Alright all - I'm stepping away for this evening. I'll be back in later tonight to see if there's any more updates. Stay safe, if you're trans, stay with us, we are not giving up. And most of all... these EOs are not law, they are not passed by congress, do NOT comply.

Masks coming all the way off 🎉

we will not forget the genocide in Gaza and we will not forgive gofund.me/c53cf071

More old artwork. I’m a huge #Avatarthelastairbender fan and the episode with the Painted Lady is one of my favorites. I painted this several years ago and it’s still one of my favorites. #atla #avatar #katara #paintedlady #fantasy #art #artist #artwork

Look...even if Reactivate DID come out... ...the leaks a point to absolute dogshit. Microtransactions galore, either with battle passes and lootboxes, or crafting mechanics that take forever and speed up with payments, depending on the build. Both predatory. Both shit.

I write this with a heavy heart, knowing that words alone cannot fully convey the pain we are experiencing here in Gaza. Every day is a struggle to survive. The violence, the lack of food, medicine, and basic necessities — it feels like an unending nightmare. Our homes destroyed gofund.me/a625d5ba

I get madder at Democrats every time I think of them because my mentions are full of citizens who have been convinced that Democrats are powerless. “What are they supposed to do?!” I’m asked, and my response is to point ar Brazil, at South Korea, at places where they act aggressively. Why not here?

Cowards.

"By almost every metric, the harm to civilians from the first month of the Israeli campaign in Gaza is incomparable with any 21st century air campaign. It is by far the most intense, destructive, and fatal conflict for civilians that Airwars has ever documented." gaza-patterns-harm.airwars.org

"Now what have you two young-ins brought me out here for-" "Hello again, old Dukie." "P-Palmerston?? It's been so long!" "Merry Christmas, Granpuff!" #ThomasAndFriends #TTTE #Trainz

“Christmas Engines” is one of my favourite watches this time of year. It covers so much ground and tells four completely unique stories. So much charm in the writing, narration, and direction. youtu.be/0m-a3WMDsW8?...

Been debating writing more “Shorts” in order to bring in some new characters (which will be needed before bigger stories happen). How does everyone feel about this? I don’t want the new characters to feel rushed, but I feel they lend themselves to shorter tales.

* this trend seemed to briefly make a resurgence while we located from the other platform, meaning i am late. . . * but i'd like to ramble, so for each like i'll share a headcanon fact for "SUDRAGH FLORES AUREI"/"SODOR'S GOLDEN FLOWERS". . . for as long as i have headcanons to share =)

Nearly everything wrong with this country tracks back to our original sin

alito comparing being trans to schizophrenia is a slap in the face to both trans people AND people with severe mental illness. not because of the comparison (in either direction), but because they're fundamentally completely different things outside of BOTH DESERVING ACCESS TO PROPER MEDICAL CARE

my not-unprofessional opinion is this trans youth care ban would not be before the Supreme Court at all if not for Alliance Defending Freedom (aka the people who brought you Dobbs) and would not be treated as a "tough" issue for "even liberals" if not for the New York Times

I'm sure LittleEnginePr1 wouldn't mind if I post this to the site... S7-style Big City Engine was made by him by the way, commissioned by yours truly.

I'm making a series! It's call "The Ertls Of Sodor!" It's coming out on Jan 3rd! I've gone insane!! You can watch the trailer now!: www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5aK...

I was gonna wait until he was done but I'm way too excited with how this is turning out. Here's my 16mm live-steam 'Stanley'! Still needs a '2' on the cab side, lamp irons and vacuum pipes, but he's so close now - I can't wait to fire him up soon.

if you were at the recent Bad Influence Film Fest, you may have noticed a fair few of my customs on the wooden table... including, my WR custom of Adams Radial Lady / Tasha!

I’ve always wanted to do something like this.

Let’s get this vibe going over here

Why do you have to put asterisks in a word while posting on the Free Speech platform

Eh, why not, might help me with storytelling and such. (Just be wary, my AU is still fairly WIP, so if something does change, I'll quote with the new information)

it’s about to get very, very hard to be transgender in the united states. likely harder than it’s been in american history. do not let them scare you into backing down. do not give into transphobes framing. stand up to them however you can. it shouldn’t be this way but we have to fight

Just chillin

* everyone talks about "tale of the brave" and how percy and james are written in it but not enough people talk about how great thomas is. * goes from being incredibly focused on his goal at hand and being rational, until his friend is in danger, where he then desperately abandons all rationality

Hey Gang, I have a Bluesky now

Howdy everyone, thought it was time I jumped on board the bandwagon. So with that in mind, welcome to my Bluesky Page! 💙

It needs saying: fuck transphobes. Protect trans kids. 🏳️‍⚧️

A lot of people responsible for poor decisions are on a press tour right now because if they didn’t, people would rightfully be questioning THEIR leadership and they know it. It’s weak even by normal left-punching standards. Zero evidence more Liz Cheney would have won this. The opposite, actually.

This is such a funny headline.

Before the Bad Influence Premiere, I’ll be showing a 4 minute clip of “Enterprising Engines.” The animators (including @mintyindustrial.bsky.social!) went HARD for this. And it’s not just me! Other creators will be sharing some new stuff too. It’ll be a great night. We hope to see you there!
