All these fuckers are doing is creating a generation that will remember how you didn’t just abandon them, you intentionally tried to snuff them out.

Protect trans youth. Now and always.

(Also I love the implication of white people telling people whose families were here before it was the US to leave but that’s a rant I’ve not got in me right now, happy holidays)

I'd like the country I live in to not be evil but we can't even acknowledge the historic evils done half the fucking time and every 4-8 years we swing back and forth politically between actual fascism and fascism-lite with pride flags

Not exactly prime conditions for curing imperialism

I love it when you say "I think this country is fundamentally evil" and white right wingers shout "THEN LEAVE" as if that's like, even remotely an option lmfao??

Not even saying this as a person who works in immigration law; moving is expensive! moving COUNTRIES is worse!! VISAS are a nightmare!!!

With AI brainrot permeating in seemingly every tech company executive suite, I've been thinking a lot about how @procreate.com exists as a model for companies who don't want to AI trend chase.

(For when the bubble bursts and Adobe Fresco starts adding dogs to images without anyone asking it to)
Creativity is made, not generated — Procreate®
We are not adding generative AI to our apps. Here's why.

Tried to coalesce thoughts about the impact of Bandcamp Friday over these last 5 years in the face of industry changes, payment processor crackdown, corporate platform buyouts and the shrinking landscape of unfucked social media

If anything artists supporting each other is more important than ever
Thoughts on the Final Bandcamp Friday of 2025
It's been five years; what have we learned? (Plus some photos and album recs)

This is Sloth, everyone. He’s a master of disguise and espionage
Soooooo @curiousquail.com is using a vacuum cleaner downstairs and this guy thinks that when the vacuum cleaner is on he can’t be seen (and therefore harmed) by said vacuum cleaner if he stands in this window.

He’s right. You can’t see him. He is safe AND invisible.

That is the reality of life with cats. Their home. Their clothes. Their bags or papers or books or sofas. We are just borrowing it all.

COLD WEATHER IS COMING, which currently means pictures of cats beginning to form piles to stay warm, and soon will mean my favorite part of posting during the cold — PICTURES OF CATS ON RADIATORS.

As long as I'm drawing them every day, that's what counts - even if that means I end up posting three at a time.

Getting big Lucy football vibes from “we’ll end the shutdown because the republicans are giving us a vote on healthcare later”

This country’s military spending alone will never not be an embarrassment - period, but when contrasted with the sick, homeless and hunger rates?

The fuck we doing here

I should have waited a few weeks so this blog post could have also included “runs ads for ICE recruitment” as reasons to get the fuck out of this ecosystem.
Every month spotify tells us how many listeners we had; this number should, in theory, be higher than their threshold to not pay and yet we've made $0 revenue in 2024 from streams due to being "ineligible"

Feels good to finally say goodbye to having our music 'available' there

Adam and team have outdone themselves, holy shit.

Several mini games, a haunted house puzzle escape room, a theatre that screens public domain (in Canada anyway) films - all for free unless you pay the $2 for hats (which you should)

Do yourself a favor and go carve a goddamn pumpkin
It's that time of year... 🍂
🎃 The Ghost Town Pumpkin Festival is BACK for 2025! 🎃

This year we can support up to 800 players at once in this seasonal pumpkin carving MMO!

This year's update comes with new areas and new secrets to find.

Hope you don't mind if I re-use the trailer from last year! 😅

I have just learned about “twin towers the warrior cat” and I’m so sorry but this is the most online thing I’ve ever seen and I can’t help but fucking laugh
