This is a good time to remind people that the similarly overused less lethal weapon tear gas is super dangerous for pregnant people. Every politician that is antiabortion or proclaims wanting to protect children should be vehemently against use of these weapons as crowd control.

These threats are grim, disgusting and unacceptable.

They’re really common among anti-trans obsessives.

Which is why they were banned so often from social networks. It wasn’t censorship, it was standards.

Removing those rules has only emboldened hate:

The weekend the movie opened, I went to a STAR TREK convention where the general consensus was "Let's do everything we can to make sure this is one STAR TREK story that never comes true!"
Another species no longer on the global Endangered list:
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae).

A few decades after a Star Trek movie where the central conflict was the total extinction of the humpback, their numbers are rising fast enough to put them at "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List.

Already run into kids who, when seeing my wildlife photos, exclaim 'that's AI'
I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

Do you love Anne Rice's vampire chronicles? I do! I've loved vampires ever since I read Interview with the Vampire in High School. I particularly loved the vampire protagonists, how they existed in a space that was very human and relatable.

Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now.

We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

I gotta be real, I did not suspect we would reach "roving mobs of white folks chanting "shame" at ICE" within 9 months, and it really feels like a sign of how much more horrifying it must be on the ground than those of us not there can even imagine.
