I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

I can't wait to see all of my mutuals that play Fortnite regularly to not touch the game for the entirety of the season in solidarity of all of their trans homies! It's so nice knowing so many people that aren't just allies when it's convenient for them! 🙂💖

Hint. Fucking. Hint.

(In other words, Fortnite is adding a transphobic authors work into Fortnite)

With the CDC sharing vaccine misinformation on their website, it's important to follow credible health resources.

@who.int, @ameracadpeds.bsky.social, @aafp.org, & @acog.org all share trusted information backed by medical literature, esp re: vaccines.

Alt-CDC is NOT a resource.

their plainly stated goal is to starve forty million people until they get what they want, which is to rip health care away from millions more

that this is too monstrous for most news organizations to tell the truth about does not change the facts
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Sometimes the bad things are the only thing you see in life. Remember this: it’s like seeing a dead rose in a sea of live ones.

You’ll focus on the dead one because it shouldn’t be there. Change your perspective and don’t forget about the good things surrounding you.

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

I really do hate being the debbie downer or the “too woke” friend but you HAVE to stand your ground when it comes to your morals. Even when it hits something you love. NOTHING will change if you just let things slide when you have the ability not to. It SUCKS. It sucks SO BAD. But you have to.

yes, gen AI has taken so much from us

but i think it's also important to not get lost in the doom and gloom, and to think about those who started creating to *spite* AI. of how many people finally let themselves become artists to prove that they can

it's a beautiful thing.
thank u for creating

If you were a webcomic artist trying to make the next Berserk, Watchmen, Sin City, Skydoll, Blacksad - basically any acclaimed adult comic you can think of - there are dwindlingly few places you can independently publish that online

Whenever sites come up with new rules like this I thing about how if you were a creator who was making something every bit on the level with a hugely popular and acclaimed series, would you be allowed to share it? Like, if you were sitting on the next Game of Thrones, you couldn’t share that here.
The bad news keep coming

I despise how hard YouTube actively fucks over its users and creators at every turn.

Be sure to check your devices (Yes, plural DEVICE(S), because they’ve made it per device not just account), and make sure this setting is OFF!

It’s potentially hiding thousands of videos from you.

Things are going to be uncertain for some time. And I'm terrified. I wouldn't be asking this if I had other options. I'm accepting donations to help give me a little wiggling room. Any help will be forever appreciated. I'm sorry I didn't tell anyone sooner.

I hope gentleness finds you.

I hope that you encounter or make space where you can experience a bit of tenderness that helps alleviate any weariness you have because you’ve strained under the heavy things in this world.

Even if just for a moment, may something soft be a balm for your aching soul.
