Genuinely love this trend, and man that animation is phenomenally smooth, tasteful art :]

Actually I take it back, the A version with the Antenna is too large 😅 However I'll say the C version is nice in terms of the size and lighting style

Shayal @shayals.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

I like the F version better since it emphasizes the lighting, though I also do like the A version with the little Antenna attached

Discomfort is an essential part of growth and wouldn’t it be so embarrassing to be the exact same person thirty years from now, in a totally different world, because you were so averse to discomfort?

Once you start noticing how the incapacity to handle discomfort affects how people live their lives it's actually pretty shocking how it ruins pretty much every conceivable aspect of existence. Interpersonal relationships, romantic and platonic. Career and education opportunities. Your politics Your willingness to go anywhere. The kind of food you eat. The kind of art you expose yourself to and your ability to read it. It's never just one thing, it touches everything, and once you notice it it's like suddenly being able to see germs or something. Just this horrific catastrophe people look at you askance for screaming about. As I grow older and see what became of my friends and peers who could not learn to handle discomfort, the more I'm like. This is a genuine societal issue

Increasing my discomfort tolerance has also been one of the greatest assets to improving my mental health.

This has to END NOW! Lorenzo Salgado Araujo spent 35 years building homes and supporting his family, only to be killed on his way to work. ICE’s "self-defense" claim cannot just be taken at face value. We need a completely independent investigation and full transparency now. JUSTICE NOW!

Senator Tom Cotton has proposed Section 622 of the Intelligence Authorization Bill which codifies sharing between CIA and Mossad Boulos Call your representatives about how you will be voting in their general elections or Midterms If these bills pass, it would be nearly impossible to repeal it back

Shayal @shayals.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

Companies and military producers who profit from a forever war benefit this kind of bill. It's why Benjamin Netanyahu is in favor of this. With Israel being part of the U.S. military defense and technology, it would ensure continued war effort This bill aims to fund Israel's war effort permanently.

Holy shit, this is why it's important to stay vigilant and educate yourself. We cannot create a dystopian future for a system that actively works against our own interests. Privacy is a human right. Full stop. youtu.be/FMPPUa9H-6U?...

OP: "How is this even supposed to be a human right? It's just convenience"

My response: "according to article 12 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations explicitly states "No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy[...]Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."

The fact you think having basic privacy is not a necessity nor a eight that you're entitled to is sad."

Holy shit I need to take some notes but yeah I only have a 2TB of one of my hard drives, unfortunately I need it for using it for video editing storage But dang I do love the idea of having a whole digital library you can call your own which is super amazing with the time capsule!

As a person who loves history and a keen interest in archives I must ask how are you able to obtain large volumes of files and keep it in tact without any corruption?! Also what got you into archiving!

And I say it's arbitrarily benign because getting uncomfortable with a media is NOT any way physical NOR mental harm Sure it's upsetting for some and they may wish to not see it upon, which is why it should be up the sole responsibility to look after ourselves And simply just not engage with it

Before you all say this is an appropriate video to age restrict access out of Stop and think for a moment, what exactly does this limit benefit anyone? I'd argue it's incredibly arbitrary benign to explore heavy topics in a song meant to create awareness

Shayal @shayals.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Apparently I need to show ID to view a music video "Animal" by Maroon 5, whereas another video with the same song but re-uploaded as lyrical is fine? Tell me how censorship is equivalent to "safety", oh wait it's not (God may we wish to abolish this absolute dogshit dystopian 1984 world)

A pop up display with a text that reads "Take a few minutes to verify your age" with a subheading description notice that states "To view this video, please provide more info so we can be sure you're an adult."

With a hyperlink text of "Read More" for additional info.

The pop up can be seen when trying to publicly view a music video "Animals" made by Maroon 5

Shayal @shayals.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

It certainly is an attempt at limiting the flow of information or access, we'll have to be vigilant about this and take matters into our own hands I am not sticking around to wait on whether they'll roll out or not 😒 I wish you very well on your end! May we never have to deal with this again

Shayal @shayals.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Throwback to the sweeping age verification around across video games and social media, albeit this approach is tame compared to what other measures we've seen of Still baffles me to this day that I got logged out for nearly 3 months just because A.I. decided that my birthdate is invalid Fuck this.

Pop up webpage that is greeted to you when you first login on Desktop which reads
"Hi there!
In order to provide an age-appropriate experience,
we need to know your birthdate. This is a one-time
thing, and your data will be kept private.
Set your birthdate below and we'll get you back to
posting and exploring in no time!"

With the information subheading caption that explicitly states
"For organizational accounts, use the birthdate of
the person who is responsible for the account."

alongside with the option to log out with a hyperlink "click here" text to be signed out of Bluesky when failure to comply with birthdate

A lot of social media platforms including Bluesky tends to show the most skewed perceptions of the extremes But I do agree Twitter is absurdly socially engineered to foster hatred :/ (Honestly wish Twitter and Facebook wouldn't exist in the first place)

Sorta feels the same when it comes to plagiarism in writing You're just taking someone's voice and claiming it as your own Similarly how one would take someone's art style instead of honing to find your own style as like finding your own voice

Personally I genuinely have never heard of anyone using "sir/madam" outside of the context of customer service jobs. Plus I think they're just using them as generally speaking rather than imply of age. Then again depends on context lol

Japan's current right-wing government is pushing for a strict new anti-spy law. But one legislator says the proposed law is so vague that even oshikatsu, or support for one's favorite idol, could be construed as a crime against the state. buff.ly/nrnJthN
