Oh yeah - Totally escaped me that Squidge.org is officially 32 years old this month! While our origins began in 1992, it wasn't official until we registered the domain in September, 1994. Here's to many more years in fandom!

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

RIP Dolly Parton. What she used her wealth and platform to do for children should be a model to anyone with the means to do so.

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸

Fred Rogers and Dolly Parton found in religion a torch to guide them on the path of righteousness. They never sought to use it to set anyone else on fire. That’s all any reasonable person could ask of another.

What Dolly taught us is that it is in fact possible to be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams of avarice but still be a fundamentally good person with a strong moral compass, and the only reason more rich people aren't like that is because they don't want to be.

"lol i don't understand celebrity worship they're just people" You rube. You simple child of the land. Dolly Parton wasn't just a celebrity. She did more material good in her life, with her own money, than anyone we literally elect to serve us.

It can be difficult to tell fact from propaganda, especially when they take a real fact/statistic and spin it for their own needs. So keep practicing those media literacy skills and do your own research. (Avoid ChatGPT; you know it hallucinates.) #journalism #politics #uspolitics

The kind of fandom I get: - learning a lot about it. - geeking out with fellow fans about it. - making things inspired by it. - enthusing about it to others. The kind of fandom I don't get: - yelling at people who don't like it. - making demands of people involved in making the things you love.

Good news that should have been brought up a few months back, but because things were so crazy we didn't get a chance: FenRecs.com is back! If you were part of FenRecs.com, you'll know that we went down in mid January due to our old service provider going out of business.

Two very updates for Squidge Images. The first update is we have opened up signup access for Squidge Images. Instead of having to leave us a ticket for an image hosting account, we have decided that it's been long enough, and the folks who were abusing image hosting have most likely moved on. So all that is done. Second, and most important, Squidge Image Hosting

Another reminder: - meds - hydrate - eat something - turn off autoplay of video/gifs if you haven't already - you don't have to watch the videos - stay safe, be smart - sometimes it's good to not post (or read) - shutting the fuck up is a valid strategy at times
