The amazing Debi Jackson has prepared an "Emergency Response Checklist" for families of trans youth
1959 chevy impala that i made in spore, inspired by @making-you-in-spore
So I've got this friend whose nervous because she's trans and dating this guy who she hasn't told yet because they've only been on a two dates. For this story let's call the friend Jane and the guy she was dating Jason. Happy ending don't worry. So I tell Jane to bring her boy over to a bbq I'm having and she can tell him she's trans at my place surrounded by queer and trans people who love her and will support her if he ends up being awful. She waits till the end of the bbq to tell him the news, by which point the rest of us have learned that Jason is a kind, friendly, empathetic, hard working, dummy. So we sit down, all of us a little worried about this gym bro's reaction when she tells him she's trans, and that she understands if he doesn't want to keep dating her it's no big deal. He's baffled, so we explain what trans is, and after the disclosure that she hasn't had bottom surgery yet... "Oh you have a dick?" "... yeah." He look's around at the room full of people with baited breath, his clearly a little afraid girl friend says "Oooohhhh! I get it! You think- don't worry Babe! Watch this!"
And ya'll this man jumps up, runs into the kitchen and returns with one of the bratwurst we had for grilling and proceeds to tilt his head back, put it down his throat, hold it in his mouth for a moment, and spit it up without even a whisper of a gag and then looks around at the group absolutely beaming with pride. My mans saw his worried girlfriend and her support network and thought to him self "Oh they don't think I can please my girl but I'll show them!"
Toby Fox just put this in his bluesky and I think it’s very important and everyone needs to see it
Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?
The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.
These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.
These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.
Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.
Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.
civic duty
context: the heritage foundation is trying to launder data in support of doge by sending a survey to only their supporters and using blatantly leading questions. the survey takes less than 5 minutes and they don't verify your email
you CAN do it multiple times if you so wish
Oh good we broke the first one. New link is here, same story.

hey folks if you have an android phone: google shadow installed a "security app".

I had to go and delete it myself this morning.
And several others as well. Clear data, disable, uninstall if you can.
Important! Your pet's RFID chip number might have been disconnected this week.
The Texas-based company, Save This Life, has ceased operations and that could become an issue for pet owners.
Is your pet chipped? They should be. Do you know who made the chip?
Pet RFID chips are so small that there's really only room on them for a serial number. When your lost pet is brought to a shelter or a vet's office, they can scan the chip, read that number, and then type it into a program that draws from a series of linked databases to find your name and phone number. That's how they find you, and tell you that Silly Lilly von Wigglesbottom has gone wandering, and she's safe and sound, and would you come get her, please?
Texas-based Save This Life, which provided chips to vets and shelters all across the US, has all at once and abruptly gone dark; their database is just gone. Their customers were not given warning and so did not know to change their registration to another company. A lot of animals have basically become anonymous now.
If you don't know what company you've been using, call your vet's office and ask what pet chip number they have on file. If the chip number starts with 991 or 900164, it's probably a Safe This Life chip.
If it turns out yours is one of the affected cases, the chip itself will still be fine! There's no need to add another, or anything like that. You'll just need to transfer the number to another company, and your vet should be able to recommend the one that they like the best.
The Beast that Bothers
I keep seeing people talking about the “Red Mirage” the idea that it only looks like Republicans are winning and it could still go either way.
I fucking hope so because my anxiety is spiking.
Yes. So here's what happens:
Voting is reported by precinct.
Smaller, more rural precincts finish counting first and report first. These tend to swing much heavier towards R than D.
This makes it look like a state is fully and quickly "going red." This is the Red Mirage.
Bigger, more urban districts take longer to count and may stay open to allow everyone in line to vote. (STAY IN LINE)
As those urban districts, which swing much heavier D, start to report in, we see what the news calls The Blue Shift.
In addition, some states don't allow counting of mail-in/absentee ballots to begin until election day.
Those ballots tend to lean very heavily D.
As those ballots come in, the Blue Shift gets more pronounced.
That's what Trump was complaining about 4y ago about how "oh suddenly at 2 am all these votes out of nowhere." Those were absentee ballots being reported.
Additionally, deep red states are most likely to be called very quickly after polls close. This is why it looks like Trump is way ahead in electoral college votes right now.
The Blue Shift is no guarantee of how a state will eventually go, but don't freak out. This is gonna be a long night, and it may take several days before we know for sure how things will go.
All good and true information. Don't lose hope. Don't panic. It looks scary right now but polls only closed less than two hours ago in the first states. We have a long way to go.
There's also states being "called" with 0% (or less than 10%) of precincts reporting. It's not real. It's a statistical shadow puppet. It may turn out to be related to reality, but what we're seeing now is absolutely Not Real.
also, polling places aren’t opening the whole day tomorrow. make sure you know when your polling places close and open.
Uber and Lyft are offering discounted rides to polls on Election Day. Data shows Texas voters have the longest average commute to polls.
Two things:
If you are in line before the posted closing time, they HAVE to let you vote. It doesn't matter if that line takes two or ten hours to clear. They HAVE to let you in and let you vote. DO NOT GET OUT OF LINE.
If you need a ride to the polls but can't afford Uber or Lyft or gas money, DM me your Venmo and I will send you $10, no questions asked. I unfortunately have limited amounts of capital and can only do this for about 10 people, but I will transfer it to you. You can pay me back by actually going to vote.
Contact your local democratic party, they often give rides to the polls (in my experience)
^ That too. I know they are in my county in Florida.
I don't usually make political posts on this app but this is important, make sure to vote today!
