Gull Dukat. Another one of those mental images I had to exorcise by drawing it. #art #StarTrek #DS9
Digital drawing of Gul Dukat from Star Trek Deep Space Nine except Gul is spelled with two Ls and he has the head of a seagull.

Ok, this short video explaining how an industrial accident in 2015 happened is actually remarkably good? It is a very clear, for-an-idiot (here, me, who knows nothing of much of this) explanation for what went wrong. I wish more informative material like this was surfaced to me.

This is a good reminder that some "voluntary" departures people sign while detained by ICE are the product of coercion. The worst incidents I've heard of over the years involve agents grabbing a person's hands and forcing them to sign a piece of paper they can't read; it's a "voluntary" removal.

It's striking to me that in addition to continuing to ship right up until the day before yesterday, they shipped this lettuce to Iowa and Wisconsin but not Minnesota, the state with the notoriously good team for sourcing these outbreaks.

The @texastribune.org is investigating this ICE shooting, along with that of Ruben Martinez last year in South Padre Island. We are seeking any cell phone footage of either events and you can share anonymously to me at 832-729-3421 or on Signal or WhatsApp.

when I was doing my ICE deaths tracker during Lent there were I think at least two other cases of people who died in custody that literally just got scooped up when ICE was actually looking for someone else. adds an entirely new level of rage to see how half-assed and cavalier they are

I feel the same way about genAI fanfic. If someone thought it was a respectable way to "produce content" (ugh) for fandom, they'd tag it. But no. They want the credit/accolades for WRITING, and they don't want people to filter out their work bc they feel entitled to readers.

Meta now lets anyone use your Instagram photos in AI images without your consent. SAG-AFTRA recommends that #SagAftraMembers (and all Instagram users) opt-OUT of Meta’s new AI image generation tool, Muse Image. Take action to protect your likeness.
If you want to avoid AI generations of your Instagram posts without switching your account to private, you’ll have to dig into the app’s settings. Open the Instagram app, tap your profile, and then tap the three lines in the top-right corner of the screen. Then, scroll down to the Sharing and reuse tab. Here is where you should see a section labeled Allow people to use your content on Instagram and with AI features on Meta, with a toggle for Posts and one for Reels.

This is true and it is tragic: it can happen to absolutely anyone, no matter how good a parent you are. Just telling yourself to always look in the backseat when you get out of the car isn't enough: your brain can create false memories when stressed or sleep-deprived.

SFF, we need to talk. I'm not here to rag specifically on Bona, who did the right thing by going public. No, I'm looking at all of you. Or at least, 15 of you. Because this right here? This is buckwild.
Once we’d picked our hearts off the floor, we started digging: Bella had minimal online presence, first appearing in May 2025. Since then, she’d accumulated a remarkable publication record (we counted 15 published stories in 12 months), across name publishers and small or community-minded outlets, including several paying SFWA rates (like us).

If any other natural disaster generated a body count of 14,000 we'd hear about it, and likely nothing else, for weeks and months. When a heat wave does it, it's a blip. There are three reasons for this, and they all derive from the dull, unspectacular, un-cinematic way heat kills people.

In literature, mythology, and comic books heroes often have a "kryptonite" or "Achilles's heel", basically a weakness that makes them vulnerable. I'm curious what fans here would consider to be Superman's "Kryptonite"?
