The decline of third spaces and hangouts, such as malls, video rental places, arcades & skate parks has been a direct result of the rise of convenience and has also been objectively bad for society as a whole. Its not that everyone HAS to socialize, but having no option to without bars is a failing.

The text on the description reads:  I sought love onceβ€” Only to find myself hollow. 

The image illustrates an angelic entity realizing how they are empty. 
Capable of giving love only to find out they themselves are incapable of receiving and being loved.

It's worth reiterating that independent creators are getting debanked for the same content

If you're finally ready to ditch Kindle Unlimited for a service that's cheaper and pays indie authors more, you should try Kobo Plus!

I got a list of some Fantasy and Scifi books included with a Kobo Plus subscription!

A graphic with a background is made up of a diagonal oriented 6-stripe rainbow. In the middle is a white square with a thin outline and text that reads "318 queer books coming out in October!". The 318 is in matching horizontal rainbow stripes and October is in orange text. Text between the number and month are all caps black font.

🌈 What's COMING OUT (pun intended) this October? Which books are you excited for? Which books are you adding to your TBR? Any other queer releases you know of? 🧡

It's also not lost on me that erotica writers and artists are being banklocked at every opportunity to "protect children" and "keep investors happy" but AI is TOTALLY okay to just waltz in and do it. Makes perfect sense /s

Maybe support REAL creators and not murderous theft machines.

I expect this to go about as well as its mental health services, which *checks headlines* is already going about as horrifically as can be expected. Safeguards have been circumvented to aid in kids killing themselves and people devoting AI psychosis. But sure! What could go wrong here??

Feeling the need to remind myself of this Ursula K LeGuin quote today:

"We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings."

an illustration by Spindle of the characters Asimov (on the right), a half-elf with white hair tied up in a bun, and wearing a blue dress (with yellow accents and a red stripe on the bottom), sitting and kissing Ottilie (on the left), a human with short brown hair tied up in a small bun, wearing a green cardigan (with orange circles print, and white trim), white underwear, and black thighhighs (appearing green due to the tones of the art). She's in front of Asi and leaning on her, kissing back. The kiss is tongue-style

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Stream in five minutes, and I even did audio tests beforehand so the mixing isn't total ass. Not that it will help much with the mic, but what can you do.

A Phan confirmation wasnt on my bingo card. My feelings are. Complex. I'm happy for them. It was kind of obvious. It's sad they didnt feel comfortable enough to say it before now. I think the parasocial fan base is a big reason why. Also? If they never had confirmed it? Still none of our business.
