trans rights
on some otherwise inconsequential day a decade and a half ago, i idly put my first mobile phone into one of my two trouser pockets, and that choice unknowingly informed actions that i would perform dozens of times every day for the rest of my life

Much love to all of my trans, nonbinary and gender-nonconforming friends and acquaintances on the transgender day of remembrance. 🏳️‍⚧️

Trans rights are human rights. Here's to a brighter and less bigoted future.

Okay, so the hollow is in the 'sliding down ladder' animation, and this spot is directly below the ladder up to where the firebomb hollows are. I think that the enemy may have hit the 60fps sliding down ladder bug and gotten stuck in the animation, phasing through all of the collision.
lol has anyone ever seen this happen before? it’s a first for me and I’m not sure how it even happened

Really enjoying Strange Horticulture by @badvikinggames.bsky.social, and will probably go straight onto the sequel when I finish. I love cataloguing stuff - which the game makes so satisfying - and discovering secrets, which are in constant supply. Also love that it's set in a fantasy Lancashire lol

when non-americans say that trunk or treating and tailgate parties are weird and discomforting, it’s not that we can’t understand that they’re fun. it’s because you’ve seemingly destroyed all other social spaces, and now routinely gathering in parking lots surrounded by cars is bizarrely normalised

the only reason why i believe that kier starmer, the current leader of the labour party and prime minister of the uk and ireland, is not a paedophile? it's because he's never fucked. he is a fuckless individual. that man has never fucked.

bounding towards you on all fours, wearing grinch crocs on both of their feet and both of their hands, is someone wearing an incredibly realistic grinch costume. or, hell... #naddpod
What I just received in a marketing email is nothing short of an assault on decency, aesthetics, and the sanctity of Samhain. Disgusting!

@raxkingisdead.bsky.social we must stop this green menace.

going directly from "there are no adults in the room" to "everybody is 12" with no steps in between

Apart from the far, far greater number of people online now compared to “the old internet”, one thing that we used to be able to do a lot better was moderation. Forums had smaller scope, and better ability to deal with agitators, crazies and bad actors. Shit got shut down a lot more effectively.
Have you noticed how there used to be this idea that people are dicks online due to anonymity. Then, once the old anonymous Internet was mostly gone people remained dicks. Possibly got dickier?

I don't think the anonymity theory was entiiiirely wrong though?

it's too late, i've already depicted myself as a cool-ass dinosaur, and you as a terrified pissbaby
Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

i'm the kind of nerd to own the .com and .co.uk domains for their own name but even for me it feels really lame to have either of them as my bluesky name

i may be a fussy bitch, but i like my political candidates to exhibit the kind of long-term thinking that doesn't result in them getting nazi tattoos
"It's hard to find a worthwhile senate candidate without a Nazi tattoo"

No it isn't? That isn't true???

i like it when big, sensible, adult political decisions result in billions of suddenly available great british pounds going towards absolutely necessary bombs and missiles. i do not like engaging in any discussions about spending more on the nhs or transport because where would the money come from

Feels like, I dunno, maybe it might be a good plan if we associated this obviously bad and increasingly unpopular idea with the politician whose entire career has been telling us it would be a good idea

instead of having to work or do literally anything, ICE could send a handful of AI generated videos of them beating up civilians to trump - the same exact videos, everyday - and they’d get paid because he’s fucking stupid and wouldn’t know the difference. but they don’t, because they’re fascists.
A former ICE director says agents have been put "in a terrible position" and are being tasked with operations "in a city where they don't belong."
Ex-ICE director says Trump's immigration crackdown putting agents in "terrible position"
Federal agents deployed tear gas on a crowd in Chicago, prompting a judge to ask the agents to wear body cameras.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

lol bluesky blocklists are great, love the fact that i was blocking the official whitehouse account before i knew it existed

big tech and ai harvesting all of my personal info is bad, yes. targeted advertising is bad, yes.

the thing is, they're just so fucking bad at it. i have money and like things. make me more aware of music or films or games i haven't heard of and might like and i'll probably spend some money.
