Not sure what her plan was, but sometimes the small things can feel like a victory :3

The most consistent vibe I've gotten off of corporations all trying to plaster "AI Powered" onto everything was all the companies putting "Y2K Compliant" on power tools and basic stereos that didn't even track the date.

Everyone agrees that we're currently in a dotcom era-like AI bubble. People disagree what sort of bubble it is.

There are 3 stories one can tell about the dotcom crash: a startup story, a telecom story, and an accounting fraud story.

My take: it's giving Enron

Yes and flog the fact it comes from Politico, hardly a liberal outlet.

Democrats need to put the same extended media consuming outrage into the Young Republican Nazi chats as Republicans mustered for Biden going for ice cream.

Explicit may simply imply erotica whilst Graphic might imply gore. Fer might not be able to see it even with an @ if he has that category blocked.

Misunderstood “Graphic Media” to be a superset of “Explicit Media.” Strongly considering deleting and reposting with the correct label.

furry.engineer/@PatrickQuin... e621.net/posts/5889881 finally got around to re-uploading some gift art by @feretta.net. Latest one is of me and @dannytiger.bsky.social, and is the first ever drawing of me doing anything sexual. Two others from prior years are in the mastodon link with descriptions.
A seated anthro tiger, Daniel Felidea, receiving a handjob from a seated anthro cougar my OC Patrick Quin, heads leaning into one another - Daniel is quite a bit taller, and Daniel's arm around my shoulder, hand resting on my chest, with Daniel's other hand on my chin.

IMPORTANTE:
If anyone knows of a decent room or small apartment for rent for a reasonable price (600 max) in the greater Ontario area, I'd appreciate a heads up. And no, this is not for me.

The renter is housebroken, loyal, well behaved, and pays his rent on time. Gets along well with other pets.

This is a horrifying travesty. Mario is a journalist who was covering No Kings protests; his detention is an outrage and we are hearing reports that he may be deported imminently. Raise your voices here: action.aclu.org/send-message...

It is now official, anyone who says "LGB without the T" is a confirmed fed and should be treated accordingly.

We need a bit more than this to cover 3 rents. Depending on what I hear from immediate family, needs may go up. Checking in with friend about her upcoming needs other than rent as well.

Please support the folks fascism is trying to crush:

Furries are very vocal about freedom of expression, they're also very community-oriented people that value sexuality, connection and friendship, and have openly rejected genAI from the very start

Furries are against bsky's moderation stance because they're too smart, sexy and cool not to be

so the Economist article isn't attributed an author. but someone in the replies of this 🧵 tipped me off that it was Jəsse Singal. & it turns out that it was, which in retrospect isn't surprising (as he's one of the ppl who would never answer this question):

many ppl highlighting flaws in this article. but having fought in the "80% desistance" wars of the mid-2010s, I remember asking anti-trans activists if they'd be ok if 80% of youth were helped by gender-affirming care (flipping their argument). & they *never* answered. b/c they want *zero* trans ppl
screenshot of a The Economist post that reads: "A recent study found that children who transitioned young retained stable gender identities over time. But the fact that nearly a fifth of those in the group did not ought to give advocates of irreversible medical interventions pause". the byline of the linked to article says "a study finds that one in five who switch gender change their mind"

to restate for the audience in the back:

the difference between binary and nonbinary is the difference between soup and stew. either way you call it, it's still not a fucking sandwich.
katelynburns.com
Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum.

This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

Autism does not need to be cured! It's the rest of society that needs to be more accommodating!! Neurodivergence and disabilities cause suffering only because we have so little understanding or support. Treating it as something "broken" or "wrong" only enforces that, please just help people instead.

Ok... so on one hand, fuck ABC7 Virginia for the framing of this question.

On the other, Abigail Spanberger is really blowing this with her refusal to state clearly her support for trans Virginians.
