BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Ruffalo is right. You can't endorse a dude who told exactly what he wanted to do and then act like You were ignorant of his "real plan". Rogan, people tried to take you off from Spotify for this shit. Now he tries to safe face because his brand is compromised

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com · 17d

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

Elon Musk Leads Campaign To Force Netflix To Remove Shows With Trans Characters

Musk's posts have been seen by tens of millions of users, and many conservatives are now attempting to force Netflix into a removal of LGBTQ+ content.

Folks ragging on Blueksy for this move need to redirect that anger at the Ohio Legislature. This isn't a bluesky problem.

Get angry. Melt the phones. Call AG Yost's office.

If you're outside Ohio, call your reps. It's coming for you next.

Like I said, it’s all the same crew working together to try and discredit anyone they see as a threat to both their bullshit, political views, but more importantly their online clout.

It’s literally a coordinated troll ring that was active on Twitter targeting anyone not sufficiently centrist.

Real fucking interesting that it was apparently Theophite who started this. Same guy who was calling Palestinians scammers on here for months and claiming they were all using AI to pretend to be in Gaza

This is about Mariame Kaba btw. A handful of people decided that today was a good time to dig up a piece she wrote in 2015 to discredit her, discredit abolition, and discredit anarchism.

Well now that parts of the Epstein Files are finally being released we know why friends of Donald Trump have been fighting non stop to suppress them.

Elon Musk, Steve Bannon, and Peter Thiel were all taking pedophile island vacations

So far there have been zero trans women reported as having visited epsteins pedo island. But lots of people who want you to think trans women are threats to children seemed to have gone there at some point.

Curious...

Instead of participating in #blueskyblackout2025 and self-censoring, you can show your solidarity by, yknow, making noise.

Hit that feedback button! Bring up the bullshit rules about fictional characters! Don't rebel against being told to be quiet by complying. That makes no sense!

This is a BAD idea from a tactical pov

all this means is an issue that bsky mods do NOT want controversy around will have NO posting about it for a full week

a large number of people who come back from the "blackout" will likely not start up the complaints again

it hamstrings the cause

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

River_Tam @rivertam.bsky.social · Sep 18

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

currently at record-high search interest for canceling disney plus. pulling kimmel is a bigger deal to the company's bottom line than any of the "woke" scandals of the past 5 years. i think news & entertainment corp execs need put more work into understanding their audience, & get off twitter

Bullshit doesn't even begin to describe this. In fact, bullshit is too pleasant and doesn't get the point across of how horrible of an idea this is.

This is roachshit. Pure unfettered most toxic ass cockroach shit I have ever seen.

YouTube is secretly using AI to edit people's videos

• Skin is being smoothed or sharpened

• Features like ears are being altered

• YouTube confirmed there's an 'experiment' on Shorts to 'unblur' and 'improve' clarity

• There's currently no way to opt out
