no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace

Hey Bluesky I actually don't care to see the hand-wringing calls for politeness from centrists that I sure as shit don't follow, thanks.

This isn't like the average online petition btw, this is one of those things where if it gets enough signatures, the HOC absolutely must bring it to the floor for discussion. Incredibly important to get on this if you're Canadian.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

Oh my gosh, getting in touch with the BBB WORKED. PayPal is restoring my account and I should have access to my money again. If you are in the US or deal with the US PayPal and your account is randomly, without warning, and without explanation closed down, file a complaint with the BBB!

People are shouting "LOOK HE'S THE BEST WE CAN DO" about the Governor of California, meanwhile the Governor of Illinois is out here talking like John Wick while *also* standing up for trans people.

Once, Sesame Street was a lifeline for indie animators. It offered money and incredible freedom to create. This built an indie animation boom that powered MTV, Nickelodeon and much more. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-golden...

So the big thing, imo, is trying to use it to reinforce the themes your after in The game Arr you aiming for whimsy, action, drama etc then have vinnetes or moments happen during travel that emphasize this Most folks default to combat but this is a bandaid option (though combat can work in places)

if you havent made any calls, or shipped any letters or sent any emails yet, and you feel like its "too late": dont. its not too late. now is literally a perfect time to start joining in and contacting legislators and paypros in whatever way works best for you. its a marathon, not a race!

for those of you that have somehow made it this long without ever calling: you literally just have to list the bills. you don't have to give a reason. if you get a person, they won't ask you why. if you get a voicemail, just say your address at the beginning. it took me less than 5 minutes to call 3

🚨 IEA now says renewables will be the world’s #1 power source by 2026 (possibly as soon as 2025). Wind & solar already supply >90% of demand growth, coal’s decline is baked in. The tipping point is here—clean energy isn’t the future, it’s the present. ⚡🌞 #Renewables #EnergyTransition #BESS

Been doing lots of character outfit designs lately! Might do some illustrations next or maybe more designs! Who knows ✌️

"Dude. A.I. is inevitable. Get over it." 1. No it isn't. 2. Even if it were? I'd still say "Fuck A.I." and refuse to interact with it. I will lock myself off to modern media in a heartbeat if it becomes truly unsvoidable. I have YEARS of shit to catch up on. 3. Grow a fucking backbone.

If you see this, post a bad woman you love. This majestic art by @ryuuna.bsky.social

I also wish all the ills on JK Rowling - an extra heaping serving of ills for transphobes in general please and thanks

I cannot BELIEVE I’m not seeing this posted around. One-shot based on Sinners and southern gothic. Some really incredible players at the table. Daggerheart. Like. What?! youtu.be/mTXDdFEGeVA?...

I believe they call this "finding out" arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

This is not how corporations respond to an ineffective protest. This is how they respond to a protest that they would like to have go away. So don't let it go away. Keep it going. In fact, Streissand Effect this shit. Call attention to how much they want this to go away.

Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci! ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775. I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

What an incredible time to be in this hobby. What an embarrassment of riches we're getting. And what a shame if your reaction to this new golden age is to obsess over who's "winning" or "losing."

#SaveSpeech If youre struggling to figure out how best to maximize your impact in calls, i recommend watching at least the first 15 minutes of this video where Ana both uses a time wasting technique and then explains it But TLDR; you need to Troll at this point. Wasting time is all that matters

Here is wisdom. They proclaim they "win" no matter what you do, so if they "win" by getting blocked and not getting to talk to you any more, it's the same "win" as if they got to keep talking to you and making your day worse. There's no point in giving them a second more than needed.

Hell of a good thread of collected wisdom from a life clearly well-lived. Happy birthday, Quinn!

DuckDuckGo is my primary search engine for precisely this reason. Plus, while they have the same useless ai offerings as other search sites, they have one simple off toggle that’s easy to find and use

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free. freedomtobuy.games

Visa says they're still drowning today! Payment processors think that we're not organized enough to keep this up but it's we either prove them wrong or submit to global censorship so it's. not much of a contest. Keep calling all 4!!

we need to start a "one million moms" type grassroots phonecalling brigade, made of our best lliberal karens, to coordinate "nuke it from orbit" style phonecalling blitzes like, we can fabricate fake bullshit to call about too if we have to, to play the same game, I don't fuckin care anymore

It is so, so important to learn to understand the difference between A Gross Thing That Freaks Me Out, versus A Thing Which Causes Actual Harm In The World because as long as you can't navigate the difference, your disgust is a lever that can be used to manipulate you

btw did you know you can subscribe to PBS for only like $5/mo or a $60 one-time for a year donation, and get access to their Passport streaming service? They mail you a little live programming guide and everything, too. The 40-something seasons of NOVA alone are worth it.

The only thing to understand about the pronoun thing is that just because something is outside of your lived experience doesn’t mean it’s not real or the person telling you is mistaken or you are being inconvenienced

re: generative AI I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used. And now, you can use it, too.
