This one is old but not old enough to be included in the Nerd Inferno omnibus. The saddest thing about it is that it isn't just for freelancers anymore. Good luck to us all.

Two things I’ve written recently: For @972mag.com: Is Israel trying to foment civil war in Lebanon? www.972mag.com/israel-leban... And for my newsletter: the lie I tell myself when covering Israel. Also: Free Bajor. www.hauntologies.net/p/the-lie-i-...

my writing process:

Pathetic that JB caved & wants to drain tax revenues for sports owned by a super-rich family As the S-T points out this gives "tax breaks to a franchise valued at nearly $9 billion while homeowners statewide struggle to keep up with their property tax bills." chicago.suntimes.com/bears-stadiu...

humena.org/kuwait-deten... Shes not insta famous so obviously didnt get as much attention and global campaigns but the kuwaiti human rights activist farea al saqqaf, a veritable legend in the field locally, was also arrested and let out today

cw discussion of suicidal ideation drawing my star trek OCs because its been forever and its also been That kind of indiscriminate amount of time where i'm sort of going back and forth

art is a beautiful thing bc i had a crush when i started this and now i dont god bless

havent gotten sick about them in a while its so great to play with my dolls again

finally finished this convo. suvius, as someone who can read people's emotions, is aware that one of the engineers doesn't like him and that they are also passively suicidal. instead of saying something generic, he offers an opportunity to get on the same level.

desire tugs on the heart strings of logic (WIP)

Tell you friends about the Internet Archive. I was absolutely shocked none of my friends even knew it existed beyond the waybackmachine, and they were dazzled at how many resources they provide. It's such a vital and important resource, especially in our time of erasure of facts and culture.

"this character can't be trans because the author wasn't explicitly trying to create a trans woman" neither were my parents, how'd that work out for them?

Going to go on a rant here for a second… This is the scariest point for me, which is the normalization of ICE activity and the desensitization to these abductions as they happen more sporadically and at lower profile. Last year was a mess, it created a spectacle, but now it’s just everyday.

Bumping my commissions with some fresh samples! I am trying to reduce debt incurred by medical bills. I offer $3 ko-fi sketches as well, or if you donate $50+ I will credit you as a sponsor of my next finished, original piece. Fill out the order form below and I will be in touch!

said the word corponormative to my roommate as a joke once but we've both started using it unironically bc it has a legitimate use in describing ways we've been conditioned to accept / elevate capitalism

We want it all New design collab with @harebrained.bsky.social

opens kink club that only plays 1970s progressive rock idc

having curly hair makes me feel like a plant sometimes. spritz spritz

the Norman polycule (that sanfran polycule that posted an application) posted a video of their youngest member, Zaid (22), reassuring every1 flatly that hes ok and theyre doing shadow puppets over his face???

oh wait ok so bsky is broken for real

i think ill have an aneurysm one day from the accumulated stress of seeing the way white supremacy and particularly christian imperialism bleeds through every crack of media. and it's not the in-your-face stuff either, its the far more insidious, subtle messaging that gives way to the empire

bsky was forbidden for a few seconds.. ok..

portfolio day makes me sad sometimes just bc it feels like my career as an artist can never transcend past lowlevel freelancer. i 5hink oh man maybe next time ill have some really good stuff to post and then i never do, in part out of depression or capitalism or its both working to strangle me
