15 years ago, a show about magical cartoon pastel horses debuted and it's one of the reasons I got into Digital Art.
Happy anniversary. ✌🏾

Yes absolutely! I have zero respect for anyone who does AI generated art. It’s absolutely infuriating seeing anyone post it.

I'm a fan of nuanced discussion but at this point I need to indulge in some black and white thinking and be clear that if you entertain AI generated art in any form I have no respect for you

disappointing to see every big account on this website line up to stoke rage and fear and doom into everyone's hearts based on what is already been explained to be misleading.

as @threnody.bsky.social said, you will have plenty of other opportunities for despair and to criticize Newsom!

Hi, I'm a trans Californian who reported on the CA bills. This headline is misleading at best. You haven't noted that he has until the 12th to sign the other bills, leaving that out is irresponsible and fearmongers.

People can and should still pressure him on those bills.

mady castigan✨ 🏳️‍⚧️ @madycast.com · 5d

He hasn't signed the other bills yet, but he still has days to do so
This headline is misleading for not mentioning that.

The gender education veto is bad, but far from the most important trans rights bill on his desk.

There's still time to contact Newsom for the rest!

You can just say that the city of Portland is not burning to the ground, Axios. It's a simple, incontrovertible fact.

www.axios.com/2025/10/06/t...

Excerpt from an Axios story:

Trump told reporters earlier on Sunday that troop deployments were needed because "Portland is burning to the ground," a claim local officials reject.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Tweet from the VP:
Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been
overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most.
Yet she oozes with contempt.
My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much
happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Shipping companies are charging extras on top of the duties & pocketing it. They're taking advantage of the situation with the tariffs. They're hurting small businesses and people that support those businesses. They're taking advantage also of having less competition due to the Canada Post strike.

It's crazy to me how many western comic publishers are STILL willfully ignoring the gold that is YA comics/tween comics/webtoons / Basically emotionally driven stories.

I wish ppl would stop labelling that stuff as too "girly" to sell well.

There's a reason manga continues to be best seller.

Please watch “Screecher’s Reach” from #StarWarsVisions. It’s basically a Sith ghost story. It’s my favorite of Volume 2. I’m going to start my spooky season with it. It’s the same Irish studio that animated Wolfwalkers.

Tombstone Tyfighter @jazzytyfighter.bsky.social · Nov 11

My favorite episode from season 2. Sith Mother looked so elegant yet so creepy. #StarWarsVisions #DarkSideSquareSeries
