Feel like, as a society, we might consider moving Halloween to the last Friday in October (observed.) Vibes truly immaculate tonight.

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

I don't know man, but I think you're doing great. Shit is really tough right now on so many fronts. I'm not saying it'll get easier or better anytime soon. I have no idea. But being creative, writing, drawing, whatever, is no small thing. And taking joy in those things is never a waste of time.

Queers and allies.

1) support trans kids
2) get cookies
3) profit.

Let's make this kid a cookie legend.

Trying to imagine what it'd take for me to yell at a server. Like if I ordered an omelette and they brought me a bowl of rats? But I'd probably still just be like "I'm sorry, you seem to have brought me someone else's bowl of rats."

Don't forget: it's almost time to stop writing 2024 on forms and instead drawing a picture of a skull with blood pouring from its eye sockets

think seeing bram stoker's dracula at an early age might have sown some unrealistic assumptions about how many lovers would end up renouncing god for me

It made me physically ill following updates from the Supreme Court today. Sending love to trans people, trans kids especially, and their families because… whew. Enduring this kind of hostility is an experience us cisgender will never fully understand.

Genuinely think anyone can “git gud” at any creative craft they are interested in. If we wanted to actually “democratize” art we would invest in housing, healthcare, food and education as human rights. All GenAI does is make people even more financially precarious and less able to pursue a passion
I think a bit of the "AI is democratizing art" argument is trying to avoid the ugly truth that to get good at anything you have to do a lot of it. I grew up "knowing" I was a good writer, but I really wasn't until about 700k words, and it took reading hours of scripts to really have a voice

Having a cat means at least once a week you get sick with worry wondering where the fuck it is and did it get outside somehow because you haven’t seen it in hours but then it comes out of its hidey-hole, stretching and blinking like nothing in the world is wrong

Whoops! My hand slipped and I added in a healthy dash of "the government doesn't care about you, you're just a body in the mountain of bodies that makes up the nonstop machine of society so that the top few don't have to lift a finger to do anything" to my book again 😅

Hello all: It is with a heavy heart that I remove my Starter Pack of "Trustworthy Mesopotamian Copper Ingot Merchants Within the City-State of Ur."

I have been informed about some pretty unfortunate oversights on my part and ultimately platformed some creators who should not have been platformed.

If you think someone should 'write a book without politics' what you really mean is: write a book that has the politics in it that I approve of, so I will not recognise them as politics. Same goes for morals, or values, or religion.

Writing is intrinsically political & moral - one way, or the other

Forcing so many of us to agree with Joe Rogan is only one of Vance’s crimes, but it’s one of the most annoying.
Rogan: Roe was the law of the land and all of a sudden that had been taken away and you have these men trying to dictate what women can and cannot do with their bodies

Vance: Yeah, yeah... but you have women who go too far and try to celebrate it

Rogan: Very few do that
