we live in the ruins of a greater civilization

The idea that everybody on the planet must forever be beholden to the default of babysitter of other people’s children except for their actual fucking parents, and as a result any attempt to opt of non-consensual babysitting must include getting my identity stolen, is an idea that must fucking die.

we've already seen how effectively this concept can be weaponized, even without cameras, in those "neighborhood" platforms. they tout themselves as a way for people to keep themselves and their neighbors safe, as a means of fostering community, but during the very brief time i used one, more often +

the way the chairman is reading his lambasting from notes is WILD. like he pre-scripted having a rebuttal for any and all questions he didn't want addressed because he KNOWS the people want answers to questions these assholes don't want their responses to on the damn record. burn it all down.

not qrping cuz i'm just so fkn tired, and i'm about done with current events for the rest of the month already, but. jesus tapdancing christ. predators georg right here. when will it be enough to DO something about it??

eyyyy so. work has been running me ragged on short-ass trips that have paid absolute dick for the past several weeks, so i'm exhausted AND still poor, and after paying rent i'll basically have zero dollars for anything else for a while. treat yoself while helping a girl out? ko-fi.com/kawree/shop

I'll say it again, Art is communication. "Create for yourself" really means "Create art that communicates who you are." And one sided communication feels terrible. Commenting on peoples art/creations can be scary, I get it. But COMMENT. COMMUNICATE. We want to hear it. I want to hear it.

I find myself having to read the article slowly as I'm experiencing genuine grief over the loss of dA, all the friends I made on it, and this period of my life. I realise the death of dA coincides with the time period I stopped considering myself an artist, and stopped feeling good about drawing.

In the early days of the Alt-Right I'd refer to them as the Frog Squad in my newsletter because of how they'd stolen Pepe the Frog cartoons for their memes. I'm absolutely delighted that Portland is reclaiming the frog. It's a full circle moment.

This is getting shared a *lot*, so I want to really encourage direct action. You can call a payment processor using information at stop-paypros.neocities.org Calling is important for them - each call to their support costs them money. The goal is literally to cause them trouble until they yield.

good post, no notes

I’m a PASSIONATE fanfic commenter, but sometimes it slows me down because I feel like I need to leave long notes. But, as an author, I know even a short comment matters. So I made a guide to make it easier. Hopefully this helps someone else too! #fanfiction #fanfic #leaveacomment #harrypotterfanfic

I love the smell of consequences in the morning. Thank you, @dragoncon.org

I actually had to explain to someone recently that the AI that tells enemies in video games how to react to player inputs is NOT genAI and has existed for literal decades. they genuinely had no idea there was a difference. this shit has poisoned the well so bad.
