It rocks to tell people their shit rocks. Every single person who has ever been nice about my work has been appreciated for doing so. I take time to say I love stuff and it’s always the right time to remind somebody you value their work! You don’t need to get into detail either. Just say it rocks

I can't listen to the song without thinking of

3/3 Join us! The hearing is at the heart of Silicone Valley for a reason. It's meant to damper support and make for an uneven playing field. Let's show them we're ready to meet them wherever, whenever in support for creatives rights and livelihoods! bit.ly/44lRMsX

2/3 AB-412 has a simple ask for tech, if you use copyrighted materials in your dataset, you must let copyright holders know! That’s it! Simple, efficient and extremely easy for tech companies to do. People deserve to know whats in those datasets. Our hard work is not their trade secrets! So-

Cool centipede guys from a few years back

for World AIDS Day, a 1988 cartoon from the Advocate's Gerald Donelan

queer creatives have spent their entire lives surviving out of spite, the idea that you could make some of the most justified haters on earth acquiesce to genAI is delusional. I've trained my entire life for this, you are like a little fucking baby. I will spit on your name from my deathbed.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Would greatly love if you support a queer indigenous creator and help me make cool as fuck games by rting and passing this around. Learn about cool games I'm making here! www.tumblr.com/sahonitherea...

“The National AIDS Memorial, through a partnership with the AIDS Quilt Touch team, presents all 50,000 panels of the AIDS Memorial Quilt in an interactive experience so people around the world can experience the beauty of the Quilt and witness the love and stories stitched into each panel.”

It's World AIDS day. Back in June, we covered the early history of plays about the disease, as theater was one of the earliest venues to address the growing epidemic in American gay communities. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

If you run across a gen A.I. slop 🤖💩 diagram in an academic journal, I’d love to know about it! Please fill out this form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... Slop in journals is illuminating about journals’ quality control. And journals would like you to forget their mistakes. #AcademicChatter

there’s a scene in the new documentary where Elizabeth Taylor is talking about the stigma of AIDS and how she got involved in the movement and it’s fucking everything

HUUUUGE Black bear caught on our garden cam in our backyard in Jersey the other night.

We draw from the infinite pool of our souls, and none will stop us. And today I wanted to paint another wave dragon so I did! Posca markers on canvas ✨

Divine Beast.

More amazing hybrid costume/puppetry stuff. Suspension-of-disbelief level: even the cameraman points to stuff and interacts as if the character can see anything. 💯 What if this but werewolf?

Every year around this time, I ask folks to consider doing something in support of Native people. This year, please join me in supporting the Native Organizers Alliance as they build grassroots power, defend Native voting rights, and equip our people for collective struggle through skill-building.

Today is Thanksgiving in the US, or National Day of Mourning/"Unthanksgiving Day" for some Native Americans. Wampanoag people shared food with pilgrims in 1621 but were repaid with centuries of genocide. More on Indigenous resistance: shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

been posting too much critter monk art and not enough bugs lately. the entomologists are starving. here's some fun wasps from my beetle trap by-catch. Arachnophaga sp. (I think), Pseudochalcura gibbosa, Eusandalum cyaneum, and Balcha indica

This is what the internet SHOULD be. Always keep that ideal in your heart.

1. Good riddance. 2. I am already seeing people on the left praising her and saying she should join the Democrats. HER ENTIRE RESIGNATION SPEECH WAS DUMPING ON TRANS PEOPLE AND IMMIGRANTS. www.huffpost.com/entry/marjor...

Anyway time to post this again. AI is a tool of fascism.

Trying to make a living as somebody who relies on social media for business, while every site CEO is suffering from Big Tech Memelord Disease sucks.

What was that one post back in the day that's like "The Democratic party logo should be two feral dogs tearing apart a baby with the caption "how dare you ask for a better life"

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

These politicians aren't in disarray. They fucking hate you. They don't work for you.

Folks, a pill to swallow: if current Democrats will cave to your healthcare, they will cave to your voting rights. If they will cave to you not getting paid for 40 days, they will cave to LGBTQ+ marriage. If they cave to stalling our airplanes, they will cave to destroying our National Parks.

So, listen, call Schumer’s office no matter where you live, no matter if you’re registered to vote. Leave a voicemail that says if Senate Dems cave without an ACA premiums fix, you will never vote for or donate to another Senate Democrat as long as he is Leader

"A promise of a vote on healthcare"

If you’re canceling and want to preserve your playlists/songs, you can use SongShift. It will help transfer to platforms like Apple Music, Tidal, Pandora, Soundcloud, Deezer, Audiomack, Discogs, Hype Machine, Napster, Qobuz, and YouTube.

you shouldn’t talk to a journalist about how people in need of abortions access them when abortions are outlawed, and this is no different. shutting the fuck up is free.

What a privilege it is to share this planet with spiders and snakes.

this result sticks out as deserving more attention!

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

All of the love and celebration to the hard fought victories in the South tonight. ❤️
