THE CHAFF PROJECT Hi! Are you cis in the UK and you'd like to support trans rights? Great! How: buy a trans flag pin and wear it in public. Why: chaff is an overwhelming amount of false positives so that when a missile gets close to the plane, it hits the chaff and not the plane.
A very simple diagram showing radar, a chaff cloud, a confused missile and an airplane. The confused missile is aiking for the chaff cloud and not the airplane.

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

Friday’s press gaggle. Barely exaggerated: at 12:03 PM, President Trump told reporters he wanted a ceasefire with Iran. At 12:05 he declared victory. At 12:07 he announced he was sending Marines. At 12:08 he said no boots on the ground. At 12:11 he said he did not want a ceasefire. At 12:16 he declared victory again. At 12:17 he asked for a ceasefire. At 12:23 he told NATO they were cowards. At 12:29 he said Iran was begging for a ceasefire. At 12:31 he said everything was perfect. At 12:36 he said $500 oil was a good thing. At 12:37 he demanded Iran open Hormuz. At 12:39 he said Hormuz was never closed. At 12:41 he said the US was not at war with Iran. At 12:42 he declared victory in Iran

When they make movies about this in the future they will tone down the cruelty of ICE and border patrol, like Spielberg did with Goeth in Schindler's List, because no one will believe they were actually this monstrous.

KOG IS GREENLIT! Since this was shown in the trailer/ad for the artbook it felt safe to share. This was drawn in '24, early dev, the first time it really felt me, Zach, and JBO understood Frankie, Andi, and the show's tone. I still look at this drawing and think, oh yeah. That's #knightsofguinevere.

Lmao apparently people near me are freaking out about a non binary teacher And I am watching the entire community come together to dunk on the much smaller group of transphobic dipshits and it is DELICIOUS The local newspaper even snarkily wrote about them and I am CRYING
- A group of fully grown adults
collapsed into emotional rubble this week after encountering a teacher title that did not personally receive their approval. The incident triggered mass Facebook posts, legal threats, and a community-wide reminder that the people screaming "kids are too soft" cannot emotionally survive one new word.
Parents immediately announced they were pulling children from music class, threatening lawsuits, and demanding firings, all because children accepted something calmly, politely, and without a meltdown.
This response enraged adults, who had worked very hard to be upset.
Children processed the situation in under 30 seconds.
Adults have now entered day three of spiral posting.
Several parents described the issue as "dangerous" and "immoral," words they apparently reserve for situations involving tambourines and basic respect.
One adult warned that children might ask questions, confirming the real horror is not gender, but curiosity.
The fragility on display has been remarkable. These are the same adults who mock participation trophies, complain about snowflakes, and brag about "how we were raised." That upbringing, it turns out, produced people who short-circuit when reality fails to match their Facebook comfort zone.Experts note that not one child reported confusion, distress, or identity crisis. However, dozens of adults reported being personally wounded, spiritually attacked, and victimized by the existence of a teacher who did not cater to their feelings.
At press time, children remained fine. Music class remained fine. The school remained fine. Only the adults were broken, trembling before the terrifying idea that the world does not freeze until they approve it.
Community Note: If you would like to counter the noise, the district needs supportive messages reminding them that calm, inclusive adults still exist and that children do not need to be rescued from basic human respect.
The
encourages these parents to locate
the nearest mirror and ask themselves why a second grader has more emotional stability than they do.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

Here are your rights if ICE knocks on your door
IF ICE AGENTS SHOW UP AT YOUR DOOR

1. You do not have to open the door. If you do, stay calm- you have rights.

2. Ask what they are there for (and ask for an interpreter if you need one).

3. If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door).

4. If they do not have a warrant signed by a judge, you may refuse to let them in. Ask them to leave any information at your door.

5. If they force their way in, do not resist. Tell everyone in the residence to remain silent.

6. If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent. Do not sign anything until you speak with a lawyer.

Green appears on the scene, with a bun of some sort hanging out of his mouth, peering at Blue's notebooks.
Green: What are you calculating?

Blue looks up to Green with an unreadable expression on his face. Green looks back to him, unsure of the situation.

Blue raises an eyebrow, looking at Green with confusion.
Blue: ...Are you eating a plain, dry hot dog bun?

It's interesting because the panel in isolation comes off a lot differently than it does in the context of the strip. The humor is that we relate to Calvin even as we understand that his outrage is disproportionate to the situation at hand, and that unlimited pie wouldn't actually be good for him.
Calvin and Hobbes comic strip

Calvin says "this piece of pie is awfully darn small"

His mom replies "life could be worse, Calvin"

Calvin says "it could be a lot better, too!"

Cut to Calvin sitting in his bedroom with a disgruntled look "...but worse is more likely"
