This is said post about suggestions to boost mood. Idk who wrote it but it’s got some good points.

things have really turned around for me ever since i became isolated and weird

study

I'm hard at work on another fantasy piece, but in the meantime I've put this work back up on my shop. Enjoy! "The Guardian of Fimbulwinter" artificerind.threadless.com/designs/the-...

If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

I'm constantly in awe of what voice actors are able to accomplish- both as a player and in my professional life. Why anyone would want to cut them out of the dev process is utterly beyond me. AI cannot ever replace what human VAs are capable of, and it's not even close.

Hard to think of anything in media that regularly brings me as much pure joy anymore as the headline in The New York Times' Trilobites section.

Hi ! I'm Rine, a french queer artist and I create paper flowers 💐

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Norges Beste Gamer is showing that gamers come in all shape, sized and accessibility needs 🦾 And playing with a different controller doesn't make you any less of a gamer, but if you want to be the BEST, you got to master them all! Thank you so much for agreeing to this!

I just played Episodes 1-4 in one sitting because I simply couldn't put it down This game is absolutely incredible in every way and I'm so keen to keep exploring 🖤

Food is a right, not a privilege. We know many members of our reading community, including our bookselling partners, will be impacted ❤️ Here's how to help, and where to find help. ⁠

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Best kept (not) secret... You can commission me for a pose if you need something in particular and can't find it in my free galleries! Comms start at $15, and yeah, you can totally send me your drawings so I know what you want! #Pose #PoseRef

You know when Terry Pratchett said 'It doesn't stop being magic just because you know how it works'? Yeah, he meant this.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Oops, fell down a Cult of the Lamb hole and now my weekend has vanished I'd forgotten how good this game was, and the DLCs are a great addition :)

Just read a review for a project that I worked on that was so lovely it made me tear up, so that's an excellent way to start the weekend :)

For my fellow french speakers, this is my whole mood 🤣🤣🤣 (And the origin of the picture I posted above)

FUCK SOCIAL MEDIA. MARRY BOOKS. KILL AI.

Cerberus Bit of #hades2 fanart I managed to do whilst in hospital! 💚

There is something incredibly relaxing and satisfying about making fresh soup and bread. I always enjoy the process :) I love this time of year, especially when it comes to the kind of cooking I tend to do 🍂

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on. Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights. Block, and move on. This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

BY THE WAY If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2. There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security. Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation." TURN IT OFF.

"The EHRC’s exclusionary interim guidance has had a devastating impact on trans people’s lives" “Now the guidance has been withdrawn, so should the exclusionary policies that organisations rashly implemented in its aftermath. If not, they could find themselves in hot water.”

while it may not seem like it to someone scrolling by with a cursory look, what i am creating is not ‘ironic’ nor a ‘get rich quick scheme’ and it is certainly not AI GENERATED. it is a genuine expression of my heart and my beliefs about sexuality and art and love and freedom and curiosity and joy

This is a wake up call.⚠️ If we continue to pile pressure on our planet's land and oceans, they won't be able to keep up with increasing emissions. 🏭 We must urgently cut emissions AND protect nature: our greatest ally in tackling the #ClimateCrisis. 🌍

The veneration of Books As Objects misses the point entirely. If you're reading a book, turn the corners down, break the spine, spill soup on it. It's your book, go nuts. A pristine, unread book is a tragedy in a way that a beloved, much-read book that looks like the dog's been at it could never be.

This news is a tragedy for nature, and for all the people that rely on coral reefs. But this report should also be a reminder of how much MORE we stand to lose if we don't act now. 🌳🌊🌍 We cannot afford to let the #ClimateCrisis escalate further.

That we continue to persist at all is a testament to our faith in one another.

You can always keep fucking with your gender.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

feels like yet again time to mention that the *videogames* industry (that's a creative industry, which people do creative degrees in) brings in more than twice the amount to the British economy as the fishing and steel industries *combined*

In Discworld, cities thrive because they welcome dwarfs, trolls, vampires, and humans alike. Ankh-Morpork works because everyone belongs. Funny how fiction can seem more humane than policy sometimes.

Your monthly reminder: Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

Rare good news :)

The state goons are powerless before the awesome might of someone in an inflatable frog costume, and you seriously expect me to believe the situation is hopeless?
