so it turns out that "the swamp" serves a lot of important purposes and draining it is actually pretty dangerous.. who knew

Legality matters no more. What matters is what we will do to stop it.

It also speaks to how helping yourself helps others. Not just "you cannot pour from an empty cup," but reframing as our necessary interdependence.

I've tuned in a few times but not chatted because I just needed to relax and watch. I had fun 😄 I have no changes to suggest, but I may not be a typical viewer. I definitely understand the frustration with lack of growth, lack of feedback etc with low viewership. 💜

My favorite slogan is "Eat or We Both Starve." It's a book I know nothing about, and a tagline for a fantastic crepes place in Wheeling, WV. To me it means that filling your own needs necessarily fills someone else's too. When one act can fit multiple needs it's a beautiful confluence.

Enjoyed the New Yorker interview with Tim Curry, a free-wheeling conversation in which there were several sensitive questions about his paralyzing stroke. But oh my goodness, why was there no follow-up at all to this staggering answer? www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Screenshot of text from the interview:

You’ve always been an incredibly physical performer: your strut during “Sweet Transvestite” in “Rocky Horror,” or the way you run around unfurling the mystery at the end of “Clue.” Do you still feel that in your body? Does that live somewhere in you still?

I think it does, but it’s angry. My mobility is angry to get out. But it’s not happened yet. I do a certain amount of physical therapy. I did a whole bunch of it at Cedars-Sinai, and I got very close, I think, to walking. That was tantalizing. For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw. And I have a visiting physical therapist now, but I can only really do exercises from my bed, which is pretty pathetic. It’s not going to get me walking, I don’t believe.

[I have underlined the sentence "For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw."]

If it's effective, don't abandon it, but experiment with others! I remember a very good artist telling me one time to make things you INTEND to throw away when you're in a rut. 😄

I'm curious first about what you feel your typical composition structure is. That would help me answer better! Feel free to DM

creativity is a human NEED and i will die on this hill

it doesn't mean you're obligated to create under these hellscape circumstances. I understand why people don't, and lose connection with that piece of the world. but I blame our capitalist overlords for taking that away from us

Bilbo Yaga @bilboyaga.bsky.social · 5d

Many things are being destroyed & the news of it is a psychological & political onslaught.

So it’s important that you create things.

It can be art, cookies, a community pantry, a garden, a mask bloc. It can be beautiful, practical, silly. Just create & share.

It’ll do your brain & the world good.

In Yoshi's Island, a cave background sparkles, but only when Yoshi moves. This is achieved in an inventive way by making many 1-pixel "pinholes" in the background through which a field of stars is visible. The parallax motion shows the stars intermittently, creating sparkles.

It’s a great day for @moderation.bsky.app to reconsider and unban Link. He is actually a well known figure in disability advocacy and Black In Astro circles. He’s not just some guy who posts.

I have to put cat videos on at least once a day or else he’ll eat my plants.

He needs to watch his ‘shows’.

All I want in life is to persuade everyone, when encountering politics & culture, to ask, "why are we talking about this?" I mean that very literally: anything you encounter on your screens reflects a choice. Someone covered that, talked about that, rather than the many other things out there. Why?

Honest to goodness, I feel like messages only get through when they align with the worldview of the normies. And even the normies can see through what is happening.

Thank you both so much <3

yep. they are using AI in the first place because they don't have any original thoughts or drive to truly create, so of course this is the case

It’s not too late for the Bluesky admins to say - yeah, ok, a permanent ban was an overreaction. Times are tough. Let’s try again. They could do it right now.
