Very few people are psychologically, mentally, emotionally fit to push through a prolonged time of uncertainty & no guarantees. And this is what autocracies count on.

Me: Why am I always so tired? Reality: Here’s a list of prolonged traumas that are affecting you, or those you love, or your fellow human beings, and you feel unable to make any direct changes. Me: Nah, the problem must be me.

This is all excellent advice! I'd add: 1. The lower the humidity in your immediate vicinity, the more efficiently sweating will cool you. If you're not in an arid area/desert and you have a dehumidifier, running it will help a little.

Another addendum: Modern upholstery is a heat trap. Polyester and polyurethane foam ONLY trap heat. Vinyl is even worse. So here’s when you pull out the winter cotton quilts and blankets — cover your sticky furniture, make padded floor lounges. You’ll stay cooler. Avoid synthetics.

Are there any original Iron Chef fans among my friends on here? I need beta readers for my 25-page fanfic. My gf and metamour are currently reading it, but I could use some additional readers too. Let me know if anyone here has the time/inclination to read it over and tell me their thoughts.

Also any app that supposedly identifies wild edible mushrooms and plants. So many toxic flora are virtually indistinguishable from their non-toxic lookalikes, and only your eyes and other senses can tell the difference. AI can’t feel “oily leaves” or smell “minty.” Do not use AI anything, period.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

After working in Photoshop for 29 years & coloring over 20,000 comics pages in PS, I switched to Clip Studio Paint on June 22nd, 2024. Since then, I've colored 685 pages in CSP (attached) & I'm happy to report it's a superior app. Make the switch. Ditch Adobe. #comics #colors #ClipStudioPaint

I need every platform and program and THING to stop trying to make me use their dumb AI bullshit. No I don’t want AI to write things for me! I LIKE writing things! If AI wants to do something for me, it can come mop the floor or change the duvet cover. Until that time, AI CAN FUCK OFF!

So many people have @rileysdtr.bsky.social to thank for their lives today. She is the one who provided the tea which kept me from clotheslining them with a tow cable, though I am still considering the pit trap filled with wolverines.

So today is release day. I Think I'm in Love with an Alien is out in the world. It feels awkward to talk about this book with... gestures at everything but if I don't talk about it, you won't know about it. It's a love letter to fandom, to science fiction fantasy conventions, to cosplay.
