December 24, 11:50 PM / Merry Almost Christmas!!! ^_^

#art #aceattorney
Single page comic in vibrant flat colors and a simple, chibi art style of a crowded Almost Christmas party in the Wright Talent Agency. 1. Digital Clock display saying "11:50 PM" 2. Young Trucy Wright (7 Year Gap) looking at the time and saying "Hey!" 3. She sticks her tongue out as she shakes a wrapped present. 4. Biggest panel, zooming out to show the entire Wright Talent Agency Room. Trucy exclaims "It's almost Christmas!" She is on the couch cuddled against Phoenix, with Edgeworth at her other side. Around them are Iris and Verity chatting, Shaun Fenn drinking egg nog from the carton, and Ema and Eustace passing mugs of hot chocolate. On the center low table is a box of Swiss rolls, and a laptop with Lang on video call. Sitting at either table end are Kay and Gumshoe eating. Missile is dozing under the table, and Larry is passed out drunk in the corner. In the foreground smiling are Franziska and Maya, with Pearl resting her head on Maya's. Mia smiles over the whole room beside Charley.

The attacks on trans rights, which are basic human rights, are a terrible injustice and an attack on truth and fact as well. Everyone should be deeply alarmed and it should be disqualifying for a politician to support such discrimination.

I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.

Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?

This heartfelt and meaningful statement by Portland resident and author Cristina Breshears on another social media platform bears reposting here. I don't think the intent is to idealize Portland but to remind all of us what is important and why. (Posted here with permission.)
For nine nights now, the steady thrum of Black Hawk helicopters has circled over Portland. The sound is constant, invasive; a low mechanical beating above our homes. It’s expensive. It’s intimidating. And it’s unnecessary. Our protests have been largely peaceful. There is no insurrection here. Yet this federalized military presence makes us feel like we are living in a war zone (the very kind of chaos this administration claims to be protecting us from). The irony is painful: it is only this occupation that makes Portland feel unsafe. Each hour of helicopter flight costs taxpayers between $2,000 and $4,000, depending on crew, fuel, and maintenance. Multiply that by multiple aircraft over multiple nights, and you’re looking at hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars burned into the sky. Meanwhile, the Woodstock Food Pantry at All Saints Episcopal Church — which feeds working families, elders, and people with disabilities — has seen its federal funding slashed by 75%. How can we justify pouring public money into intimidation while cutting aid to those who simply need to eat? This is waste, fraud, and abuse in plain sight: * Waste of public resources on military theatrics. * Fraud in the name of “public safety.” * Abuse of the communities that federal agencies claim to protect. Portland is a Sanctuary City. A sanctuary city is not a fortress. It’s a promise — a living vow that a community will protect the dignity and safety of everyone who calls it home. It means that local governments and ordinary people alike will refuse to criminalize survival. That schools, clinics, churches, and shelters will remain safe spaces no matter who you are or where you were born. But the term reaches far beyond policy. It’s an ethic of belonging; a refusal to criminalize need, difference, or desperation. Sanctuary isn’t weakness. It’s courage. It takes moral strength to meet suffering with care instead of punishment, to believe that our neighbors’ safety is bound up in our own, to insist that safety is not achieved through force but through community, inclusion, and trust. It is living Matthew 25:40 out loud and in deed. It is an act of moral imagination and moral defiance. To hold sanctuary is to say: you belong here. When we hold space for the most vulnerable — refugees, the unhoused, the undocumented, the disabled, the working poor, the displaced — we become something larger than a collection of individuals. We become a moral body. We do more than offer charity. We offer witness. We declare that the measure of a nation is found not in its towers or tanks, but in its tenderness. Sanctuary cities are not lawless; they are soulful. They represent the conscience of the nation, a place where the laws of empathy still apply. To make sanctuary is to affirm that the United States is not merely a geographic territory, but a moral experiment: a republic that must constantly choose between fear and compassion, between domination and democracy. A nation’s soul is measured not by the might of its military, but by the mercy of its people. When helicopters circle our skies in the name of order, while food pantries struggle to feed the hungry, we are forced to ask: What are we defending, and from whom? The soul of a nation survives only when we make sanctuary for one another. Not through walls or weapons, but through compassion and collective will. If we allow intimidation to replace compassion, we will have traded our conscience for control. Please know that despite the hum of war machines overhead, the conscience of our city — whimsical, creative, stubbornly kind — can still be heard. Portland is not the problem. Portland is the reminder. A reminder that a city can still choose to be sanctuary. That a people can still choose to be human.

A rewatch of Prospect reminded me again how smart and economical the script is, how good the acting, and how great the worldbuilding, plus the details of space capsules, medic kit, biomatter mining details, etc. Much better than most big budget films. Very highly recommended.

Create NSFW art

Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime

Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art

This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like

Always resist oppression

NEWS: SCOTUS allows Mississippi to enforce a restrictive internet-access law without explanation. Kavanaugh writes to say it is likely unconstitutional but he is voting to allow it, only repeating the legal rule for his reasoning.

No one else wrote a word.

www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES No. 25A97 NETCHOICE, LLC v. LYNN FITCH, ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MISSISSIPPI ON APPLICATION TO VACATE STAY [August 14, 2025] The application to vacate stay presented to JUSTICE ALITO and by him referred to the Court is denied. JUSTICE KAVANAUGH, concurring in the denial of the application to vacate stay. I concur in the Court's denial of NetChoice's application for interim relief because NetChoice has not sufficiently demonstrated that the balance of harms and equities favors it at this time. See Response in Opposition 37-39. To be clear, NetChoice has, in my view, demonstrated that it is likely to succeed on the merits-namely, that enforcement of the Mississippi law would likely violate its members' First Amendment rights under this Court's precedents. See Moody v. NetChoice, LLC, 603 U. S. 707 (2024); Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Assn., 564 U. S. 786 (2011); cf. Free Speech Coalition, Inc. v. Paxton, 606 U.S. _ (2025). Given those precedents, it is no surprise that the District Court in this case enjoined enforcement of the Mississippi law and that seven other Federal District Courts have likewise enjoined enforcement of similar state laws. See No. 1:24-cv-170 (SD Miss., June 18, 2025); NetChoice, LLC v. Yost, 716 F. Supp. 3d 539 (SD Ohio 2024); Computer & Communications Industry Assn. v. Paxton, 747 F. Supp. 3d 1011 (WD Tex. 2024); NetChoice, LLC v. Reyes, 748 F. Supp. 3d 1105 (Utah 2024); NetChoice, LLC v. Bonta, 770 F. Supp. 3d 1164 (ND Cal. 2025); NETCHOICE, LLC v. FITCH KAVANAUGH, J., concurring NetChoice, LLC v. Griffin, No. 5:23-cv-5105 (WD Ark., Mar. 31, 2025); Computer & Communications Industry Assn. v. Uthmeier, _ F. Supp. 3d _ No. 4:21-Cv-438 (ND Fla., June 3, 2025); Net Choice v. Carr, _ F. Supp. 3d — No. 1:25-cv-2422 (ND Ga., June 26, 2025). In short, under this Court's case law as it currently stands, the Mississippi law is likely unconstitutional. Nonetheless, because NetChoice has not sufficiently demonstrated that the balance of harms and equities favors it at this time, I concur in the Court's denial of the application for interim relief.

JFC. 150 arrested now.

In future, when people read how a genocide was allowed to happen in #Gaza, the history books will note that some did take a stand. They included college students, the elderly and the disabled.

Their government labelled them terrorist supporters & arrested them.
A post on X by the Met Police in London, accompanied by a photo of protestors on Parliament Sq. The post says: Arrest update: We’ve now arrested 150 people in Parliament Square. While many of those remaining in the Square are media and onlookers, there are still people holding placards supporting Palestine Action. Officers are steadily working through the crowd making further arrests.

OpenAI is now openly suggesting people use chatGPT for mental health, to „untangle their thoughts” to help them „think more clearly” or if they need to decide whether to „break up with their boyfriend”.

This is unacceptable. Somebody will die. They know that. They don’t care.
