Weretober Day 3: Hippogryph

Gang, I'm pleased to tell you there's a solution to this shit: an MP3 player.

The first Peanuts strip by Charles M. Schulz was published on October 2, 1950.

Banned Books Week starts on Sunday, October 5—there are a ton of ways to support! Find ways to get involved here: www.ala.org/bbooks/banne... (If you're overwhelmed, even just checking out, buying, or elevating a banned book is helpful! Talking about them w/ the ppl in your life is an action!)

It's a myth that banning a book increases that book's readership. For most books, banning has the chilling effect the censors want. Your favorite banned books need to you be loud for them!

I love environmental storytelling in dystopian sci-fi games.

NEW (FREE) GAME FORTHCOMING: SPINE is a dark solo ttrpg about losing yourself in a book. In SPINE, you are a researcher who has inherited a strange book from an estranged relative…

Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

This is my regular reminder to everyone that jstor is open to the general public now; a free account there will give you access to 100 papers a year.

What if Eursulon didn't leave his theater troupe? What if Suvi didn't escape the Palace of Wind and Stars? What if Ame died in battle? Our latest Patreon-exclusive release, OTHER TOMORROWS, explores all these different alternate storylines and more. Join us: www.patreon.com/posts/wizard...

Great news! JSTOR now have a free account with an Independent Researcher category. You can access 100 documents per month www.jstor.org/action/showL...

If I controlled an animation studio- any animation studio- I would jump both feet forth. Alas- for good or bd- I do not.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

New Releases Video for September 23rd is Live!

"What are you going to say when people ask who did the body?" We're excited to share an excerpt from @edenroyce.bsky.social's southern gothic novella Psychopomp and Circumstance. Let's plan a funeral, and keep the visions to a minimum. reactormag.com/excerpts-psy...

Why don't more authors approach romance as Hard Science Fiction? As @jdnicoll.bsky.social points out, you've got biology, chemistry, and physics helping (or hindering) the course of true love--it's science! reactormag.com/on-writing-r...

Ink studies I made based on the paintings of Caspar David Freidrich (1774-1840). I started these inks back in 2023; it'd been several years since I'd drawn regularly, and I was feeling stuck as to how I could get back into the swing of creating. (cont)

East coast folks! NEXSTAR AND SINCLAIR, which own a HUGE percentage of your local broadcasters, are still kowtowing to fascist 47 and his administration's attempt to stifle free speech. This is bigger than Kimmel. Get out there, (dress like a Jedi?), and let your voice be heard!

Recently finished commission for @rivaanash.bsky.social of their wolven character, dressed in both casual and adventuring gear. Thank you for commissioning me!

This month has been BAD money wise. I really could use more commissions for some emergency cash.

The FDA statement ends with a paragraph undermining its own warning. They signal parents to avoid acetaminophen. Except sometimes. And then: No “causal relationship… established” with ADHD or autism AND Alternatives to acetaminophen have “well-documented adverse impacts.”

my new book is OUT TODAY! it’s been described as "the writer at her best: mystified, curious, pathetic, absurd" — you can buy it here

Christian persecution in America is best defined by this image: No actual struggle, wearing clothes that cost more than my entire wardrobe, polished cross instead of rugged, and surrounded by crowds of fellow hypocrites cheering on bigotry who believe they're the victims.

Weird how this *remains relevant*

Rabbit Trap is a slow, atmospheric dark fairy tale that leans into beauty, warmth, and uncanny folklore over traditional scares. @leahschnelbach.bsky.social reviews Bryn Chainey's writer/director debut: reactormag.com/movie-review...

Genuinely powerful words to live by.

Heyyyyyyyyy it's three days until my birthday... So... throne.com/theropod_art

Fuck your app. I want to be able to visit your website and do everything I need to do there. Apps are for specific functions, the way computer programs used to be.

I think it's becoming clear that if you like indie creators, you're going to need to support them any way you can. And that doesn't mean money, just spreading worth of mouth can be powerful as well.

Also worth remembering, as we talk about Free Speech, that the first speakers the current administration targeted were those demanding the freedom and safety of the Palestinian people.

Naked authoritarian fascism. Love and support to the entire team at @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social, who *will* come out the other side of this horrendous abuse of power. Disgusted to see ABC caving to this glaringly illegal and unconstitutional threat from Brendan Carr.

Do this to voice your outrage at Disney's unjust cancellation of Kimmel and other people's shows for simply practicing their free speech, ASAP.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing. These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.
