Speaking as someone who has a permanently subluxated hip and a currently subluxated jaw, I very much second this.
@oldgodspod.bsky.social Hi π just wanted you to know that I'm finally bingeing the series just now (and I love it). The surprise Ace rep was wonderful and means a lot. Thank you πββοΈ
This is fucking disgusting and I'm horrified by how unsurprised I am.
Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion had a group of characters who desperately wanted to bring about the game's version of the rapture. They were the bad guys.
there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true
I hate this shithole I live in. This is beyond fucking disgusting.
What the ever loving fuck? This is just evil.
Not hearting your pain, but definitely commiserating
Easter water fights. In Poland, there's a tradition called Εmigus-dyngus where you sneak up on family with water pistols or even hoses. Mum woke me up one year like this π

It is more important than ever to share these resources. Do not ignore what is happening.
There are many people who simply do not understand the stakes and either understate or overstate them. The issue is not that AI will replace writers or w/e: it can't. The issue is that AI will make our working conditions significantly worse and harm the development of new artists in our fields.
I really want this t-shirt!
Over the last 2 days we received more than $500 dollars in pledges for The Matron 2. Amazing rallying! We have a stretch goal - if we get $5,500 we will open up a stretch reward:

The Matron v2 (The Bite of Her Ax) has been successfully crowdfunded and will close in a few days (although some of the core rewards can still be late pledged for, including getting vol 1 and 2 together). Thank you so much to our backers!!!!
I will never use LLM for anything to do with my writing. Even my research is driven by good research practice, not AI. Why would I? I like the work. If you don't like doing the work, ask yourself why you're not actually doing something you do like to do, instead.
Thank you π
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
Wondering if t-shirts would be an option? The artwork is beautiful and I'd love to be able to wear it.

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isnβt over until the epidemic is over for everyone.
