Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.

is it to predictable to bleach my hair to get a streak of white like a true goth

My experience with piracy is if someone who was never going to pay for my work turns into a fan that is worth more financially than what I’d lose from that first transaction

This was obvious from the moment it was announced, but still worth mentioning. The genocide never ended.

Treasure Planet was released 23 years ago today... and literally takes us off in this magnificent shot. ✨

controversial statement but i think it's ok to question why suddenly adult female celebrities all seem to weight like 45kg if not less. like it's not a coincidence and it's not like a random celebrity has an ed, it's a movement they're promoting and it affects all of us (mostly fem-presenting ppl)

La cultura de la cancelación, claro, claro. Le arruinas la vida a un tío, ya se ve

Fuck STRANGER THINGS (on Netflix) Noah Schnapp (plays Will Beyers) is a Zionist, racist, and genocide supporter. He’s made horrible comments and been allowed to keep his job whilst they fired Susan Surandon and Melissa Berrara for speaking up for Palestine.

This Black Friday and Cyber Monday don’t buy into genocide. Avoid these brands enabling Israel’s ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza. https://loom.ly/TpPQsDY

“It’s part of their genocidal intention to destroy [Palestinians].” A leading human rights group has published the testimony of a Palestinian man who says guards used a dog to rape him in a notorious Israeli detention camp. Read the full report: novara.media/43T10Nb

For people unaware and playing/streaming Where Winds Meet, it uses GenAI for NPC chat bots, and let's you import a photo of yourself and a voice clip for character creation, which I'm sure I don't need to explain why that is fucked up And no AI disclosure on Steam 🙃

gAI art is bad because it's stealing labor. stealing labor from art is easy because no one sees art as labor, they see it as talent. they see it as talent because it's easier to believe they have a right to hate you because they can't stand they gave up and you didn't. fuck them, pay labor.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend

i wish roleplayers would understand that "that's what my character would do" is not always valid. because if your character would do something, first you have to check if it goes against any rp rules, spoken or unspoken (best if spoken to leave less room to drama), +

u ever see someone's art and you're like i wanna eat that

found out theres a new mighty nein episode thanks to a spoiler.. 😔

We have created a device that shall be integral to your life, to the point where it will be hard to function in society without one; we would prefer these devices to break annually and for you to purchase a new one at full price. If you don't, that's called hoarding. They're a thousand dollars each.

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.

love living under a hays code/comics code authority except it's in some ways worse, because it's not actually codified anywhere and it's enforced opaquely on purpose to avoid accountability at every stage

it's so hard to research for pcos because most people who give advice promote pseudoscience for some reason 😔

it's funny when you're transmasc but you have pcos so you're told to take a treatment that's often used for transfems lol

Please look at this. *Really* look at it. And realise that even if you do insist there are issues with the data, or try to "Ah, but ~of course~ NPC soldiers should be men!" it away, any result that even vaguely resembles this chart should still be considered shameful. This is 30+ years of stories.

Estos trabajadores saben cómo funciona la IA y piden a sus amigos y familiares que no la usen: “Es un 'no' rotundo en mi casa” “He aconsejado a familiares y amigos que no compren teléfonos que tengan IA integrada y que no le cuenten a la IA nada personal”

25 de noviembre, Día Internacional de la Eliminación de la Violencia contra la Mujer 1997, Ana Orantes. Hasta 2003 no se empezaron a contar la víctimas. En 2004 se aprobó la Ley contra la violencia de género.

Yo entiendo el impulso de querer volver a tuiter (o a Tuenti en 2009), pero esos sitios ya no existen. Somos Ulises, han pasado veinte años, hay gorrones haciendo banquetes en nuestro salón y bebiéndose nuestro vino. No hay a donde volver

Dragon Age: Inquisition (2014).

haha this is so weird

BREAKING: The death toll in Gaza since the October 10 ceasefire began has risen to 318 Palestinians after seven more bodies were brought to hospitals across the enclave in the past 48 hours. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/7gsnkj

Gods this is so real. Realism is a technical still, sure! It shows your understanding of a medium, of light, or the ability to copy a photo. But it's not everything. It's not the ONLY thing. You can make amazing non-realistic art. You can make amazing stylized art. Cute, funky, weird, great art.

The U.S. is never going to stop terrorizing and killing people out of compassion. That's a truth people should internalize.

La muerte de Satoshi Kon ha significado reírse de su memoria desde entonces. Y tengo 3 ejemplos: El primero es que trabajó sin descanso para que su última película viera la luz cuando le diagnosticaron un cáncer terminal de páncreas (Sigo).

I feel like the last couple decades of "is representation good or not?" discourse missed more important questions of "how fragile is representation?", "what do we do when multiple industries eliminate it as an intentional move against us?" and "how can we sustain queer artists when shit goes south?"

Sharing the video of this because it’s such a ghoulish thing to say that I’m honestly in disbelief that I even heard her properly

Mamdani is officially the new AOC (derogatory af)

Acabo de recordar una anécdota que me contó mi padre. En los años siguientes a la muerte de Franco, trabajaba en una farmacia que quedaba al lado del mercado. Un día su jefa vio que compraba pescado y dijo que adónde vamos a llegar, que hasta los pobres pueden comprar pescado fresco.

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical. You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

saturation with Tolkien spinoffs has somehow not prepared our culture for the arrival of dark lords bearing a gift that everyone becomes convinced they can wield to accomplish great things but just makes them dependent and start whispering about preciouses if you suggest just throwing it away

Feliz cumple a la muerte de Franco!!!! 50 años ya!!! Qué decirte que no sepas!!!!!

Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices. If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

eating raw almonds is great cause you're just calmly eating and suddenly a bitter one attempts to end your fucking life

This is a nuts story. An AI chatbot and image platform left millions of images exposed. They show what people are actually using the AI for: taking random women's yearbook, graduation, and social media photos and making super realistic hardcore porn with them www.404media.co/ai-porn-secr...
