Holy shit ASOS released an adaptive clothing line specifically for people with disabilities?!?!!!

Magnets instead of buttons, special pockets and holes to hold wearable medical devices that have tubes, and zippers to make them more comfortable for wheelchair users.

I’ll happily celebrate this death and enjoy reading the obituary

We don’t yet have an iOS equivalent that I’m aware of but there are some settings you can change to limit or eliminate Apple Intelligence on your phone. It takes some effort.

By default, most companies that make chatbots and other AI software collect and use your data for AI training. But you can opt out of that training. www.eff.org/pages/i-wan...

I left x despite having a large following bc I don’t want to make free content for the world’s wealthiest racist. It’s not worth it to me.

After ten years of this madness they refuse to call a duck a duck.

A reminder that social media doesn’t have to be “where it’s happening” or constant fights for relevance or even the ultimate dunk. It can be about how good your pot roast turned out while trading recipes with strangers. You don’t have to go back into the hellsite to prove yourself. You can just hang

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!

I do not think an exec branch led by a man who thinks he is entitled to treat federal agents as an arm of his firm, refers to Somali Americans as “garbage” and has said racist things specifically about Omar is capable of neutrally applying the law to her, to put it mildly apnews.com/article/ilha...

apnews.comFederal agents search Rep. Ilhan Omar's home as part of a criminal investigation, AP sources sayFederal agents have searched Democratic U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home as part of a criminal investigation. That's according to people familiar with the matter.

Hello, kids. It’s been a while (and a whole ‘nother platform) but once again it’s time to play WHAT RAMS TEAM ARE WE GONNA THIS GAME? #Rams

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

There's a trap on your ballot in California. Here's how to get past it.
1. Prop 40: 250 billionaires pay with they owe so hospitals, schools, and food assistant survive the federal cuts. Vote yes.
2. Props 41 and 42: paid for by billionaires to cancel prop 40. Vote no.
3. Tell one person, because the confusion is the plan.
Yes I'm 40. No on 41 and 42.

Can we take just a few seconds to acknowledge the birth of a new classic meme

Vertical split screen of William Shatner appearing as a guest on Brent Spiner's podcast: referring to the 2025 romantic film Pillion, Shatner asks Spigner "The world of homosexuality I'm not familiar with. Are you?" Spiner, with an expression that seems at once weary and astonished, replies "to a degree."
CJoe Flynn@chinajoeflynn.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 12:52 AM

Apparently William Shatner went on Brent Spiner and Jonathan Frakes' podcast and talked about the 2025 gay romantic film PILLION. @imnotahrhitter.bsky.social @brendelbored.bsky.social

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

I'm thinking of sending handwritten letters to Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer warning if they fail to prosecute the shit out of the GOP and their corporate partners, they will not only be cast out of office, but their names will live in infamy as long as humanity exists.

I had a convo w/ppl last night abt this. I don’t understand the modern refusal to allow villains to be villains. There always has to be some excuse, some reason that allows the audience to be “okay” w/them. Like, sometimes people fuck up, sometimes ppl lash out. & sometimes ppl are just fucking EVIL

this is the ultimate end point of capitalism, ai will completely atomize everyone and there will be zero shared experiences. there will be no culture, only pure consumption. this must be resisted
