"This thread is about dickheads on the internet harassing others and getting banned for it." Not unless your language centers have imploded.
screenshot of the first two posts in this thread, which is an argument like "i don't believe that bsky moderation has powerful transphobic people on it. here's a scenario that I've constructed in my imagination for why all these people could be wrong about it. this highly flawed explanation i do like is naturally more true than the obvious one i don't like (some of the staff subscribe to a common bigotry and the users are correctly identifying this)"
a digital black-and-white sketch in charcoal of a crumbling long bridge or walkway over an ocean that passes three funky-looking old towers with pennants in a strong wind. there are birds in the distance over two of the towers. near the "camera," there's a figure in a cloak staring at the broken bridge, and an gate in front of the figure that would completely block the bridge if it weren't open
a screen shot of the first page of "The Vacuity of Postmodernist Methodology" by Nicholas Shackel, sorry im on my phone but hes complaining about "post-structuralists, deconstructivists, exponents of the strong programme in the sociology of knowledge, and feminist anti-rationalists" (only the feminist ones, ie sexist anti-rationalists are fine)
a five -star review of a swamp. A man and his desk are half-submerged in slime. "Beautiful swamp! True, there is one minus: when you swim at shallow depths, the boat hits the drowned. I decided to drown myself, it works! I am writing from under the water! There is Wi-Fi, I recommend it to everyone! (Translated by Google)"
from top to bottom, in dark blue on white: "THIS IS THE EMPLOYMENT JELLY" a drawing of a slime with a briefcase and pen stuck in it and haunted eyes. "REBLOG WHENEVER THE HELL YOU LIKE AND YOU'LL GET A JOB THAT YOU LOVE AND DESERVE."
A screenshot of the first part of an article. The text is: Remember "this is not normal?" A year ago, it was the motto of the self-styled "Resistance"--the coalition of liberals, Democrats, and a few wayward conservatives who were implacably opposed to the Trump administration. The endless refrain represented the refusal to countenance Trump as an ordinary political actor. Doing so, they feared, would eventually lead to the acceptance of racism, xenophobia, corruption, and authoritarianism, as a regular and unremarkable feature of politics and society.
a four-panel comic. top left panel: a shadowy figure looks at something with binoculars against a shaded background. top right panel: another shadowy figure holding some kind of rifle looks at a tiny man in the distance. there is a badly drawn klieg light on the right side. middle panel: a guy with a buzz cut and suit stands at a microphone in front of a brick wall and says "And how about those young people today, huh? They don't think I'm funny." on the left and "People have been laughing at my same jokes for 40 years! You don't laugh, then something's wrong with you. Am I right?" bottom panel: the first shadowy figure says "Ok, take the (scribbled out) shot." the second one with the rifle says "No, he has a worse one coming up."
"The dreaming kingdoms are in good part empty. There are the marks of life and the signs of habitation. There are tilled fields and cleaned or dirtied streets. There is smoke in the air and trees have fallen. But somewhere between one third and two thirds of the population is effectively absent. They do not exist. They evade the census; even the estimate of their numbers could be wildly imprecise. The studies of the sages falter in their presence, become bogged down with uncertainty and confusion. They are lacking the details and sensory evidence that would cement their existence in the mind." — WTF, Jenna Katerin Moran
a dictionary definition of taikun: 1. monarch (as an honorific) 2. shogun (of the tokugawa government) (used during the edo period in communications with other countries)

a Halloween pumpkin bucket with one child size Snickers in it and some electronics. A hand reaches in from off screen and grabs the Snickers. The pumpkin does the Wilhelm Scream
an edit of xkcd 1277. cueball sits at a desk on a fancy chair with a laptop, and says "This Ayn Random number generator you wrote claims to be fair, but the output is biased toward certain numbers." White Hat replies, "Well, maybe 1-3 and 5-6 are just intrinsically better!"
pages 434-435 of some edition of "the number of the beast." too much to transcribe, but here are relevant parts: "but today, as a self-aware female instead of a mixed-up male, i do not hesitate to command... [about a page of text] I don't recall being dead, either. Just a whale of a blow in the back; then some dreams I can't remember; then someone leaning over me and asking me patiently, again and again, whether I preferred to be a man or woman; and at last I tracked clearly enough to realize that the question was serious; and I thought about it and answered, 'Woman'; and they made me answer that same question at least once a day for many days..."
