“Your iPhone won’t get AI features because of the EU” is not the PR triumph Apple thinks it is.

Not only is it Pride Month, but today specifically is my 2nd year being out as trans. I am nowhere near where I want to be with becoming the woman I know I am, but I and damn well happier and I have never felt as free as I do. Whether any of you are out loud and proud, still staying quiet about it, or figuring yourself out, I wish you the happiest Pride Month. 💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

"I was once hopeful about politics. Under Corbyn, I believed a better Britain was possible. As a person who grew up working class, I found that his desire to scrap tuition fees really spoke to me.. Nationalised railways would have meant I could afford the commute to work. What’s more, he had a clear stance on Gaza.
With Starmer, I haven’t felt remotely the same"

Another commission of the cyber-deer!

This time showing off his energy-tech powers, he's supposed to be something like Mass Effect Sentinel.

Had fun with this one, I enjoy drawing energy and comic-like action shots, and it's always fun to draw some cyber parts 😎

Wait a sec!
I JUST noticed that in the commission we got recently, the artist has done 'raf in the D.I.D. Pride colours.
That's awesome! XD
Not sure if it was intentional buuut the colours kinda work for þem, so no complaints either way :D

Remember kids:

IRC doesn't collect data on you and sell it.
You can still moderate your channels via invite, voice, and ban modes.
You can run a server on a 486.
IRC doesn't try to up sell you on "nitro".
IRC doesn't need to make money to make some VC happy.

The problem I see with a lot of Just Stop Oil's stunts, is that they don't get anyone talking about actually stopping burning stuff and cutting back on fossil fuel extraction and use. Instead all of the discussion is about whatever stunt it was, which isn't really the point. People just knowing Just Stop Oil's name and key colour, and then associating them with being mildly disruptive muppets really isn't cutting it. Time for new tactics, I think.

Do you understand how evil most social structures are?

Breaking news: We've taken the next step to challenge the ban on puberty blockers

We have asked for an urgent hearing that will seek to quash the ban. It is clear that this ban is having a devastating - and harmful - impact on young trans people and we do not believe that waiting is an option.

i was on HRT for five years before i was on transgender HRT. i was on a low dose of spironolactone for my blood pressure. the doc just gave it out like nothing. it's just when someone wants lower T for gender reasons that it's suddenly something the state needs to violently stop.

I feel like surely people on this network would appreciate knowing that the BBC sound effect library, from which you may freely download, has 716 distinct recordings of clocks specifically https://sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk/
