If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Immigrants aren’t taking your homes, they’re building them.
Immigrants aren’t driving food costs up, they’re working to put it on our tables.
Immigrants aren’t making healthcare unaffordable, they go without it.
Billionaires are driving the affordability crisis. Not immigrants.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

If you don't want to buy books from amazon the ethical solutions are: 1) buy the books elsewhere 2) get them from a library 3) get them from an e-book library 4) read your friends copy. Authors get paid per book sold. Stolen book = stolen labor.

And libraries fuckin exist! I’m a fast reader and I’m not wealthy; 90% of my reading is via interlibrary loan. Anyone can read anything they want for free, y’all. Library network not have the book? You can request that they purchase it!
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.
It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

we're talking about how many times i have watched this loop, just like.... KB is AMAZEBALLS and this is SUPER GOOD please feast your eyes
Doing sidequests at this point
PNGTuberemix (program made by Mudkipworld on itch) gives you the option to add a normalmap
So naturally I had to try painting my own normalmap
Lot to learn, but the potential and the result make me SO giddy-

The point is that working and supporting yourself with a career will be next to impossible for a woman and getting married is your only chance at security lol

Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.
