All of the extra Weird Lil Guys Alien:Earth is introducing give me the creeps so bad. Like why do these trillionaires *have* to study Eyeball Guy, Giant Alien Tick From Hell, and Space Udder instead of either

Hi, it’s my birthday today and I don’t normally do this but I’d really appreciate some love today. Not to have a sob story but I’ve had Covid for the last week and for the last year it’s not been a good one so if anyone can share my art, my ko-fi or just like my work on any platform, I’d love it. ❤️

Got a ConEd alert telling me to use less energy during the heat wave and this is all I can think about.

Something I think has allowed AI to proliferate, is we have such a societal lack of understanding about how creative works are MADE. People think films are just writing a script and pointing a camera, that CGI animation is clicking a button, that writing and drawing are easy, in born talents...

Traditional and indie authors are flooding #WritersTok with videos of them editing their manuscripts to refute accusations of generative AI use—and bring readers into their very human process.

tbqh it's not even too late to start masking half-assedly, and i mean this sincerely. you don't have to be 100% perfect about masking for it to help yourself and others.
Last repost, but really ALWAYS: It is not too late to start masking again if you've stopped. It is never too late to start. Wearing a good mask (N95 or something else *with a good seal*) in public (transit, stores, offices, healthcare) lowers transmission, and every infection you prevent is a win.

@middimidori.bsky.social is someone I can always talk to about any/everything and the online community she’s cultivated in her Critical Role discord is really something special. I also met my partner there, who I love dearly and don’t know what I’d do without. Love these people so so much ❤️
Tell me about humans who have made your life better recently!

I'll start: I was at a book fest recently, and they did an author talent show but then invited anyone to participate. And this teen decided to (last minute!) perform "The Cask of Amontillado" & when I tell you the audience was ENRAPTURED

i mask for 2 big reasons - i like not being sick, and i like letting other people know they can hang out with me and not worry as much about getting sick/sicker

i also mask for a bunch of small reasons - i didn't feel like wearing makeup, my allergies are excessively bad, etc
Hey look, it’s The Atlantic continuing to marginalize people who don’t want to get infected repeatedly with COVID.

You know, this patronizing story pairs well with new reporting about long-term damage from multiple COVID infections.

The isolation of people who take precautions against COVID has only gotten more intense.

As someone who is still coming to grips with the limitations I have because of my chronic illness, the scene between Wim and KB in this week’s Skeleton Crew hit me hard (in a good way)
