you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

A TV Character from their day:

ICE arrests Afghan man with brain cancer living in Lowell, despite work authorization LOWELL — When Ihsanullah Garay came to the U.S. from Afghanistan in spring 2021, he brought with him dreams of obtaining his doctorate in finance. Now, amid treatment for brain cancer, Garay has be…

This is why we will peacefully come together on Saturday, October 18 for our #NoKings Rally, to show support for our friends, neighbors, Greater-Lowell community, and the country we so proudly love.

MONDAY.
SPITE AS FUEL.

"The fights for trans rights and Palestinians are over and we lost" is something I'm seeing over and over from cis white progressives. And I'm seeing variations of this popping up about racial justice, marriage equality, and disability rights too.

Sorry, but fuck that.

I want to make it very clear when I advocate for asexual rep I am in no way calling for censorship, homophobia, transphobia, queer erasure, purity culture, or hatred of sex. I believe in sex education, marriage equality, bodily autonomy, and other human rights—and asexuality is part of that.

A donut on a white plate with blue and grey floral designs and an iced latte in a glass with a black straw, both on a bamboo countertop

The donut was not worth the mental hype but oh well

A vendor brought us apple cider donuts and I'm RAVENOUS to bring one home and have it with a latte tonight

Imma write in all caps, ladies love all caps

The Hawaiian These Boots Are Made for Walkin' is my favorite but it's been like scrubbed from the internet

Gaia still exists, the economy's inflation is ridiculous but we could all go back!

Client sent my old work a "new logo" for an event and we realized it was AI generated after we noticed the NAME OF THE EVENT was spelled wrong. But if we printed shirts with that error they'd be pissed. So we had to fix the shitty AI art UGHHH

Drawing if a tired puppy with the caption; "This too shall pass but like wtf"

Do not put your name on a website to register for a rally in this political climate. What the fuck's wrong with y'all. Are there any people of color that work at this org who might knock some sense into your peach colored heads.

I tend to forget this site exists but also I enjoy your list days

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

the President, who is not running for election, still sends out fundraising emails on the daily. this guy does ads saying "we've reached the max we can spend, don't give us more money." remarkable stuff that I think resonates with people who yearn for change and justice

Lol

People are allowed to have an opinion on the things you say on a public post, saying they're offended is just trying to be dismissive. You can still have bad takes while being ASD.

So you also think people with auditory processing issues, the deaf, anxious people, etc who maybe struggle with tense situations shouldn't drive? Just say you hate autistic people, yo

Oh boy, sure do love disclosing medical records to the police in hopes of not being discriminated against! Along with recent political BS making it unsafe in some situations to even pursue a diagnosis... No.

I've been having a "hornets in my wall that get into my bedroom" issue for two months now and those are just yellow jackets so NO THANKS

*sick bassline*

That being said, the one ReedPop employee I know (from enforcing at shows) is absolutely anti-AI. AI content is also banned on the PAX discords and actively removed if posted

At PAX I have absolutely seen AI art at booths. The acrylic light up poster booth is almost entirely AI slop, and at East this year a booth for a Kickstarter game would tell you their art was all AI generated (but only if you asked). Being in the TOS sadly doesn't always prevent everything.

Excited to see the "light up poster" booth and games with generative AI art at PAX fuck off

When a new vendor for work emails the office offering to buy everyone lunch next week, thanking us for the work. And my first thought is "But can he bring me a phone stand like he gave coworker."

I imagine the recent MB board issues are fueling S&S to try and APPEAR more cost effective to lure people over, but they still suck and their prices are still higher

Me, peepin' your game shelf o-o
