The funniest thing about this abysmal WH movie is that Fennel and Robbie both thought they are. Making a new Titanic for modern generation.

This is so hilarious

But I feel immense second hand embarrassment on their part.

US strikes on Iran โ€˜outside international law,โ€™ says Macron Macron joins Spanish PM Pedro Sรกnchez in calling the legality of the strikes into question.

After four days of hesitating, the president of France has joined the prime minister of Spain in saying that the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ attack on Iran is a violation of international law.

But they are still the only 2 EU leaders to have done so. Will others join?

Art is vital at times like this.
Art is what helps people escape for a while-at least in their minds.
Artists, writers, musicians, comedians, do your thing!
You're awesome! ๐Ÿฅฐ

A graphic with a large yellow banner in the middle announcing "Live on Kickstarter! We've Always Been Here: A queer historical zine." The bottom text is in a rainbow gradient with little rainbows framing the box. Above this is a mockup of the book's cover alongside some page mockups, and the bottom half features three other illustration previews.

๐Ÿšจ It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.

Ugh. Yeah. Itโ€™s all good but thereโ€™s a tiny problem - Iโ€™ve got to eat sometimes. And I donโ€™t entirely enjoy sleeping under the bridge.

Jokes aside, thanks for people who hire me.
And HUGE thanks to patrons who support me allowing me to feel I have backup if I get sick or too tired.

An illustration of two masculine figures together, one sitting on the other's lap with a hand on the other's chin, their eyes locked together. They wear fancy period clothing like a powdered wig and corset, one specifically dressed in very gender-nonconforming attire. A magenta banner at the top says "We've Always Been Here: A queer historical zine" and a blue banner at the bottom says "launches in 24 hours!"

There's no such thing as ethical AI. All AI companies got their training data from theft.

With certain very loud Bluesky accounts with a particular agenda whipping people up to #BoycottChatGPT and use Claude by Anthropic - A timely reminder:
There are people making a lot of money from betting on this shitshow. No political Bsky account is doing this for 'good'. #FuckALLai

A digital illustration of two Peking opera performers on stage wearing intricately detailed outfits. They delicately touch hands, their expressions soft. At the top is a pink banner that says "We've Always Been Here: a queer historical zine" and at the bottom is a red banner that says "2 days until launch!"

Good morning, Bluesky. We've moved out of February and into March, and I'm hoping March is a much better month for all of us.

In our case I'm the one who brings all the new stuff and throws it at him for testing. So I'm sort of the "content scout" lol.

Artistocrats in ye olden times had wine and food tasters to avoid poison.
I'm not an aristocrat (though I'm a cheeky prince quite often), but I have my own "tv-show, game and book taster" and it's my husband.
I tell him "go watch the ep1 of The Knight of 7 kingdoms and tell me if I can watch it

I did it, my darlings!

Happy #HansryWeek and #PrideMonth
The subject for day 1 was "Flowers"
So flowers I did!
The poem is a quote of an anonymous medieval poet.

Am I bonkers to do #fanart of such complexity on my holiday?
Damn right, I am.
No regrets, though!
