Who wants to give me the cliff notes of Grievous' backstory?
17.02.2026 00:01 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0infographic: "whoa there, pardner!" a fake bluesky DM i sent myself as an example says: "hi can u please not repost your own art so much. it's literally murder and oppression and hate crime that sometimes i have to scroll past things i've already seen". a displeased cowboy emoji is giving this message a thumbs down. infographic info continues: 'round these parts we curate our own timelines! if you don't want to see a post again, open the meatball menu and click "hide post for me." now you don't have to see it and no one has to feel bad!" (the cowboy emoji is now giving you a thumbs up. off to the side, there's a screenshot of the aforementioned menu with the relevant buttons circled in blue.)
this hasn't personally happened to me, but i've seen other artists here talking about it intermittently. so here's an infographic about a handy feature i think a lot of people are overlooking! #artsky #artistsonbsky

Flavor Flav knows how to support women's sports: with his platform, with his time, and with his money. And you never see him trying to attack or limit anything about women's sports.

A very long--too long for alt text--chronological history of the Zero Wing/All Your Base Are Belong To Us meme. Entries near the bottom of the image--though not the end of the timeline--read as follows: November 14, 2000: JRR, one of the SA forum regulars, releases Invasion of the Gabber Robots, the Zero Wing remix. November 28, 2000: A report/poll on the US elections appears on Ars Techinca: All Your Votes Are Belong to Us!! December 16, 2000: Tribal War's thread begins. As this is one of the oldest remaining threads, they are often mistakenly given credit for starting the phenomeon. January 12, 2001: Part 4 of "A Winner Is You," Hubert's game quote-based storyline is posted. It passes completely beneath the pop culture radar. January 14, 2001: Solidsharkey.com puts up a history. It's not as complete as this one, and may have some inaccuracies (WAS the Genesis version of ZW ever a US release? I can only find the info/ROM for a European version), but it is the first attempt at documenting ZW history. Note that I didn't find out about this until 10 minutes ago. February 11, 2001: Eskimo Bob posts Episode 12: AD 2101 February 13, 2001: memepool.com posts about AYBABTU. They link to the Tribal War thread. Approx. February 15, 2001: Bad_CRC of Tribal War releases the now-infamous music video. There are some copyright issues (permission wasn't asked to use JRR's song), but it continues to spread like wildfire. February 16, 2001: Plastic reports the Flash video.
Happy 25 year anniversary to the Flash video for Invasion of the Gabber Robots, better known to the world as All Your Base Are Belong to Us. I know, Newgrounds will claim that they invented this because the Flash video was reposted there quickly, but that is a lie as it started several months prior:
