'Did Trump just confess?' Expert floored by president's explosive Epstein remark twp.ai/E6AS6b


Alle Beteiligten müssen wissen, dass die #EU unmöglich für 250 Milliarden Dollar pro Jahr fossile Brennstoffe aus den USA kaufen kann. Die Summe ist vielmehr ein Symbol: Trump geht es darum, die Klimapolitik der EU sowie den Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien scheitern zu lassen, um Europa abhängig zu machen.

if someone is having fun and likes wearing cat ears and that's a cause for you to not take them seriously, you're the cringe one

I mean, if it's a casual or business casual sort of conference, I'm going to take someone in cat ears, or hell, a fursuit more seriously than I would a person in a nice suit. The person in the suit is probably trying to sell me something.



i want to do one of those "hey if you're seeing this you matter" posts except with the underlying message that the systems of kyriarchy have created a harsh and cruel word unnecessarily and you are right to be angry





Came up with an idea to fadeout UI windows when they're in the way, which meant a big refactor to the "egaui" immediate mode UI system; basically allowing a window draw list to go to a temporary buffer first to be rendered dithered, looks cool!


NYT has published 1.6 jillion stories based off nothing but what Trump says in a Tweet or somewhere else. It has been 2 hours, they've changed their front page at least once and ... crickets.

Someone shared this elsewhere on the internet this week, and I have to pass it along!

It’s a website where you draw a fish, and then it swims around with other people’s fish. That’s it. That’s all it is.

in reply to Violinknitter

my drawing was only 59% likely to be a fish. I feel oddly judged.
in reply to smellsofbikes

@smellsofbikes Same, mine may have been 57%. Saw a few not dissimilar swimming around, though!
in reply to smellsofbikes

@smellsofbikes right? Who are you to say what is and isn't a fish. Especially following the conversation yesterday when the category of fish doesn't biologically exist... In theory we're all fish ..


You're not vain.

This toot is totally about you.

That song has always bothered me... the song is _totally_ about him! She's very specific, apricot scarf, flying to Nova Scotia for an eclipse. A listener is going to recognize themselves or not. "I never wore an apricot scarf, so she can't mean me."

its a trap for anyone trying to find an empty parking space lol
in reply to Piggo

that’s how my mom’s VW Beetle got totaled back in the day. Parked all the way forward between two larger vehicles and got whacked by someone going to park thinking it was an open space. In the US some pickup truck driver probably would not even notice they hit this while parking at all. :neocat_o_o:

From here on out, y'all...let's just assume that anytime someone makes a big deal about how deviant the rest of us are, what with our loving our gay, trans, queer, neurodivergent selves, friends and family...that person will always, always, always be a sex predator.

#JasonYates, CEO of #MyFaithVotes just plead guilty after being busted with a whole hard drive of kiddie pron. Worked with the #Trump campaign.

#RobertMorris was the lead pastor of the #Gateway megachurch, close personal friend of #47, as been indicted in Oklahoma on child sex charges which stretch back four decades.

In 2022, Slate published an article about the #GOP and #sexcrimes, and it just keeps getting worse.

Don't trust your #children around Republicans, I guess.
