Tezuka & Ishinomori both died at 60. Mizuki (the creator of GeGeGe no Kitarō) died at 93. I think about this a lot.
"tech giant Google has allowed the government of Israel to purchase sponsored content spots so that online users searching on the Global Sumud Flotilla will be shown inaccurate, propagandized content accusing the flotilla participants of being allied with violent, terrorist elements"
A report in HuffPo says ICE is evacuating a DHS facility it was using outside of Chicago for its operations. Protests and direct action once again drive Trump out of #Chicago. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-ev...

Just when I needed her most...
I’m at a community meeting about resisting ICE in Chicago. There are about 400 people in this high school auditorium. Chicago is showing up.
Lord alive, they want fictional characters in fictional sexual situations to model consent for literal adults like a patronizing early 2020’s sitcom where the point of the writing is to convey that the writer’s been to therapy at some point
Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches
This made me incredibly violent. Was his intention making his artist hate him? Because it worked.
Studies consistently show that Jewish Israelis view Palestinians as less than human. This deep-seated racism is rooted in the Zionist colonial project and helps explain the broad support for the Gaza genocide.
How about some action like sanctions, arms and trade embargoes?
Once i figured out that mainstream hetero relationships aren't looking for partners it is a job interview everything starts to fit into place Including conservative men lying about being left(er) to date women
"Biological differences" was also a dog whistle. Most trans girl athletes are on par with or have less muscle mass than their cis counterparts. She had an obligation to communicate that but chose not to. 😑
They're no longer waiting for the executive order and are working under the assumption that white people are a protected class now. Incredible.
Last day of #BIPOCVampDay and I would really love to see some more BIPOC vampire art. Still shook I haven’t seen any #IWTV fanart. No Claudia? No Louis? No Armand??? Blasphemy!! Pretend it’s my birthday. 🥺
He predicted it
According to Lebanese sources, the Lebanese family that Israeli aircraft just massacred in Bint Jbeil were identified as: - Shadi Sobhi Sharara - Celine Shadi Sharara - Hadi Shadi Sharara - Aseel Shadi Sharara Another Lebanese individual was also killed in the attack.
LIARS will tell you today's the only day you can listen to Earth, Wind & Fire's September, but it's not true. You can listen to this banger any time you want, nobody can stop you.
WTF just happened today is pretty succinct
Recognition of State of Palestine by Canada, France, UK etc is not only performative it is dangerous. It doesnt commit to ending genocide or implementing arms embargo and sanctions. Plus, explicitly calls for demilitarization of Palestine and disarming resistance. Reviving Oslo is not an option!
Glad Science collected this data (though the results are entirely unsurprising). GenAI cannot accurately summarize scientific papers, sacrificing accuracy for simplicity. And shame on publishers who are pushing genAI summaries on readers. Great way to accelerate an epistemic apocalypse.
if you are in a professional or personal situation where you cannot fully divest yourself from something being rightly boycotted, you've got an easy out: shut the fuck up. no one asked. you're free. i'm not your priest.
If it was something like it's the only store in your town or the only pharmaceutical company that makes your medicine, I could understand. But if you have to tell your tragic backstory to explain why you have to watch a sexpest's movie or play a bigot's video game? Nah.
News: Hundreds of Jewish healthcare workers from around the US and beyond are circulating a letter demanding an “end to the genocide in Gaza.” They “reject the weaponization of accusations of antisemitism to suppress criticism of Israel and expressions of solidarity with Palestinians.”
“why some people be mad at me sometimes” they ask me to remember but they want me to remember their memories and i keep remembering mine - Lucille Clifton [writing the most Black woman poem of all time]

Oh, this goes hard and also? Dulé Hill posted this with the flame emojis.
This entire Jimmy Kimmel situation shows, again, white folks can shut all this down whenever they want. But they won’t because they’re not against authoritarianism and hate. They’re just against it when it affects them.
Gaza endured a night of relentless Israeli bombardment, including the remote detonation of explosive armored vehicles placed among residential neighborhoods.
DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025 I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves! Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship Silence is compliance!
Don’t forget to leave milk and cookies out for Earth, Wind & Fire tonight
We have been shadowbanned on this event and yet we are nearly sold out…come help us sell out and show your love and support for Palestine and Gaza. www.ticketmaster.com/voices-for-g...
Last week, Israel targeted and massacred 34 newspaper reporters in Yemen. According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, it was the second deadliest attack on journalists ever recorded.
Hoy se cumplen 8 años del paso del Huracán María. Hoy se conmemoran los más de 4,645 boricuas que perdieron la vida, que fueron asesinados por la negligencia calculada de un gobierno colonial corrupto y un imperio racista.

In this one a doctor talks about doing an emergency c-section on a beheaded woman to deliver her baby.
This is a ten minute video broken up into parts for Bluesky from two australian doctors who made it into Gaza. The video starts with them saying the baby formula they brought with them was taken away and that Israel bombing the hospital in front of them and lying about giving warnings
Absolutely wild. Israel targeted and massacred 31 journalists and media staff in Yemen. The second-deadliest attack on journalists ever recorded. The Israeli regime is built on war crimes.
It’s not enough

I've never felt more strongly about the take I've had from the very beginning; this is unethical technology that was made without ethics in mind. It is legit evil stuff. It needs to be banned entirely and Sam Altman needs to be thrown under the jail. That man is a supervillain.
That last line is one of the absolute single scariest things to me and that it was said with such casual happiness is even more disturbing. Not distressing. Full tilt disturbing.
People are interpreting this as snark or me calling McConaughey dumb but that was truly not my intention. I think human minds are extraordinary, including his! My dismay is with the way marketing is LLMs is leading people to doubt their own capacities in favor of something technological.
this exists it is called thinking
Spread, share, repost. Thank you.
🍊 WHEELS AND ROSES UPDATES COMING ON MONDAY🍊 Sahara is a character that reminds me to keep trying. Genuinely! W&R has been an idea in my head for 6/7 years, and over that period of time I've had to start over, and over, and over again... Grateful for the journey & excited for where we're going.
anyway. bds lists microsoft as the most complicit tech company in israeli apartheid. the bds movement has been asking people to boycott microsoft consumer products incl gaming devices 👍 bdsmovement.net/microsoft
The funny thing is voting to glaze Charlie Kirk won’t save them either

The children need to learn how to open regedit.
I hate telling this story, but when tear gas is in the news... telling always feels importantm Tear gas is an abortifacient. When I was tear gassed, we were trying for a baby. The following day, I bled in a way I never have before. Like no period of my life before or since. Horror movie stuff.
The crowd is taking a knee in the street outside of the Broadview Detention Center with their fists up to honor Silverio Villegas-Gonzáles, the man ICE killed last week, victims of police violence, and the people being killed in Palestine.
White centrists and white moderate are unable to deal with the reality that their precious politics club is now dead and they are facing fascism and cannot moderate or centrism themselves out of it without giving up their souls. These people are enraged that they will be forced to take a position.
I want to shrink them and study them in a small jar. (I am going to shake the jar like a snow globe)
At Broadview ICE facility, federal agents hurl tear gas and pepper spray at protesters blocking vans www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/19/t...
Oh yeah? Explain Elon Musk.
Making life harder for tech bro fascists and possibly collapsing the AI industry faster you say?
I rarely share organizations in Gaza because it’s too hard to verify that they are doing the work they say they are but I know multiple people who were able to evacuate through the people working on this fund who are funding trips out of Gaza City (it’s $2100 a trip for 16 people).
"Wellness" as a marketing term is inherently ableist and what's particularly dark about it is it always comes back to causing you and yours more physical harm and disability in the long run.
This is an enraging read - influencers are telling women that folic acid is toxic & causes autism, thus putting them off taking it in vitamins if they're trying to get pregnant. Worse, they're peddling expensive supplements that don't have folic acid - and Serena Williams is a shill for one of them
I took psychic damage reading that. I'm so sorry. Adulting shows no mercy fr
Nope. 1+ hour call with customer service for you! For all of us! 😭
All this hubbub for Kimmel but when BDS asked you to boycott Disney+ because of the ONGOING genocide? Crickets. In-fucking-credible
Alright. Y'all are officially doing too much™️. The man is a millionaire not a 9-5 minimum wage worker or a Black/Brown author. He will be fucking fine.

Should we apply the same logic to all of the innocent men, women and children he murdered on his weekly drone strikes in Pakistan….

The writing was pretty clearly on the wall when the Democrats sold out BLM really transparently and scrapped attempts to eliminate COVID. Biden gave the cops more money, let 'er rip with SARS, and funded a genocide then told us it was our own fault. That WAS fascism.
It's so crazy how, in all of this, this French genocidal piece of shite, doesn't care about the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, especially women and children, who have been gruesomely murdered by israel. What he cares about is israel's "image" and "credibility" which israel is "destroying." 🤮
I wake up and EVERY day there's at least 2 hours of bullshit before I can actually do any of my actual work. Why.
ACIP members have voted to update the current pediatric and adult immunization schedules for FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccines. The vote was a unanimous yes.

Hi, I’m Patri! I’ve just started publishing my first webcomic #PROYPAL - a story about the weight of expectations, discovering your own identity and the romance between a hot engineer and an even hotter operator, all set in a manufacturing plant 🏭✨ #comic #webcomic
Oh since we're talking about boycotts, way too many of y'all still eat at Chik fil A and shop at Hobby Lobby, two companies whose profits are literally dedicated to killing trans people
For some inexplicable reason, this brilliant 1938 anti-Appeasement cartoon by the great David Low came to mind when I looked at the list of the Mega-Powerful / Hyper-Rich at yesterday’s Windsor Castle nosh up for our superhuman masters.
A lot of people on here rightfully cry about leftists who are pro-BDS but anti sanctions on Russia but the reverse position is far more common
The idea that the combined MMR is dangerous but separately the vaccines are fine was created out of whole cloth by Andrew Wakefield, a disgraced former doctor who had a patent on a non-combined version of the MMR. We've known his research was bunk for almost 30 years.
www.theguardian.com/environment/... Fascinating and alarming. Seems planting more native plants is the way to go. We have to support wild pollinators as a first order of business. I love the honeybee but this is a crisis.

RECESSION ALARM! Forget a warning!
homophobia and transphobia are a reaction against bodily autonomy and happiness itself. they want to torture us as an extension of the way they torture themselves.

Mixed her shit up. Rip.
The fascists have assessed that they have nothing to worry about from National Democratic elected politicians. In fact, if they were ever to retake nominal power, many of them will do what they can to destroy their own voters who insist on action against the fascists.
