The Brooklyn Public Library has announced that any teenager in America is now eligible for a Brooklyn Public Library card.
Teens can sign out ebooks + audiobooks 
The move is designed to combat censorship, with some titles listed as "always available." www.bklynlibrary.org/media/press/...

This infuriates me, not only cause of how utterly needles these deaths are but most US Christians still support it and the ones who are causing this. How did that old song go, you will know we are Christians by our love? Or was it by our hate of poor brown children?

Eternal shame on everyone who put this mf’er in office. You could not create a more exact Biblical Antichrist.

@flashes.blue is there a way to disconnect flashes from your Bluesky account? I’d like to use the apps differently and follow/not follow different accounts, but as of now if I unfollow someone one app, it does so on both. If I can’t customize flashes then what’s the point of having a second app?

An exhibition dedicated to Masamune Shirow will open on April 12 at Setagaya Literature Museum (Japan). Featuring originals of Ghost in the Shell, Black Magic, Appleseed, Dominion, Orion... Big nostalgia. www.shirow-masamune-ex.jp

RFK Jr. Vows To Make Measles Deaths So Common They Won’t Be Upsetting Anymore

Inspired a bit by @mattloux.bsky.social & @abbydenson.bsky.social ’s nighttime visit posted on @mangasplaining (www.mangasplaining.com/show-notes-e...), we dropped by Fushimi Inari Taisha tonight. No cats, but it was mostly quiet and a little eerie

Been crunching pretty hard to finish my current comic project so I can then go on to the next one which has a hard deadline now. It’s probably time to buy the Silmarillion audiobook to help me focus…

1. Own your work. 2. Get an agent. 3. Find the biggest markets (ie. not the direct market.) 4. Seriously, own your work.

What's wrong babe, you don't like our new ai generated one piece art curtains ??

A quick resistance task: 1. Google Gulf of Mexico 2. “Gulf of America" is the top 3. Click on the three little dots to the right of it 4. Select "Send Feedback" 5. Click on "Gulf Of America" 6. Select "Inaccurate content" 7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is “Gulf of Mexico"

In order for New Yorkers to vote in the closed Democratic Mayoral Primary, they must be registered as Democrats (and not unaffiliated or otherwise) by TOMORROW, February 14th. You CAN do change or update online through the DMV link below with a valid ID: e-register.vote.nyc

Finally found a restaurant that call hero sandwiches Grinders which is what they’re supposed to be called in CT. Don’t bow to the NY peer pressure, western CT!

Today is Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Had he lived, today Abraham would be 216 years old and 95 feet tall.

QRP with something watery 🪸🐠

Remembering our last trip to Japan was during strawberry season 🤤

I love Nagoya, and part of why is cause nobody goes there :)

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

I guess 45 is the age I start injuring myself doing absolutely nothing… so frustrating :/

Gettin’ ready for that snowstorm 👍

Post a random game from your collection Saturday. Two childhood favorites I recently found in shockingly good box condition. Crystalis is Zelda-like but not as good. Battle of Olympus is so similar to Zelda 2 that for years I assumed they shared developers (not so) both great games 👍 #retrogames
