1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

This one took up all my time between January and April. My friends @devongiehl.bsky.social and @iainhendry.bsky.social lost their home in the LA fires, so I knitted them a blanket to replace the one I made for them in 2023. 'Flying Foxtail' pattern, yarns are Tandem in Kardemumma and Birch Tree.

You’ll survive, but you’ll be funnier in a way that worries people

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

We had a good run

work with me?!

first of all lmao and second of all I’m old enough to have heard this before

oh cool stuff to wake up to, only took 3 days this year instead of 7

i only just found out that bigtop burger is over, what am i gonna do without cesare in my life

For the most part I try to make what other folks are doing not my business. Twitter was enabling some pretty horrifying shit for a long time, but putting a "take this child actress's dress off" button on there is a level of "what the fuck are you doing on this site" that is hard to grapple with.

ah god dammit

2025 tried to kill me and I know several ways 2026 will also try to kill me but at least I can anticipate some of the attacks this time

another day volunteering at the artificial mouth research lab. everyone keeps asking me

Please sign up for early access to my super premium private jet service, Icarus

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, pearl jam, soundgarden, or Alice In Chains

Apparently I'm doing this -- my open letter to that open latter about AI in writing and publishing. I emerged from Hibernation Week to write it, so god only knows how much sense it makes. But at least a human wrote it, so that's nice. Bonus: picture of my "cat," sweet baby Boomba.

Here’s to 2026

Who did this to you? #ocs #ctccomic

hey man it’s almost 2026 can we please let Star Wars and this particular flavor of “stories must answer every logical question or it’s bad writing” go already

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words. But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

It should be noted that after every queer writer in the industry has been told that queer stories are too risky for mainstream media rn, the two biggest shows at the end of 2025 have queer protagonist

the shit I care least in the whole world about is whether the story about the Earl of Sandwich is true. yes it fucking was. my man was playing cards and eating meat with his hands and then he said hold up check this out. you won't believe this shit. bring me some fucking bread & hold onto your hats

New magnetic sketch board for Christmas means demands for new Catbus

Hey #MeetTheWebcomic! I make Keeping Time, a longform drama that's ostensibly a band romance between former friends, but might be better categorized as an adult coming-of-age story where that self discovery is painful and hard-fought. #KeepingTime #webcomics 🎸 keepingtimecomic.com

unfortunately I never progressed past 15 here

i admit i have been a mild hater about some parts of heated rivalry but the most recent episode was real good

I love working at the Department of Justice and participating in a conspiracy to cover up the demented 80 year old president's sex crimes. I spend 18 hours a day redacting documents and there's a putrid husk where my soul used to be

I don't know what to say about this garbage vote to criminalize gender affirming care btw. Been trying to find the words. I hear so many friends in sadness and fear today but of what use is "I hear you"? Not much I fear. To live through this moment sucks ass (negative). We must find a way through

this is about forcing people with breasts to show them in the way approved of by fascists. it is in itself an act of sexual violence and coersion

And here's Scorsese's storyboards for the final massacre in Taxi Driver This applies more generally: people seem to think you need to have a background as a Big Two artist in order to do storyboards, but that's not what they're about - they're visual writing. You're writing for yourself AND others

the entire LA animation industry should get to take turns beating their owed money out of Zaslav like a piñata

And the most believable dad of the year award goes to David Akutagawa, a man who has no idea how to talk to his adult son. His daughter used to be the bridge between them but she's not around anymore. 😞 #KeepingTime #webcomics 🎸 Latest update: keepingtimecomic.com 🎸Start from the beginning

Regular reminder that Kody's Keeping Time webcomic is so, SO good y'all please go read and support the comic, especially if you are a fan of complicated queer messes (y'know, my exact taste)

are we sure dan bongino is not stepping down from the FBI to go be @nicklutsko.bsky.social 's dad

Vitally important that we as the culture-creating underclass always throw tomatoes at these dweebs & never respect them. They won't see our comments, but establishing ubiquitous cultural canon that every ultra-rich guy is a talentless thieving loser is the first step to taxing them into oblivion.

I fucking loathe these smug ass art-hating self-congratulating ghouls & the system that allows them to fail upwards into unfathomable wealth on the backs of 1000s of overworked creative people whose livelihoods get passed around like trading cards every time these dillwads have a stonks circle-jerk.

there were plenty before, but fellow travelers did this literally last year. pay attention y'all

Again I say: how fucking interesting that remote work technology is bad and not worth adopting despite all research pointing to productivity gains, but genAI which offers NOTHING is so important to adopt and force on people who have no use for it despite all the horrible things genAI does

I adore the work and advocacy of Larian, and wish it extended to respecting and refining the craft used in *all* of their processes, rather than selectively eroding them with AI--especially because it's those refined processes that have produced the games so many loved over their last three titles.

A Priest of the Light to counter* that Void Abomination. *kiss

I do not understand how Vincke thought this would go well / be a good look for Larian given the company’s previously aggressive stance on the value and contributions of the human beings who made BG3 so successful We were rooting for you, etc

"Everything is human actors and written by humans, it's just concept art that uses genAI so it doesn't count"

> it's 2am, on Friday > you have a 5pm deadline on writing a meaningful Gaston treatment > literally all you've been given is a sticky note with "eggs" written on it, next to a flexing arm > "eggs" has been underlined 3 times > you've been drunk for 2 weeks straight

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
