Using AI even for fun, you’re contributing to the destruction of freshwater for the entire world as well as helping the genocide in Congo! STOP USING AI!

This is why my birthday is cursed. Got a tornado and my Mom and sister involved in a car crash with my birthday cake on my birthday too. My advisers were worried about me, but they really didn’t do anything. Later told the department head what happened. I’m pretty sure nothing happened. Left.

I got pushed out when my quantum mechanics professor told me I had the second lowest grade in class, and that I didn’t learn anything all on my birthday when I was bringing my classmates cupcakes. From okay to zero in seconds. I went to the top of the 2nd tallest building on campus with intentions

  Look if I let myself start crying about all the women, especially women of color, that I saw pushed out of physics and astronomy by people who subscribe to sexist and racist views, I truly might never stop The things I saw and heard the grief feels enormous and bottomless

One of my favorite comic artists that I’ve been following since the 90s has started using AI to animate their art. They’ve been told the animation has been done via stolen animation via the AI, but they’re still doing it. I don’t know what to feel. They also still owe me a commission I paid too.

This new postmark rule also affects tax returns if you still snail mail them!
How this new mail rule could affect your ballot, your tax return and more

The rule, which went into effect on Christmas Eve, defines the meaning of a postmark, the date printed or stamped on most mailed items.

Reel on why you can’t mail in ballots anymore thanks to Cramp’s new Postmaster General.

That one time when the USPS’s increasing inefficiencies due to deliberate sabotage by the Trump Administration derailed the vote-by-mail program.On Dec 24, 2025, the United States Postal Service made an update to their policy, no longer guaranteeing that mail would be postmarked on the day it was mailed but instead when it was received at a distribution center.This means that your mail - ballots, tax returns, and any other sensitive mail - may not be postmarked until multiple days after you drop it in the mailbox. The issue is compounded by USPS decision to shrink the number of distribution centers, impacting rural communities the most.This is concerning as currently 16 states allow mail in ballots to be counted if they are postmarked by election day and received within a certain number of days.President Trump has repeatedly said he would like to end the vote by mail program and has expressed interest in issuing an executive order on the matter.It’s no surprise, then, that the majority of mail votes swing Democratic.Around 30% of votes cast in the 2024 election were cast via mail, and at least 725,000 of those were postmarked on election day.
