‼️🚨KICKSTARTER WORKERS ARE ON STRIKE🚨‼️ As of 8am this morning, the workers of Kickstarter United/OPEIU Local 153 are on strike. WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BOYCOTT! Creators and allies, please continue using and supporting the platform.

Thank you to everyone who helped me mourn my Echo. We miss her a lot. The one shining thing is that I really like my new job, I really like the people I work with, and having something to focus on helped take my mind off everything. Have a vintage actual baby Echo (with her much larger brother)

A5: my first published short story, "Miracle Aisle", is out in the Autumn 2025 issue of A Coup of Owls! very excited that this is out in the world :D #weeknightwriters acoupofowls.com/2025/09/15/a...

FALL FASHION TIPPE - Disappear ynto the woodes of an eveninge, when the skye ys lavender and blue. Call unto the powers that dwell ther, and lo! thei appear yn their glamour and their panoplye, radiant. Aske of them what thei have seen and thei will tell thee: 'sorrow.' Accessorize wyth a scarf.

why are rich people so damn boring? if I had all the money in the world I would create my very own animation studio, pay all my employees really well and have them animate my favourite fanfictions

We said goodbye to Echo today. The goodest, stripiest girl, the Queen of our house. We love you, babycat.

Okay. Waiting for the bus and now there’s a spark of nerves lol

Tomorrow is my first day of work at my new job - I haven’t worked in about a year and a half and I haven’t had a new job for 20 years. Am I calm? Reasonably so, but still a little anxious.

as a part of your local library....please do!! there's so many services you could be taking advantage of: language services, video/music streaming, ebooks/audiobooks, and much more!!! not to mention whatever unique services your local library offers!!!

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

Hello everyone, I've made a place, where I'll be writing blogs about my art and comic making process, sharing WIPs and process videos, uploading free art references for us to sketch together, and posting c0mmission sign-up sheets /early/ for patr0ns. 🧡 patreon.com/caseybieda

Black trauma is the US norm and after today it’s more than obvious that no one but us sees it, hears it, or cares about it or us regardless of how far and how regularly we fight against it. The US has effectively told us that they’re done and we do not matter. But they’ve always told us that, tbh.

"Violence has no place in politics" You think cutting off funding for food, education, housing and medical care isn't violent? You think arresting, jailing, deporting and killing people for the color of their skin isn't violent? Worms are in a lot of brains if you think violence isn't already here.

I sent my personal opinion of current events with my Memoji to @janenx01.bsky.social and it pretty much sums up everything

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

got some pretty amazing screenshots of Alistair striking the final blow to Flemeth!

This is a Melissa Hortman appreciation account for the next 24 hours.

Losing so many innocent lives that we can only focus on the loss of the evil ones.

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

At some point, the white community is going to have to do something about the high rates of crime in white neighborhoods.

I wish y’all lived closer because the witches market is this Sunday and I could use a cool coven looking at handmade goods and shiny rocks with me 😞

Do it. Search your name. Take their money. It’s yours anyway.

Racing with the stars

It’s hard to get a picture of your own elbow - here’s the growing bruise in all its glory, from elbow (aka: point of impact) and down my forearm. 😬

Yoooooo, I got the job!! I won’t start for another week or two because I was finally told by my attorneys that the accident driver’s insurance WAS gonna pay for care, literally as I was getting hired at my new lab 🫠 so I have to settle some stuff with them, plus heal my sprained elbow

With all the usual caveats about how we shouldn’t have to, this is very clever. Suggests it’s worth a Nobel Peace Prize in the first paragraph, talks about commitment to transparency in the second, provide links that they know he’ll never click.

What if swooping was good, actually?

when an earl becomes a 🤴

Wrist and elbow are still sore, and I’m still somewhat limited in movement, but thanks to icing and anti-inflammatories, it’s got enough function (I hope) for my working interview today

"Relief feels like happiness, if you don’t know the difference." @tkingfisher.com SO thrilled about my Saint of Steel-inspired tattoo by www.instagram.com/neon.alchemi...

Pray for me as I do my best to get this mammoth of a project I set for myself finished in a month 🙏 it's gonna be so worth it though. (The final will be a 16"x20" illustration) PS if you can read my scribbles, you're a god. I'll list the species on the final image but not here.

Icymi I'm planning to open my Patreon in the middle of September. One tier, lots of cool stuff 😎

I am…in so much pain 🤣🫠 even my tailbone and my shins are screaming. Last night had to do the home sleep test too so like…it was a rough night 🤣

…it’s been a month you guys. Fell on the concrete and banged up my elbow and wrist pretty badly. Not broken, even though it hurts a lot. Got some good patches of road rash on my leg too. 🤣 spending the day on the couch with pillows

When your love for your brother outweighs your 42 year old eyesight and inability to see stitches in black yarn 😬 (he really liked the market tote I crocheted for his wife, so he asked for one himself)

If you’ve ever worried whether art matters. It does.

POV: You finally got the blue chickens from Shane

trumpwatch is the bluesky version of buying a powerball ticket. It's not about the odds, it's about the dream

Lots and lots of stuff happening in the background rn, but here’s my exciting Friday night/cat tax

go my slorgs 🐌🐌🐌

Leia who??? This is all about Watto

Guys, I have a special & unusual request today. My cousin Sean is a union bus driver here in Los Angeles who was just FIRED in retaliation for saying he would not let masked ICE agents onto his bus to abduct riders. The fight is on to get his job back, you can help: actionnetwork.org/letters/send...

It's Minnesota State Fair time! It's time for Minnesotan folk art! Here, for example, is Saturn Devouring His Corn, in the seed art category!

Evaluation at the sleep clinic this morning! And true to form, I had a very crappy sleep so I’m good and tired for this appt. Except I have to wait to leave for the bus and waiting makes my skin crawl.

If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: Doesn’t matter if it’s awful Doesn’t matter if it’s nice If it confirms your bias, check it twice! ::clap clap::

When I talk about my therapy appts, this is what therapy looks like 🤣 (therapy snail courtesy of @tulipathy.bsky.social who has sat with me through every session for the last two years 💖🐌)

Spent almost two hours on the phone yesterday getting turned down by all the local walkable PT places, but I think I’m on to one nearby that is just a single bus ride away. 🤞 in the meantime, I crocheted a Stardew valley chicken (practice color, I have much more accurate yarn)

👑⛸️💜

I want them to make a special prize that just says GO FUCK YOURSELF in Swedish and Norwegian around the rim.
