Literally the only way out. Even IF the horrors stop - no one will ever trust this country again unless we, at the very LEAST, make it clear that fascism will be punished.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

One of my TTRPG rolemodels + the game that has been on my to-play list since it came out = go back this!

Share Absurdia with that friend that is still listening to WTNV, the two that like Gravity Falls and The Twilight Zone, and that one that is totally normal about Alice in Wonderland!

At 25k I (and other really cool folks!) get to write for the game!

I made a bunch of masc friendly stuff for this launch, and a lot of it went, but some remains for the dudes amongst us who like to rock the goth. Rings, pendants, pins, necks. This snowflake obsidian I soldered and designed, and is adjustable fit. $52.

Breeedo has agonized over whether or not to share for so long.
I believe Breeedo.
I know what happened to me & Candace
And I believe the other people who have confided issues with Noir.

Noir's lack of accountability and patterns of DARVO + career sabotage with Black women and queers must stop.

I fucking hate this so much. I hate this so fucking much, but I can't continue to stay silent anymore while my integrity is continuing to be misconstrued and people keep getting hurt. This statement details my experiences while living with Noir Enigma (@/thenoirenigma) when I was homeless.

My Experience w/ Noir Enigma

01/20/2025 I’m writing about my experience with thenoirenigma, or Noir Enigma. His partner, AJ Fox (pahnita), will be included in this statement, but I want to make clear that I don’t harbor anything ...

Ridiculous.

Either they reissue the check and it goes international overnight UPS/FedEx, or they wire it to you NOW. It costs them about $10 to put a stop payment on the check already mailed, which is the least they could do for mailing something during a postal strike.

You as well! Sorry the room didn't work out, but you gotta trust your gut.

We are still abroad and have 2 cats, so we have a makelaar and it's still going to be a slog.

Mothership banning you for life from their third party license if they catch you sneaking AI in your Mothership publication. Much appreciated.

And telling people to not report projects they suspect of using AI and to find a better use of their time if they want to be helpful. Also thankful.

I’m a better writer than JKR could ever dream to be. I’m so powerful I’ve made people weep over the death of a mosquito. Put my latest on the stack of books by trans authors you could buy from and tangibly support right now.

That point when you realize 15 years of therapy have only just illuminated a way you thought you had grown, but it was just projecting insecurity in a differentway and you undercovered it, tonyour chagrin.

Toooootally not me. Nope.

@knightmarestudio.bsky.social You buried your use of generative AI storytelling and NFTs in your roadmap. This has the potential to turn off many gamers who are anti-genAI and anti-NFT after they have signed up for your beta.

Please reconsider using these things, or be more upfront about it.

A reminder to artists for October:

Image shows a message from Stub the Magic Goblin: "For those curious: the guy who runs and owns inktober has a stipulation that anything you post for inktober he automatically owns the full rights to."
Below the post is a post by John Cullon, with the caption "An important PSA from Batman" referring to the image posted, a drawing of Batman tearing a disk with "InkTober" written on it, and a speech bubble stating "This is the weapon of the ENEMY we do not NEED it. We will not USE it."

What is the first thing they try to ban? Books. Art. Don't silence us by getting lost in the noise. Fight censorship by supporting artists it affects. Fight this purist culture by uplifting and sharing work by those it seeks to silence. Do that more than endlessly yelling into the void.

Also, if you needed *any* proof that the claims about acetaminophen causing autism are crap, look no further than The Netherlands, where everyone downs paracetamol like candy, often at the direction of doctors.

Every single person in this country would be autistic if those claims were true.
