EVERYONE(!) I’m blazing this post because at this pace we might barely hit 1,000,000 signatures—or just fall short. PLEASE reblog this post, no matter where you are from, so we can reach as many EU citizens as possible and end this horrible practice!

Fight AI and Protect Endangered Cozumel Raccoons!

Remaking this post with better info on how you can help the critically endangered Cozumel raccoon from your own home by BULLYING AI INTO SUBMISSION.

The issue: There is a critically endangered species of raccoon known as the Cozumel/pygmy raccoon. Among a shitload of other threats, the Cozumel raccoon also has to deal with the fact nobody knows it exists. This issue has gotten worse with Google's new "AI Search Overviews." Unfortunately, when people search things like "Mexican raccoons" or "What species of raccoons are in Mexico," all the results show coatis. Which are not raccoons (they are more closely related to Olingos.) Mexico actually has two species of raccoon, the common raccoon (Procyon lotor) and the Cozumel raccoon (Procyon pygmaeus.) If people can't even find the Cozumel raccoon on google without using the actual species name, how tf are folks supposed to know they are endangered and need help?

Anyway, here is a way you can fight back against Google's bullshit AI and search algorithms that are limiting pygmy raccoon conservation efforts:

Method 1: Report Incorrect Google AI Overview Results

1. Google phrases like “Mexican raccoons,” “what species of raccoon are in Mexico," "types of raccoons in Mexico," “what kind of raccoons live in Mexico," etc.

2. If coatis appear instead of actual raccoons in the Google AI Overview, scroll to the bottom and click the thumbs down.

3. Click “Report a problem”

4. Click “Not Factually Correct” or "Unhelpful."

5. Type something along the lines of: “Mexican raccoons are not coatis. The two raccoon species in Mexico are the common raccoon, Procyon lotor and the critically endangered pygmy raccoon/Cozumel raccoon (Procyon pygmaeus)” or "Bro, I searched for raccoons, this is a coati. Show me the raccoons."

6. Click “Include a screen capture” and submit.

Method 2: Report Individual Search Results

Find any search result that refer to coatis as Mexican raccoons

2. Click the three dots next to the listing.

3. Scroll right and click “Feedback.”

4. Select “Inaccurate content” or "Irrelevant content." Again, whatever floats your boat.

5. Explain the error by typing something like I mentioned above.

6. Click “Include screenshot.”

7. Submit your report.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!!

OKAY, I dislike even have to do this but it's happening anyway

Stop sending my main (this account) asks and messages about go fund links.

If you took the time to check my profile you'd find the correct blog to message about that.

I don't mean to be rude when people are struggling, but my Twitter has been flooded and I mentally can't take it anymore and it following me to my main Tumblr isn't helping.

I want to help, I like helping, sharing information and all that, but not on my main rn where I go for even the smallest break.

If I can't have my break to recharge and process when things are too heavy to handle I get really impolite and start to actually not care about other people.

Which sucks, cause I really feel shit sometimes, even if I don't really know a person.

So please, send your go funds links and asks to @bleeding-h3rt where they will be handled with far more care then here on my silly dnd account

Howdy folks, the Senate will be considering the first ever resolution blocking arms to Israel. This is huge and historic; it would block government contracting and about $20 billion in arms and support. This is an uphill battle, PLEASE urge your senators to support S.J.Res114-115. This is maybe the most important piece of legislation relating to Palestine that we have ever gotten and we must seize this opportunity.

This doc has information on the resolutions and their process, as well as sample messages and a phone script you can use. Please, use this moment to hear witness for your neighbors.

Attention Pennsylvania voters!

Senator Bob Casey’s race is now at a margin of 0.53%.

An automatic recount in PA is triggered with a margin of 0.5%. That’s a difference of 0.03% or a little over 2,000 votes. We need to make sure every ballot is counted here, and there’s thousands of uncounted ballots right now due to voter error.

Did you mail in a ballot? Check to see it was accepted here:

If it says anything other than accepted/counted/etc, your ballot needs your attention. A mistake in filling it out means that your ballot will not count unless you “cure” it. Check your county’s curing policies:

See full instructions for curing by county here.

You have until November 12 to cure your ballot in PA.

Do you know someone who mailed in a PA ballot? Please pass these links on to them. You may be the difference between their vote counting or not in a super close race.

Everyone else, you can help PA voters cure their ballots. If you live in Pennsylvania, you can help canvass in your county (see links in this thread). If you are in another state, you can sign up to call voters and help them cure by phone.

Want to help another state? Sign up for a shift through November 19.

(copied from @dxckiii on Twitter) this could literally change everything.

They have begun a recount process. WAKE UP YOUR NEVADA FRIENDS AND MAKE SURE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM CHECK iwillvote.com to make sure their ballot was counted. if it says it was denied, they need to call immediately.

Don't scroll past this. If there's any chance someone from Nevada is following you, they need to see it. Get this as far as possible. Be loud. I know it's easy to feel hopeless right now; god knows I was crying my eyes out for a good chunk of last night, but if there's even a shred of action we can take, we can't let it slip by.

If you know anyone in Nevada, please share this with them. Reblog it. Spread it far and wide, ASAP.

20 MILLION VOTES DONT JUST DISAPPEAR!!!

Trump cheated. There’s mountains of evidence. Do not concede, do not let anyone silence you. Use your voice to demand a recount or hell, a revote!! The numbers don’t add up, the entire Trump campaign has been admitting to fraud the entire election season!

Let your voice be heard, don’t let this convicted felon, rapist, and Putin apologist have his way!

USE THIS LINK TO DEMAND A RECOUNT!

I rock with a Transformers themed harm reduction group in Central Florida called Kaon City Medix.

Folks who live in Florida can use our mail order form to request supplies including no-cost Plan B, HRT injection syringes/sharps boxes/bandages & alc pads, all mailed straight to your doorstep for free. You can also check out our Resource Rec List for local, regional, and national resources. We're working on translating all these into Spanish, Arabic, and Kreyol. We distribute free narcan and other supplies locally and work with other groups in area to expand the networks of folks we serve; if you're in the Tampa Bay area, Pasco, or Sarasota and wanna help out, we are accepting new volunteers.

If you think this work rocks and wanna support it, you can always contribute to mailing/other costs via ko-fi or Cshpp/Vnmo @/TeamKombatikon.

Twitch is gonna start kinda censoring queer people and it would be really helpful if you could read the next few sentences and then also go to a link and click the word vote.

They're implementing a new rule where if you discuss "sensitive social issues" at all you have to flag your streams as such, these issues include things like war and political unrest but also any lgbtq topics (once again our existence is political).

Essentially a streamer will have to choose between never ever mentioning anything queer (or even just discussing their own life if they're queer themselves) or flagging every stream with "sensitive social issues" and scaring away 90% of viewers.

If you have a twitch account you can go here and log in and click vote. They do listen. Please vote.
