now and forever

It's a couple days later than I expected, but I set up a fundraiser for what I'll (hopefully) need to get started on jewelry stuff. My goal currently is to try to afford some precious metals (Likely Stirling. Dear *god* the price of gold right now...), some gems, and settings. Earrings aren't hard-

Staff being able to apply an adult content label to an entire acct overrides the label function and is not a good thing. Do you know how many newcomers don't know that their default moderation settings hide us from view completely and they just assume we don't exist? This is shoving us out of sight

What I would give for something like that here. Granted, everyone would be fired in the first hour. But it's better than the bullshit we have now.

-Damn.- I was confused for a minute. "I don't remember these scenes in Cowboy Bebop..." ... It's because they aren't. They just fit the *style* that well. This is amazing.

Think in the morning I'm going to set up a thing proper, but I'm going to start asking for money to finish a set up for making jewelry. Rings, pendants, necklaces, earrings... All I have right now is some copper wire, but I need some other kind of income besides a continuously questionable security

Set up a recurring, monthly delivery for fifty people for the next forty years. The delivery will be made to their current abode, wherever they move to. It will follow them. They cannot escape. The delivery? ... A single rubber duck, in a box, with a note: "It knows what you did."

Yeah, well. We may have made it up, but enough people have bought the lie that anyone who tries to break out of it is ostracized, or winds up dead or imprisoned. Recognition is all well and good, but it won't let you eat or get out of the cold or heat.

Please consider helping my get my jewelry equipment if you can! As a maker of physical media, you can be *damned* sure nothing I touch will have ai. I'm doing something that AI -physically can't.- Producing -real, solid, physical art,- that you can hold, and touch, and wear.

there's a lot more I still need. I know times are hard right now, so there's no obligation, but helping me do this will help pay my bills, and help bring a little more beauty into the world. <3 Thank you all for reading, sharing, and especially, donating. spot.fund/JunipersJewe...

to make, and rings and pendants aren't too bad, either. I've already got thoughts about Tree of Life pendants, but I need some different wire for that. The stuff I have now is just too thick. I've put the couple of donations I've already received towards some buffing equipment and compound, but-

if you are someone who makes anything, anything at all, with your own real brain and hands, I respect you so so much and am begging you to keep doing it.

... Damn. Wish it worked that way for fennec videos.

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) isaiprofitable.com

Update on the moving situation, we have a screening for the place we're hopeful for on Wed If you can donate to our crowdfund, the direct financial support is very appreciated but I'll be real it'll also be a big help at this step just having more in my bank account to show them spot.fund/68f9866sc

This is probably almost certainly me self sabotaging , but even with making that ring and how well it came out, I just... Can't bring myself to set up the crowdfund... I see so many posts about people trying to make rent, or buy food, or any of a dozen other things, and just... How can I justify-

Finished up that ring this morning. This is about as far as I can get without polishing equipment, but... I'm happy, for having 20 years since my last thing I made.

🌑This looks amazing and terrible and I wanna watch it.

If I’m not evolved enough to understand it, then why did they have to steal my writing to train it?

Suspicious shoelace

Actually spent a couple hours this morning working on a braided copper wire ring to show off for pictures on the GoFundMe. Realizing I don't have any polishing stuff to make it really look pretty, but at least I know I've still got the skills. It's sitting in the de-scaling solution right now. I'll-

the wire and other stuff is kind of a mixed bag. Anyway. PayPal is at: PayPal.me/Gintasa Please disregard the deadname. x.x

Before I get the official thing set up (can't promise it'll be in the morning. I work nights, and I'm usually exhausted when I get home) I'll toss my PayPal link up, here. I'd post an Amazon wishlist, but they've been kind of hit or miss with the things I need... They have some of the tools, but

Work the metals. I can't cast anything without a whole other set up, but I know the basics of the how. I just need supplies, and those aren't cheap...

I probably won't be doing sterling or gold for a *while,* without a custom order, and precious stones are the same, but I'm familiar with copper, brass, nickel silver (also called German silver), twisted and braided wire, wire wrapping, and setting cabochon stones. I know how to braise, form, and

Job. Unfortunately, I need supplies... Fuel for the torch, more kinds of wire, gems, settings, a better workbench, a vise, polishing equipment and compound... It's not going to be cheap, even with already having a chunk of the tools and basics I need. I'm looking at over a grand worth of stuff...

Been thinking about this Tweet a lot lately...

Remember we have their ear right now. They're already requesting public comments on debankment practices. Go file.

"Made it with AI" Invisibly appearing over my head:

For clarity’s sake, it’s going to be kinda expensive because it’s a king size bed, and because I’m -430lbs, so it has to be sturdy.

Seriously thank you for any help you’re able to provide, whether financial or spreading this around; my back is already so bad, I can’t let it get any worse.

If anyone is able and willing to assist, I’d be immensely grateful, especially ahead of the upcoming move in less than a month a half, because it will definitely not survive another move. www.paypal.com/paypalme/tia...

There’s an enormous unsupported zone where my entire upper body rests and I keep waking up throughout the night in more pain than usual, but I can’t afford to replace it.

So I’m just putting this out here because I dunno what else to do. I’m a disabled trans woman, and my sleep has been trash for a while now, and that’s in part because my bed frame is broken and collapsing in on itself in slow motion.

GO! MY LABUBU MISSILE! KILL!

Billionaires must be targeted with tax policy and antitrust policy not because it helps everyone else (though it does) but because their political power must be limited so they can't wreck the world the way they're currently doing

No, Colossal's resurrected nothing. They made designer dogs to look like Game of Thrones animal actors. And Colossal co-founder George Church? Friend of Epstein who kept the predator's genetic samples in his Harvard Medical School lab, which were pushed as priority for sequencing. Do. Not. Trust.

Everyone keeps saying it's $1.8 billion so I missed the fact that it is actually $1.776 until I heard someone say it out loud, and I want to leave the fucking timeline where even the most blatant corruption you've ever seen is also a meme pun parody of patriotism just because they wanna rub it in.
