Hmm, looks like a big windstorm on Christmas Eve is shaping up. That'll probably knock out the power. >.>

Bringing back Limewire to illegally rip copies of reporting suppressed by the government is definitely some cyberpunk shit

Israel admitted it bombed a wedding in Gaza and killed 7 but nobody in the UK or Australia or anywhere else will clamor to ban the phrase "Israel has a right to defend itself"— again I have to wonder why.

I did not know this and I think this is a very interesting little nugget of knowing! Thanks, Merriam-Webster!
‘Soup’ was a slang term for drugs that were injected into a horse to make it run faster.
A racehorse that was on PEDs was said to be ‘souped up.’
We now use the term to refer to anything that is enhanced.

No similarity is 1-1, but I bet if you go back ~60 years to the right-wing freak out about Black characters appearing (as normal people not caricatures) in children’s stories, it’s probably pretty identical to the right-wing freak out about trans characters appearing in children’s stories

Making art is not all joy and fungus reanimated bunnies! That’s okay. That’s normal. That’s part of why art is important and also why artists and writers need to be paid for their work. If you keep dragging yourself back even when it’s hard, you’re doing fine.

Been pretty productive today. Got everything I wanted to get done done, and I still have a bit of time for a work out.

In other news, I'm still digging around for alternate ways to get Clip Studio running again, and a lot of people are like "just use Krita" but every pro artist trying to install Clip Studio agrees that Krita just doesn't do what they need it to do.
Clip Studio is a art BEAST. You don't understand!

Okie dokie. The second portion of the veggie broth batch is in the freezer (I freeze 'em in silicone molds so I can just grab a little puck of broth as needed), the bone broth is cooling, and I did a water change on the fish tank. Phantom had his water change + meds yesterday.

Digital Nightmare really is the perfect album. I heard a tiny chunk of Ladybug a little while ago and I immediately needed to listen to the whole album (and not just Ladybug). #twrp
