For those interested in paying for a platform that will actively protects its users, here's where you can pay us (Northsky)

I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

My statement on the two year anniversary of October 7, 2023.

He hasn't signed the other bills yet, but he still has days to do so This headline is misleading for not mentioning that. The gender education veto is bad, but far from the most important trans rights bill on his desk. There's still time to contact Newsom for the rest! www.gov.ca.gov/contact/

what if something good happened instead

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

Sven and Olaf had their well-check at the vet today. They're both perfectly healthy baby boys, same as Ozzy. Sven is UBER pissed about it tho.

I think a conversation should be had about how admin and moderation seem to hate the community responsible for this websites success and instead of destroying the whole thing they could try to hand ownership to a user co-op and try to create their libertarian crypto utopia again elsewhere.

ANYWAYS I'm resuming the comic next Monday! I still don't know what my schedule will be with all my burnout procrastination issues, but I NEED a deadline to keep me motivated. 😤 You'll get the teaser post later this week. 👀

Look at this super cute comm I got from @messyzandrewbert.bsky.social !!! I had one of these cars when I was a little kid and it was my favorite thing in the world so super excited to have this :D I'll post their vgen in the replies I'd highly recommend working with them!

I'm not on social media because of the rich pieces of shit who own these apps. I'm on social media because it's the only way my epileptic ass can reach comic readers.

Silent Hill F is good 👍

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

I've already said as much but I am not going back to Twitter. There's nothing for me there- my work is never seen nor appreciated there. Ppl actually SEE and care abt my work here. Moreover, I'm not gonna support the Nazi bar and sit in that see of vitriol, no matter how curated my space may be.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have made a HUGE breakthrough towards a UNIVERSAL antiviral. By targeting sugar molecules found on the surface of many viruses that SHARE structural similarities, they identified FOUR compounds that successfully BLOCKED infections from SEVEN different viruses.

My comics hot take, or rather a piece of advice: Read your dialogue OUT LOUD when you're writing and editing it. it sounds silly, but it when you hear it in your ears, things you thought sounded good on paper can be made 10x better and cleaner, esp when you hear tone inflections and pauses

Me while I have been working full time, prepping for a convention all week and dealing with chronic health issues:

Think I'll make a new art starterpack soon. If you want to be in it, just reply! Let's do...anyone below 7k followers! And NSFW artists welcome. Just let me know if you make NSFW art in the replies and I'll do a separate starterpack for NSFW art. #starterpack #artistsupport

The more people that turn up and show Wizards that supporting trans people is popular, the better. Make it inescapably clear to them who their players are and what you care about.

Little guys that @semispri.bsky.social & I designed on stream yesterday! It was SO FUN!!! There are a few slots left! Once gone, they're gone! 💛 ko-fi.com/s/ded0f1c02d 💛

The Bluesky thing is so disappointing. Everyone genuinely had high hopes a year ago that this place was gonna last a good while before enshitification took hold and now... I like so many other people found new cool art and comics people that I never would've found on Twitter and it seems like-

Dead End: Paranormal Park (the show) and Deadendia (the comic) are precious pieces of work. I'll fistfight anyone spreading hate towards it and its creator.

I've been really slow to doing my digital inks lately and that's because I've just been so tired lately. I've said it before but the day job just drains all I have. I don't get creative burnout I just get PHYSICAL burnout where I can't focus and all I wanna do is nap.

I'm serious email your representatives and link this article RIGHT NOW tell them this shit sucks and is going to put everyone's ID/data at risk to hackers online. the proof is right here US- www.congress.gov/members/find... EU- www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/home CA- www.ourcommons.ca/members/en

oh its the thing everyone said was going to happen when this got brought in and it immediately happened

on a still and moonless night, the powers of darkness were brought together to give form to a nefarious entity from beyond!!! but they weren't really feeling it tonight, and your summoning circle was a tad small anyways, so they just made this thing instead. they hope that's cool with you

I don’t think ppl understand the whole “who cares if nobody likes it! make content for yourself” is extremely dismissive Bc we ARE making the content for ourselves but it feels /bad/ when people don’t engage or show interest. You can care about both at the same time

I want to use Percy (genderfluid) for Kinktober this year. He works at a brothel for a while. Any requests for species for partners? Anything goes 👀

i have faith that most of 40 million people can agree that a career transphobe who has a record of endangering the lives of marginalized people should not have a platform, and it was pretty cringe that your CEO, when asked directly about this, thought it would be cute to make a joke

As a frequent user of the ponds, it disgusts me that terfs are taking a beautiful place and pouring their hate into it. Please fill in this survey if you want to protect this space for all women and make trans women feel. PS the ducks think terfs suck. And the friendly fox. And the crows.

Never thought a whole bunch of white Brits would move me to tears...but here we are. In the end it comes down to a very simple good vs evil...nothing else matters

I left Twitter in search of a social media alternative that WASN'T run by an immature child I seem to have made a wrong turn.

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.
