Artist needs advice! RedBubble pays so little that I don't reach the annual minimum to actually get paid. I want to move my existing designs to another printable or licenseable place, because CFS = not dealing with physical inventory. I'm aiming at the sticker/mug/notebook type market. Help?

When a disabled person asks for help, please understand we’ve likely exhausted all options before asking.

We’ve tried everything before coming to you.

Believe us and offer the help requested (if you can)

Don’t force us to spin our wheels answering a bunch of “why don’t you just do…” questions

small LOL, yesterday I was surprised that my friends don't have constant YT ads with health misinformation about stuck poop, like it's some society-wide severe issue. A pal pointed out that I purchase (online) human powdered laxative for my elderly cat. Annoyance constant, but mystery solved.

Trump announces he's taking over the DC police department to rescue the city from "crime, bloodshed, and bedlam."

Violent crime in DC reached a 30 year low in 2024 and is down sharply again this year.

Not one news organization asked about it today

NOT ONE INCLUDING THE WOMEN 🙄🙄🙄

Are Americans aware that down here in Mexico we’ve been getting bombarded for months with ads of Kristi Noem telling us to our face that we’re out welcome in the US, and that these ads even found their way into our national TV broadcasts

Because I feel like I have seen nobody mention it

The International Criminal Court issues an arrest warrant for Putin The ICC has issued warrants for the Russian president and his children's rights commissioner for alleged war crimes involving accusations that Russia has forcibly taken Ukrainian children.

Trump and Putin are meeting on US soil because a country lawless enough not to arrest Trump is lawless enough not to arrest Putin.

Reply to me here, call the number through Rescue Me, or by PMing me here or on TikTok. If initial expenses are a problem but you can cover his regular food and annual vet, we'll figure something out together. He needs his person, and I can help with the initial stuff.

Please repost and share this thread. Together, we can save this sweet-hearted kitty from a hard outdoor life by getting him in from of The Right Person. We just need to reach one, but I need help spreading his lil face around the net to find that one.

Shots are in progress and he's already on flea preventative. He's currently transitioning to adult kibble, mainly by eating from the others' feeders. ;) Would love to play with and nap with other kitties and would probably do well with a patient dog. He has zero interest in going outside.

Deets in the listing, but also: I'm in mid-California. I will drive to any corner of California to hand off D'Art and some of his fave toys, treats, and his medical record to date. So if you're in Arizona, Nevada, or Oregon and willing to drive to the CA border, we can meet up to hand off!

► Domestic Cat - Newark, CA Rescue Me ID 25-08-07-00407

I did a hard thing today: I posted Van Engine Compartment Kitten (D'Art for D'Artagnan) on RescueMe post.rescueme.org/25-08-07-00407. He needs an indoor home, and our older cats insist it cannot be our home forever. Videos of D'Art are on my TikTok (see thread)

Fantastic news for artists: The lost functionality of Google Image Search as a reference image source has been recreated.

Who will treat the chronically ill patient? A circle of specialists passing you on to the next.

It's a closed loop.

Relatable.

I mean, there's a team of us. We take turns crashing, mostly.

New scientist headline critics of de extinction hit by mystery smear campaign

Like science? Then you better be interested when *someone* starts putting out hit pieces on scientists. This is beyond the pale ethically and honestly anyone who doesn’t want to slide to hell on a slick of ai generated content that benefits billionaire business, maybe now is the time to get angry.

Weakest 3 months of job growth since 2020.

Thanks for this. We actually spend just a huge amount of time, labor and mental health trying to not get physically harmed while doing banal life things.

The shingles shot isn't kidding around. That said, a friend's husband just ended up in the hospital, his shingles were so painful. So this is one of those forms of adulting where doing the known-unpleasant thing really is better than the uncertain-worse thing from not doing the adulting up front.

As someone who watched friends die from AIDS in the 80s and 90s, fuck this, for real.

Germany used to lead the world in science. The language of science was German—until the Nazis came to power and chased out, imprisoned, or killed all the non-Nazi scientists. Fascists break good things, and it is happening here. (2/2)

An illustration of Art Spiegelman, the author of MAUS, with an accompanying quote from him: "I've spent a lifetime trying not to think about Israel - deciding it has nothing more to do with me, a diasporist, than the rest of the World's Bad News on Parade. Israel is like some badly battered child with PTSD who has grown up to batter others."

This hit me.

I wish more disabled and/or neurodivergent people (not to mention the ableds) would understand that the explicit openly stated goal of tech companies re gAI is to replace every public/social service from healthcare to education and more with their tech.
And they’re using us to build consensus.

Ryan Walters' TV displayed "nude women" during a meeting. Now he's blaming the media. The Oklahoma schools chief who crusades against smut now faces an investigation into his own explicit screen time

Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma schools chief who wants bibles in the classroom and Christianity taught to kids, just got caught watching adult content.

On his work computer.

During a Board of Education meeting.

Read that again.

Good piece by @jamellebouie.net taking apart JD Vance's reprehensible immigration worldview on the substance. I'd add that JD seems to cast our admission of immigrants purely as an act of benevolence on our part, when of course that's not the story at all

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/23/o...

do you ever stare at the ceiling and think about how the worldwide scientific establishment did the impossible and created a COVID vaccine in under a year and the response of the general public has been to go on an unstoppable rampage to destroy science and scientists

Never let them break your spirit.
