"Every single person in my store is supportive and accepting of who I am, including my boss, the other managers, and every colleague in every part of the store. At times my workplace is the only safe space in my life which is a bit sad."

One of my very best Internet friends, whom I've known since 2017, @atheopagan.bsky.social, has passed away. I will miss her dearly.

@atheopagan.bsky.social was a dear friend of mine. She was a brilliant and insightful, if some times cantankerous, philisophical sparring partner who really helped me get through a chromic illness that disabled me for much of the last year. I am deeply saddened by her loss and will miss her a lot.

Warum der Kampf der fossilen Lobby in die nächste Stufe geht?

Weil sie gerade kurz davor sind, fast alle Errungenschaften des 🇪🇺 Green Deal entweder abzuschaffen oder bis zur Wirkungslosigkeit zurückzubauen – umgesetzt von CDU/CSU & befeuert von Springer.

I spent 72 hours checking the posting times of every Gazan account I saw fundraising. More than 2/3 of them were inconsistent with Gaza but consistent with Myanmar or Cambodia, where hundreds of thousands of people are trafficked into doing scam work under threat of violence or death.

"why don't straight men and lesbians hang out like straight women and gay men do" the difference is that unlike straight women and gay men who both like men, lesbians like women and straight men like each other

Keir Starmer: I've already returned over 24,000 people with no right to be here. And I won't stop there. twitter user: @grok Is this post misleading? Grok: The claim of white genocide in South Africa is highly debated. Some evidence, like reports of farm attacks and political rhetoric, suggests violence against white farmers...

Young WOMEN have turned to the left compared to older women.

Recent graph on Trump approval provides good example.

You know, AI is kind of the ultimate calcification of tradition. Thinking is too hard, developing your own perspective and consciousness is not something that's really tested for or graded, so aggregate all the existing writing on a topic and tweak it a bit. Regurgitate, recycle, retrench, reify.
