If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

When Nintendo start doing surveys about the new Tomodachi Life, mention the gender and dating options as reasons for why you picked it up. It's gonna be a good way to send a message that we'd like to see more of that.

dead internet theory isn’t even a theory, people actively work to replace most of the internet with „autonomous agents working with each other”

There’s still more work to be done, BUT a win is a win no matter what!

NEVER let ANYONE tell you that your voice doesn’t matter cuz look what we did

ACLU @aclu.org · 1d

BREAKING: The Senate just blocked a bill that would have renewed ICE's budget without real, enforceable changes.

This is a direct result of hundreds of thousands of people across the nation demanding that our Senators vote no.

No media outside of Kansas has picked up on the fact that the state just enacted a de facto public ban and papers-please act against trans people, and they won't, because trans people are only newsworthy if it furthers our dehumanization.

Kansas just passed a monstrous bill enabling criminal penalties and vigilante lawsuits for trans people using the bathroom according to their gender identity and requires them to surrender their current drivers licenses and birth certificates if it does not match their sex assigned at birth.

a digital cel-shaded illustration of the character noelle holiday from deltarune, seen from a high angle. she is afloat and staring upwards with parted lips and stars in her eyes, and her hair floats around her. she is wearing her default dark world outfit and has a pair of white angel wings. the background is a pale yellow gradient, with small dust-like clouds that indicate motion.

Here are some screenshots of some of the most bonkers things the CEO of Roblox said in a recent interview with NYT www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/p...

Newton: You have joined us today to talk about this new age-gating policy that Roblox is rolling out to protect kids. And I think we should start by just talking about the scope of the problem here.
What has led you to this point? And how do you think of the problem of predators on Roblox?
Baszucki: We think of it not necessarily just as a problem, but an opportunity as well. How do we

Newton: Yeah, I mean, you mentioned sort of kids leaving the platform, and it does become clear in those lawsuits that Roblox is kind of, you know, where predators go to find kids, but then they do try to -
Baszucki: (interjecting) Well, I would say in the lawsuit or the press, yes. I would categorically reject the actual description of what you're saying. But yes, what you might read in the news would portray it that way, but I -
Newton: (interjecting) You don't think you have a problem with predators on the platform.
Baszucki: I think we're doing an incredible job at innovating relative to the number of people on our platform and the hours, in really leaning into the future of how this is going to work.

Roose: Would you ever put a prediction market inside Roblox — like, let kids bet with their Robux and say, "I bet he's gonna steal a Tung Tung Tung Sahur?"
Newton: Or, "I bet he's not gonna Dress to Impress."
Baszucki: We would - I think we would have to do that — once again, I'll share some of the complexity. Every single country in the world has different legislation around loot boxes and kid gambling. And so we would have to be — it sounds very fun and obvious. Like, I love that -
Roose: Oh, to be clear, I think this is a horrible idea.
Newton and Baszucki: (laughter)
Roose: I was just interested if you were thinking about it.
Baszucki: Well, I actually think it's a brilliant idea if it can be done in an educational way that's legal. And so, imagine no free Robux, no free prizes, just a game called the Dress to Impress Predictor, where it's not like trying to get kids' money or anything like that. I would be a big fan of it.
Newton: Interesting.
Roose: Yes, start them young. That's what I always say. When it comes to gambling, you're never too young.

ice shell weather

(doodle comic)

panel 1: (me staring out my window at the beautiful snow outside, sad and FOMO-laden): this is bull shit why am i wilting away indoors when i should be outside frolicking and thriving in a winter wonderland

panel 2: i step outside my house onto the snow

panel 3: the snow has developed a hard and brittle crust from a cycle of repeated melting and refreezing over the past few days, it immediately forms a crater underfoot

panel 4: because my awesome robot body weighs one million tons, the crater continues to spread as the camera zooms out away from my house

panel 5: the camera zooms out further and reveals that i am currently on europa, which is fast succumbing to the crater, this is what it feels like every time i go outside in this weather

Reminding everyone, PLEASE, DO NOT sub to your favorite content creators through phone apps as it not only charges you more, it also takes a higher % from us AND to top it all off blocks the money from being received for 30 fucking days for some goddamned reason.
