Shinsou!

This also explains why some folks who have had issues with being refunded when I ask them to not use Apple Pay. It's all manufactured to be frustrating. So I repeat. NEVER. USE. APPLE. PAY. WHEN SUPPORTING CREATORS ON PATREON!!!!!

Prescription drug commercials greatly overestimate how much I want to hike or fly kites.

[shoves your face in some cake]

them: oh cool! so you're a writer? me: yep, I've been writing most of my life! them: wowwww, how many books have you written? Anything I've heard of?! me: it's illegal for you to ask me that

Taps the sign

I think if you get tapped to make an adaptation or an expansion or a sequel or etc. that you should AT LEAST have a respect for the original work, like you don't have to LIKE IT, but you owe it to the work and the fans to keep that vibe and themes even if you don't care for it

Do yall want some good news? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It’s fascinating to me that we all implicitly understand that violence, even murder, in art can be a symbolic way of exploring deeper themes but the second art has weird sex in it everyone assumes it is 100% literal

Good morning✌️🍀

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

Wait. Just found out that the CEO of Gumroad now works at DOGE? And that he saved up loads of money 'cause he fired everyone and replaced them with AI? I'm leaving the platform as soon as I get my money. Jesus christ. tedium.co/2025/04/06/g...

"oh I'm too old for stuffed animals” skill issue. sorry you can't appreciate little creatures made to hang out with you, I on the other hand am full of joyous whimsy and therefore vastly superior.

Happy ace day my lovelies 🖤🩶🤍💜

Happy ace awareness day 🤓🖤⚫️🤍💜

Happy #InternationalAsexualityDay to all my fellow aces and aspecs!. We exist, we rock, and on occasion, some of us are out here creating the best smut in the game 😎 Shout out to those who do, those who don't, and those who do whatever the hell they want because that's what life is about!

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

The trick here is the "AI" isn't actually looking at the code, the files, none of what makes the game work. It simply mimics what's displayed on screen, but at a certain point it just starts interpolating without context and ultimately descends into gibberish.

“i was born in the wrong era” not me. i love reading 100k words of yearning on ao3 and talking to gay people online.

If you are an NC resident and voted in November, please check if your name or the names of any family areone of the 60K votes being challenged. If so, confirm ASAP with your Board of Elections. You only have two weeks. The website to check linked in the reply. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

f you missed the Joker+Crow itabag campaign and would be interested in the extras, consider answering the survey linked so I can gauge how many of you there are and if a second preorder campaign should be something to consider 🙇 forms.gle/PC8U6fSYtfKC...

If you benefited from the severe thunderstorm & tornado watches & warnings yesterday, call your Congressional reps and tell them to keep the NWS funded & staffed. Last week, NWS were informed that up to 25% of their staff may be let go - this after they were already chronically 10% *under*staffed.

This is why we fight against censorship.

Also, please memorize this: "I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT." That, "am I free to leave?", and identifying yourself in stop-and-ID states are the only things you should ever say to police. Ever.

North Carolinians, you can check for your name and read from our Board of Elections here: www.ncsbe.gov/information-...

Gentle reminder to let that artist or writer know that you dug their work because, honestly, that shit can make their whole day brighter (especially now, when everything just feels like it's on fire all of the time).

With severe weather on the "table" today, make sure you know the difference between a watch and a warning! A watch means that the conditions are favorable for hazardous weather. A warning means that the hazardous weather is happening or imminent. To explain this in another way, think about tacos.

Here is the top comment on this article: “You are advising responsible honest people who have worked hard, saved all their lives… to scale down their retirement dreams because a one person has decided to destroy the US economy. Why not write an article about how to get rid of the real problem?”

Me: We don’t fully know the effects due to brand-specific logistics. Companies have manufacturing down to a science, and will cross borders multiple times to maximize cost effectiveness. My husband: We DO know because companies are just going to jack everything up 30% and blame tariffs. Me: …gdi

just know, behind every piece of writing and art publicly shared is a deep cavern of unfinished secret projects we talk about with 2-3 select people, and an even deeper, darker abyss containing only the most ancient of lore known only to us and the imaginary characters we've created

"am I even a real writer/artist?" are you writing? are you drawing? yeah? nice job then fucko, here's your membership card. just do your best. we're all doing our own thing, so just do yours. and shit right now is really stressful. you don't need to be on 100% of the time. but you're doing great.

oh the horror... oh the humanity!

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

just saw a post that was like “i wrote a fic for views because [character] was trending” and i cannot imagine living like this. i write because my dick has been possessed by a demon and the only way i can free it is by putting a guy through the pear wiggler

no, please, that's my emotional support punctuation I don't quite know how to use correctly all the time in my writing, but will be using all the time in my writing

Artists who tag your art so my mutes work, I am giving you a little smooch on the forehead or a little pat on your shoulder if you like that better, because you are everything to me

Just a morning message to my fellow creatives. Make what makes you happy. Even if no one pays attention at first. It exists. Someone who needs it, will find it. And they will love it, like you do. Just keep creating.

I don't need a shot of espresso, I need a shot of the chemicals my brian typically holds hostage but will release when a big deadline is inescapably close

me all day: when I have I want to write! vs. time to write ( •_•) _∩ハ ハ __ ( ง )ง  | (◡ω◡) | /︶\ /⌒⌒⌒∪⌒/|   /⌒⌒⌒⌒⌒// |⌒⌒⌒⌒⌒|

It’s Trans day Of Visibility and I just want to send all of you my love. Your existence is vital, you are seen, you are heard, and I’m glad you’re here. ❤️❤️

sometimes you go through a serious creative drought for any number of reasons. but just remember, the drought is driest just before the sudden window of "ASHFJKLDFGHKLSDFHGJKLSH" inspiration

I LOVE REGULATION. I LOVE THE PEACE OF MIND KNOWING THAT A RESTAURANT IS SAFE TO EAT AND A PRODUCT WONT KILL ME. I WANT MORE REGULATION. I DONT WANT CORPORATIONS TO BREATHE WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PERMISSION.

I need people to stop making the most romantic edits/amvs ever and then adding something like "they're like father and son 💜"

“AI made art accessible” is like saying burglary made me having your tv accessible
