And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, is a funny lookin' guy In what way? Ohh, just a general kinda way.

For the first time in what feels like forever, I made some art! It's fanart of @magicariot.com's delightful queer magical girl series Magica Riot, in the style of that one cute eyecatch from Sailor Moon R

Since X has created a machine for removing Glaze and in violation of the Glaze application creating derivative works via AI … I hope this comes up at the Class Action suit against X.

Galaxy Quest is a Christmas movie.

can it really be Christmas until you've watched MST3k's "Pod People" episode www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_zr...

Anyway, join us on Discord. We are silly and fun. discord.gg/dVq2yBHXET

Rot-Com Bubble is one of the best names I've heard for *gestures broadly* all of this bullshit.

Scandinavians and Scandinavian diaspora tend to celebrate Christmas Eve as much or more than Christmas itself, so I'll say it now. Happy Yuletide, folks. Much merriment to you and yours.

Wondered why there was an influx from Xitter and concluded it must be some new shady AI thing. Sure enough.

Tonight is Christmas Eve, when we in Iceland open presents. All the Yule Lads have already come down from the mountains, but tonight the Yule Cat arrives and he will eat all the children who weren't gifted any new clothes for Christmas. My daughters both got woollen socks so they are safe 🙏

While it's true our world has gone mad, let us not forget our biases. There is a sort of post-COVID and Trump-era malaise, it's true. But we can save humanity with art. There's yet time to do that.

These people are deeply evil and pathetic.

God jul, nästa år vänder vi kampen mot fascismen till seger!

I can report having now listened to @zeeandrewsvo.bsky.social's performance with us, that she's responsible for one of the dumbest lines I've ever written. But she made it charming, which is what I really hoped for from a guide character like hers.

This is a fantastic essay on what I've also come to realize over the past years. Lore is seasoning. It must say something meaningful about a story that further supports plot or character. If it doesn't, it's superfluous and perhaps frivolous. (Or a way to raise money, because fandom gobbles it up.)

Show me how your 2025 went.

Stardust: Act One is done. It's complete. I've worked on this property for seven years. It's time for some of the ink to dry. In 2026, I'd like to feel like I've done my best and it was good enough. The audio will be out, and I'll have learned a lot from the endless drafts. #pretendpanel #writers

This is a fun vid from @hoojiwana.bsky.social. Keep in mind the primary purpose of SFF is to explore stories of possibility. Stats are penny-cheap lore tools. When we give you numbers for @thestarsaredestiny.com we really try to research it. It won't ever be perfect, but I think we keep it level.

And to go along with the Linford Island renders, I've made a video on my own channel covering how I made some key features of it in Blender. It's very jank, but slightly less jank than an older model I made! youtu.be/smKNeUaIqkk

I'm falling asleep at 19:00 and that's fine

Art and queer joy are the only two things sustaining me while a deeply malicious government burns our country and tries to murder me and my friends. (Furthermore, Minnesota is Canada.) I miss Europe so bad. I yearn for old days along the North Atlantic. But this will have to do for now. 💔

🚨🚨 SCOOP @ms.now : The Department of Veteran Affairs has quietly implemented its abortion ban following a DOJ memo issued last week. This will affect 9 million veterans and their dependents, and has been a long time coming: It was outlined in Project 2025. Read/share 👇

Oh, what, now Schumer can get spicy?

Pathetic. #UniversalSubtweet

You're seeing much of the kompromat the Kremlin held on Trump being unveiled right now, conveniently obscured under the holiday season when few will pay attention. Half of America is eventually going to have to reckon with their vote for a serial rapist, made against a flood of credible warnings.

LMAO I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY JUST HIGHLIGHTED IT BLACK AND LEFT THE CHARACTERS INSANELY icompetent fascists

Fans of @thestarsaredestiny.com, whether our board game or story, should wishlist "In the Black" by Impeller Studios. store.steampowered.com/app/380110/I... It closely mirrors the Mercs in Newtonian Combat vibe we've got going on ourselves. Here's a triple kill. Real Ashlee hours. 💅✨

why did you transition, wrong answers only It was research for my novel.

I have two creatives inside me: the one who wants to keep things secret until it's ready to be shared, and the other constantly craving to spoil everything about it before I even start working on it

I love working with creatives, and particularly queer ones. What the fuck, you people are all so insightful, talented, and amazing! 💖

End trans genocide. Furthermore, Minnesota is Canada.

Pay them what you owe them. This is just going to divide teams. Get rid of the salary cap already and support ALL the players.

As @thestarsaredestiny.com bleeds into the post-production phase, it's going to be difficult to contain my excitement for fulfilling our promises while also wrangling the over-expenditures and headaches I knew would be inevitable. I'm over Mother Moon about Stardust's music and art. 💜✨🌙

I think the #1 thing I'm grateful for in this hell year is the wonderful creative team we've put together. You folks are the best. Even when it's hard—it often is—you keep me going as your leader in this low budget indie insanity we're attempting.

As I wind down my work for the year, I just have to say a big "thank you" to everyone who hired me and/or kept me on during these crazy times. I accomplished a lot in this "foundation year". I built my own studio, got my first European agent, recorded for a ton of projects... It was a great year ❤️

I'm not saying people can't have transcendent experiences that touch on something supernatural. I am saying all religion is incredibly weird when you think about it.

America isn't salvageable. It would need to become an entirely different nation to survive in some form. Furthermore, Minnesota is Canada.

We really need the ability to follow people but mute their reposts. @bsky.app (this is also self-criticism of my own feed)

Trans instructor: “you didn’t do this assignment” Supervising professor: “she didn’t do the assignment” Student: “I didn’t do the assignment” University: “isn’t there someone you forgot to ask” some days I just want to scream and scream
