The Amnesty International report that JK Rowling is trying to censor through legal threats.

It can also be found on Google Drive here and on Bluesky here.

[cbarc]

Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.

The Catalogue of Ships in the Iliad is, to a modern audiences, what classicists have called “boring as hell,” but I can’t help but think that if you were watching Homer recite it it would have been more like when comedians go, “anybody here tonight from Chicago?” and the Chicagoans in the back start cheering

Homer’s like, “and there were forty black ships from… LOCRIS” and the Locrians in the crowd start going absolutely nuts

it really is quite bad for your military to have an image of itself as a warrior class. what you really want is for your soldiers to think of themselves as boring professionals who will fill out a report form if someone gets a little too warrior ethos out there

The thing about Miss Piggy is that she kind of has a Roger Rabbit comedy superpower where she wins nearly any conceivable fight she's in. But unlike other characters of which that's true, like say, Bugs Bunny, who tend to win because they make the opponent play the game with their rules, Miss Piggy wins because the joke is that she can beat the shit out of literally anybody.

Bugs Bunny beats Thanos by setting up an airport and making him take off the Infinity Gauntlet to go through the metal detector.

Miss Piggy beats Thanos by karate chopping him in the face and sending him flying.

Listening to Hotel California on the store radio and they muted the word "kill" when he says "but they just can't kill the beast" like what are we doing here has humanity not suffered enough

[were--ralph]

Update: they played it again and also muted "stab" from the line "they stab it with their steely knives". Insane.

[were--ralph]

They fuck it with their steely knives but they just can't fuck the beast

I consider myself a real hater but sometimes you really do go too far with haterism. once I had to break mutuals with someone bc they hated the entire art form of poetry and the final straw was when they started hateposting about soup. The food

hi op. every time I see this post I hear it in her voice

Still firm on my idea that we should ban advertising.

[elbiotipo]

In the Biotipist People's Republic the only advertistments you would get would be giant posters of Yuri Gagarin telling you to support space exploration.

There is this artwork (by British artist Marcus Coates) at Utrecht Centraal train station that I adore. Every day it shows a new fact about what's happening in nature on that day. For example in this picture I took last month, the sign says:

14/03 Today in nature: Litte moorhens start constructing their nests.

It never fails to cheer me up when I walk by there :3

[kropotkindersurprise]

20/05 Today in nature: The first red deer calf is born.

[kropotkindersurprise]

17/06 Today in nature: Bats are active again and catch thousands of insects at night.

[kropotkindersurprise]

15/08 Today in nature: The moles cast out their young.

21/08 Today in nature: Young bats are starting to catch insects by themselves, and no longer rely on their mothers' milk.

07/09 Today in nature: The last Common Branded Skippers (Hesperia Comma butterflies), show themselves while flying around.

Happy Moles Cast Out Their Young Day to all who participate!

Fact-checked this and it's basically accurate, although the facts are slightly off. The whole affair is also somehow worse than the post makes it sound.

The Zionist gang that murdered Bernadotte, Lehi, was active from 1940 to 1948. In May 1948, most of the gang's active members were inducted into the IDF and Lehi itself was formally dissolved. Some months later, several members of the officially dissolved but still functionally intact gang decided to assassinate Bernadotte to prevent any possibility of peace between Israel and the Palestinian people.

After the assassination, the Israeli government did arrest 200 Lehi members and declare the group a terrorist organisation. However, all those arrested were pardoned, the Israeli government later invented a military honour for them called the Lehi Ribbon, and the former Lehi leader who approved the assassination, Yitzak Shamir, later became prime minister of Israel.

Additional fun fact about Lehi: in the early stages of World War II they considered Nazi Germany a lesser threat to Jews than Great Britain, and they tried at least twice to ally with the Nazis and Fascist Italy.

So yeah, the gang of literal Nazi sympathisers who murdered a diplomat who had saved hundreds of Jews from the Holocaust were either recruited into the IDF or at best pardoned and honoured, and their leader was elected to run the fucking country. That's the state of Israel for you.

Perisex trans people become intersex allys NOW or I am going to kill you

"males and females" "AFABs and AMABs" "TMEs and TMAs" "You're TME, you'll never understand how scary it is to be a girl with a penis in the women's bathroom" (said to me, person who was literally beat up in middle school for being a girl with a penis in the girl's bathroom) "AMABs can never get cervical cancer, that's an AFAB only thing" "they won't let trans kids have hormones, but they'll give them to cis kids for free" "you can't be cis and trans at the same time" you can't be transfem and transmasc" "You can't be transfem if you were AFAB" "You can't be transmasc if you were AMAB" "RMAB and RFAB? Now you're just making things up" "All intersex people are biologically nonbinary" "I want to transition into intersex" "I'm such a b*eddel/f*ta/h*rm" "You're intersex? I'm so jealous, that means you get an easier transition right?" "I wish I was intersex, then I could get myself pregnant" "Trans people are brain intersex" "So what does it look like?"

shut up Shut Up SHUT UP, my new rule is that until a perisex person has at very least read the interACT faq, they are not allowed to talk about intersex topics at all! And if they spout bullshit after doing that then I'm going to start biting!!!!!

July 23, 2026 - The head of Police Station No. 1 in Tirana, Albania, got egged in the face after pepper-spraying innocent protesters. Protesters have been in the streets for weeks against government corruption that enabled a Jared Kushner-linked tourist development in a protected nature preserve. [video]
