Call out bigotry, hate & intolerance on here, when you see it, folks. Let others know who to block & report. Making this site better for Black people (& other targeted folks) makes it better for everyone.

The anti-Blackness on this site is omnipresent and uncontrolled, and it keeps getting worse. And every time it gets pointed out, white people keep deflecting to another marginalization they experience. But Black people still aren’t safe just being Black here. That’s that on that.

This bird knows something deep about you that can only be revealed at midnight at the crossroads. Bring salt, the hair of your enemy, and birdseed.

Most of the takes I am reading on having a last minute change of candidate are coming from folks who feel they will be fine either way. I managed to survive the first time, many didn’t. Many of us would not survive the stated plans for another term(s). Let us not orchestrate our own defeat.

It is July, election is in November. What if we supported the guy who already won against that asshole once and saved the debate over his physical fitness until after he’s won? Then he can step down and Kamala can take the wheel? Rather than tossing everything in the air 4 months out.

She says, "This could fix me" and it's literally just open communication. "This could fix me" and it is a moment of sincere personal revelation and vulnerability. "This could fix me" and it's letting go of the child he was, all of the children she's been since, and the person they tried to become.

Everybody freaking out about extrajudicial killings is going to lose it when they find out about the existence of cops.

I literally warned y'all about exactly this kind of harmful outcome from GPT integrations, & even told you *why/how* it'd happen. And if it's showing in résumé sorting, then bet it's about break as having been happening in patient portals & police reports & lending application sorters & on & on & on

The absolutely wild thing is: This goes for ALL social aid. Just *giving people some fucking money,* literally going "OK, how much did you need?", cutting checks, and waving them out the door? COSTS LESS and HAS BETTER OUTCOMES than the current system's bureaucracy and means testing, EVERY TIME.

With alt-text because THIS IS LITERALLY EVERYONE’S EXPERIENCE & I FUCKING HATE IT. Being disabled is a godsdamn full time job battling different agencies all damn day. #NEISvoid

Illustrators, have you received an email from Art Lab Agency praising your art & asking if you'd be interested in working together? They disclose that it's "not a free service" but that's putting it mildly: what they're pitching is a "mentorship + representation program" costing £3500.

Donald Sutherland at occupy Vancouver. RIP to the legend.

I belong in the second group. I have slave owning ancestors and continue to benefit from an unjust system and systemic racism. Learning and acting for change.

Today, on Juneteenth, if you are a descendant of a formerly enslaved person I invite you to take a moment to acknowledge, mourn, and cherish all it means. If you are a descendant of a people who benefited from slavery I invite you to explore what steps remain to address the legacy of that injustice.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

I wondered why I was seeing all the cricket posts. Feeling really bad for Pakistan right now.

Holy fucking shit. The US Cricket team just beat Pakistan. To put that in perspective, it would be like the Pakistan National Cricket team beating the Lakers. In basketball.

Kamala being on Hot Ones and just housing wings the whole time would go a long way to getting people to like her tbh

WHAT I MUST HAVE SOME (I don't drink beer but Krissy does and anyway I 100% need that can)

hey @scalzi.com, maybe not as big news as winning an award for KPS, but a brewery in Denver (Fiction Beer Company) is releasing a beer on Saturday inspired by Starter Villian - Typing Spy Cats. They're also hosting a cat adoption event
