Part of the reason my mom made us do lifeguard training is because when my brother stepped off the edge into the deep end, he didn't make a sound. Luckily I saw him fall, but we very nearly lived in a timeline where I was an only child. Know the signs of drowning, and keep your eyes on your kid.

Some of you may be familiar with Dreams on a Pillow, an in-development pseudo-stealth game about the Nakba made by Palestinian developers. They're crowdfunding the final budget to get through the game's release, and I'm chipping in with my own fundraising challenge: help me raise $5k for the game!

The coolest Trader Joe's employee complimented my cheese choices for my craft day this weekend, and I will be riding that high for a minute.

I feel like we could make a case for the idea that words have use but not meaning is the Ur-Discourse: at its core, I agree with the initial thread as I interpreted it, but I've also seen some people interpreting (or misinterpreting) it wildly differently.

The next James Bond should be a corpse that gets Weekend At Bernie's-ed around by Dame Judy Dench.

We have officially moved from "sometimes the curtains are just blue 🙄" to "what if I could just remove the curtains altogether? 🤔", and I fear we may stupider as a collective because of it.

The trope of The Secretive Librarian is so funny to me b/c every librarian I've known is at risk of vibrating through the walls from the sheer force of their desire to help you find things. And if what you're looking for intersects with their favorite topic(s)? You will never hear a louder whisper.

I can't believe this thread is how I found out we're getting a star fox remake.

There are only two kinds of vibe I want to have these days: Eldritch Oilslick Velvet and Iridescent Snakeskin Velvet.

Everyone has at least one unskippable cutscene within them, and I am on a quest to collect them all.

Choosing what I could only describe as a vaguely smug looking turkey for the image is an immaculate choice, 15/10.

You're telling me a vibe coded this website?

...I think I have a new dream job.

Today in our fallout ttrpg game I performed the ultimate management move: trading a pizza party for a super mutant death squad.

and last night the audience screamed "we love you!" for so long she was in tears

The Save Our Thoughtpunks game jam is live and kicking! Join us here: itch.io/jam/save-our... to support our wonderful @thoughtpunks.com and check the quote post below to watch @gothhoblin.me 's fundraiser stream this weekend! (if you're also streaming for Rev this weekend, drop a link xx)

And now I post this with no context

On this day many eons ago, I burst fully formed from a Hot Topic dressing room. I would do one of those "one like = one piece of advice" posts, but most of my advice these days boil down to "don't be a dick" and "get your gallbladder checked if you have middle back pain".

Shh, don't tell Austin, but since it's my birthday, I made you a secret sale bundle featuring my two favorite Biscuit Wolf products for 50% off for today ONLY. Think of it as my reverse birthday gift to you ;) - B.

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means? ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

The desperate campaign to push AI down our throats is just what Nestlé did with baby formula, or Monsanto with patended seeds. Manufactured Intermediation—inserting a corporate tollbooth into a process that used to be self-sustaining, using a low initial barrier to entry to destroy the alternative.

If I learned anything this last year its that once you lose the fear of being a buzzkill, shitty people will exit your social sphere with haste. Also, I think it's weird as hell that some people are more mad about "buzzkills" than people who get a buzz of being a dick.

Anxiety is so weird because an email can send me into a spiral but being inside an MRI machine, something I was repeatedly warned about re:anxiety, was one of the most relaxing times of my life. I almost fell asleep multiple times. My body craves the sci-fi tube. Put me back in the sci-fi tube.

Not to put on my sewist shoes this early, but I hate that 100% silk is basically just a marketing term with no real meaning now. I saw fabric listed online today as "100% silk burnout velvet" which, afaik, is impossible—The 100% silk is obviously just a term for markup and I'm losing my mind. (1/7)

I missed this from @phineas.bsky.social when it originally came out but it sure feels relevant at the moment. Also, you can buy this as a print from the artist here: www.inprnt.com/gallery/phin...

The TTRPGs for Trans Rights charity bundle on itchio supports two incredible queer orgs in Idaho! There are over $500 TTRPGs for a donation of $5+ 🏳️‍⚧️ itch.io/b/3525/ttrpg...

I'm not typically an "eye for an eye" type of person, but I do think that if you use AI other people should get to steal from you. You used the Machine Built On Stolen Goods? Give me your fucking bedframe and your microwave plate, you slophumper.

I love the mute button because it has the same vibe as putting a pet in air jail Like, nah you little gremlin, no traction for you here until you prove you can behave.

I need us to develop a term for "sounds great on paper, but actually would be very bad" (or for someone to tell me of an existing term). In other news, I may have been identified as potential Management Material at work and just the thought of it has made every bone in my body hurt.

A prank you didn't think through the repercussions of? For April Fools Day?

this would be really cool if anyone wanted to do this for TDoV. I am housed now but haven't managed to get a job yet

I'm celebrating my trans day of visibility by getting x-rays done. Do you know how hard it is to see my bones otherwise?

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

TTRPGs for Trans Rights Idaho is live! Get over 500 games for as little as $5 (or more, if you're able)! All proceeds benefit @tccidaho.bsky.social & @transaffirminc.bsky.social 🏳️‍⚧️ itch.io/b/3525/ttrpg...

Hungry for change?

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it

If I find out you used AI for anything, but esp. for a placeholder image, I will unhinge my jaw & vomit black bile all over you. You want to know what we use at Biscuit Wolf? THE PRAIRIE DOG OF HOLDING. If we need something specific, I'll draw stick figures. Stop being a fucking loser.

I feel like many "harry potter replacement" list fail because either they're dismissive and cynical or don't get the innate appeal. But Witch Hat Atelier is always at the top of my list. Genuinely an empathetic and wondrous fantasy that has won just about every international comics award possible

"DnD is a gateway drug" carries with it the less-than-subtle implication that there are other TTRPGs that are harder, more addictive, and less accessible.

We've been tossing around the idea of the occasional Twitch stream lately, and today is gonna be the day! Austin is a big fan of The Finals, and they just dropped a fantasy themed season. He'll be live in 20 minutes if all goes according to plan!

You aren't doing Death of The Author by engaging with HP. Death of the Author is about who gets to decide the meaning of a text. It's not a hallpass to give money and clout to whatever you want. Stop engaging with it or admit that you see your comfort as more important than trans peoples' safety.

Children today aren't learning that topiary animals are a threat and they will come to life to kill you if you Shine too bright. It's honestly a safety issue at this point.

YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE ART. YOU HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN HOW TO MAKE ART. YOU HAVE BEEN COLLAGING AND SKETCHING AND CREATING YOUR WHOLE LIFE. YOU ARE NOT "UNABLE" TO MAKE ART, YOU ARE AFRAID YOUR ART WILL BE BAD. BUT GUESS WHAT??? BAD ART IS STILL ART. DON'T BE A FUCKING COWARD. MAKE ART.

My favorite thing to do is to post on the BW socials before Austin is awake. It's my version of leaving him a half dead bird at the foot of his bed. (Also I cannot stress enough that I had these ready to go in my phone)

The reason Chappell Roan trends all the time with a new “controversy” is because her allegedly being “mean” validates the preconceived notions people have about lesbians being aggressive.
