I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

The message must be "No bailouts for billionaires." AI is not too big to fail. And should it fail, the richest men in the world should be held accountable and take responsibility for their failures.

openai’s new ghibli “generator” is explicitly an intentional attempt at humiliation of a prominent objector

openai is culturally fascist as well as functionally fascist

it’s not an accident

Hey

So this is capitalism trying to take a foothold in our community.

They see a market, and they want a piece.

If they get one, they'll want more, they'll start trying to show up at cons to sell us garbage

They'll insert plants into our community (which I bet are already here now) --->

Between this and the Spirit Halloween masks, it's amusing but also the nightmare of furry going mainstream. 💀

Happy #ComingOutDay …!

I grew up in the socially repressive 80s; the only “gays” were British rock stars or perverts. I didn’t come out to myself until I was almost 30, and to my family a few years later. I still regret years of my lost youth.

My dream is for kids to not go thru that anymore. ✊🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

So “antifa” is really “inflata” and is a bunch of people protesting in blow up costumes.

Tweet from Meidas_Charise Lee: “THIS IS THE COOLEST WAR ZONE EVER! Portland’s strategy… maybe if we act weird enough they’ll leave!”
Attached is a photo of people in colorful inflatable costumes dancing or moving playfully at night.

I am quite frankly desperate to make ends meet this month. We are $900 short on rent alone despite everything, and could really use any help we can get. I'm taking autumn YCH commissions and accepting any other help I can get to make sure the check clear in just a few days here.

Fascist governments require citizens to demonstrate cognitive dissonance as proof of loyalty.

Also, we've always been at war with Eurasia and allied with Eastasia. What do you mean it was the reverse last week brother? A little time in Room 101 should sort out your confusion.

I haven't have a commission or shop sale in 2.5 months! And my Ko-fi goal hasn't gone above 5% in over 6 months. My birthday is next week and I'd love to breathe above water, even for the tiniest moment 🤏🎂

I have new items in the shop and several slots open for commissions:
