I’m so excited about this. This is a real fucking crime, not some boring-ass crypto scam run entirely from a chair.

France's Interior Minister, Laurent Nuñez, called the heist "a major, highly organized operation" that lasted just seven minutes. Authorities were still drawing up the value of the stolen items. n.pr/4o9JbkU

If you were at the No Kings events, please wear a mask for the next few days.

Covid is not over.

You can infect others before you feel symptomatic.

People are losing their healthcare. They’re losing their food assistance. They’re losing housing.

We need to protect each other.

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once.

And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors

I gotta be honest, the association with monarchy is heretical and outrageous, but the thing that really sticks in my craw is how quickly and steadfastly they stood by "everyone I don't like is Mexican."

A shot from the opening of a PlayStation2 title, Silent Hill 3. The effect of the blinds shadow overlays was by the lead programmer Norihito Hatakeda and Fukushima. If they hadn't been in the team, the Heather's narrative would have been a mediocre one.

Heather, the protagonist of a Playstation 2 title called Silent Hill 3, she is in a restaurant. She has a look at something in her hands while being reflected in the setting sun. Also her body is overlaid with blind shadows.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

All my friends I made on Gaiaonlline 10+ years ago are discussing how we might just go back to Gaia if discord requires photo ID

Fascists are inherently reactionary, they want and need the engagement, that's why a good chunk of their ground game was setting up a major org that goes around debating kids that just started college. They feed off of the discourse to legitimize themselves, better to mock and block

The reason they're coming after this place is because they can't control the people on it and it drives them nuts.

Look up breathing issues in brachiocephalic breeds. Look up skin issues in hairless breeds. Look up manx syndrome & Scottish fold osteochondrodysplasia in cats.
If you didn't know then, you didn't know. The animal is already here, just give it a good life. But don't support these breeds again!

"but MY pet is vetted with papers and can live to an acceptable age just fine!"
Over a few generations like 20 kittens/puppies were culled or lived a life where they only knew suffering so you could excuse yourself for having a cat/dog that looks how you want while barely being able to be a cat/dog.

Breeding to extremes or for ultimately harmful mutations in animals should be illegal. Breeding modern pugs/persians/brachiocephalic animals, scottish folds, manxes, hairless animals, etc. should all be illegal.
