literally right now

I think AI image and video is very technically impressive and has potential utility, in principle. But I dont think I have every looked at any AI image twice. None of them have enough emotional weight to revisit.

It's not over, not yet. Evil men rule the world, they may continue to do so until long after we are dead. By they will never win, we are to pernicious, too ingrained in the human spirit. Our time will come, for someone, somewhen.

I made the mistake of posting on X, but it is informative about the Culture War and its function, and how the ruling class uses young men. A short thread. First, my post. Note that flaws in the game industry itself are blamed on a single woman outside of the industry/

Thank you to all the people who are good at talking about random things for hours.

Two separate sets of cryptids trying to BS one another and gaslit their non-existence is such a hysterical concept and I'm shocked it's never been done before lol #helluvaboss
