Just heard about this. So you know that prank that any new guy on a work crew gets, like being sent to get checkered paint, or headlight fluid, etc a thing that doesn't exist? In a US military weapons program, the newbies were told they were working on alien tech and were sworn to secrecy.

So crop circles were appearing in legal poppy fields in Tasmania. Farmers put up cameras to figure out what was causing the crop circles.. Wallabies would get into the field, eat the bugs drinking poppy milk, get RIPPING high, and hop in circles til they passed out.

Been feeling this a while, but I swear I want to make a pro-creator platform that supports adult stuff, unlike Patreon, Kickstarter, etc etc. No censorship as a founding principle. Which probably wouldn't succeed at getting the payment processors to take it.

The discourse around "This is a tell for AI writing" really only serves the AI bros, because (they believe) it will tell them how to change the AI to make it indistinguishable from a human. We need to keep our em dashes. Our rules of three. The tell for AI is: is it hollow, does it say nothing.

The snobbery towards dubbing really offends me. For me it's an accessibility issue. I am physically unable to read the subtitles and watch the movie at the same time. But all I hear is "Ugh if you don't like subtitles you're lazy". Which is a lot like the attitude towards audiobooks.

When I see ads that are very targeted at me, it actually makes me look at the ones that AREN'T appealing to me. And I wonder "Are these just not targeted, or are you REALLY WRONG in what you think would appeal to me?"

This is how you end up with hotels that don't want us back. Don't do shit like this, especially with signs like this that are part of building codes with legal ramifications. It reflects on the entire community. We didn't always have a good amount of cons. That trust was built up over decades.

oh god was he in the files

A problem I have with mute characters in fiction is that the characters never make any sounds. "But they're mute", you say. Here's the thing, you make sounds by 2 different ways: Your vocal cords Air going past your lips. It's the difference between humming and whistling.

Like I said: the civil rights era never ended. You are still in it. The most important form of free speech, is the right to vote. Racists don't want Black people to vote. So they wrote down a plan to stack the Supreme Court with people that would make it harder for Black people to vote. It worked

Heard this quote and I haven't stopped warming my hands on the sick burn: "For people who hate socialism, libertarians sure do like being publicly owned." Aubrey Gee (Not sure if exact spelling)

Shit like this is why god doesn’t talk to us anymore

My second novel, a follow-up to The Eternal Party, is now available for purchase through FurPlanet and BadDogBooks.

Oh also, Clayface movie. I AM SO READY. Always liked Clayface, and it's body horror through and through. MY JAM.

As I got older I've grown afraid of sharks. Mainly because they scary in my dreams. So any time I have a shark in my mind's eye, I make them wear the Groucho Marx glasses/nose/mustache. Which...makes me want to think about them more.

Seen elsewhere: Justice is best served cold. Otherwise it's justwater. @erkhyan.bsky.social @dark-end.bsky.social @resolute.bsky.social

IT'S COMING OUT. The distribution rights were sold. Some heroes don't wear capes. :O

Woow. First time in a long time I've seen "people into catgirls/furries are really just into bestiality" in the wild. It is a real challenge to not lose my shit.

It's really frustrating and bumming me out how hostile the internet is getting to any sort of sexual content.

Pets being fur babies implies that owners are skin parents.

New post: “Review: The Eternal Party” https://giants-club.net/articles/review-eternal-party/ An exploration of kink that subversively encompasses an exploration of trauma and grief, woven together with uncommon deftness.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

Dear apps. ALL of you. Stop pressuring me to turn on push notifications. It is never going to happen.

Would a woman who acts like a bro be called a sis?

FA isn't showing all the submissions that were still in my gallery, but it still lists the submissions as there (over 1000s). Since it was down yesterday I hope this is just a bug or something and everything wasn't simply wiped.

The entire Afroman situation would make an absolutely killer Reno 911 episode. I mean the reality, the trial,e tc is way crazier and more hilarious than any fiction. But, setting that aside, it really is perfect REno 911 territory.

Let me share one of my regular viewing pleasures. AntsCanada, a YT channel has an ongoing series, the creator has added (so far) 4 huge vivariums to his house to show ecosystems in action. There's dramatic narration alongside following the lives of the creatures. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpuf...

@sonney.com Hey Kevin, I saw something online that made me think would belpful for chickens. (Sorry if you already do this!) Paint the chicken wire black (with pet-friendly paint). This takes the glare off the wire, letting you see through it easily to check on the chickens from a distance.

Alright folks! Azure City is now available for pre-order on the Sofawolf Shop! • Pre-orders run from now until April 1st (no fooling) and will ship the first week of April. • Anything you order along with a pre-order item will ship at the same time. shop.sofawolf.com/product-page...

Is Hank Green on a quest to appear on every podcast and YT channel?

as Trump reportedly considers sending ground troops in to open the straight of hormuz, it's worth remembering how much extra, unnecessary danger it puts US troops in to preemptively declare "we will murder soldiers who surrender to us" (which is what "no quarter" means)

"Furries aren't new, Ancient Egyptians had furry art" OKAY hold on here. Yes, humanity has DRAWN depictions of anthropomorphic characters throughout history. But I don't think they were self-identifying as them nor fapping to them.

Pitched my TTRPG to a crowd last night, got 4 people who expresed interest. Gave them my email. So far, not one of them has contacted me. :/

Good news. People expressed interest in the in-person TTRPG I want to run. Bad news: People expressed interest in interacting with me in person. AND I have to run a TTRPG. :X

"I haven't seen a movie in theaters since..." is the new "I haven't had cable since..." People love bragging how long it's been since they went tot the movies.

thank fuck for some small bits of good news www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

The downside to learning about new TTRPGs is you want to PLAY those TTRPgs.

"Clusterfuck" is such an interesting word. Isn't that basically an orgy?

As someone who doesn't like coffee, tea or beer, I feel like I am an outsider to a big chunk of adult conversations.

Someone needs to rescue the word "eminent" because it has been so severely tortured this week.

AI-generated artwork is officially not eligible for copyright protection after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the appeal. The court ruled that a work must have a human creator in order to qualify for copyright. (Link: www.reuters.com/legal/govern...)

Now when I see important practical historical discoveries/technology, in the back of my mind I think "better remember this in case I get isekai'd". I am such a goober.

It was inevitable that al this 80s nostalgia would lead us to bringing back WWIII fears.

Olympia, WA just codified protections for polyamorous and non-monogamous families. Now renters can move all their partners in without claiming "room mate" or "friend" to avoid discrimination. theolympian.com/news/local/a...

I hate that Clavicular's stupid words are filtering into our internet lexicon.
