I'm actually surprised how eerily accurate Chobits turned out to be. I think it holds up in regards to the "quiet" stories happening in the background--how there's an epidemic of people leaving community for AI companionship. And yet doesn't disregard our responsibility for potentially creating life

I open blender, but I hope the spirit still counts 🐀

So I often do freelance work for Viacom doing concept poses for style guides or merch and the like. I got permission to share some what I did from 2021-2023

I'm happy to help find your hospital's policy if you don't mind sharing it. They like to make it hard to find, but it's usually found within financial aid pages of their website!

Apologies if you already know this, but just in case it helps--are you aware that most hospitals (which can include buildings not directly connected to said hospital) have to offer debt forgiveness based on your income? It can be as high as 100%!

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

thank you so much for sharing this, it takes a lot of heart to share such emotionally tender parts of ourselves 🫂 ❤️ and I'm very glad you're out of that toxic environment now!

it's SO easy to forget this when we live in a society that's conditioned us to be on the defensive constantly

even the most well-meaning actions can cause undue pain if u slack even a little--I learned this the hard way many years ago

it's important we remember that kindness takes vigilance

"why use a good thing if it might be bad one day" idk man why eat that delicious cake if ur just gonna poop it out

so tired of edgy children being preemptively hostile towards good business practices. we need to support honest efforts and not just roll over belly up at fascism, c'mon now

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK!

Those sure are some nice words to say. Got any plans of action to back that up and dismantle capitalism before March rolls around? Or is this another "live laugh love" situation

Like yes, please, continue to advocate for a better tomorrow. But in the meantime, we need a space to socialize that isn't part of some fascist framework.

Then don't. No one's forcing you.

I'm just saying this is the way things are currently, and you can't *not* give things a try just because software is often ephemeral.

That's a bit like saying "why live if I'm just gonna die?". It's about doing the best with what you're given.

Every product is going to eventually become bad under capitalism. It's an inevitability.

All we can do is support stuff while it's good--then when it's bought by big corpo and shove inhumane practices on us, move to the next good thing at that time

Every billionaire in the Epstein files could drop dead tomorrow and the world would not only be fine, it would actually improve. The quality of our media would improve. Our environment. Our food. Our health care. Our technology.

hi guys I know I haven't been very active lately, and I don't talk about where I'm from often, but the government made some really scary announcements today so I thought I'd share to let everyone know what's happening. here are some posts from twt for context

and there it basically is. This is one of the reasons they are trying to force putting your IDs on the internet.

A digital illustration of a cartoon character kicking a blue pig while holding up a sign. Above the sign reads "Remember", and within it reads: "Do not sign up to join a protest. Just show up!". A speech bubble leading to the character contains the words: "That's how all your info gets put on a list!!".

stop being silly in front of me

Back up your chats, flood discord with support tickets, harass them on social media, make sure friends have your other socials, look up alternatives.

Cancel your Nitro.

Most importantly, don't despair.

We've moved before, we can move again. Show Discord they're expendable.

WE own THEM.

Oh, I'm not saying to jump ship now. Definitely wait until Discord makes it unusable--just prepare for the worst. Back up your chats, harass Discord, keep in touch with your friends and have emergency plans.

We've got a month. We can do this 💪

It isn't simple, but it's been done. We've gone from IRC, to Yahoo, AIM, and MSN--to Skype, then to Discord.

It's not easy, but it has to happen because Discord will be *unusable* unless you hand over your identity.

And that's not something anyone should do under any circumstances.

motherfucker I never forget what you did.
block block block. show him he's unwelcomed.

Blue image with white text reading "KEEP CALM JUST REPORT & BLOCK" with a white bluesky butterfly at the top. Spoof of the "KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" poster.

Lot of bigots showing up. Remember, don't interact. Just report and block block block.

Man, I know we should be able to reclaim the color, but any sight of red on a person's head does not instill me with confidence. If I caught a glimpse of this in a crowd, I'd assume it's MAGA :(

Friendly suggestion: report her on every platform possible, THEN block her.

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal opinion article titled “A Guaranteed Income Won’t Stop People From Wanting to Work,” by Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo. A subheading says evidence from programs around the world suggests basic income does not make recipients lazier. Below the headline is a photo of several women sitting outdoors at a table working.

"Not only don't people work less when they are guaranteed an income, they might actually put in more effort at work. And the fact that they have more money to spend leads to the creation of more jobs."
