This is not hyperbole. This is not undue hype. @sirosenbaum.bsky.social is creating the the most emotionally affecting graphic novel I've read this year, and everyone should subscribe to @flaminghydra.com to read it.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

THIS IS THE FUCKING PROBLEM. You people will "both sides aren't equal" TO DEFEND SEXUAL PREDATORS. Your "lesser of two evils" IS EVIL. Stop pretending it's okay that our leaders are all fucking rapist war criminals.

You sound like Nazis.

1- billionaires don't pull jail cell slipn'slides, esp if they've prev. managed magic plea deals

2- no one implicated by traffickers' blackmail videos would purposefully risk a dead man switch making copies public by killing the guy

3- dead bodies aren't wheeled out uncovered hours after discovery

A thing that doesn't get brought up enuff, cuz it's terrifying: We still don't know WHY the original 1929 US stock market crash happened. There are theories, but... it just happened, after years of nervous speculation it was gonna happen.

Because the stock market is fucking irrational.

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

okay. so there are often a few dessert recipes that share things (type of dish; fruit) in common but this is really kicked up for fall. just about everything that isn’t pumpkin is apple or pear & one of the variety of “baked fruit w/ starch on top”, to the point where they offer a guide to the types

"Privilege" used to MEAN something in this town. Nowadays, the best you can hope for is unlimited power and influence, and freedom from all consequences. Sure, it's great, but what happened to the JOY?
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

thing about autism is if you work really hard for many years, you can learn through trial-and-error how to navigate social situations and interpersonal connections SO effectively that people don't really believe you're autistic anymore and resent you for not being perfect at nonverbal communication

Clip's brushes are the closest to the real thing in terms of feel that I've ever encountered in a drawing program.
this is the way. also clip studio has ribbon brushes which is like one of the best digital art tools ive ever used on top of the brush engine just generally being better than photoshop's
I did it. After a year of using clip studio for my Patreon rewards and client projects I deleted photoshop after continuous used for the past 20 years (jfc)

Not only was the price insane, the ethics questionable, but it’s such a bloated piece of hardware it was crashing constantly

BILLIONAIRE LIVES MATTER

We just won't really know how MUCH they matter until after they're captured, and we see how much we each get in the redistribution. Some folks are gonna matter more than others. They've taught us that our whole fucking lives.

sometimes it will just hit me that over a million americans died from covid in a short period of time and we never had a national mourning. we never collectively grieved. we never honored the dead. this feels like a failure
