Don't forget about the DRM-free Humble Bundle from Tor (with Murderbot, Witch King, and more), benefiting World Center Kitchen. The donation is now at over 58,000. It would be awesome to get it up to $100,000.

Instead of blaming children for their own deaths at the hands of a natural disaster, you could put that energy towards supporting a voting rights organization given that too many people in the south definitely do not have the power you seem to think they do

Somewhere along the way, “Howl’s Moving Castle” became one of my favorite movies. It’s absolutely wondrous and makes me feel safe and bright inside the cage of my body.

Submitted grades a week ago and still haven't managed to do any crossstitching. It's been a hectic first week to the summer break. I have, however, been playing FE3H for the first time and I love it so much!

I can't wait until I have finished grading and have final grades submitted for my classes so that I can get back to my crossstitching and video games.

Mate, if you can't be bothered to make your presentation yourself and fob it off to A.I., I don't feel like it's particularly worth my time listening to it. You didn't care - why should I?

You guys don’t need to try to convince me that any form of AI has merit. It doesn’t. It is boring and half-assed. I am fine getting by with human brain power. If the world nears its end and AI has one hater left, good news! I am still alive.

today's my birthday and it'd be the greatest gift if you could share around the news about my debut graphic novel crowdfunding right now 💛 (or even back it?! wowza)

🌱 www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...
cover art of a graphic novel: an illustration of a woman standing in a forest and looking behind her. we see her through undergrowth. the woman is dressed in a travelling manner with a big backpack, surrounded by lush, mysterious greenery. there's a logo in the bottom left corner that says "a sapphic, post-apocalyptic graphic novel BACK to EARTH". there's a 3d render of an open graphic novel in the upper left corner that shows two women travelling through sights of a post-apocalyptic community. it seems positive, for the most part. two pages of a graphic novel. we see two women cutting off some berries from a shrub as they're talking about thinking they'd never see real vegetation again; about how wrong they were about the apocalypse; about how well they click together. they're very intimate and tender with each other, even in a simple moment like a short break during travel. two pages of a graphic novel. we see two women travelling through sights of a post-apocalyptic community. it seems positive, for the most part. the women are the same characters as on the previous image. we see that there's no working mobile service in this world, but some sort of DIY electricity prevails, as people are working on fixing cyborg arms. there's also a cute dog on a porch. a double-page spread of a graphic novel. a quiet illustration of a ruined, abandoned city, surrounded by greenery of Mother Nature. we see parts of robots scattered in the foreground and overgrown by moss.

I’ve really been struggling to take care of myself. I just want to acknowledge that because we’re made to feel ashamed but it’s a difficult time. If you’re struggling, I want you to know I’m right there with you. We’re gonna figure it out. It’s just gonna be rough for a while.
