Whenever possible, tip your food delivery person with cash.
This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

Every winter I ragebait my husbean with holiday images of 8 sided snowflakes.
Every spring he ragebaits me with images of easter rabbits with pawpads/button noses.

Some folks don't know the difference between "I'm ignoring the news because I want to pretend its not happening." and "I'm ignoring the news because I need to be able to function without having a depressive episode everytime I go online." and it shows.

I’m looking for horror / dystopian / sci-fi book cover artists!
I’m particularly interested in queer, BIPOC, or disabled artists.
Feel free to drop recommendations, links, examples and so on. I’m not actively commissioning right now, just researching for the (hopefully near) future! #writing #art

The MOMENT someone asks if you can spend YOUR time making art FOR THEM... you are a PROFESSIONAL.
Don't let anyone ELSE tell you that you are not a professional, and don't let them use FAMILY or FRIENDSHIP as a means of not paying you.

Fighting my own brain while trying to get back into things. (cw medical stuff)
The reality is that the tremors I have are never going away. And moreso, over the years they will increase in severity. Its quite possible 20 years from now I will have difficulty just holding things.

friendly reminder that you didn't waste your year. any moments of happiness or comfort. any small accomplishments, they all matter. this has been a really hard year, and simply surviving is something to be proud of.

My overall rule of thumb in life: Avoid people who spend their time tearing others apart/down, find the folks who spend their time building others together/up.
blocking people who have bad takes instead of interacting with them in any way is immensely satisfying
just put it in the bin and then u dont think about it

If you use firefox with adblocks and run Spotify via the web-browser, the adblockers will skip the ads for you!
No subscription needed! Not sure if it works on mobile devices or other countries but I suggest giving it a try!

Cancel your Spotify subscription until the ICE ads stop. There are other streaming options that don’t profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

I want to very gently say something, and I hope nobody will be mad: If somebody on the internet says something that is NOT about politics and NOT about how terrible everything is, it’s a kindness not to reflexively make a comment (in jest or not) that brings it back to those things.

Today on the 19th anniversary of being married to my delightful husbean @tailsteak.bsky.social , the valve on our toilet blew out and almost flooded the bathroom.
Which oddly enough is not the first time our relationship has caused water damaging events. #IfIHadANickel
