Anyone (with wizard money) can buy talented studios and both increase the quality of life for the artists and pay and everything. Anyone can buy say ufotable and get out art.

They can keep doing art. I will just also demand borger

Buy a couple of anime studios and make their first projects under me not big prestige things but all the season 2s of wonderful trash that I haven't gotten. This might also inadvertently keep @mothersbasement.bsky.social busy for the rest of his life.

Gimme the money wizard, need more monmusume.

Its the green doors they really freak out about because there's more opportunities for trick or treat bags. Purple boss doors are not getting cleared solo so they tend not to complain on those.

On Lt Columbo Day never let us forget the episode where Columbo explains to a fitness guru how Mrs Columbo is thick, that he likes her thick, and how he will do anything within his power to keep her thick

I am just patiently and politely waiting for Adonis to get a throne photo much like your ice one.
Obviously not ice, the poor paws.

Want me to set up a zoom sometime? I am likely a pisspoor teacher though. I knit slowly and well... giant hands.

Chiaogoo needles are wonderful and stainless steel. And interchangable. You know for your sharpened ones...

Expertly painted model of Lady Malys, a Dark Eldar or Druhkari character, from Warhammer 40k. Her armor is black with blue highlighting. Her hair goes from black to white and she is carrying a very deady looking fan.
I'm a Necron player though so there's not enough death metal robots firing disintegration beams.

Can I interest you in some Lady Malys?

Small (to the photographer, he has large hands) orange pumpkin held in a hand in front of a brown cabinet. There is a bit of green stem on top of the pumpkin still.

The same sturdy media apparatus that so assiduously pores through court documents β€” or uncovers spending gaps or analyses executive orders β€” is not well positioned to tackle a movement entirely predicated on bad faith gestures designed to shock and confuse β€” not least one whose roots are in labyrinthine internet subcultures that modern, professional journalists will have avoided their entire lives. And so, buffering at the sight of the world’s richest man delivering a fascist salute to the cameras of the world, they froze on the spot. Within hours, the sensible and serious moderates everywhere from the BBC to the New York Times caveated their coverage with quote marks or qualifiers; β€œwhat looked like”, β€œwhat some are calling”, β€œwhat many interpreted as”.

It is a deliberate nudge and wink to the far-right ideas you actively hold, bathed in a self-defensive layer of irony from which you can always wriggle, on the grounds that it was just a hilarious joke. β€œI’m an edgelord, not a Nazi,” you continue to tell yourself even as your every viewpoint calcifies toward the politics of Genghis Khan.

This kidding/not kidding tactic forms the entire story of the last two decades of angry nerds on the internet. We have seen it play out everywhere sad men congregate to complain about their unhappy lives and get told that someone else β€” someone foreign, different, or weird β€” is to blame. None of it is mysterious. None of it is innocent. None of it is new.

I wrote this in January, about the issues we face when responsibility for covering the irony-poisoned and extremely-online trolls of the far right, falls to journalists who can't rotate a PDF.

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.
