Did you read a book by a transfemme in a language other than English this year? Comment them on this post! The Foreign Language category for the TFR Awards only has two votes total and I need more crowdsourcing.

@dumb-industries.com I got my Manos the Hands of Fate day 2025 T-shirt and it looks amazing! But it feels like burlap. I have sensory issues, so I will just have to admire this shirt when I look through my closet. Bummer. But great design!

Same Girl, Different Pajamas: good ol' professional screentone JR146 carrots and rabbits.

Same Girl, Different Pajamas: Dora the Explorer edition

Same Girl, Different Pajamas are pixels this time.

Same Girl, New Pajamas: Today is some really obvious stones. Just from a landscaping I came across.

One of my favorite ways of making screentone is applying filters to photos over and over again until they're unrecognizable.

Well, count me in!

Same Girl, New Pajamas. Screentone can be anything, This is my ceiling.

I'm starting a new feature: Same Girl, New Pajamas as a way to explore screentones and brushes. The drawing is by a friend. Today's pajamas are made from a digital brush comprised of the mustache and beard from Duchamp's Mona Lisa alteration. I made the brush using Affinity Photo's brush tool.

@tmbg.bsky.social Denver says your new US tour is probably sour anyway while eating a whole tub of ice cream and crying.

Personally I would have gone with FSTOJDI to show my love for Kit Fisto, but to each their own.

If you see this, post a bird.

Everybody needs to lose their minds all at once about this ok. This man has a week left before being executed for being black

I can't believe the conservatives are struggling to come up with dirt when the fact his name isn't pronounced "waltz" is sitting right there.

At a bar where we're near the trivia DJ (not actively participating). Taking all my strength not to be an asshole and correct her standard English pronunciation of Richard (Strauss) to Ree-kard.

I saw people (like two adults holding signs and a number of bored children) holding signs saying "Abortion is murder" in a parking lot where I had a haircut today. They were gone by the time I left, but I was thinking "Denying people necessary medical procedures is murder" was the right response.

@namasenbei.bsky.social How is your Kombucha doing lately? Have you been to any good restaurants?

I love our local orchestra, but they have a tendency to start a little late. I think this can be traced back to lax leadership. Our Concert Master is constantly slipping on stage just barely in time to tune before the conductor comes out. I swear one day he'll catch her sneaking in.

Two dollars for a public domain ebook with no original content, perhaps save the admittedly cool cover, is NOT even remotely close to being anywhere near a 'deal', Amazon! This exact text has been free at Project Gutenberg for over 20 years now! Calling this a deal should be illegal.

I think I just found the next "Shakespeare authorship" conspiracy and I'm quite excited. Thank you, terrible AI, for bringing this to our attention!

Remember when Google had the motto Don't Be Evil? With their ai chatbot spam messages this morning they have not only dropped it, but completely reversed course.

Ugh. How can two nearly similar words like abjure and adjure have such different meanings? Who invented English anyway?

Our most awesome local chamber musicians would do his compositions occasionally. A true talent gone.

Obviously the genocide against Palestinian civilians and the terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians are the worst parts of this war, but as an American one of my deepest regrets is that our Government thinks supporting Netanyahu is supporting Israel and Jewish people.

Nothing scarier than the deadliest African animal for Halloween!
