this is what it's like, yeah.

Gooood morning Bluesky!

In case you missed it (Friday and Saturday are the cool parts of the weekend, we get it) we launched our Kickstarter!

If you want webdomains that end in .meow to exist and you want to have one yourself, consider:

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist): the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much. you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Literally the only thing stopping me from fully switching over

Almost October in NE and this temperature just feels so wrong... why am I wearing short sleeves still

Oh that's SO pretty

I need Democratic online types to understand that because of this, Newsom is dead to me. Dead. I'd sooner vote for an actual corpse. There is no hope, none, that he'll win me over, *because he has established he is a bad person*. There's no coming back from this. Take my advice and move the fuck on.

Congratulations!! This is a super exciting opportunity

congratulations!

It's soooo cute I really like the cast of characters

That's so real though the Draenei unlock something in the brain

Doing my part in cracking eggs! (Introducing people to Linux and also estrogen)

what the FUCK Kaban! "trans-inclusive radfems" is a huge red flag lmao www.tumblr.com/gremlingirls... like come on N/A as an intersex person, ive always viewed sexual violence through the lense of biological sex rather than gender identity and expression, and I'm going to try to choose my words very carefully while explaining this Keep reading #bunsqueak #transmisogyny #transandrophobia

what the FUCK Kaban! "trans-inclusive radfems" is a huge red flag lmao www.tumblr.com/gremlingirls... like come on N/A And queers with penises need to understand why uterus-owners are weary, uncomfortable, and afraid of once uterus-only spaces being encroached upon. It's not transmisogyny- it is the fear that anyone with a penis, regardless of gender, can assault them and get them pregnant, which is a much worse fate than being assaulted and not getting pregnant. if you are with it, you would understand this fear and give uterus-owners who have experienced sexual assault (which let's be so real, is most of them) a little grace. transandrophobia is so so so fucking real in this way and I'm tired of people disregarding this. #bunsqueak #transmisogyny #transandrophobia

like come on

The dream

This is not a joke. Consider this.

Its 150 gigs for images and all.

That's literally less than one AAA game.

it’s very weird how people talk about “male” and “female” socialization as if these are moral failures or virtues when they are in fact violence that children are subjected to

This is a great idea--citing headlines from mainstream outlets (Guardian, CBC radio) will put the fear of god in payment processors. Links

Oh my God

Some more details:

We originally planned to launch this preview last week on itchio. That plan has been kiboshed (obviously), so we're sharing this preview using our websites and newsletters. But that also means our reach and visibility have been impacted—so if you're excited, please share this!!!

Mimidoshima How the Religious Right Censor Morally Objectionable Content to Target Queer and Adult Media

i've written an article on how the group that went after itchio/steam's payment processors used the most morally objectionable content they could find to target queer and adult media and how they are definitely part of the religious right: mimidoshima.neocities.org/main/posts/2...

It’s time for our own collective shout. Who are you calling?

Remember: Stress you’re a repeat caller on this issue and that you heard about this controversy on the news. With Visa, ask for a supervisor once you hit a dead end. Calls should always last longer than 30 seconds

A lot of weekends spent rotting lately because work is so physically and emotionally draining, but I'm finally back to tackling the to-do list

So rude...

Remember, pornographers have always been on our side. Brave, ready to fight for our rights. Smut is our friend.

I FEEL THE NEED TO TAP THE JOHN WATERS SIGN REALLY HARD LATELY.

get angry and sign this if you can

Something I think very important is that even if you're not a creator of NSFW art (as I am not), you still have to stand with the sex workers and NSFW creators because they'll come for you too eventually.
