Let's fix the passive voice and the euphemism:

"[Donald] Trump 'spent' hours with [underage female] [VICTIM][of sex trafficking] at [notorious underage female sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein's] house."

Fossil eggshells contain radioactive minerals that can be used to tell how long ago those eggs were buried, a way to determine the ages of fossil sites that lack volcanic rocks. I’ll tell you more at NatGeo. 🧪

NHS Sussex are forcibly detransitioning trans people. These patients need full restoration of their healthcare, and everyone involved in doing this needs to be sacked.

"Laura fears all will be lost if ICB Sussex forces her child off the medication.

If ICB Sussex get their own way in a matter of weeks and they force detransition, Olive may well take her life."

I guess my point is this:

If you run events and you charge people a huge whack of change for a vendor table, you ought to do even the smallest due diligence to help the people who pay you for them earn back their investment.

Incidentally this is why it's so devastating when a convention fucks up dealer table placement / layout, doesn't advertise or promote the existence or whereabouts of the attending indie creators, etc.

We're on shoestring budgets, and failing to break even can ruin us.
poopraven.bsky.social AK Faulkner @ MCM Birmingham WB-3 @poopraven.bsky.social · 11d
So many of us can only afford to do conventions because we know someone nearby who will let us crash on their couch, or we're banding together to break up the cost of a rental apartment / hotel room.

I've never worked so hard in my life to stand absolutely still.
fjbarb.bsky.social Frank J. Barbiere @fjbarb.bsky.social · 13d
Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are staring up at an unseen moth sitting on their ceiling. Green: Hey ceiling moth, are you going to start paying rent? Blue raises an eyebrow in doubt as the ceiling moth speaks. Ceiling moth: I already gave you my firstborn. Blue: What's that supposed to mean? Blue and Green look at each other in concern as the moth replies cheerily. Ceiling moth: Check your pantry. Opening the pantry door, Blue and Green draw back in shock and disgust as they are partially obscured by an overwhelming cloud of flour moths that pours out.
