venusian (diabolical) - Creator-first brand strategist and marketing - formerly ubisoft - EGL ✨fashun✨model and stylist - #A11y - AKA Daisy! 🌼 (joy/ful)
got sucked into a manic crafting black hole today and did about half of my wig today. i am god again. my girlfriend and i have also decided to carry unsettlingly realistic photos of each other’s pony on our person - mine in a keychain misprint that says “I 💕 my girlfreind” and theirs in their wallet
i sewed the hems and elastic channels in place today, as well as my tiny lil ears, therefore i am a god and nothing will ever stop me
think faux fur, tulle, lace trim, box pleats, beads, bows - it’s gonna be NUTS lol

Foundational figure in PC games. One of those load-bearing creatives where things would look very different for entire genres if she wasn’t around. Please help her out

What a privilege it is to be a younger disabled person in a community shaped by Alice Wong. Rest in peace, Alice.

almost comical that the parents that refused to even say hello or thank you to me the last time i paid for their daughter to see them wanted me to do it again. and of course they’re making my partner deliver that request to me, the partner their family refuses to meet.
this is to say: parents, it is actually incredibly crappy to pretend your child’s partner(s) don’t exist and you do not want to interact with said partner when communication actually needs to happen for safety and wellbeing. that’s really conditional love and *really awful* for everyone involved

I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed.

Here are the words she left behind:

The folks at GDC have reached out to me about heading up a narrative portfolio review workshop. Are you planning on going to GDC this year and would be down to review some portfolios? HMU!

NEW — I spoke to DoorDash about the White House claiming the company's report shows "inflation has been tamed" and whether that's an interpretation one should make. An economist also weighed in, pointing out dictatorships use data obfuscation as a tool, and right now they're "grasping at straws."
WH claims 'inflation tamed,' per DoorDash stats. Company says that's not in its report.
It comes the same week we learned the WH would likely not release key economic reports for October.

i am the most evil mom: i left gorgonzola sleeping on my bed next to the window without waking him before I left for work. now he is crying and looking for me, yelling at every door in sight. this sweet dippy boy’s worst enemy in life is a closed door.

I've been professionally critiquing and reporting on accessibility and disability for over six years. So how do you quantify what's happened in this industry since 2020? Read my latest essay for @polygon.com here:

The PS5 and Series X era promised inclusion, but the reality is more complicated
After five years covering PlayStation and Xbox, I've never felt more tested as a disabled player

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
