"Woke" is an AAVE term with a specific function that was deliberately hijacked by right wingers to spoil that function, and far too many of us let them do it and even enabled it
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

HARD AGREE
pickup trucks for the average person should not have been allowed to advance past this. if you need anything bigger, you should have to provide some kind of documentation showing you have the license and need for special heavy machinery, otherwise you get the 1990 toyota hilux

I know a lot is going on, but I would really appreciate a share. I'm still waiting on a check and I'm wrapping up the rest of my small gigs this week. If you need any art and you like what I do, please consider contacting me. I'd like to think my budget is reasonable, and I put out some good art
Hey, I'm going to be honest, I've had some rotten luck these last couple months. About three different projects got cancelled, so, if you need covers, pages, posters, album art, and you like my style, please consider hiring me.

Final days for Witching Season and we are so close to our goal...

I have a story in here with @bailierosenlund.bsky.social 🌙 it's gay AND tragic, very off-brand for me.

Back Witching Season for our doomed yuri 💜 (& for all of the other incredible stories too)

Have we considered the possibility the Bond is just one guy making an off-hand comment and someone writing a whole article like it's a studio mandate?

I keep saying it but Lane is honestly awesome to work with, if your thinking about pulling the trigger on a new project maybe this is your sign to go for it

One word: FrankenBond
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Suddenly I'm wondering if America is so fucked right now because everytime Hollywood adapts an Alan Moore book he places a new curse on us

Honestly, I think now is the time to start prepping for a general strike, because I don't see anything else changing anything at this point

It's really frustrating having Sinema 2.0 as my dem senator (fetterman) bc he's been voting with Rs over the shutdown since day 1 so like, is there even any point in calling?

That's one of those legendary lines, you don't come back from that
What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

Reading this without context I 100% thought it was a conversation between 2 LLM chatbots
My favorite part of the conversation. (Put the whole thing on fb and added a bit more to the alt text here.) There was a lot more talk of testosterone and special pleading that the one guy's was okay without doing any cryosleep. Oy.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.
