yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket
Thomas Lecaque@tlecaque.bsky.social · 12mo agoChristopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola. Fuck Columbus.
I reanalyzed the CDC data behind the LGB “free fall” headline. It rests on a change in bisexual identification among one grade, in one wave, of one survey. Gay or lesbian identification did not change significantly. Calling it a "free fall" is sensational and just gives bad actors talking points.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 4d agoYoung teenagers are less likely to identify as lesbian, gay or bisexual than a few years ago, according to a new analysis. “It really does look like a free fall,” Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology, said. “But what’s causing it is unclear.”
Very dystopian that on the article about a A.I. data center poisoning the air, there's a little rainbow A.I. chatbot button just lurking at the edge, waiting to poison the air some more to answer your banal question
Brad Johnson@climatebrad.hillheat.com · 2d agoMy god. A Virginia data center ran backup diesel generators full blast for 24 hours, creating a giant cloud of toxic smoke that choked its human neighbors. The government claimed there was nothing they could do.
Interviewer: can you explain this gap i- Speedrunner: So we set up that gap back in 2009 to get this question now. Now we're gonna stand on a box in the corner, rotate to a precise angle, and do a frame-perfect jump aaaand we're CEO. Time!
BOGLUDDITE@brucemackay.bsky.social · 11h agoInterviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Illustrator: That’s called negative space. It gives the composition some breathing room and draws focus onto the parts of the image that are important to the idea that is being conveyed.
To those implying that Kremlin-controlled social media bot/troll farms became silent after Ukraine hit a Yandex data center, posting this CloudFare chart ( radar.cloudflare.com/bots/as13238 ): Hate to disappoint you all ⤵️
The graph has no source. The tweet says "if confirmed". There are multiple people saying that the graphs that do have sources are being misinterpreted. Please use your heads when spreading "breaking" stories that match your preconceptions too closely, especially if a grifter account is involved.

A bunch of wealthy neo-Malthusians intentionally impoverishing the rest of us so they can retire to their bunkers while we kill each other over scraps and they can inherit a world that exists only for their pleasure? There was a docudrama about this. Samuel L Jackson was in it.
Starfire’s Deranged Neocon Foreign Policy Podcast@irhottakes.bsky.social · 5mo agoI’m honestly unsure what Silicon Valley’s theory of victory is here. As far as I can tell, the plan is: 1.) Suck up to president who has annihilated the taboo on political violence 2.) Take everyone’s job 3.) Expose them to nonstop extremist propaganda And like... For fuck’s sake, why?

Need more artists to openly and explicitly say trans rights so I know which ones to trust that won't backstab us for a transphobic + misogynistic art trend
Having long been aware of those tech bros who read my work as utopian porn, where they’ve taken that doesn’t exactly surprise me.
The article this item refers to is being lambasted for disingenuous framing, poor methodology, and biased sources. Bluesky: "Let's just put the headline as the 'trending' topic as if it were true at face value. This is a valueless action. We are very smart."
the AI industry is full of people who would automate away playing with a kitten
So there's a nonzero chance I'm going to be progressively losing the use of my right leg, and there's nothing I can do about it. The hospitals don't have an MRI I fit in, so I have to have an outpatient referral. Even if I could afford the consult to get the MRI scheduled, I can't afford the MRI.

This goes for the ones who are still masc, too! And it can't be conditional, either. You can't "them" us until you're angry and then revert to "him" exclusively.
Radiant G🌈@radiantg.bsky.social · 5d agoI’m so serious when I say y’all have to stop treating amab nonbinary people like men. & I mean the people who already respect afab nonbinary folks. Do you know how many amab enbies tell me I’m the 1st person to see & respect them? What are we doing? I’m happy to help, but the bar is on the ground
