our little corners of the internet 💙

zoomed in pixel art of r/place toki pona artowk and and its neighbours

starting from the top left, the basque flag is above the word r/catalunya above the catalonian flag (alternating red and yellow stripes, 4 red, 5 yellow) to its right is a rounded banner that is half yellow and blue, on it's left side the toki pona symbol in the middle, toki pona is written and on the right side is the sitelen pona symbol for the joke word kijetesantakalu, which means raccoon like animal. below it is "o kama pona" followed by "ale li pona" written in toki pona. next to it is the symbol for tonsi (transgender & nonbinary) with a trans flag behind it. underneath that, "new radio shows?" is squished in. in the places where the toki pona banner and catalonia flag meet a small heart is in between them, with the colours of the opposite in the other side. below toki pona is "r/parahumans" on a starry background with a bleeding moon and "read worm" and "read pale" are written. theres more but char limit :(

a knight character i don't know supposedly from parahumans shakes hands with the personification of toki pona from the prolangs webcomic. around them are the words worm, a small heart witha. flag for an native american community (im sorry i forgot which one) which has an opposum hanging off it, a dark skinned hand making an "i love you" sign in ASL and some other characters i don't recognise (a rat wearing a crown and a character with purple hair and red and blue heterochromia in her eyes)

is this one of those woke sandwich fillings the daily mail was on about

Now Gen Z are waging war on our sandwiches! How younger Brits are ditching English classics like ham and mustard in favour of fancy woke fillings

as an assembly line trans myself, i love being treated like we're all snobbish white wealthy college educated elites from exclusively rich areas entirely contrary to the actual statistical reality

(2015 & 2022 USTS, same one where 41% came from but people never cared about the rest of it i guess)

two charts from the 2015 US transgender survey comparing US general population and USTS survey respondents
Figure 4.21: individual income in 2014
No income: 9% trans 10% general population
$1 - 9,999: 22% trans, 15% general
$10,000 - 24,999: 25% trans, 24% general
$25,000 - $49,999: 21% trans, 25% general
$50,000 - $99,999: 15% trans, 18% general
$100,000 or more: 9% trans, 8% general

Figure 4.22: household income in 2014
No income: 4% trans 1% general population
$1 - 9,999: 12% trans, 4% general
$10,000 - 24,999: 22% trans, 12% general
$25,000 - $49,999: 24% trans, 21% general
$50,000 - $99,999: 23% trans, 31% general
$100,000 or more: 15% trans, 31% general

c. Poverty
Nearly one-third (29%) of respondents were living in poverty, more than twice the poverty rate among the general U.S. adult population (12%)

d. Employment Status
When asked about their current employment status, 35% of respondents reported that they currently had at least one full-time job, 15% had at least one part-time job, 15% were self-employed, and 11% were students. The unemployment rate for USTS respondents was 15%, three times the U.S. unemployment rate at the time of the survey (5%).

XI. Educational Attainment
Respondents were asked about the highest level of education or degree that they had completed.
Thirteen percent (13%) of respondents had a high school diploma or GED, or did not complete high school. Forty percent (40%) had completed some college but had not obtained a degree, 9% had an associate's degree, and 38% had received a bachelor's degree or higher (Figure 4.23).

Results from the 2022 US Transgender Survey, Location by Region pie chart:
Midwest 17%
Northeast 19%
West 23%
South 41%

South: AL, AR, DE, DC, FL, GA, KY, LA, MD, MS, NC, OK, SC, TN, TX, VA, WW
West: AK, AZ, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NM, NV, OR, UT, WA, WY
Northeast: CT, ME, MA, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT
Midwest: IA, IN, IL, KS, MI, MN, MO, NE, ND, OH, SD, WI

Pinned LibsofBluesky tweet:

Bluesky has landed on a name for their posts. The consensus is posts will be known as a "Skeet" The only problem is Skeet is slang for ejaculate. At this point they are trolling themselves.

Two attatched images show a screenshot of blueskiers calling them skeets and an attatched dictionary definition of skeet from a slang dictionary

this has gotta be the realest garfield comic ever

garfield sitting on the lounge looking at the tv with the remote, he is slumped and bored as he switches through channels thinking "garbage... junk... garbage... junk... garbage... junk...", the next panel his face lights up, "Ah!" he thinks, "Trash!"

do you think saint nicholas fucks with beyonce's 2008 hit all the single ladies

Mobile Wikipedia screenshot, the words "unmarried people" are highlighted in the paragraph reading:

Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, pawnbrokers, toymakers, unmarried people, and students in various cities and countries around Europe. His reputation evolved among the pious, as was common for early Christian saints, and his legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the folklore of Santa Claus ("Saint Nick") through Sinterklaas.

me next week

Curious George the monkey sits on a box with the words "Ballot Box" on it in red lettering, he is putting in multiple ballots at a time.

The text to the side says "He dropped three more in— all at once. Schwick! They just fit through the slot.

A second picture is in the other corner, there are now ballots everywhere as George enthusiastically stuff as many as he can inside.

The text to the side says "He wondered how many ballots he could fit into the box."

why did you invent a whole religion you don't even believe in just to be homophobic like you legit took christianity, took everything out except the heterosexuality and vibes and based your entire account around it lol

also p sure someone beat you to the name 19 yrs ago i like their a lot better

Urban Dictionary Definition:

Aiism

A philosophy (or sometimes religion) that has only one guideline: to love other creatures unconditionally. There is really nothing else to the religion. It needs nothing else, really. It is based on the idea that "Love Is All You Need." Aiists are accepting of everything, so many use Aiism as an extension to the religious group they belong to.
I am Aiist, and I love you.

I'm kinda Christian-Aiist, really.
