He’s a musician

There's always something sincere and lovely about seeing animals, especially dogs, experience things like trampolines and whatever the hell you'd call this thing. He's figured out how to make it make the noise and he's having a blast! Peace and love on Planet Earth, etc. etc.

Forget unrequited love, you know what's really tragic? requited love but they're doomed by the narrative. It doesn't matter that they love each other, it doesn't matter how hard they love, they were doomed from the start.

Comparison is never useful. In no way. It's not fair, your lives have not been the same, your priviledge or lack thereof have not been the same, your DNA is not the same, your hardships are not the same. That person is not you, not similar to you. You have been trough a lot, and you're still here, trying, putting in effort. Don't hurt yourself for no reason.

a man self immolated in front of the israeli embassy in washington dc yesterday. not just any man. an active member of the us air force. he live streamed his death, and said that he refused to be complicit in a genocide any longer. he said that compared to what palestinians were facing every day, setting himself alight was nothing.

let me reiterate. an active duty air force member burned himself alive because he was so disgusted by what the us government was openly supporting. he live-streamed his own suicide, so the whole world could bear witness as a man in his military uniform set himself on fire to protest his government’s complicity in the horrors that we have all been forced to watch happen in real time. he became a new horror. footage of the immolation blurs him out the moment the fire catches, but you can hear him. it is over in seconds, really, but you can hear him screaming. he shouts “free palestine” until his body physically cannot make any sounds other than guttural screams of agony. and then he falls silent. a police officer arrives and points a gun at his still burning body, shouting at him to get down on the ground. and it is over.

his name was Aaron Bushnell. he was twenty five years old. and he isn’t here anymore because the political ruling class has decided that genocide is perfectly fine as long as it preserves imperialism. in the coming days, people will try to discredit him. to say that he was mentally unstable. they will try to bury his actions to save face and defend israel’s propaganda. do not let them. aaron knew what he was doing. he knew what he was doing when he put on his military uniform, set up his twitch stream, and made his final walk up to the embassy. he knew what would happen to him when he flicked that lighter. do not let them forget. aaron’s blood is on the hands of the political ruling class.

just imagine running on a platform of "actually I think more kids should get lead poisoning" in 2024

Okay, the unfunded part isn’t great, but the mandate absolutely is.

But the GOP mindset is so poisoned that they’re incapable of admitting something suggested by a Democrat is good. Especially if it requires regulations.

He's also lying about the unfunded part.

"The White House said Tuesday’s announcement includes $3.2 billion for what’s known as the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund that can be used for upgrades to water treatment plants, water distribution and piping systems, and lead pipe replacement. It also includes $1 billion for seven major rural water projects and $1 billion in support for Great Lakes drinking water projects."

Vice President Kamala Harris is announcing another $5.8 billion for water infrastructure projects nationwide, paid for by one of the Biden a

Since it wasn't mentioned yet: The majority of kids who experience lead poisoning are Black, because decaying lead pipes are often found in disinvested cities with large Black populations. Politicians who oppose replacing lead pipes do so, in my opinion, because they don't feel that protecting Black children is "worth it."

Note also that the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund is a stable and established federal loan program -- I believe it's been active since 1996? And (I'm simplifying, but) as a revolving fund, the monies used by awardees are to be paid back to the fund and redistributed to future awardees ad infinitum -- making this also a very sustainable and long-lasting investment.

A reminder for those of us with cats at Easter that lilies of ANY kind are BAD for cats. Some species such as Calla, Peace and Peruvian do not cause kidney damage or death like Easter and daylilies, but they can still cause irritation and gastrointestinal issues if ingested...

Hey this is really really fucked up. Can we talk about this because holy shit

One Indigenous artist said the process of using their art to train AI models that competes with them for work is a ‘very colonial mindset’.

skeletonflower

“People are training artificial intelligence on Indigenous art without the artists’ permission to create inauthentic works, which are selling online on platforms run by companies such as Adobe and eBay.

Indigenous artists in Australia say their work is being stolen and turned into another threat to their livelihoods and cultures while they are already struggling to compete with the tens of millions of dollars worth of fake art produced every year by non-Indigenous artists.”

typosandtea

Another awful thing about this is that indigenous artworks are often a storytelling medium, Ai would certainly not be able to recognise this, and would just be spitting out meaningless patterns that look close enough to an unsuspecting buyer :(

Ai is not just taking the profits, but its also removing the indigenous from their own art. 🇦🇺 (Sad that there is not an indigenous flag emoji either)

sometimes the best fanfics are written by middle aged adults with years of writing experience who simply know how to craft a good story. but also sometimes the best fanfics are written by a sixteen year old girl with something deeply wrong with her

trade secret, the middle aged adults with years of writing experience are just the sixteen year old girl with something deeply wrong with her but all grown up

bowditch

sixteen year old girls who feel deeply fucked up: we’re your future. you make it. you get some therapy, get some meds, find new fandom friends, and keep writing. hang in there.
