Using the word creator for these people as if we called all those who make shits ācreatorsā of shit.
Definitely not Trump.
Oh goodie, jusr what we need. Rich white cis men discussing (as if they were experts) and trying to control the health decisions and bodies of women, based on their own ignorance, fears, and demands.
They sure are trying to rush the apocalypse, arenāt they.
Coolibar makes these. These are the lightweight hoodie jackets I wear daily.
Devalue, demoralize, demote, and pay us a pittance of our worthā¦
Darn.
Seeing random (poor) people as a source of kidneys sure says a lot about a person.
They probably didnāt bother to get them room and board. Because Trump really cares about the militaryā¦ not.
Is the Q+ for QAnon?
Science? He knows nothing.
Awesome!!!! Canāt wait.
These are so good!
Hate Trump? Love true crime? Make sure to listen to this weekās episode of the Criminal podcast, to hear one of the women Trump assaulted tell her story and fight back. thisiscriminal.com/episode-330-...
Isnāt there the concept of fair use?
Wow, that is a killer cover! š¦
More of this kind of action, please. š¦ š§
And for those of us who arenāt making enough, things are going to be way harder. And hungrier. Everyone should be sending money to their local food bank. Not old food, but money that they can use to distribute the most produce and fresh goods.
Using genAI to ācreateā means one has given up thinking or feeling for oneself, too lazy to learn skills, too scared to challenge oneself and fail, too disconnected from oneās human self to be messy and and real and brilliant. Creativity isnāt in the prompting, it is the doing, again and again.
There is a big difference between āpolitical viewsā and thinking that certain groups of people donāt deserve equal civil rights, freedom, or even life. I cut people off (without hesitation) who have no ethics or morals, whose views and actions are hateful, racist, xenophobic, and dangerous.
A couple cans of spray paint would make an excellent addition to this work.
they think they can just erase trans joy and trans freedom. they can't. they can make things a lot harder and more painful. but that joy and that freedom is not theirs to take and it is incumbent on all good people to say so.
Just a friendly reminder that your desire to have a bookshelf with a rolling ladder is valid. Donāt allow anyone to disrespect you by telling you otherwise.
You are assuming he will allow any kind of election, let alone a fair one.
Note, the news never calls out mass shooters for being cis white men, because that is the norm, the default.
Because, cats.
He canāt fall prey to plagues of his own making fast enough.
Very reminiscent of 60s civil rights history photos. This is not a good thing to revisit.
Meanwhile, teachers all across the US are spending their own money on school supplies. (While her family enjoys the $5 million.)
May his end be long, plague-ridden, and excruciating.
They are killing the voters, because they no longer need them to stay in power.
Itās interesting how big Trump and FIRST are, and way less important and tiny, āAmerican Workers.ā As if Trump had anything to do with American workers other than making things harder for them and making money off their backs.
Do you have the link, I couldnāt find it. Thanks!
Grey, I think I will paint everything greyā¦
It is not ok to try to erase a group of people. Hate against trans people should never be tolerated. www.cnn.com/2025/08/27/h...
I ended up with reactive arthritis from campylobacter. It is no joke.
Good.
We live in a poorly produced dystopian sci-fi series with characters we hate and plot lines that make no sense.
watching a Miss Marple where she's doing this cop's job for him (per usual) and at one point he says to her, "any luck?" and she goes "oh no, inspector, just years of experience," and that's the energy I want to bring to everything from now on
Is there any company more toxic man bro sounding than āMacrohard?ā Or is that a company that builds penis enlargers for insecure tech bros?
Anyone who has worked in customer service knows that we arenāt exactly encouraged to āwaste timeā, and usually donāt have enough staff to support āshooting the shit.ā
They sure are the Do As I Say, Not As I Do party.
Probably also written by gen AI. We are in the Bad Place.
Imagine being such a vain, insecure, troubled, small man that one constantly holds grudges and attacks others to make them feel better about themself?
"objectionable" art (Trump, 2025) = "degenerate" art (Nazi Party, 20s-40s) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degener...
Weāre back to a time where fascist dictators remove art and other content from museums and ban art they find ādegenerateā. Yet another page theyāre following in the Nazi playbook. Book bans already in place, other media being controlledā¦ www.npr.org/2025/08/24/n...
Itās like the First Ammendment has no meaning anymore.
Oh, hell no. Does everything have to be terrible?
That sure is a long-ass tie, and quite the hangdog expression.
They ARE a bunch of crackers, true.
Will this be like when my ex took back every present he ever gave me when we broke up? Trump will take all his bribes and blackmail tithes and the 10% in Intel for himself, personally? Wait, I might let him do that, if it meant he'd leave. Same.
Gorgeous photo and adorable kitty!
Brilliant. As a social media manager, this is a potent example of the positive effect that hiring an effective social media manager can have. Way to go, Newsom's social media team!
The crackers are hoping to bring everything and everyone back to '69, when this very dated logo was created. Including which rights BIPOC folks and women had (or had not).
I think all of this is a way to test drive what he plans to do in the future during elections, making people scared to vote.
I want to share cool posts about nothing important, like food & drink, weird facts and funny stuff, as well as cool art, but then everyday there are posts about atrocities happening that make my soul hurt, and I just can't help but respond, and resist. It's so much terrible, and it keeps coming.
My 1970 Schwinn Breeze (with streamers) is pretty rad.
I've made multiple runs of umeshu, Japanese plum wine. Made with green plums (ume), rock sugar, a spirit of your choice, and a large glass jar. I've done gin, neutral grape spirit, and now I have two runs in my cabinet ā shochu-based and sake-based. #spirits umamimart.com/blogs/main/h...
Now thatās a practical cat. Gets great mileage.
Itās called a death cult for a reasonā¦
Look in your own backyard first, Vance. Release the Epstein files!
Sadly, while the social media is funny, he isn't fighting for all of us. Let's not leave people who are trans behind, otherwise we are just like the MAGA we are trying to fight. We need someone who will represent all Americans, and respect rights for all.
So cute! šø šø
Trump deserves to be mocked. He gives plenty of content for it.
Oh good lord, considering his other hires, expect no usability, readability, accessibility (goodbye alt tags and language options), dark patterns, no browser compatibility, lots of tracking, no privacyā¦ terrible design decisions, the BEST fonts, and lots and lots of GOLD!
I have two accounts for this reason - one for my art, one for the rest of life (including politics) @theplayfulbrush.bsky.social
Rats are way better, even with plague.
The current āAmerica firstā, xenophobic, anti-immigrant, isolationist, racist trend sure isnāt in support of other cultures, countries, or languages. Learning a language is resistance right now.
Completely missing the point that these people need housing, health care, food, work opportunities, and other services that a government can and should provide, and he IS that government. Cruelty is the point. The rich and powerful think they are all that matters, and they won't share.
When it comes to K-POP, I need the whole experience, video, dance, fashion, and everything... not sure the CDs would do it for me on their own...
I'm one of those people who is a Swiss Army knife of creative and techical skills and experience. The list is long. I've worked in a number of career paths. This is why it is so disquieting that genAI is attempting to replace me in each and every one of them. Sadly, I am not rich, I NEED to work.
I worked at a place that wanted to translate their app into different languages, and mentioned using Google Translate to do it... Besides the inaccuracy, this also didn't take into account the gendering and different layers of formality in certain languages. I was like, hella NOPE! Do it right.
This is truly joyful. This is the way! And they should be dancing...
Should be a notice to all evil men in power out there, you are not immune to death. Death comes for all.
Sadly, when it means your survival, you gotta fight all the time. For your bodily autonomy, for your health care, in the workplace, for your familyā¦ and for your right to vote and be representedā¦ because there is always someone who doesnāt see you as a complete person, worthy of equality or rights.
Good on you, Canada!
All evil old men in power should take note, no one is immune from death foreverā¦
I mean, why do a good job, and represent the wishes of all your constituents when you can just ensure that you stay in power forever through repressing voting of those who donāt favor you? Why hold elections at all, really? š
Meanwhile, immigrants struggle to get legal representation in ICE concentration camps. The people deserve the right to be represented. Not Trump.
Iāve gotten to enjoy K-POP and now Ethiopian music videos this week. I am winning. So good.
His voters would vote for his rotting corpse, they are that much of a cult. Laws and restrictions? Neither they nor Trump think they should have to follow those.
If someone is trying to keep you from existing, from getting medical care, jobs, public facilities, etc. you should be able to say whatever you want about that person. @bsky.app this is not the way.
An estimated 93,000 will die a premature death due to the loss of SNAP between now and 2039. The āMake America Healthy Againā party would rather people sink deeper into poverty and food insecurity than get the essential assistance they need to buy groceries.
Via Variety: 'Guillermo del Toro refused to make #Frankenstein with too much visual effects and green screens: "I want real sets."' variety.com/2025/film/fe...
True. I recommend keeping those DVDs and other physical content, because as censorship goes up and the big media players and streaming services comply with the administration, more and more content will simply disappear. I'm already seeing content lost to "curation."
I wish I had gotten a refund. I haven't, and I was too soured on the experience (and scared they would charge me again) to ever use any content. Some credit card banks reversed charges, but PayPal was no help.
I'm not a fan of genAI, but I will say, the summary is accurate, though missing the emotion of much of the real reviews... Domestika tried to submit a bunch of fake positive reviews, but the negative reviews were still too overwhelming...
I heard it had gone up! It is more in countries outside the US. I am so sorry your girlfriend went through that. It is so awful and frustrating. I recommend reviewing Domestika here: www.trustpilot.com/review/domes...
Silencing BIPOC voices any way they can. Everything about this is disgusting and corrupt.
It's been almost a year since Domestika charged me without consent for a $109.99USD membership. No refund, no recourse, little to no communciation. I'm still upset, and have never used the product. Do not trust this company with your money (or your coursework). Worst #customerexperience ever!
Want. That looks delicious!
By BRIGHTNESS he means white people, specifically cis men. Which there is plenty of, he just wants it to only be about that.
Sign me up! Yes, please.
Every day, every damn day. Yesterday, even.
Where I live, the frantic push by employers to send everyone back to work is stupid in multiple ways. 1) They don't have enough offices/desks/parking. 2) No flexibility results in many women having to quit. 3) It's become all about Presenteeism ā workers are monitored, productivity is way down.
Brilliant stuff. Tap dance included!
With a bookstore cat.
Or, underage and unwilling.
