who’s asking?

Black and white art. a bunch of small birds noisily chasing after a big eagle which is rushing away from them down towards the bottom of the page. This is bird mobbing: the behavior where small prey Birds en masse attack a predator like a hawk or an eagle. By rushing at the predator making lots of noise they can often scare the predator away and occasionally kill it. see the link in the next post. The link above is to the artist's shop if you want to buy a print of this art.

i'm increasingly inclined to go straight to:

these people are just absolutely fucking dumb as shit

pigshit stupid

see also every bsky staff meltdown in the past 2.75 years

it's a whole company made of *coiners*. the fuck did anyone expect.

shout-out to the tumblr ads of AI ladies in thongs, legs spread, flashing front and center.

yknow, the same tumblr that will shadow ban accounts that post any two remotely round shapes next to each other.

If you want to look for attention economy explanations maybe consider the general vanishing of leisure time and the obliteration of people's ability to do things outside of work, which favors mind-numbing slop content like scrolling tiktok over more engaging entertainment like books or games.

from bad to worse lmao

James Baldwin said, “We are a racist society, racist to the very marrow, and we are fighting a racist war... My own condition, as a black man in America, tells me what Americans really feel and really want, and tells me who they really are. And, therefore, every bombed village is my hometown.”

It's obvious, although never explicitly acknowledged and rarely explained in plain, direct language, that in the mind of many politicians and media pundits, the "harm" is not being cisgender.

The emerging “Claude killed the kids” frame on this story shows just how easily anti-AI counterhype can end up doing the government’s work for it. If you use a computer to choose targets—esp. but not only if you give it bad data to work with—and it chooses poorly, that‘s on you, not the computer!

Homeless transfem, intersex, sw, just used some aid from here to buy train tickets to get to Arizona

Could really use some community support to help me with this move.

(If anyone is possibly in Tuscon and would like to welcome me and help me live?)

The plays in my mind every time someone screams at me that she ran a perfect campaign

just saying here that while it should not make a difference, diane was incredibly kind to me as a little 19 year old idiot at a convention and i have never forgotten. please help her out if you can

Alt-text. "Wait, who is that?" or "I have no idea what I’m supposed to notice here…"

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

For all of these game devs that keep coming out saying, "well we had to use AI to generate placeholder images for our game otherwise it wouldn't work."

Listened to this at 6 minutes in or so. It’s not directly stated, but it appears the reason that Mamdani has not directed H+H to absorb trans patients is out of fear of the federal government. “It’s part of the game we have to play with the federal government .”

It’s the EXACT logic NYU is using.

this is so fucking funny

There’s an Indian journalist in Israel right now reporting in Hindi about how bomb shelters in Israel will allow even the pets of Jews in but will not open its doors to the Indian workers our shithole government sent in droves to make up for genocided Palestinian labor. Apartheid regime.

the monsters are sad you won't give them three hundred bucks. don't make monsters sad.

18CAD still needed.

okay so this seems pretty clear. he knows what it is, he did it on purpose, he chose keeping it over his career with the Marines, if we know this then Susan Collins will also know it, it will 100% come up in the general, let's be done talking about this guy as a real candidate

Please I'm currently at $20 of $1000 needed to cover my medication and my phone bill. Im currently bedridden with covid and cant do any delivery work. Any help would mean the world. Thank you 🖤🖤🖤

I've known Kyra for years and she's one of the sweetest, most hardworking people I know. Any time I'd see Chikn Nuggit on my feed, I would be so happy thinking "YAY THAT'S KYRA!!". This was absolutely devastating news to see. Please send Kyra nothing but love. She deserves the world!!

Yeah, I learned about it not long ago, but didn't want to post, cuz, well, not fan of getting targets on my back again, but IowaPulse has a photo of him, and you can match it on his GoFundMe. His huge money troubles started around when he was arrested, so he probably got fired would be my guess.

When I was a content moderator for a large social website there was often actual images of children being sexually abused that needed to be reported to the authorities.

Our queue for those reports included THOUSANDS of “loli/shota” art that delayed us getting to the real harm for days at a time.
