There's gotta be at least one other person who's both a #MaisiePeters AND #MagnusProtocol fan out there, right? Someone else who can enjoy the way I spent my morning? Please?
I love that every time I'm on a voice chat with some fandom friends, someone tells me they've read my fanfics for the first time and really liked them. 🥰

the enthusiasm for generative AI would not have been possible without prior decades of capitalist conditioning to view works of art as products, rather than acts of culture and shared human life
I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

Currently crying over Tiff's Treats discontinuing peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, so clearly I'm doing great.

Hilarious to get the "you don't have trans characters so you're obviously transphobic 😤" bot comment on AO3 on a story where one half of the ship in nonbinary and in a fandom where one of the main characters (who also appears in the fic) is canonically a trans woman. 😂 I don't fall for bots, sorry.

I finally started listening to #TheHarbingers by @gabrielurbina.com today and, uh... I finished all 6 episodes that are currently released before I left for work this evening. So, yeah, you should listen to it. It's good.

Putting money in Rowling's pocket is also why we ignore press releases from comics events that include Potter programming. It's funding her hate. I'd implore every creator/publisher/potential guest to consider this when approached by those cons. - Andy

Girlguiding says the move is in response to the Supreme Court ruling that said sex meant biological sex in equality law.

Spotify Wrapped always kinda ignores podcasts, so I did the math myself:

88,337 minutes of podcasts
39,080 minutes of music

This will surprise no one who knows me. #audiodramas for life.

The best thing about today was my neighbor knocking on my door after work and asking if I could take their dog out on a walk tomorrow while he and his wife are both stuck at long work days. I love their dog & she loves me & I love doing favors for my neighbors. Plus now I finally know their names!

My big brave thing of the day is washing a towel. I'm washing lots of towels today, but one of them is one that's been on my floor since I lost Crawford. I put it on the floor to help him when he started having issues walking on the wood floors. I literally cried before I even picked it up.

Sometimes you cope with a lack of sleep and a lack of free time by writing human/alien smut on your phone at work.

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Obsessed with the fact that I just got to the Shift Notes where Joe confirmed this was absolutely the reason for the name. Rare big brain moment for me.
Currently considering how Låfftrax has a laugh track. Which, you know, looks pretty similar. #MidnightBurger

Trying to write a fun little smutfic and then suddenly I'm 5,000 words in and one of the participants is still fully clothed. 😭This was supposed to take a couple days to write, not a couple weeks.

You can just tell him no! Practically everybody hates him!
an important message to elite society in general:

this is an unpopular, weak and failing lame duck president and you can just tell him no
can we appreciate just how badly Johnson and Trump played this Epstein vote? total failure of a pressure campaign, delayed for months to ensure it stays in the news and immediately swamps "the Dems caved" as soon as the shutdown ends, and now it passes 427-1

couldn't have gone worse if they tried

Tomorrow I may be taking Christmas photos of my best friend and his tortoise. Photos dependent on us finding a small Santa hat for the tortoise because I had a silly idea for a Christmas card. 🎅

NGL folks. Moving even just one of these originals would really make a difference for my husband & I with our continually piling up medical bills.🥲 Plz help spread the word, if you can. Even just re-sharing is powerful for small artists like me.🙏
If you've ever wanted to collect one of my originals, here's a great opportunity! I'm offering these pieces currently via the @changelingart.bsky.social's Deck the Halls auction with extremely fair starting bids.

Place your bids here by commenting on the images:

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times. Two emoluments clauses ban officials—unambiguously including the president—from accepting things of value, plus bribery is the only named impeachable offense besides treason.

Unprecedentedly corrupt.
