That's pretty awesome that you're selling so much! Has this been the busiest con you've been to?

The only downside to .art domains is that keep increasing in price each year by quite a bit :( I had one that was $25, and before I knew it $70/yr

.ca domains I've only notice go up a couple of dollars over a decade. (I assume .com remains cheap too)

Your book covers look so pretty all together! (And individually of course!)

Also happy World Mental Health Day!

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

That feeling when you could be getting sick, but maybe not, it's hard to tell and you have to wait and see how you feel in the morning. If it's going to do its thing I'd rather we just get this over with, pick a side! I've got my expired cold medicine, I'm ready for you!

I miss forums! I ran a Final Fantasy themed forum back in the late 90s / early 2000s. I wouldn't qualify for your art forum, but I'd lurk 🫡

I've been staring at this transfixed for far too long.

(I like how your bird's feet are always m shaped. I can't way why exactly, I just think they're neat)

Hell yeah!! Good job! 😎

All of my years of leftovers, and we never used the gravy for poutine… why?! What was wrong with my family? 😭

Hurrah!!! One point of anxiety crossed off!

Also consider running on the side of the path, grass, dirt paths. Trail running is nicer on my body than pavement.

I really hope it goes better for you this time! It sucks so much when you want to do something but your body goes "haha.. no"

The thing that helped my runs the most, and it is kind of annoying, is warming up way more than you want to. Like you want to get out there, but even after doing a bunch of dynamic things inside... I'd brisk walk for 10 minutes before I even started my run.

You'll have to show us all your soup!! I've done it a few times using a Jaime Oliver recipe (Roast Tomato and Bread Soup). It was super easy, the oven did most of the work, also hand blender.

hahaha Picardigan! Gosh that's brilliant!

homemade roasted tomato soup is SO good. I love soup season. Also grilled cheese

I feel like I went back in time 20 years to Final Fantasy forum mods throwing tantrums and banning people. So dumb to anger the very people that makes their site worth anything.

100%!!! Also affordable data plans because that seems to be a requirement as well.

My town made public transit free, paid for (at least in part) from paid parking downtown. It's joyous! It encourages fewer cars on the road. Also... it works! Putting people first doesn't mean everything crumbles!

It’s so important to take time for the good things we enjoy and not let ourselves be suffocated and brought down my all of the negative garbage. So hell yeah comic talk!!! I’m intrigued and want to look up this art style!

That is actually pretty cold for inside! I was thinking similarly last night, but I’m going to try and go longer without turning it on. I like it cold when I’m sleeping but not so much when I’m just sitting there

Hahaha that face!! Benjamo is the best

Did you share any with him? 😋

It’s unfortunate that people have reacted negatively to having this pointed out. Myself I’d want to know! (I’m wrong about so many things). I’ve never wanted to cause anyone harm in any way, and sometimes just don’t know any better.

"Psychotic" is not a synonym of "vicious, malevolent, nasty, cruel, heinous, atrocious, despicable, fiendish, inhumane, uncontrolled," or any number of other words that are both more accurate and not ableist.

Keezy Young🌼 @keezyyoung.bsky.social · 6d

the term you are looking for here is not psychotic

Not a single Greta hater could do what she has done, face what she's faced, bear abuse and humiliation at the hands of the most psychotic and genocidal army. They haven't an ounce of her bravery and that's what drives them crazy. Free Greta, free Palestine🇵🇸
