Good call, should be standard policy at all cons imo

shark rant, politics, so on if you can go 6+ years supporting a fascist and not change even when things get worse, even when people you know and love are being hurt, then you're ultimately a fascist too i don't care if you think the art or character or whatever is hot, they're a shit person

Deskilling is real. This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service. Don't outsource your brain to this shit. You'll regret it.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

SPOOPY MONTH! Means it's time for Autumn art, and spooky art, I'd say!

american oomfs check your fridge. you don't fw listeria

I WANT my tax dollars to pay for immigrant health care, documented or not. I WANT to help pay for everyone to be healthier because it is better for ALL OF US and it's the right thing to do. I want a functioning society of kindness, not a horde of ravening individuals trying to step over each other.

Really stark how there are only like a handful of political leaders in the country who are like “I think it my job to be helpful to the people who hired me”

People who do the essential work of keeping society afloat are all being laid off and going without pay, putting a strain on the entire economy via domino effect... But the tackiest, trashiest, ostentatious ballroom is still being grafted onto what is being rebranded the Dictator's Mansion.

Internet censorship and digital IDs will kill online spaces, especially for queer people of all ages. Especially if queer culture continues to be framed as child abuse, opening it to punishment for existing. The internet needs to return to being a free and neutral place.

Oh the governments shut down? Damn that's crazy. Anyway here's the full Hazbin Hotel S2 Trailer: #hazbinhotel

"Light 'Em Up" -- "Alright bud- first we'll nab the last bandit, get this off my junk, then claim that reward. I'll need ya to hold that flashlight real steady for me. Just a little higher, bud, a little high- wait, what the flark are you doin' back there, rookie?"

"Door Duty" "Okay listen, rookie- Nova Corp's gonna be busting in any minute. I'll need you to keep an eye on the hatch behind me while I finish up here. It's...j-just a few more seconds, bud...just uh, gimme the signal when you...hear 'em...coming...!"

"Early Bird Special" -- "Rocket, have you seen my-" "No." "...I'm pretty sure you're wearing-" "No." "...Could you at least put some pants-" "No."

"Wake-up Call" -- "Alright, alright, I'm up. I swear, these crutackers schedule these briefings for exactly when I'm getting into a good dream, JUST to mess with me." "Uh, Rocket? Your uh..." "...look, I said it was a good dream, can we move on?"

"Undercover" -- "Alright rookie, I've got eyes on the flux core, it's in the VIP section behind a protection grid. It looks like I'll have to stay in-character until the place clears out to nab it. ...if you breath a word about this to anyone, I'll throttle ya, you hear me?"

Cranked out some more clothing practice for an upcoming piece. This is what Rocket's summer costume would be if Marvel wasn't afraid of the sheer power of this fit.

Anyone need an LVFC roommate? :D

Just having a moment reflecting on what a ridiculous state we're in, where the president is making "deals" with private universities by personally meddling in federally allocated education and research funding and this is being treated as just ordinary politics.

With October upon us and Halloween parties soon to abound. It pays to be reminded that sometimes those friends who show up at a party, then don't reach back out again afterwards. It's likely not that you threw a shit party. But instead they got ate, and carried off inside someone else's gut~

Post something random or have an awful October.

Casual reminder that conservatives hate Wikipedia and are driven to destroy it because it’s one of the last bastions of fact-driven information. You should donate to Wikipedia because the fact that it exists at all is a miracle.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

I wish that the puphood community had the same dedication to not replicating other makers' work as artists & fursuits. Please stop supporting those companies doing it cause you're getting it for free, or you can just 3D scan it. Why do folks think it's worth less?

Nobody asked for it. We did it anyway. If you ever used Winamp during the later years, it had an awesome, awesome visualizer called Milkdrop. The Webamp people implemented a workalike called Butterchurn. Internet Archive now supports Webamp and Butterchurn. Just click on the llama!

Be sand in their gears. Nothing is inevitable.

Hey there I'm still trying to get verified on Vgen! I'm four away from ten followers. but still far away from the other goals. I would be grateful for those willing help or just reblog this to help get some traction. vgen.co/XristiEno

CW / #vore For @hexthegon.bsky.social and @bandel.bsky.social A duo of drakes wanted to get to a tropical island with a fishy friend and instead of renting expensive boat they are taking a cozy ride inside the tail

oh, this explains why I haven't seen too many Japanese artists lately.

Not my picture but my god this EXACTLY sums up why I'm so done with goddamn internet discourse. Everyone feels they have to have a take. It feels like people are seeking out negativity rather than just... enjoying what they do like. I genuinely don't wanna be around people who act like this anymore

Some days it's good to remind folks that bunnies are hot. Particularly with a good selfie of the goods, as it were. ^..~

KOSA is now in red alert priority. Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA We need to turn out in numbers against this!

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have unveiled a promising new vaccine that generates a powerful immune response against HIV and other viruses including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza with just ONE dose. By combining immune-boosting adjuvants, the vaccine encourages the body to generate more antibody variations.

we're gonna have to make a choice eventually

Hi, firefighter here. Don’t do this. I watched the video and the risk of flashover was insane. Ventilation was so poor that this guy is a guarantee lung cancer now. Jimmy effectively killed this man’s future for clicks.

I live with this lovey old kittyboy too, he's an affection radiator and we all melt with cuteness when he graces us each day ;w; We love him so much and we're doing all we can to keep him comfortable, so please, ANY generosity is deeply appreciated, and helps support him too... Thank you so much 🙏

Some amazing gay history. Listen up kids.

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

Honestly, what I've learned over time is that in order to truly be intelligent, you HAVE to be humble. You have to be able to admit you don't know something before you can learn it. I hate that modern schooling teaches us to be embarrassed for not knowing something.

this is great - note that there's still police, but they're now part of a larger, county-wide department. the extreme localism of US policing is a *huge* part of its corruption, especially when you get to stuff like sheriff's departments.

Just in case anyone is unaware, "public discourse on social media has grown toxic" is jargon speak for "We at bluesky are being rightfully criticized left & right for allowing & encouraging right wing fear mongering & hate speech, while also silencing & endangering LGBTQ+ voices & we're tired of it"

This is why it's called FRAMING by the way.
