I swear I’ll stop talking about the Austin ice storm soon, but Twitter Blue has roughly as many subscribers as folks who lost power this last week. ಠ_ಠ theinformation.com/articles/mu

Amazing visualisation of the vertical component of the ground motion of the main M7.8 shock sweeping across North America. Notice the direction of the waves that indicate the shortest path from Turkey to this area of Earth, coincidentally proving that Earth is an oblate spheroid!

Re: the AI Seinfeld. It's not absurd or surreal, both require the expectation of a baseline rationality or reality. At best it can be described as arbitrary. And that's generally the issue with AI stuff--its intentionality is severely limited because the people who create these systems don't understand creative intentionality. They're a bid to do away with a creative class that the management class doesn't see value in, because to their minds creative output is essentially arbitrary anyway.

A really nice breakdown of Rowling's TERF spiral, its connection to alt-right hate movements, the damage that's been done to trans people the world over, and what "supporting" the Harry Potter franchise means, done by *checks notes* ...Gamespot?

HUGE shoutout and thank you to folks who stick around here, creators posting their arts, fans liking and sharing same, and everyone keeping the conversation going here.

Rather that setting up an account then leaving it idle and abandoned while just slinking back to the familiar comfort of birdsite.

Thanks for putting in the effort to help build a community here ❤️

Funfact Hummingbird Cake is delicious and was invented by Jamaicans

One of those aspects of African American History that I feel often get short shrift is just how much African, Carribean, and African American cooking influenced and informed the basis of American cooking.

Cooking and baking history is a criminally poorly studied area of history in general but I do think this is an area that is poorly discussed and also one where I am not qualified to say much beyond extreme vague comments.

Request for y'all: Can you please be a little more descriptive in your content warnings? Just this morning, I've seen "dog" mean any of the following.

1. Photos of the four legged animal
2. Artwork of an anthro canine
3. Photos of fursuits
4. Photos of pup hoods and similar

I think it's awesome that this is a place where people can post all of those things! But using an extra word or two to disambiguate is helpful to everyone. 💙
