Daniel Sloss SAID IT THANK YOU DANIEL SLOSS
Reblogging again now that Russell Brand's ugly mug is back in the news to remind everyone that in the 2023 Times expose on his abusive behaviour, Daniel Sloss was the only male comedian willing to be named and quoted like "yeah that dude's a scumbag and women have been warning each other about him for years."
A new study published online today, April 25, in the scientific journal Science provides the strongest evidence to date that not only is nat
From the article:
“If you look only at the trend of species declines, it would be easy to think that we’re failing to protect biodiversity, but you would not be looking at the full picture,” said Penny Langhammer, lead author of the study and Executive Vice President of Re:wild. “What we show with this paper is that conservation is, in fact, working to halt and reverse biodiversity loss. It is clear that conservation must be prioritized and receive significant additional resources and political support globally, while we simultaneously address the systemic drivers of biodiversity loss, such as unsustainable consumption and production.”
This massive meta analysis (for those not familiar, a study analyzing the results of many studies on similar topics) found that the vast majority of conservation efforts show much much better results than doing nothing. In many cases, biodiversity loss was not only stopped but reversed.
This shows that conservation efforts really work and money invested is put to very good use. Legally protecting endangered species really works, restoring habitat really works, removing invasive species really works, returning land to Indigenous communities works. All of the blood, sweat, and tears being poured into protecting the natural world has been making a real, big, tangible, difference on a global scale.
Some poor suffering gobs!!
we seriously need to stop conceding to the personhood trap when it comes to abortion rights. is a fetus a person? thats a spiritual question. i dont care about the answer. should another person dictate what someone can do with their body? simple answer: no.
like if a fetus isnt a person it has no right to my body and if a fetus IS a peson it also has no right to my body because there is no other context in which we are required to put ourselves at risk of physical harm to preserve another persons safety or even life.
you dont have to save someone from drowning even if youre a strong swimmer. even in death youre not required to donate organs and that could save several people. you can kill someone if you truly believe your safety is at risk. we dont mandate preservation of life over autonomy in any of these circumstances.
How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.
As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.
The author says Wallner broke her NDA by sharing her story with the media, including with New York Magazine.
He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.
He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.
Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.
“India, Israel and United States are natural allies. They have one thing in common, all three are engaged in overt, neocolonial military occupations. India in Kashmir, Israel in Palestine, the United States in Iraq and Afghanistan.” -Arundhati Roy
The last time I posted this with the link to the full video for those who might somehow still be skeptical of a decades long fact was in 2023, which is practically yesterday and still screamingly relevant—and explicit.
What the UK Supreme Court decision has proved is that a wide range of politicians across different political parties do not understand what they're doing at a fundamental level.
In this video, the former Tory Chief Secretary, Simon Clark, essentially blue screens when it's posed to him that there's a risk in forcing trans men to use women's toilets as it can easily be abused by predatory cis men.
He has absolutely no answer, and anyone with one fucking iota of intelligence should have considered the ramifications of the Supreme Court decision.
But for many politicians, it is right wing ideological culture war pish above all else - and any politician who has pushed this line but can't answer this question is utterly incompetent and should be banned from any position of power.
If this is their approach to policy on trans people, it's absolutely their approach in other policy areas. Completely fucking farcical.
To my uk trans people and allies out there.
Where's your evidence for that? Benefits are for the most vulnerable in society. Some MPs are taking the piss with their expenses claims.
remember when elomusk asked one of his rocketship employees to give him sex favors in exchange for a horse
I think this tidbit should be more famous than his exploding cars. It's all I'll ever need to know. A real human man tried and failed to barter with a flight attendant for third base by offering to buy her a horse (that's what girls like, right?)
SpaceX paid a flight attendant $250,000 in severance after she accused Elon Musk of exposing himself and offering to buy her a horse in exch
every time I bring up the horse thing at least a few people haven't heard of it, so I think it's only fair to keep mentioning it for as long as I live
can they make a being hydrated that doesn't have you pissing at emergency levels every 34 minutes
Just a note that actually salt intake is just as important for hydration. Salt is what allows you to retain water, and the more water you drink daily the more sodium gets washed out of your system. If you are drinking and drinking and just pissing it out you need to eat more salt. If your mouth is dry no matter how much you drink then you are actually low on sodium and you need to eat something salty right now.
Trans girls on hormones- this is even MORE true for you if you're on blockers. Spiro's a diuretic, and you will retain less water and sodium as a result. This is why you're craving pickles and salt and vinegar chips and such.
my summertime beloveds
GIRLS ON SPIRO WATCH THAT POTASSIUM INTAKE NOW MORE THAN EVER, that shit is a potassium sparing diuretic
The thing is... Israel admitted to this from the very beginning.
They said the confessions were obtained through 'interrogation' in the Shin Bet aka torture (Shin Bet is where they like to torture Palestinian prisoners for intel) so every country that cut funding to the UNRWA knew from the beginning that Israel was using false forced statements.
The famine in Gaza is partly due to this. Never forget that.
When they say Palestine didn't exist back then. Shakespeare's Othello was published over 400 years ago.
my problem as a writer and as a roleplayer is that I always want characters to do that thing where you hold your hand out, palm to the ground, and kind of tilt it quickly left and right to express uncertainty or a "kinda-sorta"/"yes and no" vibe. but I don't know an official term for this so I always just call it the Noncommittal Hand Waggle
somebody appears to have responded to this post... via the contact form on bandcamp, using the burner email "[email protected]"
It is the sign of the scales. The scales have not settled and they waggle back and forth. Like this like that.
and you know what. I never thought about that before but it's probably right. why the fuck would you tell me this via the bandcamp contact form of all things, and why would you phrase it like you're writing an esoteric treatise encoded via metaphor
