anytime you make a post about how people should stop using Spotify because it fucking sucks, someone pops in from from the Discover feed about how there's no alternative and ignores that you can just buy music or use another streaming service that isn't doing this shit. Anyway, stop using Spotify

The Jolly Postman holds such a specific and special place in my memories. The excitement of all those letters.

Why doesn't the world stop when children are being starved. Why does anything matter more than that. I just don't understand and feel completely sick

Israel is starving an entire generation of Palestinian children in Gaza, pushing children to the imminent brink of death. Many have already starved to death. No one can be silent right now. All the public pressure in the world needs to be applied to demand that Israel allow aid into Gaza immediately

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

This feels relevant.
Man on couch: "I'm all for ending this oppressive system but only if we can do it without violence." Man opposite: "So... By magic?"

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven
Header text: "HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!" This is followed by a couple example urls, with a red square highlighting the sections with source identifiers. The rest of the text is as follows: Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity. When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers. Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="

Neil Young is insane. With only a handful of exceptions he’s released an album every single year since his career started in the late sixties. And I thought pot was supposed to destroy your work ethic..

Could we not keep making Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds, two of the actual best Star Trek series in the canon, instead of cancelling them too soon and replacing them with stuff people have said for years they’re not keen to see? What are we doing here?

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids.

Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Time to post it again.
A meme from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In the top panel, one man labeled "literally every company" hands a plate labeled "AI" to a man labeled "me." In the bottom panel, the man labeled "me" nonchalantly tosses the plate down the hallway, discarding it with casual disdain while the first man watches.
