all of my hobbies can be described as "i don't know of it's cool or i should bully you about it" and both would be objectively correct. he/him (probably); trans rights are human rights.

given today’s news about the US rolling back fuel economy standards, I feel much affirmed in yesterday’s purchase of a used ev. and I got to meet goats

This option is gone now, so now you always need to delete the “?” and everything after it in every yet link to lessen the tracking”

i had already disabled this once, just checked and it was on again on my new phone. so it seems that it automatically enables this when you reinstall the app

my boyfriend’s crazy russian friend coined the term “boy smell”, which is apparently “anal lube and wd-40”. what am i supposed to do with this information?

I will add pressure to this by saying that any company that claims to not hold onto your personal data after verifying you? They're lying. Ive been nitro free since the first time they tried this, voice how you feel with your wallet people. Make them really feel that squeeze.

I was trying to get through to one of the staff of this site yesterday but like, this is psychosis. The people who run this site think AI is alive. How do you come back from this

The replies are like "I'll just pirate it!" and I'm sure all your trans friends and associates are happy to know you're still a fan of the woman who's made it her life goal to ruin their lives, you just don't want to pay her for it.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Deleting the post where, from what I saw, people mostly said they were disappointed, but then having this post devolve into a pro-ai circlejerk is more telling than the original decision to give money to anthropic ever was.

fuck me, waymo wants to start driving in my city, and almost all comments are idiots jerking themselves off about how great this’ll be and that the naysayers are the reason we’re stuck. JFC, you people the reason we are where we are, because you give companies endless grace despite everything

I was hoping for your help with something. (Please RT for reach.) Is there a particular font that’s instantly recognizable to someone who lives where you do, and appreciated/recognized/hated there, but completely unknown elsewhere? Road signs, street names, transit, infrastructure, stuff like that?

as a kid I liked math and thought I was good at it and then I got to college and learned that real math is contemptuous of numbers and it confuses and terrifies me

My 4-year/old just learned about the concept of infinity and is now throwing a tantrum over it. “It’s weird! I don’t like it. I just want numbers to stop!”

Amnesty UK have apologised to JK Rowling for rightfully calling out her anti-rights rhetoric. Shame on them. A human rights organisation should not cave to pressure from billionaires, especially those who wish to make supporting human rights a terrorist offence. xoxo BASH BACK

Remember folks, if buying isn’t ownership, piracy isn’t theft.

renovated my kitchen and managed to create something heretofore unknown to humanity: a kitchen with more storage space than I know what to do with, and a lack of digital clocks!

Look, even if you’re not in the area (like me), this thread still has amazing cat pictures 🥰

derek guy@dieworkwear.bsky.social

Hello! 👋 I'm hoping to raise money for two Bay Area cat rescues. If you post a screenshot of you donating at least $20, I will answer a style-related question for you. But first, let me tell you about the rescues, why they're worthy of your support, and hopefully get you to adopt a cat. 🧵

I get the impression that some people aren't clear what this means. This is the UK state deciding to intervene directly in the healthcare of individual children, depriving them of medicine that their doctors have prescribed for their personal health & wellbeing, in defiance of global best practice.

Update: Young people & families today received shocking & transphobic letters from NHS. These letters tell people that endocrine care (blockers / HRT) is being fully withdrawn in 7 weeks time (July 31st). Forced medical detransition. This country is a danger to trans children & young people.

if you want to know how gaming with friends is going - I just rage-quit a VOIP client for the first time in my life because it sucked so bad (Mumble). To put that into perspective, I administer Microsoft Teams for a living.
