Whenever someone’s throws up a nakedly negative skeet to get the people going.

CW: vicious physical and sexual abuse of a child.

I couldn’t finish reading, but if there is anything that you can do to help this family, please do. They need to be wrapped in as much love, kindness and care as we can extend to them.

Again, no one is trying to *sell* anyone on the benefits of AI. They're just cramming it into everything we use, every site we visit and everywhere we go, and taking our continued use by way of... existing as consent.

Fucking sucks.

Spreadshirt is an online print-on-demand store. You can sell T-shirts and mugs and so on. My wife Arkady Rose is an artist as well as a musician, and had a pile of designs on Spreadshirt and Redbub…

It’s easy for us to say the Gaza Ceasefire “isn’t real” because we’ve never had to sleep while bombs drop overhead.

No I don’t trust a thing these fascists are spinning— but I hold space for the Palestinian people who have newfound hope and sleep without bombs overhead even if for a moment

People always made over it but I lived there before Uber eats and such and I don’t think it delivered to my address.

Mel @thegatesofmel.blacksky.app · 5h

Yeah most places don’t make it like that and I can’t think of too many if any square pizza offerings there.

Ah okay. I think that’s more of a Ledo’s thing then. I lived there eight years and never had that. I also never had Ledo’s. Don’t tell nobody tho.

I’ve never heard of Maryland style pizza. Is this new?

Food Republic @foodrepublic.bsky.social · 6h

Maryland style pizza is made from a rectangular dish, rather than a round one, uses provolone rather than mozzarella, has a sweet sauce, and a laminated crust.
