there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

game devs claiming it’s impossible to not-use AI like it didn’t just become available a few years ago need a placeholder? make a little doodle. at least then it’s 1) easily catchable, and 2) charming if it makes it into release

I went to Vancouver a few years ago and the mountains stole my heart. I finally knew what it was to have a place feel like where you belong. alas 😔

people need people, and i’ve rarely found someone that couldn’t be pulled to the side of compassion. this is to say: i love you. every one of you. not in some parasocial, vacuous sense, but in that I care about you and want you to be happy when you can, and want your burden to be lighter. as my

there are for sure still bigots irl, but it usually comes from ignorance and propaganda (ironically from social media). i do my best to push back against language and ideas i find disagreeable, and when you’re actually speaking to someone, without the veil of anonymity, a lot of them listen.

vile, bigoted comments. and it’s all so tiring. so if you’re wondering why i’ve been so absent of social media as of late (you probably weren’t—who am i, after all), that’s why. the good news is that if you physically interact with people, people are mostly Good, at least from what i’ve found.

i’ve been very conflicted with social media the last few months. i’m so fond of the friends i’ve met through niche interests and i wouldn’t have that kind of reach without the internet connecting all of us but with how everything is commoditized, every app is incentivized to grab your attention

idk if this will reach any german historians, but question: was German Fascism *this* stupid? like we all hear the tales of how efficient the Nazis were, but was that similar to the propaganda the American regime touts now? it just seems so ridiculous and stupid that anyone follows this man.

South Texas game cam catches a raccoon riding a javelina (Dicotyles tajacu). The deer feeder corn attracts a lot of other species, but maybe we should worry about them all teaming up against us? (📷: Jeff Davis, TAMU-Kingsville alumni forum)

On a black and white game cam, three javelinas are browsing corn while a raccoon sits on one of their backs. The lighting produces laser-eyes in the raccoon, who is secretly one of the X-Men.

A raccoon knight on a javelina steed. "Onward, Pigasus! Let us show them the meaning of haste". Motion blurred, black and white game cam shot.

it’s weird for ppl to say that violence has no place in politics when the entire concept of a state is the threat of violence if one does not follow its laws i don’t think he should’ve been killed, but let’s not pretend that ICE kidnapping people and the military storming cities isn’t violent

question for american friends: what’s the point of those government grilling sessions we see (like the RFK one that just happened)? it seems like literally nothing ever comes of them, even if the person on the stand can’t seem to answer a single question satisfactorily
