Reposting this because apparently he's active again on here. Definitely recommend blocking.

The competition and jealousy you feel with other artists is fake and put there by an industry hungry to squeeze you dry. You have so many peers you don't know about. Use cheap equipment and steal when possible. Shower. Coffee and water work the same as booze and water do. Advertise offline.

Maybe five people are in charge of why you're not at the level of success you dream of and all five are people who suck at making art and are worse at making friends. Make friends and share contact lists. I cannot stress enough: expensive equipment is garbage without talent and experimentation.

I’m sorry it’s been hours and I’m still periodically laughing at this

Well, mutual aid folks, this one is 1. Stupid and 2. For me Because I went ahead and fucked up my wheelchair today and I don't have cash to fix it having given my money away. It's annoying, but it's $2k I have to find. Venmo linda-tirado-3 PayPal [email protected] Sigh. My bad. Thx

Gothdamnit, I keep getting left alone with a fully loaded internet and a headful of weed on a sunday night. I did, admittedly, ask for this.

Soft? Check. Capable of fitting a hand? Check. Energetic, weird, funny(?). Check. Mission succeeded.

been a crazy week in 2000 different ways, but folks should stop for 5 seconds & look at this as a hopeful sign. i’m just a random woman online but gutting the anti trans shit from these bills looks a lot like the end result of pressure on dems. did you call? thank you. KEEP THE PRESSURE ON.

Please understand this is happening in literally dozens of locations around the city simultaneously. If an ICE vehicle stops, community members materialize in seconds and do everything they can to stop the kidnappings. We are under siege and using every tool to fight back.

I have tiny TBR space and would love to hear about something/someone new if possible. Please send recommendations for... Short stories, preferably by marginalized authors. Bonus points for very high heat and/or horror. Cozy horror will get you a medal. Self-pub always preferred but not required.

I have several for you! @danifinnwrites.bsky.social has a number of short stories, including a series of 'lesbian necromances.' @deetheredwitch.bsky.social has slightly longer fare, but amazing ace horror in Saltbrook. @itsviviactually.bsky.social has Shadows Over Ravenkirk, a novella...

Cakes with frosting that says "HI, SORRY YOUR EX IS BEING AN UTTER CUNT." Should really be a goddamn industry standard. Like, walk into a bakery and take your pick of six already ready to go.

I don’t think they’re misreading them so much as they are terrified of the implications because it means the status quo has to break. there’s no incrementalism for this. mass radicalization of this scale scares Democrats more than anything Republicans could do and I mean that literally.

How is it we know a name but aren't sure what color his brains are?

... where both at home (David Brooks) and abroad (Times of London) we see conservatives treating the Goods' pretty light mocking of ICE agents as somehow equivalent to murdering one of them and calling her a "fucking bitch" as she dies.

One of the reasons I push back as hard as I do on "cities are scary" nonsense is that I do not accept the view that we should treat unfounded fears as legitimate, and we have too long indulged the unfounded, racist fears of conservatives. And that in turn is leading to a moment...

Not saying Dems should ignore suburbs and rural areas, but I think they need to put forward a vision celebrating urban and diverse spaces. It is what scares a lot of people about Mamdani, because he gives people that sort of vision

Just had a guy going door to door among the businesses along Minnehaha Avenue drop this off. Hell yeah.

Some of y'all hold opinions about people with criminal records and less educational attainment that suggest you should work on both your elitism and your faith in US social institutions

Just a reminder: propaganda works by pervasive repetition, not logical consistency

You see, if I stay in this abusive relationship regardless, that’ll really show them

Hey blueskies, today would be a good day to finally turn on infinite reskeeting.

Good Morning, World.

if you’re going out to protest this weekend leave you god damn phones at home, the feds have massively powerful ways to scoop up your location and follow it far and wide from there. and if you do bring your god damn phone don’t post god damn pictures of your comrades faces on god damn social!!!

A lot of unexpected emergency bills have hit all at once and I can use any sales I can get rn, if this crosses your timeline PLEASE repost so I can get some eyes on my stuff! Placecalledbliss.bigcartel.com #transaid #art #blueskynightmarket #jewelry #painting #abstract

Conservatives have so throughly dehumanized anyone not like them that they really are just out here cheering on the extrajudicial murder of an American citizen too. She’s just a queer liberal woman, all reasons she’s not really human, so of course she was fine for her to be murdered by the state.

Like they’ve done this to trans people, Black people, immigrants, indigenous folks and disabled people for ages. But it really just extends to anyone to their political left or not a straight white man at this point.

Like with most popular cyberpunk, mainstream Dark Science discourse would probably revolve around people attempting to call it "apolitical," despite the overt Marxist and anti-imperial themes.

Right okay new topic: i'm adding a zine library to the booth, basically a shelf full of free infostuff. Which means I need free to print zines, if anyones got links saved to some good ones.

The reason you can't stand the Stranger Things ending is because you, like me, despise the idea of a return to normalcy. The status quo was broken and wrong to begin with, going right back to it with smiles on our faces feels integrally wrong. That or you're obsessed with boys, which, um, really?

So many that they no longer require signalling that they are trans. So many that they are no longer a headline. So many that their primary draw is their characterization. So many that cis women can recognize themselves in them like we recognize ourselves in them. This, over time.

Featherweight seems fine, but my beginning and end to the discussion on representation is that so long as representation is the goal, you will always fail. Represent one voice and leave silent the others. Under capital, a goal is to write as man trans, black, gay, indigenous, etc chars as we can.
