What "Land Back" means:

In my tribe we believe medicine belongs to everyone and I want you to be well.

In my tribe we believe every hungry person is entitled to food and I want you to be fed.

In my tribe we believe trans and two spirit people are sacred and I want you to be safe.

In my tribe we believe that human beings are here to care for the land and keep it healthy and I want you to have clean water to drink.

In my tribe we believe in caring for and venerating elders and I want care for you as you grow old.

In my tribe we believe that children should be cared for by the community and I want your children to grow up loved and supported.

In my tribe we wear really cool earrings and you should totally buy some. Eeeeeeeee

Land Back isn't about revenge. It's an act of love.

not naming names but some of you are genuinely really good people and i hope that you get everything your heart wants and needs

the only reliable, effective way of "protecting children" is education. but people don't want to hear that because they don't actually care about protecting children, they care about protecting a mythologised ideal of innocence

Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups. Now, some users are noticing CPU and power usage spikes caused by a background process called Inference.

Ugh. Reminder again for Firefox users to visit your about:config page, search for the browser.ml.chat.enabled key, and set that to false:

If yours says true then double-click it until it reads false.

Doing that turns off the AI chatbot features in Firefox, but also the stupid new LLM tab-naming feature that's rolling out.

The idea of listening to no black music is bizarre to me. Even if it's not rap like no earth wind and fire? No reggae? No moonstomp? No ska? No classic jazz? No R and B? No disco??? No skindred? No jungle? No even like metal bands with a few black members? No gospel? Not even stuff like alors en dance? No blues music? No mo town? No jazz of any kind? No big band? No soul music? Not even a little James Brown?

I really think we should stop saying "kid-friendly" and start saying "ad-friendly". We shouldn't indulge these companies and their excuses anymore. I also think that continuing to pretend that this is about "protecting the children" pushes a lot of the blame onto kids and teens, who don't have the political power to push through any of this censorship legislature. Corporations and governments are to blame.

To me in 2016: if youre still on this website, fuck you but i understand

insane to me that there are people on this platform acting like transandrophobia doesn't exist when the regime is actively trying to use laws against female genital mutilation to ban our healthcare specifically. like your "oppression is based on identity not appearance" ideology is so two dimensional that it does not even account for the fact that our enemies like to misgender us. like shut the fuck up honestly. they are literally targeting us they just aren't doing it by name because erasing the reality of our existence is part of the game.

The UK government did an investigation into the porn sites that haven't yet implemented the age verification measures and they...I shit you not, they published a list. A LIST of all the porn sites. That you can still access without having to verify your age. They made a government employee make a list of all the porn sites and check if they have age verification and then they published a list of those that don't. For all the public to read.

hey so how would youtube's ai be able to flag channels based on "appearing to be a child" in the first place. how would youtube get that data to train their ai on. how would they get that data without. collecting data on kids. which is something they explicitly. are not allowed to do.

Something terrifying about the way censorship is just straight up happening right now and they're barely trying to pretend that isn't what it is. The UK rolling out the Online Safety Act which forces anyone accessing 'adult' content (including discord, LGBT+ forums, various resources for drug addicts etc.) to share their face and ID with American third party companies, and refusing to debate a repeal in parliament despite 300,000 signatures on their own website to do so. Something fishy going on with Google docs suddenly deleting/restricting content. Itchio and Steam suddenly deleting 18+ games including both porn games and horror games at the behest of Mastercard.

Like. Truly in the past month the censorship is hitting like a truck and we're all just supposed to be fine with it. Like. It's genuinely making me feel sick.

This was news from thee newscast here (Tagesschau) so the article is only in German but here my favourite parts:

- for a long time the only reason they knew the worm existed were the traces it left on the corals it ate, no one ever saw it

- until one day they found a one point five metre long part of the worm that was still wiggling

- only the part was missing the head, and the corals continued to be eaten, so apparently the worm just got rid of its bum and continued on like normal

- DNA tests of the bum could not determine its species, only that it is in some way related to the bobbit worm (also called eunice aphroditois), so this might be an entirely new species

- the worm is called 'Phantom'

- they installed cameras for four days, but didn't manage to capture the worm, after removing the cameras the worm continued eating the corals - right where the cameras had been

- the guy who positioned the camera said to that 'Lots of material, sadly extremly little worm, as in neither a long nor the short worm. We haven't seen anything.'

- now they have installed a camera again and a popular german news channel is streaming the whole night so that everyone can search for Phantom:
