As much as I've moved away from trying to map out or create "realistic" worlds (I've done the entire ground-up super detailed thing), never again), I do have to say that how geography, climate, weather, etc. works is a good knowledge to have.

I've said this before but just because some artists are able to draw BIPOC characters sometimes does not mean that they are "safe" for us to be around.
Discernment is good to have, and I don't think I'll ever let that go.
The keyword here is "sometimes".

I'm fucking HEATED. If we're going to survive and get out of this disaster, we white people need to uplift AND protect Black and brown leaders, with our bodies and lives.

Do we really have to go through some mandatory period where we all pretend that Homan is ANY better than Bovino? The man’s a scumbag, literally the architect of the family separation policy that abducted 5 year old Liam Ramos from his community in MN and put him in a concentration camp in TX.

On this day in 1945, the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau exposed the scale of Nazi crimes to the world and became a symbol of the horrors of the Holocaust, the resilience of its survivors, and the guilt of its enablers.

Firing a few key faces at the top while maintaining the the fundamental system is one of the most common appeasement tactics in history.
Don't settle for Bovino. Don't settle for Noem. Don't settle for Miller.
ICE must be abolished. That is the bare minimum.

Thinking about that brief moment in the early pandemic when the government actually reached out to help us, no strings attached, AND how quickly they yanked it all away when they realized that we might get used to being cared for
Do not get it twisted. The REAL change we are seeing right now, and which we need to sustain, is the revealing of how much we have the power to care & provide for each other in ways the state has continually abdicated its supposed responsibility to do in order to consolidate power.

alt text is important for accessibility and my plea for people who don't personally need it - aside from it being the right thing to do - is, well, you'd actually benefit from it more than you think
how many times have you seen someone quote something with a character you don't recognize? alt text!

Folks I know it takes a little extra time and there's a lot going on, but please try to use alt text. It's hard if you're otg but otherwise just do it.

Pillowfort is small and scrappy! It may not have all the modern features you're used to in a SM site, but it's not owned by anyone who literally goes to the White House to have dinner with Trump, and sickeningly in this day and age that is becoming a rarity.

TikTok is under right wing billionaire control now. Plan your exit strategy.
This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.
Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.
Well, here’s a link:
