Hey folks, anyone bought a Lacie hard drive recently? I’m thinking of getting a new external hard drive and my current one is a Lacie I bought in 2017. It is still good, just almost out of room.

So are Lacie hard drives still long lasting? It would be great to have one that lasts 10+

For webcomics, please talk about them! Like, subscribe, tell other folks about the work you like <3
If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

"the entire second season is grounded by internal drama within a polycule of French theater queers in post war Paris being explained to a terminally catty Anthony Bourdain clone" sounds good here's millions of dollars get at it

My past experience is also why I’m always like “yall, publishers do actually pay some people real money, they use more resources on other creators - and that inequity is a large part of why marginalized creators are have a much harder time surviving, much less thriving, in this industry.

I've been thinking on this for a while, and instead of a holiday season sale, Bonedust Press will instead dedicate 10% of all direct sales to the San Diego Food Bank.

Times are tough and since I have to do the marketing song and dance anyway, I'd like to accomplish a little good with it.

Shop small for the holidays, support independent publishing, and do some good!

From now until Dec. 31, we will donate 10% of every single direct sale from our site to local food banks.

Treat yourself to our debut title, The Traitor & The Wretch, or gift it to a friend!

So rideshares having a harassment problem and needing to do this, is partly because they don't want real employees. It allows bad actors to make fake profiles and/or share accounts with other drivers which let's them think they can get away with abuse.

The woman only option is a bandaid.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRPd... @kelmcdonald.bsky.social linked me to this video and it's about how the reason why cycling in america is so fucked up is mostly because of ONE guy who basically just wanted to gatekeep biking from the normies.

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

I think a lot of webtoons have bad pacing when collected because what works for an infinite scroll read doesn't work on the page. And print editions are unwilling or unable to do the edits that would solve the pacing issues caused by the medium switch
Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?

Books with Pictures is the best comic shop I've ever been to! It deserves all our support!
Books with Pictures (@bkswpicspdx.bsky.social) in Portland, Oregon is a GREAT comic shop, and its owner in @omgkatiep.bsky.social is one of the best. The shop is going through a hard time right now, and if you want to help BwP out, they opened a GoFundMe to help do just that.

The beacons are lit! Tanya
@cypheroftyr.bsky.social calls for aid!

Tanya is one of the kindest, realest humans I've ever had the pleasure to meet. She's helped me countless times, and I've seen her others more times than I can count. If she's asking, the need is REAL. Please donate if you can
So I did the thing after some encouragement to update the goal. Not fussed if we don't hit it, but that cushion would make the next 3 -4 months much easier since job hunting is... demoralizing at best.

Hopefully no one sees this as greedy, or milking folks who want to help out. gofund.me/68950306a
