That fact that you're not 100% sure if this is satire or not speaks volumes.

Since everyone is rightly focused on the Epstein files, now would be a good time to remind you:
Child marriage is legal in 34 states across the US. That’s almost 70% of this nation.
How about we end that?

If you ever wonder why your artist friend is so pissed off whenever they see AI slop used instead of real, human-created art, it's exactly what you think:
How is AI *really* impacting jobs?
Henley Chiu, the CTO of Revealera, a jobs data analysis firm, analyzed 180 million jobs listings in 2024 and 2025, in an effort to find out. Chiu found an:
-8% drop in all jobs postings
-~30% drop in art, photography, writing jobs
-22% drop in journalism jobs

What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

Hey. This is the BEST POSSIBLE SEASON to badger Visa and Mastercard into fucking off about their shitty fake-moral-panic over LGBTQ+ spending habits and content on retail platforms.
Fuck ALL THE WAY OFF, VISA and Mastercard. No one wants to hear jack shit from you. You're a fucking receipt printer.

globally, indigenous people are left out of the conversation when it comes to OUR land. they treat us like WE'RE incompetent. lift indigenous voices WORLDWIDE.
This was Alessandra Korap Munduruku this morning. She lives in the Brazilian state where COP is taking place this year! She was not given a pass into the Blue Zone.
These are the voices you should be listening to, boosting, and celebrating. Not the politicians who are attending #COP30!

love the current AI disclosure meta of "we have to disclose it or else Steam will let people refund our game at any point but we are not gonna take that lying down" so they add some pathetic attempt at heart-string tugging. Anno 117 and ARC Raiders btw

im aware that im an outlier in how much i emphasize trans womanhood but literally nobody benefits from feeling shame around being trans. it does not help you and you CAN overcome it. i s2g some of you bitches talk about being trans like it's a dirty word and you gotta get over that shit.
even if the world is mean and cruel i still think there's good in accepting yourself

Online Safety Act going great, they brought in an urgent care doctor to caution the Brits going cold turkey from porn. She warns of mass insomnia. I wish I were joking.
Porn is not a drug. Masturbation releases the dopamine. Neither is bad. We are in the craziest sex panic of my life.

this goes right along with my theory that the AI obsession in *users* is often bc…
1. they were never educated (esp "ipad generation") & don't know how computers work
2. our tools and services are all SO AWFUL NOW, degraded at best, actively user-hostile at worst

Sick to my stomach that the President being mixed up with a horrifying global network of pedophiles is considered a 'voter issue' and not something the whole world needs to know about and people need to be prosecuted for.
Only reason anyone would want people to ignore Epstein is if you're involved

The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.
