can't be emphasised enough that no matter how empty Valve's defense of lootboxes sounds, the lawsuit is also a trojan horse to censor violence in games so it's not a good idea to side with it lol
Writing this down
indie creators are more responsible with NSFW material than corps are. paywalls arn't just for profit, it's to block minors from viewing bc you need to be 18 to have a CC. yet creators are literally barred from posting behind paywalls so it's posted freely, and that's being cited to make legislation
the same payment processors take your money for Netflix as they do for patreon, kofi, stripe, substar and gumroad -- just to name a few. wonder why corporations can show age gap monsterfucking content but individuals can't.
it's rhetorical we all know why. you should bitch about it to them.
anyone can watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Netflix right now. the show is aimed at a teen audience. it has gratuitous b-camp violence and minors fucking monsters. there's a whole season where Buffy and Spike just spend it railing each other softcore. can't do fanart of it on patreon or substar tho
I'm so tired of having to defend porn made by consenting adults for consenting adults when our government is run by literal child predators that are hurting people everyday

We need reparations for ICE victims.
Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.
This is false.
Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.
Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

Coming off that video/lawsuit of the selfdriving cybertruck careening into a barrier and almost sending itself off the freeway, I trust everything this guy says about automation!
The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)

Literature***
Big content warns for basically everything you can imagine, but it's a truly incredible piece of literate
I've read ten books since January and this one rocketed to the top of my faves list immediately. I feel like this
The entire thing is written in setting-accurate 1600s prose for 600 pages, such an incredible fucking flex on McCann's part. Books are amazing you can do anything in there
I haven't but I am writing that down on my to-read list expeditiously
Thank you to @oliveoilcorp.bsky.social for the recommendation I am going to be insane about this forever
Devoured this book in a week and a half and stunlocked myself. Maria McCann really wrote her debut novel about 17th century toxic yaoi tragedy in 2001 at age 45 and she fucking freaked it harder than anyone had ever freaked it before
the library is so fucking cool you guys
"Each person plucked from their day-to-day existence left a whole life behind. There are shoes by the front door and an empty bed. There’s a car in the driveway and a job undone. There are pets that need feeding, bills that keep arriving and leases with months left to pay."
All those who labor alongside me thus remark upon my strength of character and countenance alight with good humour. Prithee, that you find me worthy of gainful employ! I have been reading a book that takes place in 17th century England, can you tell
It's a little galling how much LESS I work at this job and I get paid 3X as much regardless!!!!! And my taxes are taken out of my paychecks, no surprises later!
My day job is seasonal and I only have a month left of work, and with it biweekly paychecks. If you need an artist, a funny writer, a character designer, a receptionist, a court jester, etc. please keep your pal Kendra in mind! Kendrawcandraw.com
cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

SHUT YOUR DOOMER ASS UP & REGARD LIFE AS PRECIOUS ENOUGH TO DEFEND, SUNSHINE!!!!!
I'm working minimum wage for just under fulltime hours at my day job and my monthly income has tripled lmao
Now THAT's a broad movement!
