My God

I'm a girl...

I'm a GIRL

I'M A GIRL

The world is beautiful and lovely and silly and I love my friends and I'm a girl!!!

I've spent my life needing...

I've spent my life asking just to get by

Asking for things I hate

I looked in the mirror and tried to ignore the stranger staring back

I wish him the best

But now I see only me

Now I'm beautiful and ugly and soft and fat and bubbly and pretty and imperfect and ME

Now I want

I want I want I WANT

I want to run and jump and talk and scream and love and fuck and make

I want to crawl to the roof and yell

"Hello world this is me and I am a GIRL"

I was scared before

Not that the world would reject me

Not that the world can be cruel and unjust

But that I could be wrong

That it wasn't my place to speak

That the blankness was just what living was like

I'm a boy

I'm not a boy?

I am?

I'm a girl?

I'm a girl

I'm a GIRL

I want the world to understand how pretty it is

Once it knows itself

That poor little kid

She hated himself

And didn't even know it

She latched onto others

In the hopes they'll give him what she wants

He'd do anything

To keep them from leaving

I want to help them

Why else would they like you

Because

Because...

BECAUSE

BECAUSE I'M WORTH LOVING

Because I am so much

I am human and full of wonder and flaws and dreams and anxiety and callousness and kindness

Because my friends all knew me before I did

I needed you to tell me I could be loved

Now I want you to tell me you love me

I want to carve my love into slices

I want to share those slices with the world

I had to take so much

I have so much to give

Now I can shout

With love

I'm a girl

I'm a girl

I'm a girl

Solstice Rain 2: Winter Scar first mission models!!

Well it took extra long for a whole host of reasons, but we finally have the models for the first mission of the Winter scar campaign I'm running! For clarity, this is an extension of the Solstice Rain campaign run by @l-mop

First off, Rustbucket (Everest LL2) and Talk to the Hand (Empakaai LL2) have some new widgets and gear.

While Cosine has evolved into 2PiR (Balor LL2) now becoming a defensive drone build

Lastly the two new members to the party. We have Dog of a Day (Minotaur LL2 piloted by @l-mop) and Evolution by Shock (Death's Head LL2) one is a new player but you might recognize the other one's pilot from the start of this post :P

And Lastly group shot! not depicted is the replacement Everest for Talk to the Hand because it blew up AGAIN.

Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.

i wonder if this whole Calling Typical Misogyny "Porn Addiction" thing wasn't just a successful psyop to shift feminist critique into a right wing framework i.e. trying to make it about "modern degeneracy" and thus paralyzing discourse on the root issue

[ganondorf]

everything these people claim is "porn addiction" is literally just misogyny. porn could be dismantled globally and men will still view and treat women as sexual property because surprise! turns out men have expected sexual subservience from women loooong before porn ever existed

Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers

A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previou

[ayeforscotland]

Let’s fucking go

[made-in-manetheren]

This is HUGE.

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

TL;DR Google reeeeeally stepped in it this time.

incredibly minor but still dumb side effect of late stage capitalism: ever notice how so many concert venues and stadiums just have the lamest names imaginable. Like ooooh Lady Gaga is playing at the..... Mortgage Stadium? Oh boy the finals are at the.... Chase Bank arena. Can't wait to catch a game at the Garunteed Rate field.

[bedupolker]

yes this exactly

don’t abandon joy because it is brief. don’t commit to solitude because happiness is fleeting. it’s okay that good things do not last forever. it’s okay to simply enjoy a thing for as long as you have it.

AAAnd we got more mechs

Most of the mechs this time are slight redesigns. but let's talk about the new ones first, the HA Gilgamesh and the IPS-N Vlad. Despite looking pretty normal, they both had much weirder body shapes then I remembered. P happy w/ the results

Lastly we have SLIGHT adjustments to the SSC Amber Phantom and IPS-N Raleigh (to get them more in line with their posing in the official Key-Art) and a more substantial redesign of the HA Sunzi to bring it more in line with the mech's shape and color use. Much happier w/ the new Sunzi.

not even two years after the 2024 racist riots and attempted pogroms, we are back to more racist riots and attempted pogroms.

a mosque in scotland had to be put into lockdown. they are going door-to-door with hit lists and addresses in northern ireland, setting houses alight. they firebombed an imam's house in manchester. people of colour are being targeted and attacked by racist mobs in the street in broad daylight.

and instead of widespread condemnation or wall-to-wall coverage, the UK media and political establishment is filling air time talking about the "legitimate concerns" people have about "illegal migrants"

sometimes I think about how far we still have to go with consent

my worst relatives try to sneak meat or meat products into my food despite the fact that I'm a vegetarian

my ex's brother gave his mother an edible without her knowledge and when she got freaked out and paranoid they laughed, and people I've told that go "yeah that's shitty but it's just weed"

when I go to the doctor and ask them to describe what they are going to do before touching me they get frustrated

when I ask a friends of a friend who is a small influencer to keep me out of frame in videos they film for social media in public they look at me like I've pissed in their cereal

idk man, we've got a long way to go.
