Aug. 5, 1926: “Battling Butler,” Buster Keaton’s latest movie comedy, has its premiere in Chicago. The actor-director stars in an adaptation of a stage musical, playing a weak and pampered heir who poses as a boxer (the Battling Butler of the title) to impress a new love interest. 1/2
Not only was she loudly right about everything and reviled for it, in 2017 O'Connor donated 30 years worth of clothes and makeup to trans girls in Ireland.

Avis for @birmit.bsky.social I wasn’t able to get this done in time for Art Fight but I’m so happy that I finished it now! Yay 💜💜💜 Hope you like it, Birmit 💜
Gonna be blunt, the reason I complain about AI so much is because it's made so much extra work for me, as I'm inundated with AI slopware games that I have to sort through and filter out, if this garbage tech ceased to exist tomorrow, it would be an immediate ease of that workload.
Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak
"Your distorted worldview that gave them human rights" says it all. Mask fully off right there. And THAT is why you press a single line of questioning. To catch the slip.
Feiglin: "You know, I have a grandson, his friend is under his grave because of people like you." Teenager: "So I'm responsible for his murder?" Feiglin: "No, I mean that your disrtorted worldview that gave them human rights is responsible for his murder" Teenager: "So you say everyone must (5/6)

here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?

Insane that democrats keep trying to cave on this issue rather than amplifying the fact that it’s being spearheaded by bigots and freaks
An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
Can't think of a thing that will radicalize a generation faster than "you've gotta let that old man in the corner over there see what's inside those pants before you play Kindergarten volleyball."

But... what's... what's the point of the image? Like without the DSA, Communists, and Muslims fish, the Fascism fish is still eating the Democrats lol. Centrist Democrats remain self-defeating in all ways.
Fossil fuel industries get an estimated 7 trillion in subsidies. We are paying for our own mass death and destruction.
The world is full of people who insist "AI is changing everything" but who - when pressed - have to admit that what they mean is that they're pretty sure that AI *will* change everything. Eventually. After we allow it to consume all the planet's energy, carbon, water and financial resources. 8/
I didn’t expect to even make 5 things over art fight let alone 20! Overall I’m really pleased by the level I was able to maintain, even if I think a few pieces need a bit more love. I’m so happy I didn’t burn out! This is the most art I’ve made in years 💜

Watched this with my partner last night. Surreal 57 min long cartoon about a clown girl who falls into a town ruled by rubber hose like cartoon representations of the 8 Buddhist precepts (basically 8 things Buddhist Monks& Nuns must avoid). Made by only a couple people over 6 years. Very impressive.
