The, very, few pagan traditions woven into Christmas are from Saturnalia not Yule. Yule has nothing to do with Christmas aside from proximity. Christmas trees definitely aren't pagan. The only thing we can say is pagan in origin is the gift giving & feast from Saturnalia.

It’s day 26 of the Starbucks strike. These workers are NOT backing down. No contract, No Starbucks!

I think if you're selling something that's heavily used & needs maintenance for more than 50% of its original price you're evil.

I want a button maker, but they're so fucking expensive. People are selling used ones with deep scratches on eBay at prices higher than getting one new from tecre or american button maker.

Ending the special on these BUT am gonna keep this sale open until the end of the year! If you wanna get some heavily discounted art of a lot of mecha, book your comm now! (My comm queue is very big so it may be a bit of a wait ❤️)

Baby mille :3

The only interaction I've had with TPUSA members was when my Art Education outreach table was placed next to theirs during an event at my university. The head of that branch spent almost the entire 4 hours sexually harassing me while passing out anti race mixing pamphlets.

I need the "Sarah Zabiarov, Newtype Burger Manager" spin off manga so badly.

fandom took "canon" from the Bible, why not also take "apocryphal" to refer to side material in which canon status depends on who/when you ask

maybe a little early but i don't see myself drawing anything major for the rest of this year

School girl Rick Dom from a doujinshi I'm editing, circa 1982.

i am never again going to let a conservative get away with complaining about the liberal nanny state because these assholes actually *are* the nagging, inappropriately intrusive boogeymen conservatives have been bleating about for my entire adult life, mind your fucking business

Sometimes I think I'm over exaggerating how dangerous it is to be trans in my hometown, but the local news report of the day being "Man hate-crimed by cops for having long hair" is just lmao...

Turn on the TV. Doesn’t matter what channel.

The issue of listening to experts talk about issues they're not actually experts in is also becoming a major problem among cosmetic/skincare users. There's so many cosmetic chemists & dermottologists getting online to dunk on water quality experts & it's genuinely infuriating.

I do think the greenwashing of AI is indicative of a much greater issue where experts in a specific field will speak over environmental scientists & people affected by disasters & pollution. The amount of times I get recommended videos by scientists "debunking" the environmental destruction caused

Had to cut off & mutual recently for just outright denying the environment impact of AI databases. Not to sound too gatekeep-y, but it's extremely obvious what income bracket these kinds of people are because they're not worrying about one potentially being built in their backyard.

www.gofundme.com/f/help-clair... It has been a long while since I plugged this, but i'm still struggling pretty bad with debt (not even just student loan debt frankly) and it has been an immense uphill battle. anything helps.

“Why don’t people invite us to house parties?”

We're half a decade into studies finding that improving airflow in classrooms will reduce disease transmission enormously, and that bleaching surfaces etc. does very little. And yet nothing changes. Waves of flu and colds wash over schools, and the schools pretend it's an act of God.

Giving parents the discretion not to vaccinate their kids is one of the strongest ways the state reinforces the parent-child relationship as one of ownership. Your parents have the ability to decide whether you will die of preventable disease, because you are their property not a person.

Loving how each next episode preview ends with the narrator booming "WHO WILL SURVIVE?" which at first seems like a charmingly dated piece of cartoon writing and increasingly becomes an open question

our bluesky safety manager replied with this to a woman venting after ICE kidnapped her husband, and then banned her. How do we trust this person to have the empathy needed to be in charge of safety on this website? what the fuck? if we spam the feedback, it might get somewhere @safety.bsky.app
