🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, in 2023, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into the apartment windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off the US EPA, who sent their env cops to raid Apple's plant in Aug of 2023. The US EPA finally released the report of their enforcement inspections & sent me a copy on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

"uh huh", i say as i watch teams freeze and the entire windows audio driver crash and disappear because i joined a meeting and it failed to switch my headset to hands free mode, forcing me to reboot my computer and wait several minutes until everything opened back up
Facing some financial troubles at the mo, so looking to re-home a couple of old OCs if folks are interested?
Leopard gecko's only got the one piece of art, the Primarina has two icons and two full-body pieces. Hit me up if interested!
Original artists are https://www.furaffinity.net/user/cupcakecreature for the Prim and https://skullracket.carrd.co/ for the gecko!
The worst kind of tech hype is when something is portrayed as inevitable and unstoppable, with criticism or doubt blithely dismissed as "they don't get it".
Just because a giant tech company pours vast amounts of money down a toilet, that doesn't mean the toilet is going to start spewing gold coins into the air.

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 😎
Remember kids:
IRC is free.
IRC is a open standard.
You can run your own IRC server.
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.
"Voters favour Farage to be leader of the opposition and Reform to replace the Tories"
This thing must not be allowed to form the opposition. All other concerns are secondary.
Reminder that if you get political leaflets this election cycle, please submit them to @DemocracyClub here https://electionleaflets.org/
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.
