Me: oh wow, this shop has everything my heart desires!

Spooky shopkeeper: yes, I will warn you... every item comes with a price.

Me: yes, I know how shops work

kittydesade

Spooky Shopkeeper: The price may be more than you expect to pay.

Me: Yes, I know how US taxes work, too.

Shopkeeper, increasingly exasperated: I'm trying to tell you that I'm evil and offering these wares with no regard for the harm they will do!

Me, also increasingly exasperated: I know what capitalism is too goddammit

a meme - looks like a public service announcement about the safety features and hazards on a plane or train. “How to avoid sexual assault
A QUICK AND EASY GUIDE*
2
3
DON'T PUT DRUGS IN PEOPLE'S DRINKS.
USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM.
If you might sexually assault someone, bring a friend to stop you.
IF SOMEONE IS DRUNK, HIGH, OR ASLEEP, DON'T RAPE THEM.
5
6
CARRY A WHISTLE.
If you might sexually assault someone, blow it until someone stops you.
8
WATCH WHAT YOU WEAR.
If someone's clothes are a problem for you, try wearing a blindfold.
WHEN YOU SEE
SOMEONE WALKING ALONE, LEAVE THEM ALONE.
DON'T FEEL
ENTITLED TO SEX.
Nobody owes you sex.
Flirting isn't consent.
IF YOU'RE ALONE WITH SOMEONE, DON'T SEXUALLY ASSAULT THEM.
THE ONLY PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT IS THE PERSON WHO COMMITS IT.”

Scratchy drawing of a two panel comic.
Panel 1: 
Titled:“How we thought robots would kill us”
A robot shoots a human to death with a gun. It screams “Die flesh sack”

Panel 2:
Titled “How robots will actually kill us”
A MediBot is injecting something into a humans arm. The bot says “Whooops. I injected you with cancer instead of insulin. That’s on me”

Black text on white page that reads as follows:

On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect. 

For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay. 

The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built. 

True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come. 

As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized. 

Happy Juneteenth, New York City.

Truth. The unexamined life is not worth living but measuring it out in coffee spoons ain't it either
@lichthauch / Twitter screenshot 

The man who sleeps nine hours and eats clean and never drinks and exercises daily is the deadest man i know btw. his bloodwork is immaculate and he has nothing to say. the body is a temple and no God showed up. meanwhile the ones who actually see things are running on four hours and cigarettes and something chewing at them from inside that wont let them become vegetables. consciousness is expensive it costs health. you pay with the body. the flame eats the candle thats the deal

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2026
Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

This is a reminder that if you’ve just seen something traumatic, playing 15 min of a visually demanding game (Tetris is the go-to here, but maybe Set? Mah-jongg?) can impede memory formation and help stop it from developing into a trauma. (This doesn’t work for complex trauma but discrete events)
