I am certain that whenever someone posts about “gatekeeping art” or whatever, they’re talking about posting drawings online for clicks. They never mean arranging rocks in the back yard. They never mean whistling to yourself and finding a tune that makes you happy. They never mean napkin doodles.

Trump orders removal or changing of Native American signage at Little Bighorn national park in Montana.
That's the place where Custer got Siouxed.
Maybe soon Trump will also want the signs to say that Custer & 7th Cavalry won the battle that day. www.ktvq.com/news/local-n...

I don't know how to articulate how happy this makes me. I've literally hated every single redesign they've done of her post 2006. 😭
First look at the new Strawberry Shortcake redesign.
Multiple events have been announced, along with a new YouTube web series.

Ppl conflating aro and ace to be the same thing or that one always includes the other annoys me so much. It’s the insistence that their lived experience is universal and seeing something that contradicts that means it’s wrong or impossible.

Everything is awful, but I'm really encouraged and amazed by the amount of community organizing I've seen. There's so many people on our side, who share values and ideals, who put in the work. People look out for each other. We're seeing the worst of our society, but we're also seeing the best.

This is really not much less than some authors would get from someone buying their book on a discount from The Evil Bookshop. Never feel bad about getting that book from the library! We want you to do it! Most of use use/have used a library a lot! We still get paid!
Also, if you borrow an author's book from a library in the UK, that author gets more than 12 pence per loan in Public Lending Rights. Any author can earn up to £6,600 per year this way.
For context: I published my 15th book last year. The advance I received for it was considerably less than £6,600.

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."
