hey man, I hope you keep going. I hope you find some kind of thing to latch onto if you need that, to hang onto. I hope you stick around to find it. Do what you've got to do, but please, stick around in this world. do not let anyone else win. you're worth it. I promise you are, bro.
Same sentiment but for "promotional artwork".
Again, you made a whole-ass video game. That's an incredible amount of work, but I see what's clearly gen AI promo art or screens and I'm out.
Creative folks, don't underestimate how much using AI "tools" makes your *actual work* look suspect. π

This dude is such a diet republican liberal. Idk why people are losing their minds over how we HAVE to vote for him when we haven't even gotten to the primaries yet.
i often wish i wasn't bound to the confines of having to view all my friends' art through a tiny phone screen but instead how they would ideally want to display it
what i'm saying is i want to walk into an art museum and see a 20ft tall wolgraha painting

How to win in November

Trans rights are human rights. Their existence causes no harm and their deserving of dignity is not a debate.
If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

If you're a trans person, especially a trans woman, please log off for the night and go read a book, play a game, do anything else. If you needa vent reach out to someone privately! Online is gonna make u spiral. Give it a night, gather your thoughts, and regroup when you have the stamina!
This is it. Way past time for everyone in this country - literally everyone - to find practical ways to support trans people and immigrants, this regime's primary targets.
Starting right now, find something practical to do to actually help people.
Everyone here is a victim of the depraved BBC's failure to act
I really appreciate this TikToker with Tourette syndrome, Shay, for taking the time to educate so many of us (including me) about her disability and coprolalia in light of what happened at the BAFTAs with John Davidson when Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage.
I learned a lot.

A second surgeon looked over Maxβs imaging and theyβre strongly recommending an ultrasound. A dear friend has donated half of the $1k needed for that (this is the cost from the low cost clinic) so weβre still trying to raise funds for the rest and hisβ
The surgeon needs to take a closer look at Maxs X-rays as he may need follow up imaging.
Reminder: under no circumstance should you give discord your ID.
It is gonna -suck- trying to set up alternatives, and this whole fiasco is going to damage communities, but you CANNOT give them your info
His food is QUITE expensive (the wet food portion alone is almost $85) and I'm not sure if he's going to need any labs or future xrays so any continuing shares and donations are appreciated as is your patience while I bump his GFM at least once a week.
is going on a prescribed urinary care diet to help keep his body healthy and as pain free as possible. We have a follow up in a month to check on his progress. At this point we're just keeping him as cozy as possible & when he starts to have more bad days than good we'll look at end of life care.

Update on Max (TW for sensitive topics)
----
Max is on palliative/hospice care from here going forward. He has a mass which they're 95% sure is a tumor in his abdomen & his prognosis is not good.
He's okay right now and...
I don't think many cis people realize how much...
1) Blatant transphobia and harassment by the "you have to support Newsom" crowd.
2) UK tearing apart trans rights under a centrist/liberal gov.
3) Blue state govs refusing to enforce trans protections.
Is reshaping how we see liberals and Dems.
I truly wish the βblue no matter whoβ contingent would just shut up until after the primary and let people who want a better candidate call for one in peace instead of screaming about how we all need to slobber daddy newsomβs hog before heβs declared or else weβre somehow fascist.
