i kinda like how eugene stoner and mikhail kalashnikov had a relationship that modern fujos would describe as "old man yaoi" it really does settle the whole "M16 vs AK" fight...why would u pit two lovers against one another?

“Haha can you believe McDonalds is doing a Squid Game promo” easily yes because capital subsumes all critiques of itself and no popular TV show or piece of art will ever threaten or unsettle it

i saw puppeteer scott land perform live once. for one segment he rigged a raw chicken onto marionette wires. it picked up an american flag and danced its way into a kfc bucket. i think about this a lot lately.

There's a steady trickle of shitGPT bots coming in to post incoherent nonsense in the replies to posts with certain keywords, too. Some of them are hostile, some of them effusively positive, some of them just argumentative. Block them when you spot them, maybe report them to whatever labelers.
So about ten years ago I found a small network of bots on Reddit dedicated to spreading hate. The thing about it is that these weren't even responding to political topics - they were just responding to random keywords with insults and hate.

The same bots are now here. You should understand why. 🧵
this is kind of a niche issue but: if you are getting weird and hostile responses that feel a little off, there are some folks on here making accounts that automatically reply to large quantities of posts in a vaguely hostile manner. you can ignore them, and also, it's not personal

This is Theo. He's always looking out for his older sister Mia. Sometimes that means simply making sure she gets enough pets at day care. 13/10 for both

remember, folks, posting is not that serious. it really isn't. it's not activism

exclusively posting about things that upset you will slowly surround you with undiluted negativity that'll make you miserable regardless of how ethical your social media is. be silly with friends, make art, have fun

The national political landscape has changed, but what does that mean for libraries?

Alan's advice: Don't panic. Be prepared.
