my mom taught me there's two kinds of businesses: hot dog stands and art galleries

- hot dog stands protect territory and keep competition off their turf
- art galleries benefit from more adjacent art galleries, cluster together to amplify reach/support

youre an art gallery, not a hot dog stand

Like, even snake oil salesmen had to promise their customers a benefit. This snake oil will heal your ailments. It will benefit you. You get something out of buying my snake oil.

These fash tech dipshits can't even do that. It's just "if you buy my snake oil I get to have more money."

The Relentless Lark Volume One — Weekend Warrior Comics An urban vigilante goes on a genre-hopping tour of her hometown to hunt down the copycat impersonating her superhero father in the first volume of this superhero comic.

Who is The Lark? No one truly knows. Not even his own daughter.

But when the hero disappears, Jane is going to learn a lot more about her father than she bargained for as she dons his cape and colors.

This is a 100-page TPB collecting four issues with additional, new material.

I found her gofundme! She's already raised 41.5k of her 45k goal for gas, vehicle maintenance, phone/internet costs (for posting the videos), food and supply drives for the community, and emergency funds in case she gets into legal trouble:

It's Bandcamp Friday!!! This is the magical day when artists get *100 percent* of the profit from anything you purchase on Bandcamp. That's right, it all goes to the artists. It's a wonderful day to buy some music and I just spent (checks notes) a small fortune.

Here are some recommendations!

when these companies try to claim this is about what’s legal or not, they’re lying. none of the games that were removed from steam or itch broke the law. financial companies are making subjective decisions based on what might inconvenience them

If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:

Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”

The spokesmen of the far-right need to push an obsession with hating women yet obtaining one to keep their supporters lonely and preoccupied with anything that is not wealth inequality. The spokesmen of the left remain uninterested because the answer seems obvious. Don't be a fascist weirdo.

Deskilling is real.

This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service.

Don't outsource your brain to this shit. You'll regret it.

Saying that chatgpt can be used as a disability aid for ADHD is pretty much saying you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about, and don't particularly give a shit whether people get harmed.

A persons head but just the nose, eyes and hair peeks up from the bottom of the cover. Above and in her head is a semi-jumbled medley of her thoughts, which contain trumpets by her ears, pill bottles, overflowing laundry basket, final notice bills, a calendar, stacked dirty dishes, and speakers blaring music. It’s quite colorful, featuring red, pink, purple, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple moving from one side to the other in a coordinated way.
