Disabled people are not expendable.
The elderly are not expendable.
Children are not expendable.
Worth should never be tied to economic productivity.
If we protected the most vulnerable in society, everyone would be better off.

Fourth space #chorf! Plasma gunner this time. All of it #3dprinting from free STLs (check ALT). Had some issues with right arm, managed to salvage it somewhat. Also went for non-glow plasma, for some reason.

Agreed.
Too many people don't bother to look what lies beneath the name.
To learn what it is, is to gain understanding.
But to gain understanding, you must therefore give up the want to claim that "everyone has a little ADHD".
Understanding goes a long way.
The want to understand is what is lacking.

The name "ADHD" doesn't do the condition justice at all.
It's not just about attention and/or hyperactivity... It is so, so much more.
From RSD, to addictions, and other dopamine-seeking behaviours...
The "attention" bit is the tip of a very, very deep iceberg.

Imagine if people expended the same time, energy, and money going after the real problems in society…
Instead they’re spending it all going after the most vulnerable, playing right into the hands of those harming us all.

The world is filled with people who would benefit from therapy, but the stigma around therapy is still strong.
Seeking therapy isn't a sign of weakness.
It's a sign of willingness to seek help. Of willingness to reach out and ask for someone to be there with you through the good and the bad.

I think if ppl *voluntarily* went to therapy, the world would be a better place.
Religion tried to fill that role, meaning, morals, community, but w/o scientific grounding it’s easily warped by bias and control. 🤔 It becomes more of a sword than a shield. (Repost for typos) 🙃

Consent matters.
Why is this so hard to understand?
Women & children are not property. Men should not be allowed to do w/e they want with them PERIOD.
Male entitlement needs to be called out, shamed, and punished.
Undressing them (and worse) with ai needs to be called out, shamed, and punished.

I'm willing to bet they only apologised and lifted the suspension on her account, because the news got involved.

Trying to stay positive in 2026 is challenging when you look at the state of the world and what certain leaders are already doing.

Alt: a man with short grey hair, in a suit is standing in front of a refrigerator, tapping his closed fists together in a nervous show as he speaks.
The white text "Things seem to be going downhill fast" appears at the bottom of the gif, with the word "downhill" turning yellow.

The only time I ever got annoyed with a knot was when I was right at the end of a project.
But that was only I challenged myself to finish before reaching the knot, which you can imagine how well that went 😂🤷♀️

Knots in yarn are a bummer when you knit or crochet, but I promise there’s a good reason for them

Making some headway before I head back to work. Mostly small stuff like metalics, seals and dry brushing on the base.

Played a practice game of #bloodbowl today to escape our houses - my Wood Elves vs Mike's orcs. Mike was playing his first BB2025 game and I was taking my Barton Bowl roster. We played out a 1-1 draw but I was down to 2 elves and a tree by the end - those new orcs are brutal!
