as several people have pointed out, citing the fake "62 million" number rather than the true "1000 people" number actually lessens the possibility that anyone will face consequences for raping their spouse. It's actually possible to hold 1000 people accountable for that

but when people point out it's wrong the people spreading the misinfo are just like "but even 1 is too many". ok so then why are you saying it's 62 million if 1000 i just as bad

it's a horrible article about a horrible thing, and it is surely a reflection of some despicable cultural attitudes about women, but repeating a fake statistic that like 1 in 3 american men were interested in this is not helpful to anyone

thinking abt this bc there is currently a controversy on tiktok where people are misreading and spreading a statistic from this article, saying that 62 million men were either in or interested in a telegram chat about drugging and raping their female partners when really it was like 1000 people max

I would like it if Coyote vs. Acme ends with Coyote catching, roasting and eating the Roadrunner

if you find yourself appalled that RFK Jr is able to make this claim but you don’t wear a mask in, at the very least, public indoor spaces, you are acting in precisely the way that allows him to say that covid is gone.

GOOD POST

Friends, I call upon the hive mind! Is there anything to help *prevent* ticks from getting on you (and your dog)?

Context: walks in my wetlands with my dog have resulted in finding ticks on both of us multiple times and I would like to stop this very much!!!

lady wearing a shirt that has been badly edited to say "I joined BlueSky and all I got was blocked by the technical advisor who tried to cool his phone off in a pool and also this jpeg of a t-shirt"

didn't you put your phone in the pool because it was too hot or something?

くちぱっち

comics are so good, i wish people could get paid a livable wage for them

i've seen "it would really stick it to the devs if we left bsky" posts & no it wouldn't. they want this web site to be boring crypto idiots who cool their phones off in pools chatting with AI reply bots. instead they have to put up with us and that's deeply funny

This is one of the best pieces of pop culture writing I've read in the past couple of years. These excerpts are great but you need to read how the build to that last one. Goddamn. Thank you @awalrusdarkly.bsky.social and @popheist.com

Same! I was worried the only reason it hadn't leaked was because it got deleted or something

five sentrets all in a line, each based on a different care bear!

fun idea tonight :)

Big ole cheesey grin over here!!

My sleep schedule has been so bad, but it's been so hard for me, like emotionally, to go to bed before 11pm. But I have to because it's been hitting me really hard lately

as an image/picture lover, I can't get enough of Bluesky, The Vibe-Coded Site

I flinched at 866. There's nothing more humbling than Squaredle. At a certain point, I just try to brute force my way to the answers

It’s part of why I will always feel infinitely more kinship with trans women than with weird terf freaks, bc I love being a woman and feel happiness and freedom in womanhood, not pain and oppression.

seeing trans joy and gender euphoria literally helped me access Cis+, and become way more comfortable expressing my femininity. Words can't express how grateful I am to the trans community for that!!!

In 2025, renewables overtook coal in global electricity generation for the first time in over 100 years.

Renewables: 33.8%
Coal: 33.0%

Coal fell below a third of global electricity generation for the first time in history.

Oh no, not yet, but now I'm curious

Good luck!!
