Weird uptick in AIgen content made to make animals look scary? In the course of a week I saw unverifiable footage of Tilikum interacting w that guy who broke into his enclosure and a weird fake of the Tanaka squid encounter from a few years.
We did $2k in an hour at one point but I’m out the other side

Posting in here cuz the queer thread is about to expire and I also value non-queer inputs:
When do you just let a ghost be a ghost? I’ve been seeing this nb very casually for about half a year, maybe a bit longer. It was usually us meeting up once a month for primarily physical connects, they lived pretty far away and had to drive into the city. But they were also a very principled leftist and I enjoyed our time together. Whenever we left it was also a “that was amazing, lets not let it be a month before we see each other again,” etc. But inevitably I’d go a month without hearing from them before getting a “sorry! Life is crazy! Are you free saturday?” Text. Last time things felt particularly good/like I was going to maybe be seeing more of them, but that was almost 4 months ago now. I’ve been sending them a text once a month now since then, and haven’t got anything back. I’m considering reaching out on instagram, where we don’t follow each other, but I don’t wanna be a creep/stalker. I guess I’m just worried cuz I’ve had friends’ phones break/numbers change unexpectedly and assumed they wanted nothing to do with me, only to bump into them and have it all be a big misunderstanding. Bweh.
The (queer sections) of my Local Scene are going thru a classicremoved witch hunt that will end in ruining one disenfranchised trans woman’s life and making the rest of the community feel less safe for years.
Congrats guys you did it again lets hear it for a c c o u n t a b i l i t y
Kids are absolutely an oppressed class. There’s a reason we see conservatorship as a fucked up relationship even tho its just an adult having a relationship with an adult thats the same they’re expected to have as a child. Honestly one of the best parts of capitalist alienation (to capitalists) is the complete severing of intergenerational relationships and solidarity. I mean look at how folks on this website talk about “anti-homework/betime aktion” ironically like American school isn’t one of the most coersive violent institutions that literally everyone in the country is forced to squeeze through.
We’ve completely normalized giving people no rights for the first 18 years of their life, and if you push back on it at all you’re seen as a sus predator trying to gain more access to children.
Pedagogy of the oppressed would be some good reading here thats tangentially related. I can try to find books on youth lib specifically
there’s no such this as eco-fascism, this is just Fascist Propaganda.
On a scale of Archipelago to John Company, how critical/materialist is its analysis of the colonialism youre doing
